, -sith WAVERLY PEERS lf she will she will and you may depend on it. But if she 'wou't she wonft so that's an end of il. This is true of Waverly or Redd, as she is known to her friends, for arguments are her chief hobby. When we see a curly red head bobbing up and down and hear someone talking furiously you know it is Redd in an argument, and she usually comes out on top. Whether her name Redd applies to her beautiful hair or her disposition, we will leave to you to judge, anyway,she seldom leaves anyone in doubt as to her opinion of them. BENJAMIN HXUBBARD Benjamin, better known as Fatty, has been with us for a long while, starting the local grind in the vicinity of the Fourth Grade. His charming ways and pleasant smiles have found a permanent place in the hearts of his classmates, especially with a group of blond maidens. Amorous tendencies have not altogether composed the life of our Business Manager. His has been a full coterie of Junior League Programs, a leading part in social activities and an athletic endeavor that has netted for him a monogram. His spectacular guarding was material to many a basketball victory. This same tact in athletics transformed into business initiative, characterizes Benjamin, who we feel will some day demand the re- spect of the business world.

NIABEL DRINKER Speaking of a woman's tongue reminds us that Dinkey holds the record for speed in talking, some of which has been displayed in her Public Speaking, when we remember that curly haired people are said to be good natured, and red headed ones hot tempered, we understand why Dinky is so interesting. She is our cheeriest, jollist, most companion- able and an all round sport. In Chemistry she is usually found hanging out of the window for fear of an explosion, but never- theless, we are expecting great things from you Dinkey, so don't disappoint us. M ILDRED DANIELS Never Do Today What You Can A D0 Tomorrow ' What would the Class of '24 be without Tommy? She is the best pal a fellow ever had and a wonderful sport. When it comes to studying-well, there are things she likes better. There is only one thing Tommy cannot do, that is to get to class on time, but we attribute this to her carefree happy-go-lucky disposition. Some day in the Halls of Fame we expect to see Tommy's name among the great artists.

Tag is a good sport and has one of the best dispositions in the class, for she never loses her temper. She is a diligent student as is shown by the good grades she makes. Besides this she is the star giggler of the class and truly believes in the old adage, Laugh and the world laughs with you. She is rightfully named Tag for she is always asking, Where is Lola ? We feel sure Thelma will make a great success some day, especially teaching a school-of fish. RUBY DURRETT As sweet a girl as one could meet. Ruby is a very quiet little girl but she possesses a will of her own. When she talks she usually gives valuable information. Ruby joined our class in the Junior year from Glendale. We are sure she is a valuable addition to our class. One of her favorite pastimes is seeking Bates. . Home Economics has been one of Ruby's favorite studies. She was one of the few to win a prize on cooking last year. We expect she will teach for awhile and then --?
