JAMES EDVVARD MOORE ll JIM!! Grand Gorge, New York Baseball '25, '26, Basket ball '25, '26, Athletic Council '26. J im is such a good sport that he has always been a fav- orite not only in his own class but with all the student body and the faculty. As a classic dancer 'fJim cannot be beaten. Jim is always full of fun and was the life of the party on the trip to VVashington. KATHLEEN JENNIE BEGGS ' ' KATE,, South Gilboa, New York t'Kate always loved to play-now it's work all day. Kathleen was a member of our freshman class of '23. She hails from the wilds of South Gilboa. She has never taken part in the activities of the school very much because of having to go back and forth from home. So at first we thought her rather quiet but now we know better. She is full of enthusiasm about school but oh, you should hear l1er rave about a Ho1iday! MAY ELIZABETH VVILLIS 6 I 7 7 Stamford, New York She is always willing to sing or play Thus to help us along our way. Mae is our class song bird and never warbles so sweetly as when singing Bonnie Dooneinl. She came to us in our Senior year and although she took no part in athletics she was always there to give Ken a rousing cheer. However, sl1e took an ac- tive part in the entertainments of class and school. At first May was undecided about going to Washington with us but was finally persuaded to go by one whose influence is very great. Her presence added greatly to our enjoyment.

RUTH MARION BUCK iiRUTHIE,, Stamford, New York Learning's no labor, call it what you will. Business Manager Camera '26, Salutatorian. Ruth is the youngest of our Seniors and is one of the best students in the class. She put up quite a race to be valedietor- ian but lost by less than one per cent. She is one of the few in the class who has spent her entire four years here. Ruth is very sensitive to shades of red. She likes auburn hair very niuch but has an intense dislike for Scarlet Fever. She expects to devote, not her life but, the next few years to tl1e instruction of the young.
