goof qyistinguishecl Qservice - Special .!4LU8,VdS CUP OF 1923 To Bill McGovern, the senior who has been most outstanding in leadership, scholarship, ser- vice, and character, the coveted Cup of the Class of 1923 was presented this year. Throughout his four active years in high School, Bill has been prominent in various organ- izations. He has been a busy member of Atom Crackers, an enthusiastic member of the choir, and he has continued his participation in the band this year even though he received no credit. In his junior year he was vice president of his class and co-editor of the Keynote. The pres- idency of th Hi-Y Club and also of Student Council were ably handled by Bill during his sen- ior year. In addition, he has ranked in the upper fourth of his class in scholarship. GERTRUDE HILLS MEMORIAL AWARD The senior girl this year who best exemplified the ideals for which Miss Gertrude Hills stood, those of character and service cheerfully given even in minor things, was Dorothy Cowell. Dorothy has been a splendid example, for she has given herself wholeheartedly to her class and school. She has been a fine worker not only in Speech Club, band, choir, and Colonnade, but she has also given her time and talent to Student Council even though a heavy schedule made dropping her Council duties necessary. Always she has spoken her opinions fearlessly and has stood for the finest principles. Thus she has proved herself a worthy recipient of this trophy. EVENING NEWS JOURNALISM TROPHY Gwenn Buzzo was awarded the Evening News Journalism Trophy for exceptional work on the school newspaper. No one qualifies any better than Gwenn, who has devoted many hours in valuable time to the Keynote and has worked unselfishly and with spirit. She began in her freshman year as a cub reporter, but by her third year, because of her dependability and promise, she was named co-editor. In her senior year the entire responsibility rested on her shouldersg in addition she also accepted the co-editorship of this senior edition. The Keynote is not Gwenn's sole interest, however, for she has been on the Library Staff, is a member of Colonnade, and was elected to National Honor Society. fContinuz'd on page 411 GWENN BUZZO ELIZABETH GIBSON WILLIAM McGOVERN REGINALD MAKI ELIZABETH STRIKE DOROTHY COWELL Page 7
