Pheto by McClusky ROCKWELL T. MILLER (‘Rocky’) After four years of sad trial the teachers have nearly gone wild, but Rockwell remains the same and only smiles. DOROTHY LONG Long Dorothy or Dorothy Long; right either way you put it. We hear that she longs to be an artist. May she stick to her ambition, how- ever long it may require for her to realize it. In bidding her good-bye, we add that we shall always long for her—this long Dorothy Long. RICHARD WILLIS MUMPTON (‘Dick’) There was a young man named Dick, Who at reporting was certainly slick. He wrote up the sports, And news of all sorts, Just to give Brass Tacks readers a kick. First Slingerland Prize (Boys); De-O- Wain-Sta Staff; Brass Tacks Staff; Dra- matics Club; Hi-Y Club. MARY LOUISE MANSON (‘Wee’) Strange to say, although she is going to be a nurse, she just loves mechanics, and every- thing and everybody that has anything to do with “Mechanics.” Chemistry Club. FELIX PALASH We all envy and admire Felix for his ability to gain honors and hope that he will always hold a place in his heart for the school which has given him the opportunity of which he has taken such splendid advantage. Salutatory; De-O-Wain-Sta Staff.
