L aeAve»,’ PORiEfthl ERNEST S. GRISWOLD “Ernie” “Ernie” has a grin with just enough deviltry in it to arouse his teacher ' s ire. The fact is that we recognize the grin first, “Ernie” afterwards.

A.; Honor Society; Chemistry Club; Business Board of Class Book; Junior Usher; Color Com¬ mittee. Never tardy. Antioch. Engineer. EVELYN GROSS “Ev” Fairness, charm, and beauty, the envy of her classmates and the pride of her friends, is exquisite “Ev.” Had she lived when knights were bold, one of the errant lads would have had a faithful maiden.

S.; Ingleside Club; Choir; Junior Glee Club; Girls’ Business Club, Executive Committee, Fund Committee; Essayist; Class Book Business Board. Secretary.

A.; Girls’ League, Junior and Senior Member; Ingleside; Girls’ Debating Squad, President; “Lookout” Editorial Board. Reporter. Never tardy.

Bookkeeper. [ 22 ]

PORiEfthl ANNE T. A. GOLDSTEIN “Nan” A list of Nan’s various activities sounds like an excerpt from the “Hand¬ book.” (She frankly admits that she has a good disposition, and who are to dispute a woman with convictions.?)

GOODMAN “Frankie” Although one would not call “Frankie” a woman’s man, nevertheless, he has a decided taste for the ladies, whether hopping about on the dance floor or near the tennis courts.
