THE 19 2 3 SENIOR RECORD :: DORIS Don is Hawthorne Bownk General Edward Everett “Whence is thy learning f Hath thy toil O'er books consumed the midnight oil ” Extra! Probe on dividends discloses that the Standard Oil Co. has been making its excessive profits on sale of oil to an enterprising student of V. H. S. Extra! Such may be the cry of the American newsboy in the near future: for we ordinary children cannot conceive that any mortal girl could master her studies so perfectly as Doris does, without burning the midnight oil. Any- how. we reproach ourselves and almost envy her when we realize the truth of the proverb that. “Diligence is always rewarded.” Salutatorian. BROWNIE Wh.i.iam Kenneth Browne Technical Philomathean “T tc game is up” School is over. Yes. and Ken” has devoted enough of his life to it. The partnership of V. H. S. and Brownie has been dissolved. The first partner remains in town, but to carry on football, basketball, and baseball without this second part- ner. Brownie, is what we call a very hazardous undertaking. “Brownie” is a man with a terrible “rep.” It is said of him that no girl has ever failed to have a case on him three minutes after she has met him. Some of them stick, others strike. Glee Club '20. '21. ‘22. Vice-President '22. Clnss Baseball '21. '22. '23. Clans Basketball '20. '21. '22. '23. Baseball '20. ‘21. '22. '23. Captain '23.

THE 1923 SENIOR RECORD Thompson Busako Technical Edward Everett What is mind. Xo matter. What is matterf Never mind. We mean by this that Blisard sometimes tries to think a problem through, but just as often he doesn’t bother about it. As business manager of this book, he demonstrated his ability to put across a difficult proposition. Another good quality, if he really has it. is that girls are not supposed to have any influence upon his emo- tions. (?). A true and dependable fellow is Blisard. Science Club '22, '23.

BLIZ BECKY' Rebecca Frances Bkandrikf General Philomathean Earth's noblest thing—a woman perfected Much to our joy, this graduate of 22 4» did not leave us entirely after Commencement. She comes, she goes—and her passing is like the sun- beam; now we have light, now darkness. Her heart’s stolen? How can that be. when the kid- nappers fight among themselves for the possession or the prize? Besides being a good student Rebecca gave many a speech in Assembly, she plays the piano, and plies the pen. and in each cheek, she hath a pretty dimple! February Graduate. Glee Club '20.

THE 1923 SENIOR RECORD Joseph C. Bii.fam a.ntk Classical Edward Everett There lies a deviltry beneath his mild exterior” Joe has the art of bluffing down to perfection and makes a hit with all the teachers, until he gets found out, and then—! Impersonation is one hobby of his and assuming the mask of exagger- ated etiquette another. These qualities make him an excellent actor. “Teacher, may I ask a ques- tion?”—thereupon Joe takes up so much time with his objectified interrogation points that ordinarily there is no time for a recitation. We hope that some day he will give evidence of having absorbed some of the answers to his own questions. French Play. Class Play. •BUF Rebecca Wake Campbell Commercial Edward Everett “.I maiden with a certain charm That wins the ieorld’s respect.” Rebe” is just plain good! She is kind and so sympathetic that she puts the rest of us to shame. Such a friend too! It takes more than an ordi- nary person to break Itebe’s faith in life, because she understands folks so well. And oh. the hurt look that comes in those blue eyes if anyone says anything unkind. But there’s a great husky chap ready to protect her, who probably holds the “Kee” to her heart.
