l THE MEIQCUIQY l Loraine Raether Much can be said about Tina , She was valedictorian and vice'president of the senior class. Her excellent work in shorthand and typing was known even to those unknown to her. Her secretary's E is ample proof of her ability. Tina's smile will live long in our memories. Lambert Rapp Lambert plans to study at the University of Wisconsin to be a doctor. At Riverside he was very active in our music depart- ment, playing in the band, or- chestra, and the Minstrel Show band. Lambie was also the excellent piano player on the community singing programs of the school. Music soothes the savage soul. Edward Reiss Eddie was one of those fel' lows whom everyone knew. As cheerleader Eddie did his best to make the cheers ring out for good old E. D. H. S. Besides being a cheerleader, he also went out for football. As an en' thusiastic member of Shovel Club he appeared as one of those dark minstrel men. Lynn Roberts Lynn was rather quiet. He spent much of his time devel' oping himself for the cross- country team on which he was an active member. Shovel Club claimed Lynn as one of its workers, and he also belonged to the Student Board. It is his ambition to go out into the bus- iness world. We wish him much success. Louise Sanders Lou caused somewhat of a sensation among the members of the stage crew, when she be' came its first wardrobe mistress. She was kept busy helping the various clubs. Lou plans to continue her work at State Teachers' College, specializing in library work. Esther Schlossman Schlossy was one of the most active seniors. She seemed to go everywhere and take part in everything. She certainly was splendid in our Pigftail Day program. Her activity in G.A.A. showed what she could do along in athletics, and Allen Club also held her interest. Page Eighlrrrz Eleanor Schwerm Elinor is characterized by her nickname, Happy , and by that you may see that she was very popular among her friends. Happy was a Student Board monitor in her assembly and also was member of Camarad' eric. Happy's smile was con' tagious, and one could not re- sist her cheery personality. Clark Sherman curly hair was the source of much envy on the part of certain girls who longed for the same type of curly hair which he tried to keep down. Because of his ambition to be a journalist, Bud plans to attend Marquette, and we wish him much luck in that field. iiBudvSn Carl Siefert Carl needs no introduction. Captain of our football team, he led not only the team to glory but himself also. To prove this, he was elected president of his class, and president of Tuxis HifY. May you prove as successful in engineering at Wisconsin as you did here, Carl. Marvin Simon Marv was one of the most popular fellows around East. Shovel Club, Orient, and Mer' cury monitor were among his activitiesg he was also an ardent supporter of the Older Boy's Organization. Marvin was an able talker and should be a good lawyer. Marquette will be his future address. Florence Stivers To Florence's many friends her happy smile recalls the memory of a true friend-one whom they enjoyed knowing and by whose companionship they pronted. She was a mem- ber of Shovel, Cam, and Science Clubs, and she plans to continue her work at Downer College. Charlotte Thierfelcler Sharley , in her work in Household Arts, showed a bud' ding interest in the career of a housefwife. It was surprising to learn that she did not expect to apply her new knowledge, but planned to attend Carroll Col' lege to study journalism. Her choice is well chosen, and she should do very well.

l Tl-IE MEIQCUIQY I Olive Lear Olive is remembered for her sweetness and lovely disposition. She was active in G.A.A., Shovel, Cam, and Household Arts Clubs, helping with the Merc and the Student Board. Ollie's many friends at River' side and everyone else who knew her have a good word to say for her. Anita Lindl Anita was one of those un' usual people who entertained us in the morning. She was pop' ular among those with whom she associated. One of her de- sires is to visit Vienna to further her musical career shall we say? Another is to be a stenof grapher. Let us hope that both come true. Dean Loye Rinks spent most of his spare time in pursuit of sports. He played football and basket' ball, earning his UE in these sports. In the spring he played tennis and was secretary of the Tennis Club. Well liked by everyone, he was once president of Tuxis Hi'Yi. We will all miss his laugh. John Mlinar There are few fellows who took as much interest in foot- ball and track as Johnny did. There wasn't a season that went by without seeing that blond fellow out on the cinders or the gridiron. John was one of the fortunate fellows who earned a B team letter. Success to you, john! Patricia Mulroy Pat , as she is remembered, is outstanding for her pleasing personality and pleasant smile. It was a pleasure to see her in the halls, always cheerful and radiant. It is her ambition to be a secretary. Pat was active in Camaraderie, Shovel, House- hold Arts, and Art Club. Russell Nicks Will any of us forget East's championship team of 1933? Russ was one of the team that put the victory banner up every Monday morning. He won the school championship in golf. Besides this he was a Science Club leader, and was able to devote some time to that club. We know Russ will make an ex- cellent physical director. Sebastian Ninfo Almost anyone who was conf nected with the 1935 Minstrel Show will be glad to tell you of the able job Sebastian did as business manager. He intends to become an accountant, and we know he will be good. Charley fwe call him, was a member of the junior class foot' ball team. Ralph ofnk Ralph Orlik, a fellow of whom Riverside is justly proud, plans to become an architect. He made numerous friends about school. Ralph was better known to most of us as Curly . His favorite sports are basket' ball and tennis, in which he took part at school. We feel confident of his success. Charles Pasch Charley gained much recogf nition as a football star during his junior and senior years. However, he earned a track E when a sophomore. Besides being active in other sports at school, he was president of Krhenzlein Hi-Y and vicefpresi- dent of his sophomore class. Roy Perschbacher Roy was such a busy man that he could not sacrifice his time for school activities. He is intending to study business at the University of Wisconsin Ex- tension. Business is an exceed- ingly Hne course. The world needs good business men, and Roy is well fitted for that purpose. Carl Quast A quiet fellow who could bear the brunt of a joke and still keep his sense of humor is a person who is well liked by everyone. just such a person was Carl. While at Riverside he devoted some of his leisure time to two clubs-Shovel and Art Clubs. The business world is Carl's aim. John Petermann We hope that johnny will be able to carry on his ability in crossecountry and track at Marqtiette where he intends to study Engineering. That course is far from easy, but he ought to do very well. Good things come in small packages and that exemplifies .lohnny . Page Sm'4'ntrr'n

l Tl-IE MEIQCUIQY I Robert Tinker Bob was one of those athf letically minded fellows whose time was completely taken up with the sport life at school. He participated in practically all of our sports. He began play' ing football on the freshman team and ended his athletic career by playing on the varsity. Renata Turk Renata was a quiet girl who did go about school rather un- observed, but in her own way. To those who really did become acquainted with her, she proved a real friend. Renata did her best and was successful in all she did. We know you will go far, because of this, Renata. Dorothy Urbanek Dot , as she was known about school, devoted most of her spare time to participation in athletics. We are reminded of her part of the championship volleyball team. In order to promote these interests, she plans to go to Indianapolis, where she will study physical education. Q ,fr ,f ' i fit. .3 i Lois Weber Everybody knew Susie . While she served on the library staff, she was helpful and toler' ant with all of us. Lois was an enthusiastic member of House' hold Arts Club and Cam . From her work in Household Arts, we expect that Lois will make an excellent dietician. Thomas Woods Tom found himself addicted to the -mysteries of scienceq hence he became an ardent Scif ence Club member. Through his four years of high school this unusual interest created for him a large number of friends. Tom has gone to the Univer- sity of Wisconsin to study forestry. Viola Zimmerman Vi's outstanding interest was music. She was in many programs given by the Chorus and A'Capella Choir. The Thanksgiving Contatas W e r e only a part of those programs in which she took part. How' ever, it seems Viola is going to forsake music and take up secretarial work. Bemice Benz Bernice was a member of G.A.A., Shovel, Cam, and a Student Board monitor. She helped very efficientf ly in the cafeteria. In 1934 she played on the championship volley' ball team. Her ambition is to be- come a secretary, after attending business college. Elmyra Bemdt Myra was a little shy in her ways around Riverside. The speech class will remember her as presi- dent of the class parliamentary club and her able assistance when there was typing to do. While at school she was very much interested in junior and senior choirs. Gertrude Bishop Many Riversiders remember that captivating voice which they heard near the cafeteria before school and between classes. Needless to say, it belonged to Gertrude Bishop, another loyal student whose ambi- tions after graduation will lead her to stenography as a profession. Dorothy Bleier Dot was one of our Riverside girls who had just lots of pep. Whether it was at a football game or school, you could see her in the midst of it all, having the most fun. We need many active people like that, and Dorothy surely does an' swer the requirements. Anna Bogadi Beany was one of Riverside's most charming graduates. A mem' ber of Camaraderie and Shovel, she had many friends throughout the school. Her athletic inclinaf tions led her to join G.A.A. Chorus also claimed her attention. She certainly ought to make a cheerful nurse. Elfwood Braatz Dick was not only a particif pant in football and track at school, but also outside of school. Al' though not active in it, he was in' terested in dramatics. Dick plans to attend Wisconsin and take a course in agriculture. We believe he will be as successful there as here. Frank Busalacchi VVe shall miss Bussie and his ready smile. He served as an able football manager in our busy season in the push towards the champion' ship. A heart full of vitality beats behind his manager's NE . Vera Couch Camaraderie was the big sister club for Rae , who was best known in her own circle of imme' diate friends as a sort of quiet, dilif gent worker. Vera, because of this excellent trait, will become a very efficient secretary. Lorraine Dassow Lorraine will be remembered as an efficient student in the commerf cial work. Her good sportsman- ship and kindness won her a place with those she associated with. Lor' raine was a member of German Club and Camaraderie while she attended Riverside. Lilyan deVoursney Here was a girl of rare humor. Every minute that one spent with her was filled with her Diamond Lil and other impersonations. Lilyan was very active in Cue, Cam' araderie, Shovel, and Allen Clubs. William Eckert The halls of fame of Riverside may echo with this name in the future. Bill was intensely inter' ested in science, radio, and engin' eering. The vocation of chemical engineering requires a great deal of long and hard study, we know. He will take such a course at Marquette. Robert Ehr Those blond curls caused many feminine hearts to skip a beat. Bob was one of the best known fellows who have passed through our doors. Although very busy, he found time to use his study periods for the Older Boys' duties. Vv'e wish you the utmost success in the future. Page Nineteen
