Nancy Blac'kwc'la'cr hr-Nt jackie Bos! Wim L -:xx sv Q.-4 we Marfloa Basinger According to the old saying. still waters run deep, and to label Martha the most in love surely proves it. No one would guess it because of her quiet demeanor, innate reserve, and her devotion to her work. jimmy Beaver Maybe two of the reasons for Jim- my's being the most popular boy are his ready smile and pleasant greeting. Even when he gripes,-as most of us do,--he does it in such an amusing way that no one takes it seriously. Although she is studious and unas- suming in school, Nancy is no shrink- ing violet when it comes to basketball. Not only is she one of the outstanding players on the team, but she also car- ries her sportsmanship over into her daily school life. This one quality alone will do much to make her successful wherever she goes. Doris Bos! Quiet, reserved, ready to help when she can but never forcing herself upon anyone, Doris rightfully deserves the title of lady, Like all real ladies, she considers her school work important enough to take up a major share of her time,-a practice which will pay big dividends later. 'tBest-all-around girl so her class- mates say, and that includes many things. One has to have qualities of scholarship, willingness to work, and the ability to put loyalty to onc's school and friends above personal desires. These and more we Hnd in Jackie, as is further shown by the fact that she made all-county team last year and was elected captain of her team this year as well as editor-in-chief of the annual. Best-all-around title she truly de- serves. Iamcs Brown Chosen best-dressed boy by a class poll, James typifies the average Ameri- can school boy. Quiet, courteous, and obliging, he is a welcome addition to any class.

Susie Cheek If you want something done wellQ just call on Susie. Although she was voted the best student among the girls, she is never too busy to help someone, be it teacher or fellow student. Such an attitude exemplifies the teachings of the Golden Rule, and insures happi- ness and success for its possessor. Dick Cooke If you see a group of seniors having the times of their lives, you can safely bet your bottom dollar that Dick is m the midst of it. Jolly, yet sincere fun loving, yet studious, he is a Dukes mixture of good qualities. No wonder he was chosen best-all-around ' Lloyd Cornelius Quick to learn, ambitious to make the most of herself, yet ever ready for a rousing good time,-that's Lloyd, the gal with the soaring I. Q. Vern Cozart What would school be like if Vern were not around to flirt with the girls? His teasing and wise-cracking cer tainly keep life from getting boresome as well as from becoming too quiet If carried over into study hall, however that could be a mixed blessing where teachers are concerned. Betty Eller No one can deny that Betty is a very friendly person with her pleasant dis- position and a cheerful hello for those with whom she comes in contact. She has evidently discovered the truth of the old saying that 'ito have a friend, you must be one. Duane Eller Courtly and charming in his man ners, Duane is just the opposite of his usual stage role, the dastardly v1l lain. Although his stay in Rockwell High has been short, he has made a pleasant addition to the class and 1S well-liked by all.
