E MADARA 25 WILLIAM KAKARA WILLIAM KEATING Bill Bill JO lt took some earnest sleuthinpr to find the real facts about Ilill. but here they are. Surprise one climbing more and higher eurbings in bigger and faster motor-cycles is not his only aspiration! Ile has a dilettantt-'s taste for dra- matics, music. and literature. but his destiny will probably be shaped by the camel's hair brush. However. we do not. know whether to watch the comic supplement or the Louvre for our tal- ented elassmate's creations. E KM ETZ .loe is a uuiet lad who is very brilliant in his studies. His favorite study in his senior year was chemistry, so he joined the Science club and was an active member of that orizanization. Joe also served on the class dance eonnnittee durini.: his senior year. EDWARD KOLLAR nEdvv With a great interest in science Ed has been a faithful member of Science clubs. His outstanding: ability in dra- lnatics was shown in the Junior play in which he had a leading part. He was a member of the Honor Society and was our business manager of the 1936 fiardserabble. Silent, dark. and handsome. 'Tis rumored there's a sweet little thimr over in Pontiac who awaits visits from our Bill. Bill has been basketball man- ager the last two years. Remember Hill on the All-Staters? IRVIN KOENIG nAxlen Axle is full of fun and popular wit h everyone. He was on the Junior Prom committee and was active and Meteorological clubs. in the H He played i-Y on the class basketball team his fresh- man year and was manager' of varsity football team his senior Year. IRENE KOOI the Irene has been a member of the Latin and Home Economics clubs. With the superb freshness of the Dutch Flower Girl in her fiower-like complexion and scintillating expression, Irene's blue eyes, glancing: up. seem to challenge, Is there one fairer than I? , OMA A. KRAMER AMER WARREN KREIER Pete Amos JO Unfortunately the musical organiza- tions are limited to five: the Music club, band, Girls' tllee. Mixed Glee and orchestra. 'l'he enthusiasm with which Oma has entered each of these makes us think she would join more were the number indefinite. Pete and her asso- ciates seldom know a dull moment. HN OREN KUHN Deacon Who'll carry on the F. I . A. after Oren's gone? ls that new coupe a result of the rise in potatoes? I7eacon's eager mind and vociferous recitations will be missed next year. but destiny can spare America's future most: sci- enti As all has l'l'SS She and ble fic farmer no Ionizer. HELEN P. LVONS a member of the Junior Prom and the class dance committees. Helen played a yzenerous part in the sue- of our important social events. was also a member of the Latin French clubs. and the Hardscrab- staff. Where will Helen do her dreaming: when she no longer has any study halls? LIONEL MACMILLAN Debator, machinist, musician. radio expert, and scientist, Lionel has a wide field from which to choose his future occupation, but our guess is that his musical talent will prevail. He has been a member of the band. the orches- tra, and the Music club. Given any instrument and five seconds to adapt himself to it, Lionel will set feet a-dancing: and heads a-bobbing. Amos has been a regular member of the Boys' and Mixed Glen clubs his last two years. and was a member of thi. Science club his first year. His outside activities, so he claims, consist of four black eyos. a bump on the fore- head, and a broken arni. More power fn you, Amos, EDWARD LARKIN Ml J0 Edward tl.ord t'lit-sterlit-lull Larkin came from Oak t'Iitl' lliuh School in Dallas, 'l't-xas. in IEISZIL llis history in school centers around the track and varsity football teams, the Junior Prom committee, and the Dramaties and Latin clubs. His history on Main Street centers around several successful business enterprises in printing. adver- tising. and automobiles. LDRED EDITH MACKEY tiMiIi1 Wisdom appreciated at exam time. Takes committee and club responsi- bility seriously. Her Virtzil always with her. Dot-sn't like homework it interferes with her readinxz. Without, her characteristic smile, her friends would not recognize hcl'. ...jo-Jo., Has anyone ever asked a favor of Jo-.lo that he has not readily done with a pleasant smile? lie was a member of the Latin and liiolouy clubs during: his freshman and sophomore years, and also participated in class basketball his second and third years. lle enjoys huntim: and fishing.

HN SMITH HOLLAND cancun Here is one of the happy-go-lucky members of our class. He is full of fun and a favorite with everyone. Tcasing, preferably the fair sex. is his main hobby. During the past. three years he has been an active member of the l . F. of A.. serving as vice-presi- dent this year. .lack is the proud pos- scssor of a number of prize-winning sheep, among them the inimitable Gracie. HARLEY EDWARD INGLE U1-eddyo 'l'cd is another carefree boy who has really settled down these last two years into a hard-working studious lad. However. he did take time out from his studies for class basketball, track, and football. Ted belonged to the Modern History club. and was a member of the class dance committees during his freshman and junior years. Hokie Donald has been primarily interested in having a good time in and out of school. He went out for track during his freshman and sophomore years. ily following an industrial course. he be- came especially interested in metal- work. RITA ANN HORANEY Ilita's four years have been plcasaotly strewn with acknowledgments of her merit, among which was the second place in the bookkeeping contest, which she won her junior year. She was a member of the Commercial and Home Economic clubs, and of the senior class dance committees. JOHN FRANCIS JAMES Jesse We wonder where .lcsse gets all his jokes since his supply never seems lo diminish. At least we hope that they won't. He was a member of the funn. mercial club :luring his sophomore year. and also participated in class basketball his first and second years. Most ol' his spare time is spent at the Times Press. RONALD FRANCIS JARDINE ERWIN H. JAUCH Beans Nouns, as he is called by his pals. is known as evcryone's friend. Man is at creature of moods. but no one has been able to erase the kindly good- liumorcd smile from llcan's face. He is a fellow who must always get up on the right side of thc bell. Ronald has been a member of thc Latin club for two years. DANIEL ORVILLE JENKINS Jenks lfall Danny spot-cl. When bigger and faster automobiles are made. he'll drive 'cm. t'lever boy with puppets. Will probably be u famous short-story writer some day. He is a lover of good books, so life for him and with him will always be interesting. FRANK JONEN, JR. liig butter and egg man. Survivor of the colossal l ornof-.lonen motor-cycle catastroplic. Frank was a member ol' the track team and also the class basketball team. His line work in varsity football is something of which he may be especially proud. ALPH JONES ..Dud.. lt was partly through ltalph's etforts that thc school was so well represented in the state musical contests. A mem- ber of thc Science. French, Hi-Y, and Meteorological clubs. the .lunior Prom and the track team. Ralph was an obvious choice for the National Honor Society his senior year. Erwin and his famous dm: Schnaps are familiar figures on Main Street: it must be nice to have a four-footed newspaper carrier. Being interested in science. Erwin was a member of the Science and Physics clubs. and also won honors in thc commercial depart- ments. KATHERINE E. JOHNSON ..Kay.. The Commercial, Science. and English clubs have claimed Kay's extra-curri- cular attention. Though Katherine is probably the quieter half of the John- son children. her genial smile, tolera- tion, and wit have made her no less well liked. VERA JONEN Here is another person to whom credit is due for the success of the senior class dance. Vera has been a well- oualified member of the Commercial club since its organization. Your best wishers can only hope, Vera, that others do no worse for you than you do for them. ELIZABETH JANE JOPLING Bobbie And all that is beautiful shall abide. liobhie has been a member of thc Com- mercial club and the baseball team. Dancing, singing. and playing the guitar, she beguiles her idle hours. Hollywood stand byl l34l
