WILLIAM HOLTER The Merriman Five and Ter. poker club had to hold its meetings without Bill occasionally this year when he stayed home to feed the baby. His membership in the club is justified, however, if one classifies it as outside work on his economics major. Such indoor sports are not the only interests Bill cultivated in college; he also went out for rifle, golf and football. He is another ex- president of Merriman who comes from Chippewa Falls. During the war he served in the infantry. GENEVIEVE HORSFORD President of Harwood sorority, president of the Women's Self Government Association, vice-president of the senior class, and Woman of the Month for September— that's the record of ' Gen's senior year. The last honor was fpr her work in orientation week at the beginning of the year, but her good deeds for the new freshmen were just an indication of her plans for the rest of the year. As a matter of fact, Gen has helped many a bewildered frosh in her work as counselor in the dorms. She hails from Montezuma, Iowa, and has a major in psychology. DAVID HUMPHREY After Christmas Dave came back to school with his little southern bride to show her the campus. It seemed to indicate that he served his infantry time quite profitably. An old Smith man, Dave served at times ds vice-presi- dent and treasurer for the frat. He joined the ranks cf the choir and sang with it almost all the years that he was in school. His home was formerly in Wausau, and scholastically Dave has concentrated on the economic situation. ROBERTA JACKSON Bert has been commonly called a brain for her consistently high scholastic averages, whether in her major course of German or any other subjects, and her membership in Phi Alpha proves that we were justified in the use of the tag. Pi Delta Epsilon also claimed Roberta's talents and she joined the Women's Athletic Association. Her talent in art was obvious in the deco- rations of many parties and in the backdrops for the Ver-Adest show. A member o: Porkhurst, she comes from Waukegan, Illinois. Page

CARL FRANK Carl came out of the army air corps and back to Ripon to swing easily into college life again. He began by serving as manager of the football team and joining the college choir. When Ver-Adest went on stage, Carl was right behind the scenes keeping track of the spots and props. In his mere serious moments he completed his chemistry major. Carl's home, and incidentally his wife, are in Ripon, but he came from Milwaukee. When he wants to see the boys, Carl goes to Smith. RICHARD FRIEDMAN Rich came from Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin, to be- come an English major. He joined Merriman fra- ternity and upon his return from tho army air corps, become its capable president. His appreciative frat brothers assign him the dubious honors of being the last man to get a date for ary party and the last man in the house on any night of the week. This must have come about recently, however because in his first years Rich was on both the football and basketball teams. He also nailed down a berth in the bass section of the choir. SHERWOOD HAAG Woody has crowded many activities into his Ripon career. A Mathematics major, husband and proud father, Cadet Captain of Co. B are all to be listed on the asset side. Last year he helped reorganize Tracy, as its president. Although living with the boys at West, Woody commutes, often, to see his wife and baby son. at Beaver Dam. The Tracy boys will remember the multitude of urgent'' phone calls for “Woody, last year, at all hours of the night, at the birth of his son. DAVID HARGRAVE Dave married a Ripon coed and in that way kept his life centered in the town of Ripon. where his family lived. During his first two years at school ho played in the bond and became associated with the West Hall crowd. At one time Dave sang with the carefully selected group known as the Madrigalists. West men still remember the parties Dave and Sally gave when they lived at their cottage at Green Lake, last spring. Soci- ology has been Dave's major subject, but now runs a poor second to his baby son. U Page 28

RICHARD KATE Dick graduated in the middle of the year and took off for graduate school immediately to become a lawyer; this gives him a head start over the rest of the class. While at Ripon he made economics his major. No one had time to forget him despite his early departure, for Dick returned often to see his friends, including his Evans frat brothers, and to have a round with the boys. In his spare time Dick gave the debate team some good support. His home town is Racine, and durina the bia blow Dick sweated it out with the infantry. HARRIET KETCHPAW Ketch began her freshman days as president of her dormitory. She joined the Women's Athletic Associ- ation at that time, holding her membership for four years. Later she served as Harwood's secretary and this year as its rushing chairman lnWsoror;u' Council representative. During her senior year Ketch played in the band. A speech and psychology major, she is also one of the best sports on the campus. Ketch comes from Bloomer, Wisconsin. DOROTHY LALIS Dody finished at Ripon last January and returned to Fend du Lac, but she came back frequently to visit with her Harwood sorority sisters. While here, Dorothy majored in English and used her ability as Harwood's secretary. For a short time she attended the University of Wisconsin, but Ripon seemed to be her first love. Quiet and attractive she's nice people ' to have around. BARBARA LARSEN After two years at North Park College in Chicago, where she lives, Barb decided to follow in her broth- er's footsteps and come to Ripon to finish her education. She joined the Lyle girls shortly after her arrival and participated in enough of their sperts contests to become a member of the Women’s Athletic Association. Barbara, who is a Spanish major, maintained a high grade aver- age and was elected to Phi Alpha honor society. She recently added Ver-Adest to her list of extra-curricular activities. Page 30
