SENIORS JEAN Ro1cVsEK Roeky's future is in either being a model for products ad- vertising beautiful complexions or as a prominent lady execu- tive. Tall and dignified, possess- ing serious gray eyes, her style is marked by efficiency with- out fuss. As a commercial stu- dent, f'Rocky'i is unsurpassed, Gnivruurm SHANK The eyes have it with Gert- rude, who, by the way, answers to the nick-name of Gertie . Here is a girl who really likes and enjoys the contacts high school has to offer. She likes any sport and makes roller skating a specialty. CLARYINCE BPIClliRES'l' Dud is Rocky River's number one play-boy. He is a polished master on the ball-room floor and prefers the sophisticated type of girl. Out for every good time, Dud is at his best when at a party, but he also excells in all sports. RI'TH GORE Ruth, in her quiet way is a pal to all. She always has some- thing pleasant to say and never fails to say it. Her willingness to cooperate, and her congenial spirit have made her a favorite with the faculty as well as the student bodv. BIAY DENTON May is very much the biologist, her greatest pleasure coming from birds, trees, butterflies, and flowers. Entirely self-suf- ficient, she is a pleasant person to talk with as she laughs a great deal, and has the enviable faculty of putting other people at ease. NINETEEN vVA1,'l'lC1t Col'I,'1'En VValter always gets the first date with every new girl eom- ing to the school. Don't let him fool you-he is not as quiet as he looks. In fact, he really gets around, and has excellent taste in women. lle enjoys experi- menting in chemistry. Y. Lv c, 36' J? , BI+2'l l'X' Brwfiricic In Betty one finds a Combin- ation of intellect, a sense of lnunor, and a charming friend- liness. Her unruifled compos- ure, brilliant mind, high ideals, and potent personality lead us to predict four distinguished years at College for her after graduation. En SCHI's'1'1cu lid is one of the best lirst basemen ever turned out at River. A true gentleman, he is interested in boats and left just a month before graduation to go on the lakes. Eddie formerly worked at ltoekclilt and has a yen for at least one sophomore girl. J -x.
