ifiigi- 1fifff,,n THE 5011 Wr crm BERT WISE Bert We wonder where you got your last name, Bert? We don't believe in signs or names either, for Bert-well, he spends most of his time on his motorcycle-when he's not slicking himself up. We missed his cheerful presence in social gatherings but knew he was probably busy rehearsing one of the many plays he is always mixed up in. Bert intends towork a while, be- fore continuing his education. Arnold B. Zimmer Arnold came to Nordstrum from Sebe- waing, Michigan, and has always stood among the first in his classes. He is a mem- ber of the Nordstrum News Staff and worked hard to make the paper a success. He is also a famous member of the Nord- strum jazz Band and takes an important part in The Comedy of Errors. The Roosevelt Debating Club also claims him as a member. Gretchen Dinger Gretchen is our noisiest Senior-no one knows anything about her. Nevertheless everyone likes her and she will probably surprise us all and grow up to be as good a cook as the rest of us. Gretchen wrote the class will and was a member of our famous orchestra. Edward F. Budnik S6Ed91 Edward came to Nordstrum in l9l8, and became one of Nordstrum's most famous athletes. He played on the football, bas- ketball and baseball teams. His fine play- ing has helped to make Nordstrum famous in the athletic line. He has also been a member of the R. O. T. C. Nordstrum will miss you, Edward.

.S'Tl'lx' Virgin' .5'i.l'f4'4'Il Frances E. judge lfrances is so tall KU she has to get her dresses made to orderwbut then it's nice to be unusual-so says Frances. I can't tell you much about her because she refuses to reveal her history, but I think she intends to get married 'some day. Paul H. Schwartzwalder Paul is noted mostly for his little name. The teachers love to write it on their two by four absence slips. Too bad he wasnt a girl and could have a chance to change it. Names are not everything, so cheer up. We had a strong reserve basket-ball team be- cause of Paul. Nelson C. J. Mac Alpine Nelson as captain in the R. O. T. C., has performed his duty well and is liked by all. We think his future work should be fruit peddling because of the voice he cultivated in giving commands. In the Twelfth Night and Comedy of Errors he was the Duke. As a duke he makes a good violin player. Marion E. Denton G GPete5 7 Seen, but not heard. Contrary to the usual rule. Marion is one of the quietest members of the gradu- ating elass. ln spite of her silent habit, she is one of the most prominent members of the Betsy Ross Cilee Club, and the twelfth grade representative to the House Council. Among other things, Nlarion is a good shot with a rifle, and one of the best friends any one could have. Marion intends to become a teacher, and will attend the Ypsilanti Normal School.
