1944 Envvmm F. SEARLES Hum Scnooi WILLIAM BAHAN Some think he is quiet, but . . . Basketball 2, 4 Football 3, 4 William Bahan, better known as Bucky , was one of the fellows at all the dances and school activities. He was on the basketball and football teams. In school he appeared to be quiet, but we understand that outside of school he can make his share of the noise. CHARLES BAMFORD Earnest and diligent . . . Success is his. Cadets 2, 3, 4 Track 2 Charlie has always been a good student. We have found him a hard worker, a modest and quiet companion and a fellow with a serious outlook on life. Surely these quali- ties lead to success. ROBERT BAMFORD Did you get a shock, Bob? Cadets 2, 3 Senior Play 4 If you're looking for an electrician, remember the Senior Play. Bob played the part of John, the electrician. We don't know whether he actually repaired the lamps on the stage or not, but he appeared to be a master mechanic of electricity. LESLIE BARDEN It's unwise to be too serious Band 1, 2 Cadets 3 He is a quiet member in our class with whom an ac- quaintance is necessary to fully appreciate his depth as a friend. He is good-natured and generous, and if thes: qualities are assets, Les is certain to be a winner. - FRANCES BARKER 'Never to boast of her deeds' was her motto Basketball 2, 3, Capt. 4 Girls' A. A. 2, 3, 4 Girl Reserves 3 Bowling League 4 Blue and White 4 Frances is faithful and energetic in her work at school. We have known her as a keen, humorous, big-hearted com- panion, and a thorough student, a proven athlete, and the possessor of a fine disposition. She is certainly marked for good fortune. 15 -. al?
