=—=== = £i)e jFlambeau Seniors . . . Walter Newell—“ Wall” A master of “elegant elocution”; that is our estimation of “Walt.” His ability to use large words has made him the outstanding speaker of our class. His arguments in and out of school are always founded upon excellent principles of which he has a knowledge. With his speech, intelligence, and ability to influence people, he is bound to “go places.” “A-s' it were ...” II uth Shaffer—“Shaffer” “Shaffer” is a jolly, fun-loving girl who has walked from Clear Run to school every day for about three years. Her hobby is collecting snapshots; she has succeeded in accumulating a great number of them. “Shaffer” wants to be a nurse, but we don’t know how long it will last because you see, there is a certain boy . . . . ! “Holy (ice! John N u p p—‘ ‘Sn uffy’ ’ John impresses us as a person who knows what he is talking about. Though by nature he is not inclined to talk, he quickly gains everyone’s attention when he does. From all reports it is evident that John is quite a woodsman. Whether his career will bring him close to “mother nature” or not, we know he will reap his reward. “You got your nerve!” Faye Sloppy—“Faye” Faye looks like a very quiet girl; however when you got to know her, you change your opinion somewhat. She is an active member of the Girls’ Hi-Y and a loyal friend. Her favorite pastime is teasing a certain boy named Joe who reports in the Library. Faye hasn’t made her -ambitions known, but a girl of her calibre should succeed. “For the lore of Pete!” 29

-----------------Cf)c Jflambeau Seniors . . . Harry Myers—“Butch'’ Harry appears to be an easy-going individual, but he always gets his work done with plenty of time to spare. He likes basketball and is a well known spectator at all the games, where a certain Junior girl occupies most of his time. His slow, pleasant speech brings him many ready listeners at all times. “Hi fin” Roberta Robertson—“Bert” “Bert” is an example of what we call a good mixer. Her cheerful personality makes it easy for her to associate with other people. Her membership in the Girls’ Hi-Y emphasizes this trait. It is rumored that she would like to be a school teacher. She would have little difficulty in realizing such an ambition, we are certain. “Oh—! —look!” John Narvky—“Johnny” “Johnny” is a serious lad in regard to his studies and otherwise. Being a bashful boy, lie seldom causes his teachers any trouble. His motto is “seeing is believing”, and consequently he is always ready for an argument. Strange as it may seem, he is usually right even though he does form his own opinions. “How do you know?” Betty Schoch—“Schochie” If this school had no outside activities, “Schochie” would be at a loss for something to do. The Girls’ Volleyball, the Commencement Committee, the Girls’ Ili-Y, and other organizations are pleased to have her as a member. She is one of the best leaders of the Senior girls, and the boys never tire of her company. “Hey, ‘Bert’, I’ve got something new.” 28

Cbe Jflamfeau Seniors . . . Marion Place—“Rare” Could it be possible that “Rare” has lived down South at one time or another? He has that typical Southern drawl, plus a keen sense of humor. “Rare” is especially known for his ability as a hunter and a woodsman. His diligent labor has contributed to his success in the past, and will be a big factor in his future work. “Yeah” Irene Stanton—“Renee” Because of her indulgence in harmless mischief, “Renee”is invariably the center of attraction. Still her scholastic standing is high, and she has taken part in many outside activities. She played the chief feminine role in both the Junior and Senior Plays, and her personality anti acting ability were important factors that contributed to the success of both productions. “Hen, “Etta”, I hare something to tell you” Francis Reed—-“Frannie” One of the quickest ways to raise a laugh is to have “Frannie” around. He teams up with “Pud” in displaying wit and humor. His school work does not seem to suffer by this, however, and “Frannie” always has time to talk with the girls, especially one from Clear Run. What do you have to say about it, “Frannie”? “—Er— sumpin—” Marian Thunberq—“Marian” Marian, who has struggled laboriously with algebra, devoured English, and performed very commendable work in Home Economics, forges onward, hoping some day to become a housekeeper. She tells us that she intends to struggle up life’s weary pathway alone, but with her ready smile and her desire to do her part and help others, we wonder. “I haven’t the slightest idea” 30
