THE GARNET AND WHITE 9 CATHARINE DAWSON Commercial Gold, gold, gold, gold, Bright and red, hard and cold.”—Hood Glee Club III, IV; Monitor IV. Billy?” You don’t mean to say you don't know “Billy!” Well, see that red bobbed itairr That’s “Billy.” You can always tell her by her fiery bobbed hair and contagious smile. They sav, you know, that people with red hair have tempers to match, but we’ve never seen any evidence of such an undesirable trait as that in Billy,’ and we have yet to meet the person who has. But be- cause her temper is calm doesn’t sav that she is. Vim, vigor and vitality, that’s Billy!” ROBERT H. DECKER Scientific “With roguish look and merry laugh.”—Tyler Orchestra III and IV; Monitor IV; Cheer Leader IV. Since Bob” entered High School, he has made a host of friends. We might add that he, too, is quite a “ladies’ man.” We all like him, and we wish him the best of success. He intends to enter either Penn State or Tuft’s College. EDYTHE DONAHUE Classical “I am a part of all I have.”—Bulwer Lytton Health Crusade III; French Club IV. Kdythe has quite a number of nicknames, but the one by which Bl knows her is “Dizzy.” She has been with the class for only the last two years, but she is a friend and a great favorite of all. She is always happy and having fun with the rest of her classmates. We shall all miss her next year. She expects to go to Philadelphia Business College. LOUIS WILLIAM DUTT Commercial “Zealous, yet modest.”—Beattie “Duttv” is one of those unobtrusive fellows who are always ready to smile and joke, no ma’.ter how busy they are. Dull times and “Duttv” are not very good friends and are never found together. He expects to take an office position after graduation. We know he will “make good,” and we wish him success.

8 THE GARNET AND WHITE BEATRICE COX Commercial “A quiet smile, a kindly word and we are well content”—Holmes “Bee?” Oh, yes! That very tall, sedate girl with the brown eyes. “Bee” is undecided about next year, but we are sure that if she decides to take a position her dignity and air of responsibility, together with her abil- ity, will win her success. AMELIA CRAWFORD General With loving words she soothed her friend”—Nelson Amelia is a gentle little miss with a very big sense of humor, and her merry, and often unexpected, laughter has brightened many a dull class. Amelia is the kind of person who always has “something nice” to tell one when one feels blue, and we’ll all miss her cheery little self when we are “far away’’ from each other. Here’s luck to you, Amelia, at Normal, and may you ever go on being a ray of sunshine. EDITH P. DARLINGTON General Smiles will drive all cares away. —Long Basketball IV; Monitor IV; Art Club IV. Edith, better known to her friends as “Seeds,” must belong to some club or society whose motto is “Smile and be Happy,” for she is always ready to do some mischief or play a trick on some one. Aside from being a good all-around pal, she is a good student. We wish her the best of luck in her course at State Normal. THORA DAVIS Normal The wiles which do beguile my heart are thine.”—Anon. Tliora is the kind of girl whose presence makes school a place worth attending. She likes everybody; consequently, everybody likes her. Long after our school days are over, we will remember her impish eyes and her irresistible giggle which brightened many a dull class. She insists that she will go to Normal and teach three years, but we doubt if such attractive “wiles as she possesses will permit this! Tliora, may you have all the success and happiness that you deserve!

10 THE GARNET AND WHITE ELIZABETH W. ELDRIDGE Secretarial “A daughter of Elysium.”—Beethoven Basketball Varsity Team III, IV; Athletic Captain of “Sun- set” Division IV; Tennis Club IV; Secretary Improvement Com- mittee IV. But a pal for all that, you'd be glad to have.” Sometimes she’s sad, sometimes glad, “Betty” is a real sport in every sense of tlie word. She is well known and beloved by all her classmates, and she has made many friends during her four busy years of High School. She is one of the most active members of the Senior Class. You will never be disappointed if you expect a bright smile or a cheery word, for these are two things of which “Betty” seems to have a wonderful sup- ply. So, “Betty,” we all wish you all kinds of good luck, and we hope that success will attend you in all your en- terprises. NORMAN ENTRIKEN Classical In truth, a lad by fortune favored.”—Shakespeare “Shorty,” as his nickname implies, is not very tall, but that makes no difference, for lie is a good sport and is liked by everyone. Wherever you meet him, he always has a smile which is quite contagious. He is undecided as to what lie is going to do, but we are sure that his buoyancy will help him through life, and he has the best wishes of the Class of ’23. HELEN ESBIN General “The thoughts of sums and such were good to her.”—Dunbar Helen is one of those silent, unassuming girls who speak only when they have something worth while to say. Too bad more of us don’t possess this unusual gift -the world might be a li tie different if there were more of us like Helen. Helen has one line in which she posi- tively excels—that is arithmetic. She has the habit of coming smilingly to class with questions perfectly solved which seemed to us ordinary people nothing less than hopeless. Helen will attend the Normal School next year, and we hope she will specialize in that branch in which she is so proficient. MARIE FACCIOLLI Commercial Quand mime.”—Bernhardt Marie is another one of our quiet girls. But when she once starts to talk, doesn’t she just make us all sit up and listen, especially in reading shorthand notes! Marie, with her black hair and flashing eyes, has gotien along very well in school and—she just loves Office Prac- tice ! ! Marie is undecided as to her plans for next year, but we wish her all success in whatever she may take up.
