-.I I u 535 PACEMAKERS , O Portia Sedgwick, who maintained a scholastic average of 2.839 went the honor of being valedictorian of the Ianuary graduating class. Although her average was high, Portia was very active in extra-curricular activities. She was secretary of the Shakespeare Club, a member of the Senior Executive Committee, Senior Honor Society, Blue Triangle, Pilots, and the Standard Staff, and parti- cipated in the opera, The Vagabond King. Mr. Lundin, senior adviser, says of her, K'Portia is not only an excellent student, but she is also a girl of unusual apti- tudes in many other directions, as one can easily see by checking over her various activities. Coupled with these abilities is a genial personality that makes every one like her. To make it short, she is an all-around line girl in every sense of the wordfl ARRIETTE PETERSON with the high scholastic average of 2.833 was named Salutatorian of the Ianuary class. The extra-curricular activities in which she participated were Blue Triangle, Debate, Senior Honor Society, Latin Club, National Forensic League, and Roosevelt International Club. Besides this she worked on the Standard Stall, Tattler Staff, and was Ianuary Class Editor of the Sagamore. Harriette was also a winner of the Service Trophy, this in itself is an accom- plishment. She was able to carry on her extra-curricular activities and her class work together and to use them both to advantage. Mr. Levi Osterhus, debate coach, says, During the three years I have known Harriette, I find that she is able to carry responsibility, and accomplish those things which she has been delegated to do. I have a very high regard for Harriette in respect to her character, person- ality, and general abilityf' ENNETH GUSTAFSON, one of the Service Trophy winners, was outstand- ing in service to the school and yet maintained a high scholastic average of 2414. His associates recognized his worth by making him president of the Senior Honor Society, and also of the German Club. In addition, Kenneth was a mem- ber of the Shakespeare Club, the Senior Executive Committee, the Student Coun- cil, and the l934 Swimming Teamg he also had a leading role in the class play, Smilin' Through. Miss Pauline Hayes, dramatic coach, says of him, Kenneth was most satis- factory in his cooperative attitude. He is an excellent actor, and his splendid spirit ot loyal effort was one of the vital factors in the success of his class playf' . , 'A , ,. .r . , ,, IQJH, A . f P. SMI!! el: H. Pvtzfr ry: .
