seas C. as 91055 CHARLES Nlilli-i Ont oi' those bashful short-pant days, Charles Neir or Charlie has grown to be a young' chap of charm. llis enchanting voice allures but his musical ability is not confined to the vocal. He enjoys instrumental work and participates in band and orches- tra. Not only in music, but also in dramatics he proved an imposing Iigurc. llc. too, donned the athletic garb and played well in baseball and bas- ketball. But Charles came into his own in the field of journalism. He wrote practically all the sports high- lights of this year.

JAMES N l'IWCOlVll5l'l Jimmie Newcombe is just dillcr- cnt. With his big blue eyes and his artistic temperament he attracts people, and then his mag'iieiis'n proves to be nl' that quality which holds them. Swimming, tennis, golf. and icc- skating' are likely to intrigue him, and books are a never-endinu' source ol' pleasure. Only he insists that he must have the luxury of juicy red apples within his reach when he sits down with his favorite author. His deep interest in music is re- vealed by his continued nieml-ership in the school choruses, his position as organist in a local church, and his organ composition appearing' in this Hillcrest.

TUE .Hs ag. WL MAXINE MERRYFIELD Sweet, demure. and very conserva- tive is little Miss Maxine Merryfielsl when she slips as quiet as a mouse about the corridors of the school huilding. She is the source ol' much merriment among her friends as she Hashes her radiant smile and the pretty dimples grow deeper and deeper. However, she is not always this same shy girl. There are certain hours throughout the day that she dares to throw aside her cloak ol' modesty and become a modern miss. To most people. Maxine is ,just :i very nice, quiet girl, but to those who really know her, she is loads oi' l'un, and a bag full of joy.
