Critic of Lincoln Literary Society, 3. Manager of Basketball, 4. Athletic Editor of Beacon . The world is my empire Make way for a man. Ginny is the most important man in the Senior Class and because of this he must have a little more consider- ation. Ellis is one of the most studious, and ambitious students of our class and his studies occupy most of his time. Once in a while he goes on a tear with the women. Ginny also starred for four years on the Varsity Basket- ball Team, always coming through when he was needed. Some day he expects to be a dentist. Maybe that's why he is practicing at looking down in the mouth. nf ll THORMA MAE HECKMAN Just Thorman Vice-President Lincoln Literary Society 4 School News Editor of Beacon . Ain't Nature VVonderful And now let me present to you the girl with that school girl complexion. Yes, Thorma uses Palmolive and that is the reason she does not need to use paint and powder to obtain a skin you love to touchC?j Her com plexion, however, is not the only thing she can be proud of, for her school work also merited attention Thorma is an accomplished musician, her favorite instrument being the violin. Oftimes she looks wistful and we know she is thinking about her handsome college boy Thorma loves aesthetic dancing and she tells us she likes to shut herself in her room and dress for it . Sweet mama' Bring on the eats. Ellis H. Miller gf YJ 1? fi Page 10

Sleep is man's most healthful exercise. And here is the president, and what a wonder he is Cwhen he gets herej. Bob's one failing is his total in- ability to arrive at school in time for the morning session. He just can't get up, so what's to be done about it? For the past two years we all thought that Bob was immune from all love affairs, but lately he's fallen hard, and for a freshie at that. Well, we're glad to see he is human, anyway. Also this last year he has taken an interest in athletics, being Captain of the Reserve Team and sixth man on the Varsity. Really, our president has a lot of ability and we wish him all success in the future. MARY ALICE FRITZ F1'itz1Ie Class Assistant Secretary, 3, 4. Secretary Roosevelt Literary Society, 1. Assistant Secretary Student Body Association, 2. Secretary Athletic Association, 3, 4. Assistant Business Manager of HBeacon . Innocence is Bliss. Fair, fat, and never kissed. Does this fair little Cherub-like morsel of femininity not look the innocence of a babe in the manger? XVell, she is and maybe that is the reason Mary has been one of the shining lights of our class with her mind untainted by a crool, crool woild. However, when it comes to asking foolish questions, Fritzie wins the barbed-wire Wash-board, for no day goes by without her pulling off some bright one, such as, Where does the flame go when the light goes out? or vice versa. Getting into argument in which she doesn't know what she's talking about is her favorite pastime, but aside from that she's all right, God bless her! Mary A. Fritz Lv ij IR Page 9

Pianist of Roosevelt Literary Society, 1, 4. , Vice-President of Roosevelt Literary Society, 3. President of Athletic Association, 4. President Student Body, 2. Editor-in-Chief of Beacon 'Hats off to the kid Whitey is the baby of the class and because of his tender years we must be more careful of our treatment of him. It would seem however that size and age are no handicap for Whitey starred for four years on the Varsity and Reserve basketball teams and when it comes to women he's a bear. Perhaps his petite Junior lassie on the side-lines was the inspirational cause of his num- erous held goals. A wonderful musical talent adds an- other to his large quota of natural abilities and we warn you to make way for another great master. Bernard E. Leightheiser M I LD RED SARA FOLK Jlflfillid' Literary Editor of Beacon So gentle, serious, mild and staidg She is indeed a model maid . l Mildred S. Folk Does she not look the picture of modesty itselfd Bashful and shy are the characteristics of Millie, an? perhaps these requisites have made her the ideal student she is. She pursues all her studies with a firm perse- verance and does not indulge in throwing spitballs at the teachers, but on the other hand, finds considerable pleas- ure in writing some soothing bit of poetry or song. Millie has a beau, too, but she never tells us much about him although we do know he kisses her goodnight on the back porch. Best wishes to you, Millie. L? fl, C? fu Page 11 il
