ZZAAAFT 7 Z EUGENE GRAHAM THOMPSON “Gene” has worked untiringly as Business Manager of the Rocket, and to him much credit is due. He also has shown that busi- ness is not the only channel in which his talents le. He has proved that he can hold an audience spell-bound by is ability to speak fluently and to the point. Full of energ y and pep, Eugene keeps things astir wherever he is. “None but himself can be his parallel.” | Page Twenty-four | Pa ae — cL g SATA Z eee Z ar eS =EDwin =23-2e. BERMAN R Ratsene LorENA BELL WADE We have a versatile class, haven’t we? Lorena is one of the musical units. Of what good are musical fingers without a musical inside? Lorena has both, as we have found out. She can make good grades and she can play the piano. What more could one ask? “Precious articles are incased in small pack- ages,’ has often been said and it is not con- trary to custom in this personality. “But God has a few of us to whom He whispers in the ear, The rest may reason and welcome; °Tis we musicians know.”

Epna KATHERINE STANFIELD Edna hails to us from our suburban vil- lage, Brooksdale. With her blue eyes and golden hair as assets she manages to win t teachers over on her side even if she dos not always get seventy on her work. She can meet the public in a business like way and even though she is one of the literary editors of the annual has brought in several ads. We think that the business world wil attract Edna. “Woman is at best a contradiction Stillen IsAIAH STALVEY “Good natured Ike,” that’s what anyone who knows him will say. He is a good sport and always ready for fun. Though “Tke”’ does not ever appear to be exerting himself, unless it is by talking, when it comes to Grammar he is always about as accurate in his case relations as a good mathematician is with his figures. With his easy-going manner and good humor he will make and hold friends when he gets out into the world. “He dares do all that may become a man; Who dares do more, is none.” [ Page Twenty-three |

Marcaret Louise WILBURN Blessed with, beauty, talent, and a keen sense of humor, Louise has the most lovable personality in the class. O.1e would suppose that she is dignified but her friends know her to be always on hand when there is any fun afoot. In everyday words Louise is the “cat’s whiskers,’ and we wish for her the best of luck all through life. She is our Art Editor and we are very fortunate to have her, “Her voice was ever soft, gentle, and low, an ex- cellent thing in woman.” lo YZ DWIN Fe R= 25-R Re Ss — EBERMAN VR xt Addis VIRGINIA CAROLINA WILKERSON It is said that large people are good na- tured and we believe it, for Virginia usually has a number of ups and downs—to hear her tell it—and still is in a good humor most of the time. The fact that she has only re- cently bobbed her hair gives us reason to think that she thinks a long time before jumping at conclusions. She is a truly do- mestic girl, perhaps her ability along this line is one of the factors that causes her to be attractive to the opposite sex. “T had rather have a fool to make me merry, than experience to make me sad.” Failed to do work sufficient for graduation.
