SHADOWS, June, 1934 ll Euretta, the Senior's fair Irish lass, will venture out into the world of business very shortly. Good luck! Her talking-, gum, and her mouth have made her distinguished around school. Besides these Miss Murphy will long be remembered by her work in the Orchestra for 1, 2, 3, 4, A.A. 1, 2, Glee Club lg Operetta 2, 4g Concert 35 Secretary of Civic Com- mittee 4. She aspires to be a stenographer but has a good chance of ending up by writing cold cream testi- monials. She says, If I Didn't Care for my complexion, it wouldn't be what it is. l I After four years of laborious work, Kenneth has reached the be- ginning of the path of life with these remarkable achievements: Vice-president of class 2, Student Council lg Hi-Y 3, 45 A.A. 3, 4: Operetta 4. Besides all these things, Kennie has a remarkable reputation for laziness. Ashworth's baby-blue eyes, his car and curly locks have made a big hit with the girls. Kenneth contemplates becoming a foresterg we believe that he'll turn out to be a floor-walker. We're wishing him luck and sending him off to the tune of his theme song, Get Goin' . Soon Ann will not be coming here any more, and so we say good- bye. In her four years she has be- come noted for her chewing, quar- reling, and those eyes of hers. Ann will leave behind her the follow- ing record: Glee Club 2, 3, A.A. 2, 3, 4, Girls' A.C. 2, 3, 4, French Club 4, and Concert 3. She will endeavor to become a kindergarten teacher when she graduates but. as all good kindergarten teachers do. Miss Mercovich probably will end up as a tight-rope walker. She is just Sweet and Simple . This year Verona will lose one of its most studious students. Miss Bergman, the noted scholar, is very quiet and loves homework and studying. In spite of her many studious endeavors, Beulah has found time to participate in: A.A. 1, 2, 3, 4, Student Council 33 Sha- dows Staff 3, French and Science Clubs 4. Beulah's aim in life is to become a Math teacher but it is a small step from this to a waitress. Between homework assignments she may often be heard singing, over her desk, Too Much Work . I 1 l i In spite of the fact that she is a very quiet girl, Lorraine has made herself noticeable in. the fol- lowing way: Girls' Glee Club 1, 2, 39 Assistant Editor of the White Hornet 4. Her besetting sin is room six and the typing class. Miss Beck hopes to be the only secretary to make good with low heels. If there is no more need for secretaries of this type she can always become a typing teacher-we think. Lorraine's philosophy of life is, lt's an Old Fashioned World After All , and who can doubt her? Upon taking her leave of Ve- rona High, Frances Carlson leaves behind her the following record: A.A. 1, 2, 3, 4, A.C. 13 Girls' Glee Club 13 Operetta 1, 2, 45 School Play 35 Traffic Commit- tee 4. Frances may be recognized by her er, er-blonde hair-and brows- ing around with her mutt. The height of Miss Carlson's ambition meet a tall, dark and hand- business man, but the senior has her picked for their fav- scullery maid. Poor girl. is to some class oritle Frances regrets that she is No- body's Sweetheart Now .

Y X ix. , X . io SHADOWS, June, l934' ,M 1. 1-'rf' I 1- - yn is 5, xf 1 ,J 1 All the ocean has not the waves that ACE manages to rig up on his head. Mr. A. Charles Ellis, Jr., upon graduating from Verona High has visions of taking over the manage- ment of one of Paris's smartest beauty salons. Between finger waving crooning Charlie has found for A.A. 1, 2, 3, 4, Operetta 2, 43 High School Play 43 Soccer 2, 33 Science Club 4, Hi-Y 3, 4. and time Ellis THINKS he is a crooner, but we think he should Learn to Croon . People with good opin- ions of themselves don't care what others think, though. Helen Jackson, known as one of! the cutest girls, will enter her ca- reer as a private secretary in the business world soon after her graduation. While Helen is not eating and thinking of Kenny , she -has found time for the following. Girls' Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4, Vice- president of Glee Club 4, Oper- etta 1, 2, 45 Concert 3, Music Ap- preciation 1. Helen has been offered a posi- tion to demonstrate the right and wrong way to wear belts. Whatta job! As mother's little helper, Helen is Happy As the Day is Long . , A celebrity of the class of '34 is the artist and cartoonist, How- ard Beams. His favorite model for his artistic endeavors is Dot Tobin. Howie has participated in the fol- lowing: A.A. 1, 2, 3, 4, Art Club 3, Hi-Y 3, 4, being vice-president during 4, Science Club 4, White Hornet Staff 4, Howard can be recognized by his favorite expression sez you! and his walk. As we have already stated, Howard hopes to be an artist, but we have good reason to believe he will become a sand- wich man. Optimistic as ever, Beams sings Build a Little Home . And this is Katherine White, al- ways present at V. H. S. physical- ly-but mentally-'? Kay's two biggest worries are her nose and men in general-. When Kay wasn't running around the halls Hirting Qthe ras- call she joined the following groups: Girls' A.C. 1, 2, 3, 45 A.A. 1, 2, 3, 4, Girls' Glee Club 1, 25 Shadows Staff 39 Operetta 1, 45 Science Club 4, French Club 4. Miss White hopes to teach but will probably end up as the rest of the unemployed teachers: A Sal- vation Army Lassie. We wonder who's Waitin' at the Gate for Katy? The time draws near for us to say good-bye to Ted. He's been here four years and soon must set out to make a name for himself in the National Grocery Company. Theodore is wrapped up in a certain Grace who ought to inspire him to higher ambitions. Ted took an active part in the following: A.A. 1, 2, 3, 4, Glee Club 3, 4, Orchestra 4, Concert 3. He may be a matinee idol if the grocery business Hops. What a hero he'd make! Magee is an ideal man and is True to her only. That is what they all say. Once a lady always a lady is what we say of 'little ' Eleanor Wickham. This smiling little card player with high stenographic ideals has been busy, very busy, these last four years. She took part in the Girls' Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 45 Concert 35 Girls' A.C. 1, 2, 3, 43 A.A. 1, 2, 3, 4. She studied Music Apprecia- tion in her Sophomore year, we wonder if she appreciated it? It is quite remarkable how such small people manage to busy them- selves about so many things- maybe it's because, as she says, I Was in the Mood . Well, Elea- nor, always stay that way!

Miss Carlson has been a member of the Art Club 1, 2, 3, 4, Music Appreciation, Girls A.C. 4. She may be easily recognized by her picture drawing and pinning her hair at the wrong time.

The best we can say for her is that, She's a Hum- dinger! With visions of being a kinder- garten teacher dancing brightly before her, Jean will start her ca- reer by first going to college. But if her teaching ability fails to convince her charges, she can al- ways get a job in the Five and Ten.
