THERESE CORMIE— “Speak Low” Therese’s first name is popular around school, but she is the only senior bearing it. As familiar as her name are those slacks she wears so jauntily. Therese’s impulsiveness, an out- standing characteristic which has been at various times both an asset and a liability, we’re hoping will some day lead her to a life of happiness.

We have now seen a great change take place as he becomes one of our class wits, especially in English class. There is little doubt that any one of us will forget the day he tried chewing tobacco in that class. Following this, the board considered installing spitoons. One of the finest things about Ronald though is that his wit has been without malice, and he has been fun for all of us to know.

MARY LOU DOLAN—“Louie” “Always” When the last bell has stopped ringing, and the buzzer is about to sound, Mary Lou quickly steps into homeroom. We’ll always remember her for this. They say “Better late than never.’’ It certainly applies to “Louie.” She has always helped the class along, so that it might become an outstanding one. She is un- decided between two careers—business and teaching. After seeing her in the play, we feel she could go on the stage, too. Whatever the career, success should surely come to you, “Louie.” Junior Time (1); Junior High Chorus (1); Junior High Dramatics (1); One act Plava (1.2.4); Secretary of Fresh man Class (1); Library Club (2.3.4); Secretary of Sopho- more Class (2); Service Club (4); Intramurals (1.2. 3. 4). GLEN LA BARGE—“Porky” “No Love, No Nothing” Freckle-faced Glen with the quiet manner and ready smile is supposed to have evaded the “S. H. S. wolfesses” and devoted his outside interests to fishing and hunting. When Glen be- comes a successful salesman of sporting equipment, let’s hope he doesn’t ask if he can’t write his sales talk and hand it to the customer. And when he “pops the momentous question” we trust he’ll at least be able to say, “Will you?” More vocal power to you, Glen. Chef Club (3); Baseball (2): Intramurals (1.2. 3. 4) 13

BETTY BREWER—“fie ” “Slender. Tender, and Tall” Betty is a very neat and attractive girl, whose clothes are the envy of all the girls. She’ll make a good wife for somebody be- cause she’s an excellent cook. The only drawback is—don’t ask her to make junket! Among the senior girls, Betty is one of our best athletes. Betty has two courses in a career that she might follow. She might be a dietitian or something similar to represent her home economics, or she might be a physical education teacher. Whatever you choose, Betty, we’re with you all the way.

DONALD HATHAW AY—“Pickle” “I'd Love to Know You Better” Don was another of the “heroes” on our varsity basketball team this year. His car was also a favorite during the basketball season and still is for square dances, etc. Of all the cars we know, there isn’t one that can boast holding as many passen- gers as Don’s can. Considering h»s good work as hall monitor for the Service Club we feel he would make a good traffic cop. Then, too, he was an excellent stage manager for “The Widow’s Plight.” Good luck in whatever you choose to do, Don!

W INIFRED BROW N—“Winnie” “I'll Be Around” This year’s senior class has several girls who are short in stature, and Winnie is no exception. However, she makes up for this difference by her liveliness. Winnie’s participation in the class plays as a child have been successfully acted out, and they lead us to wondering if Winnie will continue her stage career. Nevertheless it is possible and probable, judging from her list of friends in the armed forces, that Winnie will settle down to a happy married life.

ROBERT FREMONT—“Hob” “I Guess I II Have to Dream the Rest” Bob is our human encyclopedia. Occasionally, we have evidence o his stored knowledge when he lets otf some humorous re- mark, dripping with five or six syllable words. Bob does not seem to think there is a necessity of coming to school in both the morning and afternoon. At’ least, his attendance record seems to say so. Bob has not told us what he would like to do after completing high school, but we are sure his future will be successful.

“Sophisticated Lady JACQUELYN DREW—“Jacky” The name of “Jacky” might have a masculine sound to some ears, but to S. H. S. it brings thoughts of utter femininity in the person of the blue-eyed and dimpled Jacky Drew. On re- consideration, the phrase utter femininity does not quite apply —for on certain occasions she has been known to display great stubbornness and strength of mind supposedly missing in the “weaker” sex. In spite of her assertions that she will join a certain “Old-Maid Club,” we feel certain her future will soon lead to matrimony. Junior High Chorus (1.2): Junior Time (1): One-act Play (2): Sport Council (3); Library Club (3.4); Burgoyne Crier (3); Iniramurals (1,2. 3, 4); Schuyler Staff (4). WALTER LA VOY—“Walt' “All Apple for the Teachers” Walt seems to be one of the most travelled students of the class. Now', his most frequently visited place is Glens Falls, but we can all remember when Clarks Mills used to be his fa- vorite spot. However, Walt’s happiest moments seem to be in school amongst our many attractive senior girls—or should we say senior girl? Seriously, WaL has a great talent for draw- ing, and we know it is not all his interest in models either. Walt has not told us his future plans yet, but we are all sure he would make a good store clerk since he has had plenty of practice.

VELMA GALUSHA—“Slats” “L ‘l Me Call You Sweetheart” Velma is one of those rare, lucky, individuals who possess a combination of many desirable traits: good looks, pleasant per- sonality, intelligence, and ambition. But perhaps we might ad- mit that she has one small defect in her make-up. That is her hesitancy in deciding between the several persistent applicants for her favor. Nevertheless, we believe that eventually she will conquer this fault and become an A plus wife as well as an A plus student.

VERNON MINER—“Tokey” “I Didn’t Sleep a Wink Last Night” We thought we were going to lose Vernon this year to the Navy because he was undecided whether to leave before school closed in June or not. However, the Navy did the deciding for him and told him to finish school. All the teachers will tell you that Vernon is noted for always having the best reason for taking a test later than the set time for it. He usually man- ages to be some place else when the make-up tests come along, too. However, maybe the Admirals will listen to reason more willingly. Smooth sailing for the future, Vernon.
