l THE MEIQCUIQY l Lora Clafendetcher Lora did a great amount of music work both in and outside of school and found much en- joyment singing in the AllfCity High School Chorus, several Thanksgiving and Christmas programs, and the spring conf cert. Lora looks with interest toward future interior deco' rating. Robert Cole Bobby Cole, as Mercuraf chrome , was the only red' headed negro in captivity. Who can forget him in the Minstrel Show? Secretaryship of his sophomore and junior classes tell his popularity. Although it's hard to picture Bobby as a mining engineer, we know he can do it. Helen Cooke Cookie was an ideal high school pupil. She was a good scholar, was active in many clubs, and was well liked by all who knew her. In September Helen plans to enter the State Teacher's College in order to study for her career as a teach' er. We wish her loads of good luck for a successful carreer. Mary Coupe Bright, charming, vivacious Mary, captain of the senior championship basketball team, was everybodv's friend. Cam, G.A.A., and Cue will miss her next semester when she goes to State Teachers We envy the lucky children who will some day take speech under Mary. Jeanne Daly Here is a girl who was one of the outstanding members of the senior class, member of the winning Intersociety Debate team, Art Editor of Annual, member of Cue, Shovel, and Caduceus. She worked hard for A. A. U. W. exams. We hope to see Jeanne design a large skyscraper one of these days. Harriet Dobson Harriet's great ambition is to be an actress, and we believe she is well on her way there. She is a member of the Wisf consin Players and the Civic Theater Players, Inc., and she has been in several plays at school and was also a valuable library assistant and a member of Cam. Page Tfwrniy-four John Domagalski John was a regular fellow and Well liked by all with whom he came in contact. He spef cialized in commercial work, and it is in that field that he desires to enter. We know he will be as successful in Madison at the University as he has been here during his four years. John Downing Too much cannot be said of johnnie's ability as an athlete. We can't easily forget his ex' cellent playing on the champion- ship team last fall. Through his good work, he attained the high position of allfcity fullback! John also participated in track and basketball and was on the Prom Committee last year. Audrey A. Draeger- Audrey's ambition is to be an infants' nurse. NNouldn't that be the ideal work for one of her type? There is that certain quietness about her that should quiet any contrary child without much trouble. However, there is hard work in that choice, but if anyone can do it, she can. Irene Drobniewski Although unknown to many Riversiders, Daisy did not fail to leave her mark at East. She was a member of Cam and Shovel, and her greatest inter' est was centered in commercial subjects. Although East loses her, some concern will gain an excellently trained stenographer. Elladora du Bois Elladora plans to go to Law' fence College to study dramatics or journalism. As an able mem- ber of Cue she had a part in the Christmas Play and also Twelfth Night. On the other hand, Press Club and the Mercury claimed her prose and poetry. Her lovely voice has brought her honors. Elton Dummann Al was that tall boy who was so active outfoffdoors. He was on the track and C.C.C. teams, and played basketball. His tennis opponents found he swung a tennis racket expertly. Vv'e know you will be very lik' able as an engineer at Wisconsin.

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.

l THE MEIQCUIQY l Howard Eder Howie will be remembered for his remarkable debating ability. He was president oi Orient and took part in the Intersociety Debate. He was a member of the Science and Shovel Clubs, and the Older Boys' Organization. The Merc Monthly and Annual claimed some of his time as well. Lucille Eder We were not fortunate enough to have Lucille with us during all four years of high school, for part of the time she attended Messmer. Lucy was vitally inf terested in sports, such as bas' ketball, soccer, and baseball, while she attended Riverside. Her ambition is to be a secref tary. Gerald Erdman jerry was well liked among Riversiders, but it seems too bad that outside activities neces' sarily kept him from participat- ing in the extra curricular work of the school life. Regardless of this, Jerry found time to play in the Junior orchestra. Alice Faber Alice was captain of a base' ball team in G.A.A. Perhaps her athletics have helped her to attain the grace so necessary in dancing, for Alice hopes to be a dancer some day. She also belonged to Shovel, Camaradf erie, and Orient. As an art student she belonged to Art Club. Thomas Farley Tom will soon enter Mar- quette to study medicine. He was in plays at Cue, Shovel, and an End Man in the Minstrel Show. We know that he, who was so competent in black, will just as skillfully carry out the role of the man in white. His intoxicating humor will make ether unnecessary. Norma Fedders Norma, a busy little person, has crowded much into her four short years at Riverside. Norma was one of the Chocolate cake walkers in the Minstrel Show. She has also made a name for herself as scribe for Allen, and as a very fine student. Science Club will long remember the service she rendered that group. Theresa Fein Theresa was that diligent literary editor who never seemed to rest. What she did for the Merc and Caduceus need not be repeated. She took the Chi' cago and A. A. U. W. scholar' ship exams. However, her aspirations are not entirely liter' ary, for Theresa is an ardent tennis player. Roger Fliege Roger was another of those businessfminded men, his ambi- tion being to enter Marquette and study to be a sales manager. His hobby is stamp collecting, but in school his interests lay toward science and the many recent discoveries of that art. John Herbert Frank The dark haired boy with the harmonizing ties is the Bing Crosby of East. john has been in any number of things: a solo' ist in the Minstrel Show and the Opercttag an eager worker for the Merc's business end. Hc was one of the many who got up early for A'Capella Choir. jean Foley Don't you know Jean? Cer' tainly you do! She was that shy and yet amiable little girl, well liked among all with whom she associated here at school. Her friendliness was further car' ried out when she joined Cam. Jean has the ambition to be a stcnographerg we wish her luck! Florence Froh Florence gave up much of her time to G.A.A. She was an excellent basketball player and was on the championship team of 1934. Flo , as she was called by her friends, which were many, was very well liked. We will miss her next year. Florence plans to enter Miss Brown's Business College. Roderick Fox Roderick was more interested in athletics than most anything else. He was a member of the track team, tennis club, and seng ior football team and also be' longed to Older Boys' Organ' ization and Shovel Club. Rod' erick was very well known and well liked. Marqllettc is to be his next destination. Page Tfw1'r1fy-ffvz'
