22 U P I - D A H JOHN FEECK “Johnny” Clifton Heights Johnny! Johnny! Yes, Ma. Ah. here is the best boy we have in our class. An athlete? No. a big social man? No. just plain Johnny. Then what is he? Ah. yes, a fine fellow, a friend worthy of the name. What more can one expect? If you want to find him. look in the bookkeeping room. He's sure to be there; hard at work, either at his work or else helping somebody else. But no matter what his job. he always works hard. Committees—Christmas Basket (4). Senior Final. ANNA FETTERS “Ann” Kirklyn Here she is! The girl with the cheerful disposition and sunny smile. Ann is always found where there is a class activity in prog- ress. She has been one of our best pals since the Eighth Grade, and during all that time has been one of the best rooters our teams ever had. We were all wondering what the attraction was during the junior year in the typing room, but we soon found it to be—now guess! Never mind, Ann, the world needs a lot more like you—so keep on smiling. |HT«-tta . {. -I): Dramas Club I): Class Basketball (1. 4): Track (I); Gym Exhibition (1); Tennis (3): Christmas Basket Committee (4). LILLIAN REBECCA FIELDING “Sis” Drcxel Hill Sis is a very versatile young lady. She is one of our spelling stars, an athlete, and last but not least, champion peanut eater of the class. Sis sure is an ardent fan at all our games, and never misses our plays or dances. As you notice, she is one of the few girls in the class who believes in straight hair. In spite of her many activities, and the task of keening up in her studies. Sis still has three nights a week to give to “him! Monitor !); Class Basketball (1. 2): Spelling Team (I); Glee Club (1. 2, 3. 4). Committees—Monitor Nominating (1). Christmas Basket (I). ELSIE V. FLY “Else East Lansdownc This little brunette is very industrious, but she likes a good time. too. Elsie is one of those rare people who are always happy. The basketball team has always had lots of cheer from this senior. In fact, the teams will certainly miss Elsie's support. Her smiles and her songs will be missed by Mr. Haupt, because for three years she has been one of the best workers in the operetta. We know there is no need to wish Elsie success in her efforts to become a successful bookkeeper. Glee Club (1. 4): Junior-Senior Reception Committee (3). ANNA ELIZABETH GESHWIND “Ann” Highland Park Here's to Ann—tall and slim, full of sunshine and vim; a remarkable student, a steadfast friend. Although Ann has known our halls for only two years, she has acquired such a place in our esteem that we cannot remember having been without her. We think the various typewriter companies had better think up some new designs for pins, tor if Ann wore all her medals for typing, she would make an old war veteran look shabby. And sav, have you noticed a certain light-haired young man who seems to enjoy our plays? Underwood Typing Award (4).

24 U P I - D A H JOSEPH THOMAS GEUTING. JR. “Joe East Lansdownc Well, it certainly seems strange that a fellow from the West should come here and show us how to debate, but then Lincoln came from Springfield; so perhaps that accounts for Joe's ability. Joe tells us that his hobby is reading, and he sure is well versed in books. If you hear a fellow with a slow drawl in his talk, you will know it is Friend Joe. Always in a hurry with his slow way of walking, always encouraging and always smiling, that's Joe. You can't find a better friend. Monitor (I): In-butlng (4); Committee on Revision of Code (4). RICHARD B. GOODALL “Dick Aldan Here is one of the school’s all-around fellows. Here is one of those chaps who is willing to be of assistance at any time. You have but to ask. and Dick is right there with the g »ods. We might say that Dick in his capacity of basketball manager, helped on Messrs. Milne and Herzog more than a lot during the last season. Dick hopes to attend prep school in the near future and we know he will get along splendidly and successfully. Basketball Manager (l); I IS-V 4); Monitor (2). Committee» Dance (3). Christmas Basket (1. I). GERTRUDE M. GOODWIN “Gertie” Sharon Hill Look out! Here comes that big political boss. If you're not careful she'll argue you into something and make you join her Red Bolshevik Party. She just squelches you with one blow. Gertie says. You can't keep a Goodwin down.” and we believe it! Gert does very little around school—according to Gertrude. Of course. A’s in chemistrtv. math, and English arc mere nothings. So. too. is enough Upi-Dah work for six people. Gert’s official capacity on the debating team was commissary. She supplied the peanuts. All hail the Bolsheviks! Upi-Dah (2. 4); Record Staff (4): Junior Number (3): Fideles (4): Honor Roll 1. 2. 3. I); Kngllsh Prize (3): fpl-Dah Advertising Prize (3); Debating (4). MAE GOODWIN Highland Park Mae! Doesn't the name itself tell you she is quiet? But she’s not too quiet for us. Although Mae can tickle the ivories, she wouldn't let you know it. so we’ll tell you she can play swell!” Can she do arithmetic? We'll say she can! In fact, she is good in all her studies. We call her Helpful Henry because if you ever need any information whatsoever, she'll help you out. Her blue- gray eyes denote steadiness, and we know she will succeed in what- ever she attempts. FLORENCE ALICE GORKE “Floss” Highland Park Florence may be classed as one of our really quiet girls, although her most intimate friends know that beneath that quietness lurks room for plenty of laughter and humor. To know her is to like her.” certainly fits our Floss. We all agree that we look to Florence as one of our champion typists and piano players. We often wonder how she can make the keys go so fast, but then, we remember that “Practice makes perfect. Yes, sir! The Commer- cial Department is proud to claim Floss.
