1924 THE MIRAGE 1924 MARIAN ELIZABETH MALONE General Course Debating Clubg History Club: Mirage Staff: Leap Year Club, Vice President. Nickname- Sheba Sunny hair and sunny face Of sadness you'll find no trace. Marian is a pride to the commercial teach- ers. You should watch her fingers fly over the noisy keys -of the typewriters! But studies do not hinder Marian from being popu- lar. There's a certain little CD senior boy who knows Sheba's charms. None of the young men can resist the temptation to talk to her, and bask in her smiles. She is full of fun and gayety,'and laughs everyone else in- to smiles. A pleasant smile and unfailing good nature made her a good person to keep company with, and as she is also a conscienti- ous worker, she will reach the highest goal. PAUL KOEHLER General Coarse Mirage Staff: Senior Football Team. Nickname- Emma The smallest hair shows a shadow. Paul undoubtedly gets his nickname from his associations with the weaker sex. This hand- some young man has a way with the girls that seems well nigh irresistible. Studies seem to be the least of his worries, but the way he has come through the first three years of his high school course leaves little doubt that he will be very decidedly among those present when the class of '24 bids farewell to R.H.S. It is our belief that he will become a salesman of some sort as his line is very good and will help him much in his later activities. HILDA E. RUMBLE General Course Dramatic Club, '23, '241 D. K. D. C'lub: H. T. XV. Club. Nickname- Pedie Dink Oh, why Should life all labor be? Here's one small girl that it is impossible to keep track of. She is a frequent visitor of the Bentel Grocery fone block northj , keep- ing the rest of us from starving during school hours. In spite of outside interests Pedie Dink has taken an interest UD in her work and has always been able to C her way through. She has a smile on her countenance and a sparkling twinkle in her eye, and despite the lack of a dimple in her chin we know there is lots of pep within. Do we like Pedie? Illl say we do! H S Twenty

1924 THE MIRAGE 1024 ISABEL DORIS WATTERSON Classical Course N ickname- Babe Quiet, sweet, and loving Isabel has not always been a member of the brilliant class of '24, having come to us from Beaver to finish her course of learning with a flourish by receiving a diploma from R.H.S. Despite her tardy membership, we would now be lost without her, for she has Won us all. Little of Isabelfs personal life is known in Rochester, but have we not seen her at the movies with an admirer from the weaker sex. Perhaps her brown eyes will widen at this bold remark, yet truth will out and secrets cannot be kept in this school, try as one may. Isabel is an extremely good student and she has our best wishes for a successful career. ROBERT A. ATKINSON Classical Course Choral Club, '243 Dramatic Club, '233 D. D. D. Clubg Mirage Staff. Nickname- Bob No eats, no live. Bob is another of those preacher's sons that helps make the rule true, All preacher's sons are terrors. Many of the good old proverbs of our youthful days may be made applicable to this young man, for instance, Eat and wax thin, Laughi, and all that other bunk. But one thing is sure-Where there are eats, there you'll find Bob. That's all right, old dear, the rest of us like it as well as you and do let us hear of greater accom- plishments by you, both as scholar and athlete, in your future years. VIRGINIA BERNICE FRANK Commercial Course Dramatic Club: Debating Clubg Chorus, '23-'24g Mirage Staff: Leap Year Club. Nickname- Jinnie She moves like a goddess, She looks like a queen. Who could fall off a train and still maintain a quiet, dignified bearing? Virginia. She is dedicated to all loveliness of speech and of action, yet she has a practical side as well. There is a far-a-way expression in her eyes and you imagine she is wading up some rosy cloud. We Wonder-?? Can she sing? You bet your boots. Virginia sings like a bird and is Miss Coe's secretary and right-hand man. We also think she could be a classic Greek dancer. By means of one of her many talents, who can tell what will happen?

19241 THE MIRAGE 1924 ELIZABETH D. CALHOON General Course Basketball, '23, '24-Capt. '24: S0i'l'Utll'Y of Clussg Chorus, '34g IJ. K. ll, Club: Mirage Staff. Nickname- Whitey Snappy and peppy Happy go lucky. A swift round object comes whirling through spaceg a girl on winged feet catches it in mid- air, and lightly tosses it through the hoop. Three cheers!! Hurrah! Whitey has made another basket! Truly she has the art of forwarding reduced to a science. We, more clumsy mortals lumbering about the gym in frantic attempts to guard her, feel decidely useless. Elizabeth is everywhere and nowhere at the same time. Peppy and vivacious, one is always sure of a good time- in her presence. Others, including members of our class and UD have realized this. Here's hop- ing her cup of success will overflow at Alle- gheny. LEWIS HERDT Commercial Course Senior Football Teamgv Dramatic Club: Choral Club: Mirage Staff. N ickname- Barney Lewis fell down and broke his crown. ' Comical? Nothing else but! He could make you laugh over nothing. The person who ap- pointed him as joke editor for the Mirage surely knew his stuff tif we must use com- mon slang.J Lewie is a great favorite among the girls on account of his ever ready wit and humor. We predict that in years to come our Seniors will be patronizing his shoe shop, for he is now a junior member of the Hartley and Hood Co., and has the honor of washing the windows of the store. Stick to it, Lewie, we know you will succeed. HENRIETTA S. SCHLEIGER Commercial Course Leap Year Club: Latin Clubg Dramatic Club: Mirage Staff. Nickname- Henri Henri has a lot of spirit but she,s not a spiritualistf' In the year of our Lord, 19-, Henri Schleiger was destined to become a bright light of our class. She's snappy, happy, and friendly. The more you know of Henrietta the more you are bound to like her. Don't fool yourself either, our Henri has a man! If you don't believe our story, ask any worthy member of the L. Y. C., as they've often seen his chapeau hanging on the hat-rack at their parties. Mais c'est assez! We must not tell everything we fdon'tJ know. R H S Twenty-one
