BENEDICT DEUTSCH V Ben , or Dutch , is the possessor of a keen sense of humor. His twinkling eyes and ready grin don't fit our picture of the successful detective. Says Ben, when you are missing anything, call Sly Dutch . ELEANOR ECK El has picked the stenographer's career for her life's work. We wonder who the lucky boss will be? Her hair and pretty face would be an asset to any business concern, say we. REIDUN FALK Twinkling blue eyes and an infectious laugh spell Ray. In different mood, her inspiring reading of The Highwayman' plus other performances as a Thespian has marked her as a fine addition to Washington's galaxy of stars. EUGENE FLOODY Gene is a combination of two pleasant moods. His face reflects both the serious and the jovial sides of his personality. He will be a golf star of note, we predict, since his participation in our golf matches. CURTIS FRANDSEN Curt only in name, he happens to be one of the most helpful people we know, especially in 210. Changeable, he swerved in ambition from the ministry to or- chestra directing. Which will it be, Curt ? THOMAS GANNON After you've admired the perfection of the wave in his hair, we rise to inform you that Stub cherishes an ambition to dance well. To offset his social pre- occupations, he cultivates a natural liking for baseball. Ronmvr GARDNER Bob, the smiling football, basketball, track, art, music, and general scholastic star, will never be erased from our memories. To all boys aspiring to stardom in any activity, we point with pride to our Bob . EILEEN GELLERMAN Between her desire to be a society reporter of a drey-big newspaper, and her dreams of a blue-and-white kitchen, I has difficult half hours. Meanwhile she dances, swims, skates. RUTH CARLSON Knowing her capability, we feel sure Ruth will realize her desire to become a private secretary. Big Sisters and the Historical Society have claimed her here as a prominent member. Her private files contain newspaper clippings. TED CHRISTEA V Ted is one of those people who shine on the football field and then again know what to do with a bit of scenery back stage. His smiling face has brightened our halls like stray sunshine. EMMETT CoLA1zY The personality that wins , Emmie has been active as a member of the Student Council, stage force, and journalism departments. Moreover, he enjoys playing hockey, and in spare moments dreams of glidirg gracefully over a dance floor. COLEMAN CONNOLLY Cole --humorist, artist, scholar, and, as he himself might put it, Uambulating lexicon , all in one. For many of the sketches and much of the humor in this book, credit goes to Cole, the merry old soul. EDWARD COOK Cookie's ambition is to vault fifteen feet. A high goal, but here's to you, Ed. As president of the Council and secretary of the Science Club, Cookie gave us a sample of his all around ability. MARY CORRIGAN She's got rhythm, she's got music is the air which best describes Corry . Here we have an exceptionally graceful dancer, ambitious to become a blues singer. She has been an active member of W Club and G.A.A. ANTOINETTE CovENY Not Girl Reserves nor Jr.-Sr. Sisters nor All School Council nor school songsters have enjoyed the benefits of Toni's energy and cheer this semester. Always a good sport, she's employed daytimes, does high school work at night. ANNIE DANIELSON Danny , the all-around girl, shows her enthusiasm for sports in her selection of clubs. Her most outstanding work has been in G.A.A., W Club, and in archery. She has moreover been a faithful Student Councilor. ANTOINETTE DARIO Tony's slim form has been a popular figure at Sunlites and other prominent affairs. Vivid, quick-witted, charming, she is one of the most admired girls in school. Glee Club and Girl Reserves have enjoyed her membership. RUTH Davis Ruthie is impartial in judgment and earnest in purpose--a true Girl Reserve and an outstanding president of that organization. A little room with Gerry Scoles at Normal school for a while, then teaching--that's the forecast.

Sixteen ELLA AKESON Sunny, true to her nickname, always brings sunshine into someone's day. Blonde and jolly, she radiates happiness. No one will forget her, even tho' some prince of Sweden should make her the mistress of his castle. VERNON ANGLE Don't be dauntled by the taciturn exterior. Silent Red proves really an interest- ing, gay sort of person. He prefers hunting and fishing as hobbies, and who are we to challenge his taste? FLOYD ANDERSON Gull never was much good at Whan that Aprille---, but he certainly showed his wares as a member of WashingtOn's softball team. His fine work at first base earned him a W in that sport. MARSHALL ANDERSON Marsh has shown leadership ability during his years at our school. His Hi-Y work and its social activities have bound his friendships more closely. His ambition begins with the University, he doesn't know where it will end. VIRGINIA ANDERSON Blonde, sweet Ninna is as nice a Big Sister as anyone ever had. Her amiable discharge of Council duties has netted her many friends. She has been part of most social activities, has even graced our stage. ALTA AUSTIN Finally a girl who IS her nickname-- Tiny , But small of stature, great in deed. She was Surveyor editor, Big CD Sister, Annual staff member. She hopes to rise in the world--not in importance--just ,in height. JEROME AVERBACI-I Although holding the national title for independability in spelling, Jerry has proved that we may aways count on him for a laugh. He divides h'is leisure among tennis, dancing, and relating the merits of the home product . LORRAINE BAHR Without even shutting our eyes, we can see Lorraine's fresh face under a white starched cap and her efficient, gentle-mannered self in the appropriate uniform. Girl Reserve, Council, and Big Sisters have offered her expression here. ROY BEAUDET Not too tall, not too short, Roy is a sports enthusiast, and has proved a creditable performer on football and basketball squads. Hi-Y, Student Council, and Science Club were his centers of interest. FLORENCE BECK A thoroughly friendly person is Beck, She has been a faithful member of G.A.A. where she majored in basketball, which is also her favorite recreation. She aims to become a neat, efficient secretary--perhaps to the President. DONALD BJORKLUND Doc is a bear for punishment: his hobby is keepin' company, his ambition nev- er to fall in love. Among his activities he lists orchestra, Student Council, Science Club, and swimming. Favorite recreation--school work!--lsee first sentencelj J OI-IN BLOEMENDAL Long, broad, brown-eyed, Joe is president of our class. He has been a tower of strength in all activities, including the job of photography. Science is his hobby. Who wOuldn't look pleasant at his gentle exhortation? JOSEPH BRISKEN Judged by his favorite Occupation here, Joe rates as a live-wire. Backstage he has charge of lights, elsewhere too he plays with electricity. Even in class he throws off occasional sparks. We'll expect a meteoric career. GEORGE BUMP Curly hair, laughing eyes, and shining teeth! We give you George! His immediate interest is machinery, though he spends a lot of time dancing. If our guess is right, smiling George will forget machinery but not dancing. LORRAINE BUNDE They call her Babe, but what a misnomerl She can act, and dance, and has made a success of editing the annual and acting as vice president of Dramatic Club. Grown up, really, eh, what? RAY BUNDE Did you ever see a dream walking? ---Well, Ray's one. Maybe he's just think- ing of how he can break 80, or how to increase his batting average, but we think maybe he's being bashful, or tantalizingly aloof. HELEN CAPETI G. A. A. president, Big Sister, Glee Club member, Girl Reserve, and a swell per- son. Besides, she has dark eyes and a lovely smile. She is interested in basketball, likes to dance--and does them both well. DEAN CARLSON His hobby, amateur radio operating, serves as a background to success in his big ambition, that of becoming a radio engineer. Dean being so VERY ambitious, we expect he will succeed. I-le ,is also an energetic swimmer.

Eighteen IRENE GIESEN Giving a party at your house? Call Rene , She aspires to direct an orchestra, and just now devotes herself to dancing. Girl Reserves have enjoyed her companion- ship through'her high school life. GEORGE GRABNER The Rockefeller-Edison of this generation will be George. For where there's a will there's a way. The will is thefdesire to become a rich man, the way -- the perfecting of his hobby of making radios. RUTH Gmxizionn Active in every branch of G.A.A., Ruth stood out in the sports world. Her vocal ability made her an excellent Glee Club member, her friendliness and good fel- lowship, the nicest kind of Big Sister. ANN GRUNDHAUSER Annie is one of those gratifying persons who mind their own business very well. She has been a member of the G.A.A. Collecting snapshots of this and that is her favorite hobby. She aspires to efficient stenography. LOUISE HAAG Mary Lou! Does this sweet, fragile name conjure up comedienne or efficient journalist? One she dreams of becomingg the other she already is. Other dreams are in her eyes, but her giggle is more widely celebrated. ROBERT HAAS Curly hair, rosy cheeks, sparkling eyes and teeth--that's Bob. Architects' Club and Annual staff have both claimed him as a willing and enthusiastic worker. In a noisy world, his silence is soothing as syrup. LUCILE HAGON Lu with her dimples, blonde hair, and serene smile is a combination to capture a heart--or a contest. Girl Reserves, Student Council, and Big and Little Sisters were glad to have her among their number. MILDRED HANDY To look at Millie , one would never guess that her favorite recreation was sleep- ing, for she is always busily engaged. Witness her services in the Girl Reserves, Student Council, Big Sisters, and Library Staff. IRA HARRINGTON Pitter, patter,--plop go girls' hearts as Ike walks down the hall. Apprenticed to the good life through Hi-Y and Student Council, his ambition is to reach a. ripe old age--and draw for his grandchildren's annuals? JAMES HENDRICKS Just tall enough, and just short enough, Jimmy hikes whither his feet guide him . Though an outdoor boy, he enjoys reading, and from the vocabulary he exhibits, he does it to his advantage and others' amazement. DOROTHY HILD Glee Club and G.A.A. claim Dee as a member. The gold bug has nipped her, keeps her busy at treasure hunting. She points proudly to her collection of old currency and says, There's gold in them thar coins . MARIE HOFBAUER Babe is as capable as she is ambitious. Girl Reserve, Library Staff, and German Club activities attest the former, her ambition--one day to go a-journying--she affirms. In her leisure time she works on a mysterious scrapbook. MILDRED HUNZIKER Millie is the live wire of any- party. Her bright head and quick smile have shone in G.A.A., W Club, Jr.-Sr. Sisters, and library club. In her innermost heart Millie longs to become a professional dancer. KATHRYN HURLBERT Kitty , whose warm smile has fallen upon us all, is a thoroughly efficient little woman. We don't doubt that she will be excellent as private secretary, as she has been as Jr.-Sr. Sister and Girl Reserve. CHARLES JAHN Chuck the silent--but is he wise! And those who know him best do tell how talkative he can be when among friends. Still we hold that, silence being golden, Chuck has made his million already. IRENE JAROSCH Among Ps accomplishments, we point out with pride her ability to sing, write, set hair, be athletic. She swims, and wants to be a hairdresser. Already adept in the latter art, her name should make beauty history. ALBERT JOHNSON Al wants a new car, probably to facilitate hauling of the gang he brings to and from school every day. Besides serving as chauffuer, Al has given a good demon- stration of his ability on the football team. LILLIAN JOHNSON Tiny, blonde, vivacious--we like Lil , Her Girl Reserve helping hand is always ready. Personally, if we reach the top of the success ladder, we're keeping her in mind, she'll make a perfect private secretary.
