THE MIRRGR john De Fazio General Course Red Cross, Z, 3, 43 A. A., 3, 43 Wrestling Manager, 4, Track Maiiager, 4. Able and always willing. It just seems that every school has some fellows that do all the really tough work. Yes, I mean that Iohnny', is one of those-the ideal manager. His work is never done. Coupled with the fact that 'tJohnny stands high on the Honor Roll and that he has done splendid work as a manager, we have come to the conclusion that he is a pretty swell guy. VVhen he is around the other boys in front of the school, Ujohnny' has very little to say, unless it is about equipment. The future is sure to hold a bright place for this hard worker and this quiet likable boy. Good luck, Johnny Roland De Luca Scientific Course ' VVrestling, 15 A. A., 3, 4, Ir. Red Cross, 1, 2, 3, 4. There could be no great ones were there no little ones. Ronald is one of the smaller members of our class, but his size has nothing to do with his capability. For when he really wants to get down to work, he can, and can. produce a good recitation. Piccolo is one of those lads' who is responsible for the delivery of the daily paper. He can be seen any evening after school walking down the street, 'twhistling while he Works. Pickie'sl' favorite pastime is discussing anything from football to politics with t'Bennett' and Biggie. However, his abilities are not confined to conversation alone, for he can hold his own in any game he plays. He is also an angler of no mean repute. Pickie's future Alma Mater, he says, is going to be the University of Alabama. We wish him the best of luck in his studies there and in anything else he plans to do. Ronald Dennison General Course Red Cross, 1, 2, 33 A. A., 3, 4. For solitude sometimes is best society. So thinks Ronald, whom we see all by himself the majority of the time. He seems very shy and reserved and talks very little around school. Rolf, was one of the regular attendants at the basketball. and football games, although his voice was never heard above the rest of us. He likes outdoor activities better than indoor ones. In appearance Dennie is rather tall, with gray eyes and neat dark hair. ' Ronald doesn't expect to go on to school. Next year will probably find him driving a bread truck around town. Best wishes, Ronald. Twenty-tlzree

THE MIRRGR --e , Norman james Curry General Course Red Cross, 1, 2, 3, 45 A. A., 2, 3, 4, Football, 3, 4, VVrestling, 4. Laugh and the world laughs with you. Curry is one of the most irresistable males in the class of '38. His ready smile, blond hair, and blue eyes class him among the hand- some. Curry is an all around Hman with no little ability in football, wrestling, and swimming. Curry also possesses personality in the nth degree. He is the type of person in whom you wish to confide your deepest secrets. Curry is a constant companion of Mirth. He appreciates a good joke, even when it is on himself. Besides being attractive, he is always neatness personified. Curry is not the worrying kind. If he sees trouble coming his way, he laughs and trouble flies over his head. t'Curry informs us that his plans for the future are undecided. i We wish you good luck from the bottom of our hearts Curry Vivian Curry General Course A. A., 2, 3, 4g Red Cross, 1, 2, 3, 43 Girls' Glee Club, 3, 4, Tri-Hi-Y, 45 Hulda of Holland, 35 Science Club, 25 Baccalaureate Service, 35 Commencement Program, 33 Commercial Club, 3, 4. And a form of airy grace. If you hear a girl talking to someone about dancing, that's prob- ably Curry. For Curry's greatest delight is found in this ecstacy. Vivian seems to be a care-free person. She is a girl who does not believe in worryg as a matter of fact, she thinks singing and laughing will banish all traits of sorrow and care. Vivian will never be lacking in friends, for her pleasing counten- ance is sure to win many. She has numerous friends and is very seldom by herself, if at all. ' Whatever path you may select for the next year, Vivian, our thoughts will follow you. Grace Davis Commercial Course Freshman Tri-Hi-Yg Commercial Club, 3, 4 g Mirror Board, 3, 45 A. A., 2, 3, 4, Jr. Red Cross, 2, 3, 4. p Stubborn labor conquers eilerytliingf' In an unassuming way, Grace has rmade many friends. She is friendly and cooperative with everyone, sometimes to a fault. Gracie, with her contagious smile, can be seen almost every day, carrying an armful of books or papers on her way to the typing room or Room 4. Davis is ambitious and industrious in achieving her aims. Her willingness to work should take her far. As yet Grace has no definite plans for the future. Good luck, Davis! Twenty-two

THE MIRROR Harold F. Divelbiss Commercial Course A. A., 1, 2, 3, 4, Red Cross, 1, 3, 4, Hi-Y, 3, 4, Press Club, 3, 45 Sports Editor of Hi-Lights, 4, Interclass Mushball, 2, 3, Interclass Basket- ball, 1, Interclass Baseball, 3. A day for toil, an hour for sport. That old man hobbling through the halls lately is really not old. It is just our friend, Pete. Pete has been suffering from a leg injury from a recent basketball encounter at Rossiter, and the method he uses to get about reminds one of an enfeebled, old man. No offence Pete, for we wish you a speedy recovery. Pete is very active in Press Club work. By his ability and work, Pete as the Sports Editor of the H11-Lights, has contributed greatly to the success of the Hi-Lights this year. Sports hold a deep fascination for Pete, and hardly a thing happens in the field of sports that Pete cannot tell you about. Therefore, Pete's favorite pastime is following sports in general, baseball and football in particular. Pete is uncertain as to what he will be doing next year, but we wish him success. Catherine Ellen Dock Commercial Course Red Cross, 1, 2, 3, 4, A.

Kae hopes to become somebody's stenogf' Lucky somebody. Good luck and best wishes, Kae. Twenty- f our 1 Helen Ruth Dunmire General Course Red Cross, 3, 4, A. A., 3, 4, Girls' Glee Club, 4, Double Quartette for Forensic League, 4, t'Please Do Not Pick the Flowers, 4. A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance. Helen is that happy young lass who may be seen frequently ambling around the streets or in the school halls with Jimmy and Jane. One look at her would give the impression that she is a carefree, lighthearted person, who has absolutely nothing in mind but to laugh and have a good time. However, we know that behind that cherry countenance lies a vein of seriousness, which is sometimes given a chance to show itself. Helen is fond of sports, dancing, parties, and a general good time. Never does she miss a game, or pass up a chance to be in on some fun. Although, as yet, Helen is entirely undecided as to where the course of her future life may lead, we are sure that she will always be blessed with congenial companions.
