ELIZABETH AXDERSOX Fair of face, iiobic of heart. Ash Street must be noted for good-looking brunettes for Kliz- abeth is certainly a fine exnni- ple of feminine pulchritude. Where Mary ' s interests lay, there are Elizaht-th ' s also — reading, hiking, bicycling, ice and roller skating. Glee Club 1, 2. ROBERT AXDERSOX A good face is the best let- ter of recommendation. ■ ' Bob ' s cheerful air and ready smile h s made him oni- of our most likeable class- mates. From the inexhaustil-h- supply of historical data ln- po sesses, we think Bob is destined to teach U. S. History. Senior Play Cast 4; Frenili Club 3. JEAX BAXTER ]Ve leoiild not haz ' e her otherwise. Jean, hailing fioni Xew York, joined us in our junior year. She has spread much laughter ■with her never ending fun and joking. With a voice as fine as her ' s her future is assured. Wf would judge that she is fond of chewing gum, niUvsic periods, and Saturday nights. DORIS BEARCE All zee ask is to be let alone. Doris has a sweet personal- ity under the cover of her quiet reserved manner. The fortunate few who have been honored with her friendship will tell you this. She has an ever-ready smile to give us In passing. Commercial Club 4. BERXICE BISBEE The sight of yon is good for sore eyes. Bunny has a charmng mih- and a grand sense of humor. In addition to her beauty she does very well at pounding a typewriter and shorthand notes. Her favorite pastime is walk- ing (not alone). Senior Play Committee.
