THE MEIQCUIQY l Wymmi Bergner Doc with his dissecting frogs in tainly seems to be right path for his time at East was tween Orient, the aptitude for biology cerf treading the career. His divided be- band, HifY, and the Older Boys' Organizaf tion. You have a good start, Doc g keep up the pace at Marquette. Mary Berry It would be impossible in this small space to list all the activif ties in which Mary participated. She can be remembered for tal- ent in dramatics, her supreme ability in athletics, serving as president of G.A.A. and secref tary of Student Athletic Council, and her good work as poetry editor of the Mercury. Joe Berry Who in Riverside does not know Joe, our 1933 prom king, most sought after young man! His dramatic ventures include the lead in Seven Keys to Baldpaten, the Romantic Duke in Twelfth Night , and the amusing Rasputin of Minstrel Show fame. Cue will miss its president, Joe. Rowland Bird Rowland hails from the far, far West and intends to return there, as he plans to attend Pasadena College. During his time here, he took an interest in football and Science Club, al' though he wishes to be a jour' nalist. It is too bad we have not had more of his writings. Bemice Birenbaum Bernie , a cheerful and in' telligent member of the senior class, participated in Camaradf erie, Shovel, G.A.A., Household Arts, and Allen Clubs. She also served on the Student Board and the championship volleyball team. Bernice plans to continue her studies at Spencerian College. Eleanore Blasczyk Eleanore was one person whom anyone could and did admire. Her personality made her that way. Volleyball at G.A.A., Camaraderie, and Household Arts Club claimed the little leisf ure time she had. We feel sure any employer will profit having Eleanore as a stenographer. Page Tfwcnly-ffwo Jane Frances Bloomer Jane Frances, whose ambition is to become a school teacher, plans to study for her vocation at the Milwaukee State Teach' er's College. While at River' side, she was a member of Cue Club, Camaraderie and Allen Club, and was one of the girls who took care of the infirmary. We wish her good luck. Jeanette Botsch Yes, you probably know Jeanette. She was one of the office girls, and though you may not know her bv name, you associate her with a friendly smile. From stenography, Jean' ette's interests range to House' hold Arts. We must say that is a broad expanse of interests. - - Rogers Blaisdell A big broad grin and a ready pun, that was Wassy . When he wasn't making mischief, he was doing something really worth while, such as acting as Merc Monitor and belonging to the Older Boys' Organization, Shovel, and Radio Clubs. Mar' quette University will be his future school. James Bowler Jimmy's boyish grin and cheerful personality made our troubles seem to vanish. His activities at Riverside were Shovel Club, Older Boys' Or' ganization, and in the line of sports he was active in football, tennis, and swimming. Car- negie is Jim's goal. ' Chester Bouton In Riverside, Chester's inter' ests were divided between de- bating and musical activities. He was the vice-president of Orient and was alternate in the intersociety debate. We feel that Chester must have bene- fitted by this extra work because he put so much into it. Janet Louise Bretz The JuniorfSenior Play typed Jannie as a vamp. Her im' petuosity and vivacious person' ality were the keynotes to her style. Her ability was not lim' ited to merely acting, but she was a literary light in Caduceus. She has contributed scintillating essays to the Merc.

l THE MEIQCUIQ Virginia Amerell Amerell , as she is called by her numerous friends, was one of those charming lovable girls whom we all learned to admire immensely. Camaraderie and G.A.A. claimed her active mem' bership, and when she leaves Riverside she is going to make someone a capable secretary. Robert Archer All, including teachers, will agree that Arch captured the prize for his pranks and devasf tating humor. He had many activities besides having gained much recognition for his ability in football, track, tennis and basketball. Southern California awaits an outstanding athlete. Esther Catherine Ball Esther's ability as a musician and as a librarian makes her future uncertain, but she plans to enter Mount Mary College, regardless of her decision. Esther's scholastic standing, her club activities, and her work in the library has made her quite popular in Riverside. Jean Ball It was a real pleasure to know Jean. She had a very pleasant personality and was wellfliked by all those who knew her. She was an ideal type of a girl, par' ticipating in many activities and giving much of her energy for outdoor sports such as tennis, swimming, and skating. August Baranek Here is a banker who yearns to be an aviator. Gus , who was the school banker Qand by the way, a very efficient onel, was also active in sports: track and tennis attracting the most of his attention. Doesn't that healthy tan tell you that Gus prized sports more precious than anything else? Mary Lou Barker Charming Mary Lou! Though new to the school, she has made herself known and loved. Her pleasant smile, sweet manner, and ready wit were an asset to the numerous things she under- took. We know she's just the type for a delightful, social worker. You'll be missed, Mary Lou. Bernice Baumann Bunny, whose pleasant smile is not easily forgotten, knew how to keep in trim. She was one of the most ardent followers of G.A.A. since she played base' ball, basketball, volleyball, and tennis. Bunny learned about debating in Orient and had many good times in Cam and Allen. Lawrence Bauschek, jr. Laurie was an allfaround fellow. From sports which de' mand physical prowess such as tennis and track to those which demanded mental capacity such as Science Club, Laurie was in the front ranks with such a well rounded personality, we know he will succeed. Charles Benson Chuck's talents were diver' silied. They ran the range from athletics to dramatics. Chuck was a wellfknown figure on the track and cross-country teams and as a member of Rockne Hi' Y. He served the Student Board and' was active in Cue Club. We re expecting big things gf you, Chuck . Dorothy Berg Such a face as drifts through dreams, describes the starry- eyed maiden, Dorothy. Dot's waslnot a dream but a charming reality. In her school career Dorothy was a Student Board monitor and a member of many of the clubs including G.A.A. and German Club. George Berg George came here from Tech last year, and he had little diliiif culty in making new friends, His desire to be an entomologist 15 not surprising since he has become quite skillful as an ama' teur taxidermist and butterfly collector. He belonged to Cue Club and appeared in Hamlet . Robert Berg Besides being valedictorian of his class, Bob was either presi' dent or a very active member in nearly every club of the school. He was a member of the Stu' dent Athletic Council, contestant in the Intersociety Debate, and News Editor of the Merc . He will attend the University of Wisconsin. Pagz' Tfwmty-om'

I THE MEIQCUIQY l Harry D. Brooks Anyone who belonged to al' most any of the various clubs at Riverside could not have failed to meet Harry. He was as active a member of the senior class as one could be. Mar' quette Dental School is fortunate in claiming his attention. Yvonne L. Brictson Bricl-ty , the petite blonde miss who was a familiar scholar to the halls of Riverside, worked faithfully as treasurer of Cam. She was always on hand to per' form the less ostentatious duties of Cam. Much credit is due her for the smooth running of that club. Dorothy Bruss Brussie , one of the most friendly and jovial seniors, en' tertained us with her wit and buoyant humor. G.A.A., Cam' araderie, Science Club, and A'Capella Choir boast of her active membership. We guar' antee that she will be an ex' cellent teacher if she retains that chuckle. Anne Brzoskowski Anne's activities lay both in and out of school, a fact which makes her very popular. Her cheerfulness aided her to be a valuable member in Cam. Anne's interest in athletics is carried into the line of volley' ball. As yet she has not de' cided upon a definite vocation. jane Anne Buening Jane was a natural dancer. There was a call for Iane's dancing ability as she danced in the Ghost Dance and in one of the Shovel Club meetings. Her interests range from dancing to biology teaching. In River' side jane was an active member of many of the clubs. Beatrice Bunke Bee was always such a busy student that her activities are too numerous to mention them all. She held office in Cue, Crescent, and Art Clubs, and was also active in Camaraderie, Allen, and G.A.A. Bee's tal' ents and cheerful personality brought her many new friends here. Floyd Bunker Bunky was one of those fortunate fellows who belonged to one of the HifY's. His en- thusiastic support was gained by track and football. Not content with this, he saw that we thorf oughly enjoyed the junior Prom by his aid on the Prom Com' mittee. Floyd is going to be an engineer. Virginia Burks Ginny wrote such g oo d themes that she seemed decreed by Fate to be a writer. Being interested in journalism, she found that Press Club was very instructive. Ginny revealed a fine voice when she joined the Girls' Glee Club, and not many know what artistic talent she has. Norman Bums Most of Norman's time while he was a member of the student body of Riverside was spent in faithful practice which qualified him for the title of one of the school's varsity basketeers. Bef sides his excellence at basketball, his good humored attitude made him a very desirable member of the Krhenzlein Hi'Y. Ray Burmeister We can't decide whether it is ambition personified or a little of Old Nick that was bubf bling out of Ray-perhaps it's spinach. Shorty wore off some of that surplus energy in sports-golf, baseball, football, and gym. Ray is an allfaround fellow who has made many friends. Rose Callos Cally's ability in dramatics brought her parts in Alice in Wonderland and Washington Day plays, and wasn't she a spooky ghost in the IuniorfSen- ior Ghost Dancen? Her G.A.A. work must not be slighted for a girl who can be on two chamf pion volleyball teams has to be good. Marjorie Chubeck The halls of fame of River' side will some day echo with the name of this wonderful viof linist. To further her education for a music director, she plans to attend State Teacher's Col' lege. She was further honored by being chosen as a member of Riverside's famous string quartette.
