' - .1 ' if Seniors OZ RO BUCKMAN i'Ozzie', is very tall and manly! He's most business-like! You just ought to sec l1im work in an orchard. He surely knows what to do. And wouldn't you like to know what kind of experimenting he's going to do? Ask him! llaybe it's electrical. though, because he's planning on being an electrical engineer. LLOYD BURKE :'l'oidie sang in Pinafore , in which he was ahlc to show us how nice he will look in a uniform when he enters Annapolis to train as a naval officer. He was, also, a member of the S. II. S. state championship swim- ming team and of the second football team this year. l'oidie gets a big kick out of saying, Oh! Yeh! just as if he did not understang a thing you are talking about. You have to put the spotlight on Poidie',, too, when it comes to dancing, because he can surely live up to his reputation as the Dancing Kid ! B IZSSI li BURTON ltcssit-'s name fits her perfectly-she is so very quiet and hashful. In fact, a little hird says that she spends a good deal of hcr time hoping a man isn't looking at her while she waits on the corner for Alice. But even so, llcssie is a wonderful cook, and licr candy-Oh, man, it's too heavenly for expression! lt seems kind of too had for her to prepare at the San Jose Teaeher's College to sprout the young idea, when she might he making goodies for some of us poor mortals. RO B ERTA l3'USl-I lf you want a true blue pal. take Bobby, She arrived here two years ago full of pep, and is still in the same condition. Remember, the perfect boy in Pucker Up and VS'histlc at the September ireshmau reception, the tallest of ladies the year before, and the niggah in the last one? 'Twas Bohhy ! This year, when sho hasn't been helping on the student control, or. the G. X 'l'. work. she's been talking either to G. D. or ltobhye and Margie',. .ESTH ER CARIGIET S is that sparkling-eyed little girl with the smile that won't rub off. Angelina says she's easy to get along with, amiable, and nice, and she certainly gives that impression to all who gaze upon that joyous countenance. Of course this happy disposition must give vent to music, and we found Carr0t's blithesomcness displayed in both 1 inaf0re and The Pirates of Penzance. 2, .ETA CA RLI N lilcta Carlin is never seen without her tall partner, Kath- ryn Bliley. liven when she tinishes high school, she is V going to stay with Kat , for they will attend teachers' college together. This attractive little miss is very frmd of both swimming and tennis. VVell, Kat ,'don't let lileta eat too much rich food at Normal because you know her ambition is not to get fat. lfl ELIEN C.-XRLIN My ambition is to dance my way into the heart of a rich haelielorf' Shrimp informed us with decided seri- ousness. and she really means it. She certainly started well when she danced the hornpipe in Pinafore with lEd. and the Associated Girls have enjoyed her varied eliaraeterizations. lElondy is just a charming tempera- niental. sentimental. excitahle. good sport, always ready to laugh and never melancholy. 15

Seniors NEIL AUSTlN PEA JAM ELB AGN MAR Cupid never says thc same thing twice. That might possibly get him into trouble some day, but we sincerely hope not. I-Ie is always hangin' round and is willing to help out wherever he can. Neil doesn't know what he wants to be, but we all know he helped the seniors win the cross country rung so he'll doubtless win a place in the race of life. RL BAKER That cheerful, smiling, blue-eyed girl is none other than Pearl Baker. Instead of working on committees, she has been making others happy by her sweet winning way during her high school days. She declares she is going to waste time until she is thirty. then find a rich bachelor and settle down. Oh Gee! ther expressionj she c1oesn't. know how she is going to waste time until then, ES BERTHOLF HJll11l'l'llG!!-in greatest claim to fame was his purple cords , Other notable characteristics of the said Jimmie were his amiable disposition. personality, and selt' admitted good looks . llc did not take part in athletics but spent his spare time in developing' the often lacking organ, commonly referred to as the brain. Last but not the well known least, fric-nfl t'.limmie was at mean stepper on the also well known dance tloor. ERT BIDXVELL Across is Elbert Bidwell, better known as lliddy. lt' seems unnatural not to see him fretting over his studies or his banjo. lliddy 'l1as taken an active interest in music during his stay in S. H. S., having played in the . . 2 z ' 'X ' . ore.', llc is just his jokes in this as has, also, the for the Big S his studies after not yet decided. band and oichestr 1, ind sung in Pinaf as witty as his nickname suggests, and year's G. and T. have proven this fact, stunt that he planned for his adviser Circus. Tliddy expects to continue leaving S. ll. S., but just where. he has ES BORERG Art! Art! And more Art! Agnes just radiates art. Doesift she look just as a feminine artist should? Ever since Bobby came into prominence by drawing the best cut for the 1920 annual in her sophomore year, she has been bringing forth-with her pencil. pen and brush- posters, cuts, and various objects of artistic beauty. For instance, she is responsible for a number of the hand- somest cuts in this book, and she's going tn draw pictures for magazines later! IE BOREN My lands! I have been too busy to serve on commit- tees , so says Marie lloren, one of our determined and ambitious classmates. Marie is preparing to go to San Jose Tcacliers' College to learn to be a kindergarten teacher. She finds time for other things besides study. however. for she loves to ride horseback and eat good food. XVe are sure that Marie will do well in her teachk ing. for she is patient and kind. PAUL BOSTON Paulo is one of the most genuine, perscvcring, and earnest of all our athletes, but he doesnt confine all his time to football, crew, and track. Ile certainly has a keen sense of humor. And his ambition is to be a doctor. The way he used to treat 'em rough in football kind of makes one hesitate to call for his future professional Trvicles, though, when he becomes an M. D. at Los - nge es. 14

ER CARROLL Elmer is very fond oi arguing and loves to give his opinions, which, by the way. usually show good judg- ment and are considered quitc valuable. Elmer hails from llanteca, and we know that he will use some oi his good judgment toward thc welfare of his native town. Elmer is a good sport and is liked by all his classmritfs. CLARENCE CLEM IZNSON Oh, what a pal is Clem ! Yes, and some :ambition he has, too! He wants to tour the world with-, though he docsn't care to work, one of the necessities ill the preparation for such a feat. llut he's far from lazy! To prove this, just consider that he turned out for crew and football and was successful in both. STELLA CR.-XXNVFO RD Our Stella is well known for her sunny, smiling face and her quiet. unassuming capability, She did very good work for the Guard and Tackle weekly the last year she was here.

Says she has him all picked out, too! llut K'Slats is just as impulsive. merry. cart-irce. and enthusiastic over every- thing as any girl who ever lived. GILBERT CURTIS ORA Gilbert Curtis, the intellectual looking senior, has no nickname: so we will bestow upon him the nom-de-plume of 1nt'elligence . Intelligence entered Stockton High School from San Leandro two years ago and proceeded to brighten S. ll. S. with his unlimited supply of knowl- edge. Like all great men he has great ambitions, but then. contrary to all rules of thc gaine, he hasu't quite decided what they are. CUTTS Ora. although very dignified, is cheerful and friendly when you know her. The poor girl has been and is still searching for her ambition, She looks as if she would make a good stenographer or-a good house-keeper. If you are around Ora very long, you are sure to hear her say, tJh. don't you think so? , or Do I? 16
