CHow about it, gi1'ls?D He is on this year's track team and is also a member of the Dramatic Club. He was the grass-widower in the junior play, Clarence, and, also took part in the senior play, Nancy Ann. He has had plenty of experience as a re- porter, in both the operetta and Sham, However, he says he is going out into the world to seek his fortune. Here's luck to him? Introducing Williaiii Tervo, the boy With the drawl and the ready smile. Everyone remembers him as the dashing young hero of theisenior play, 'fNancy Ann. He will probably go to college in the coming fall. His favorite pastime is scouting of any size, shape, or dimension. What girl's heart wouldn't skip a beat at the appearance of that dimpling smile? And this is Victor N. Tompkins, who starred in Miss Civilization, '.'Clarence, and also took the part of the mentally- deficient hero in The Governor's Daugh- ter. During the past two semesters he has made a very competent president of the G. O. Those who attended last year's Junior Prom will remember Vic as the guest speaker.
