XI-34 DOROTHY WADSWORTH Our version of Hedy Lamarr, and a musician on the side. Her fondness of navy blue has ob¬ viously been replaced by a love for maroon and white. ELEANOR WOLFMAN Tiny but not timid. Eleanor is a good debator and is also a great lover of music. LAURIE WEBER This well groomed blue-eyed brownette has a weakness for drapes. The chief objects of her ambition are Car-men and money. XI-34 GLADYS BOIKMAN Very outspoken but always full of gags. She doesn’t believe in wiping the grin off her face too often. CHRIS CADZOW Chris is the main reason that we made a showing in inter¬ room basketball. He has gained a name as an all-round athlete and student. LILLIAN DENTRY Lillian’s comeback to any re¬ mark is quicker than an Indian rubber ball. Nothing gets by Lillian’s ready wit. RUSSELL FLISS Fliss the flutist has been ac¬ cused of not knowing the differ¬ ence between a trumpet and a flute. During the opera Russ was a member of l’orchestre.” ESTHER GONOR This little bombshell of Room 34 packs a terrific sense of hu¬ mor in her half-pint frame. Per¬ sonality personified — that’s Esther. CARL GUSBERTI Our president is known and liked far and wide. Gus is al¬ ways on the bit” with a joke. “Favorite song, When Iris Eyes Are Smiling.” HAROLD HAPICHUK “Happy” Hapichuk and his cla¬ rinet are running Woody Her¬ man competition. (In fact Woody isn’t even in the same class). Happy has his own orchestra and they are (still) trying to prove that what they play is music. KEN HAYWARD Ken is a hockey star who played with the Rangers (the Dutch¬ man). He is also an up and coming student but we have a hard time keeping him up and making him come. Ken is the Social Rep. TONY HICKAWAY Tony is the famous flying wing of the All-Star Rugby Team. Although his chief interests lie in rugby and hockey he likes to play other games too. (Ha!) He is our sports-captain, of course. PHYLISS HUGHES Phyliss is our blonde-haired beauty. She’s always there sug¬ gesting something for the room. She is also suggestive for the boys. JACK KIRKLAND One of the Brilliants in our room. Jack is always shining. (See what Max Factor does for you, girls.) Did a great job as a pirate in the opera. LOUIS LEACHMAN This little student is very seldom heard (over the uproar). If you ever see him, you are probably in the late room. BILL MILLER Bill is a likable character who is usually responsible for all the outbursts in the room. Life with Bill is a tunnel of love. You never know what’s coming nex t. LENORE MIND ELL Comes into the classification of a girl who doesn’t say much. (Eds. note: We didn’t think there were any.) Lenore is so quiet that most of her classmates don’t even know where she sits. ' ILENE PATSON Ilene is the girls’ sports-captain. If you like them with looks, and personality, boys, this is it. She is good in sports, but better in shorts. Page Twenty-five

GRACE LINNEY Grace returned to Tech after two years of bliss, to sing her way through the year. Intends to be a nurse. “Nursie, come over here and hold my hand.” RITA LUDWIG This Chick spent her school days in the city and week-ends at the village. Rita left us early to make her entrance into the business world. MARION LYSAK Our efficient secretary is a quiet lass and our shorthand expert. Is the reason for that fluttering heart in Room 22. MERLE MANDEL Always found at Bella’s side. Seems to be bubbling over with energy and laughter — until we take P. T. The life of any party. CARMEN MATHEWS Carmen, whose flowing tresses are the envy of every blonde in the room, is interested in many forms of art. She believes life begins at 4 P.M. PAULINE ONUFREE Every time there’s a job to be done. Polly does it. She is al¬ ways ready and willing to help. A hard worker, she takes part in all school activities. BELLA RABER The source of our joke pot. Her sunny disposition gets her places — her marks don’t. Bella often comes in late but the bus- driver always gets the blame. ROZZIE RADINOVSKY Rozzie is our hard working secretary and tres petite artiste. A lover of French, her first choice for hit of the year is, “Darling, Je vous aime beau- coup.” SYLVIA RODIN “Live wire Sylvia,” active in sports, and other activities. What’s so interesting on the last page of pictures in the 1945 Torch,” Sylvia? BERNICE “BUNNY” SCHICK 11-24’s hep lil athlete is a classy forward on the basketball team but not too backward other¬ wise. This chick has mobs of men, including one she’d like to get Ridd of. NOREEN SCOTT Real saleswoman—Noreen top¬ ped Room 24’s record in col¬ lecting Torch adds. If you need a boost in moral, go and see Noreen, she’s always cheerful and happy. CORINNE SEGAL The girl behind the lovely com¬ plexion and dreamy light brown eyes. What is it about Corinne that seems to “get” Miss U know who. ROSALINE SHUSTER Rosaline is another of those Lord Selkirk girls who hates cooking and housework, but that won’t make any difference to her fate. DOLORES SMIGLE Dolores is an eager beaver in and out of school. She excels in scholastics, sports, and dis¬ cussions of which her favorite topic is a certain blonde. FRANCES STERGAR This green-eyed brunette knows how to work and is another of Room 24’s typing experts. She did a first rate job as our Fair representative. JEAN TABACK “Jinx” is the girl with the deep blue eyes whose terrific piano renditions were the bright spots in our music course. Her private life’s a secret between Sylvia and herself. ELEANOR WILKIE Our tall, graceful blue-eyed blonde causes a lot of excite¬ ment around the school, espe¬ cially in high pumping on field day. Scholastics are her task and Johnnie is her guy. SHIRLEY WINSTON Her lovely hair is her main attraction. Seems to be un¬ usually interested in a certain rugby star. Page Twenty-four

ERNIE ROSS Ernie is the red-headed wit of Room 34. He is always ready to pass a remark your way, and often its more than a remark. Ernie is also vice-president. ELDA SCOTT Scotty gets along famously with Ross because she is willing to laugh at his jokes (?). This shows that Scotty must have a great sense of humour. ALLAN SHETTLER The other half of the Purdy- Shettler team. (They must be perfectly matched) We wonder if he is as fast in other things as he is in basketball. Also the possessor of a “personality smile . JACK STEFANSON Jack is a fellow who comes and goes like a revolving door. A swell guy, he never says much, but when started he is hard to unwind. ANNE- TURCHIN Anne is one of the volleyball players who helped win the championship. She agrees with everybody in more ways than one. MICKEY TOFFIN When in school Mickey is quiet, but when he is out, who knows? If success depends upon popu¬ larity among classmates, Mickey should go a long way. XI-37 HAROLD ALTMAN All Harold desires to take with him as a remembrance of Tech, are its girls. Harold’s inventive mind proved a great aid during the fair—his chemical game that is. WILFRED ATAMANCHUK Wilfred’s marks range from A+ to A. Darn that A how did it get in there? To Room 37’s bashful boy we wish the best of luck when he writes for the scholarship. SHIEKY BROWNSTONE Tall, dark and good looking, Shieky our sports captain is the instigator of all Room 37’s athletics. He and Mr. Pastuck are still trying. He has a serious interest in socialism and girls’ basketball games. Page Twenty-six KAY WATSON Always ready to dive into any joke, as well as into her favor¬ ite pool, Kathleen excells in laughing and swimming. (Done separately, we hope.) EVELYN WESTLEB Evelyn is a nice girl to have around, especially when assign¬ ments are due. This co-opera¬ tion on Evelyn’s part, a pleasant personality and that rare com¬ modity known as brains, make her a well-liked classmate. ANN YAFFE Is our class secretary who is always “fixing’’ the absentee list. Is popular with the opposite sex (eh Jack?) Seems to know how to keep us out of trouble. JULIA YAREMCHUK Julia is a blue-eyed beauty who is well-liked by all. She also helped win the inter-room volleyball championship. EDDIE ZASADZINSKY This trusting soul is liberal with smiles and notes, commodities which give him a 1-A standing with his fellow classmates. XI-37 ENID CALOF Trim, graceful and witty. Enid is our idea of an all-round girl, for she is athletic, intelligent, was a cheerleader and who do you think is business manager of the Torch? Naturally. NORMAN CANTOR An A student in several sub¬ jects, the room vice-president, will likely claim a place in the “arts” (not a paint brush, but the pen). On passing under the archway to his future, he will probably make a “left” turn in preference to the “right”. NOEL CUTLER Noel’s artistry and witty re¬ marks always find him a wel¬ come place among the crowd. His doodling in all his books will cheer up many a newcomer to Tech. IRVIN DORFMAN Irvin is the boy most likely to get a Ph.D. in Chemistry as what he doesn’t know, Mr. Grusz does. Besides this he speaks French like a Frenchman — surprised?
