PAUL ABRAMS Abe “I never sleep; I am always on the alert. ' For real lankiness Abe has them all stopped at the post! His legs extend up to the region that should have been his seventh rib, at which point his body begins. It so happened that one day, a day of an assembly, Abe arrived before the three minutes bell. That morning it was supposed that the special period was to honor Abe, but it wasn ' t! Holcomb Street School. Football Squad; A. A. RHODA APTER Rho The sweetest garland to the sweetest maid If you call the Apter mansion any time after six, the telephone will invariably be busy. Why? Well, that ' s Rho doing the French homework for the girls in her class. Perhaps one day she ' ll speak it like a native of (no, not Connecticut) France. Here ' s hoping! Northwest School. Girls ' League; A. A.; French Club; Honor Society. IRMA AVROCH Heaven helps those who help themselves .” Irma ' s blase manner has us guessing. We wonder what hidden emotions it covers. Let us in on the secret, will ya’ Irm? French is Irma ' s forte and yet she dropped it. What can the matter be? Northwest School. Never tardy. Girls ' League; A. A.; French Club; Chemistry Club; Basketball. RALPH AVSEEV Ace “None but himself can be his parallel Fifteen love, thirty love, forty love, game. Fifteen love, thirty love, forty love, game— Answer is game. Such is the scene when Ace plays tennis. He is Weaver ' s demon tennis player, and ranking Ace 1, 2, and 3. Besides being a tennis player and consumer of hot dogs, Ralph is a super business man and pro¬ motes various and sundry schemes of all sorts. Northwest School. Never tardy.

FANNY BACKER Faye “A lovely girl is above all rank.” If a stranger ever saw little Faye working behind her counter at Newberry ' s some Saturday, he would probably be indignant at the laxness of the Child Labor Authorities. She is a slim, sweet girl, and would make an ideal kid sister. Frank A. Brackett School. Never tardy. Girls ' League; Girls ' Business Club. SHIRLEY BASCH Shirl “A little girl with sunset in her hair.” Just an old smoothie—that ' s Shirl. She leads her male admirers on with a fetching come hither glance that has collected quite an army of them. She ' s tops in the class as far as scholastic ability goes, too. More power to you, kid! Northwest School. Girls ' League; A. A.; French Club, Secretary; Honor Society. MICHAEL BEIRPONCH Mike “Short and to the point.” That he Never flunked a subject, was set down by Mike as a distinction. He being the same as the rest of us it would seem that, in the case, he had confused the word distinction with the word miracle. His small, though husky, body and his characteristic of speaking only when spoken to, set Mike aside from the common run. Northwest School. A. A. MARGARET BERESKY Marge “Woman ' s greatest asset is modesty.” Although Marge is an out-of-town girl, she has quickly adapted herself to Weaver and has become very well-liked. Her quiet and retired manner has shown us her culture and refinement. She has been active in many of our clubs, especially in dramatics, and we are sure that Marge will be a great success some day.
