Roselyfz Fisher Gay, vivacious, bubbling over with enthusiasm for whatever strikes her fancy, Roselyn has made herself a fa- vorite member of her class. Her skill on the 88 keys doesn't lessen her popu- larity either, for she's usually the cen- ter of an admiring group when she plays, be it Bach or boogie-woogief' Dorothy H olshouser Paul Hill It may be his humor, or it may be the fact that he is the cutest boy according to class statistics, but Paul's every remark brings appreciative chuckles from his feminine listeners. The fact thas this is Leap Year should make his shyness an asset rather than a liability. Biggest pest? Maybe yes, maybe no. At any rate, she has a very nice smile that she can turn on when she thinks the occasion rates it. Everyone will agree that we need more such smiles in this old world, so keep smiling, Dot! Davicl H u ff num Willie H olsbouser Tall and stately in appearance, yet gay and full of fun, Willie is a person of contrasts with a charm all her own. No wonder she has lots of friends! When you mix wit with a dash of mischief and spice it with natural abil- ity to play the clown, you get such a person as David. If he has a care in the world, he knows how to hide it when there's a chance to make some- one laugh. Life should be pleasant for one who can bring laughter to those around him. Phil H 0 well Handsome is as handsome does, so goes an old quotation. Even if Phil had not Won the title of best looking boy, his wit, sociability and skill in mimicry would make folks forget about looks anyway, and don't forget he's captain of the basketball team.

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.

Lorie Lookabill Jolly and easy-going, Lorie is like a good tonic to those down in the dLunps. ' It's impossible to stay gloomy around her, for she can always see the funny side if there is one. It's not sur- prising that she has such a wide circle of friends. julia Lyerly Fern Kluttz Biggest baby! That sounds like a tease for Fern who is a very capable person, even if she does come in a small packagef' After all, quality counts more than quantity when one is selecting friends. Laugh and the world laughs with you could be Julia's philosophy of life. By her witty comments and effort- less humor, she does her share to bring gayety into this sometimes dreary world. Betty Parks Margaret Lyerly Always neatly and appropriately dressed for the occasion, and wearing that just-stepped-out - of - the - band- box look, Margaret well deserves the title of best-dressed. Let no one think she considers clothes alone, for her class Work gets a full share of her attention. Most bashful? Well, her classmates voted her that, but who would ever guess it? Betty likes to express her own opinions,-and does. After all, what sort of a place would this old world be if we couldn't! Betty cer- tainly doesn't let life get dull around her. Wayrrze Morgan 'tMost in lovel' his classmates say, and perhaps they're right. He shows symptoms of having been bitten by the love-bug, but it isn't serious enough to prevent him from keeping at least an attentive eye on his school respon- sibilities. 5-Ig
