Vice-President Roosevelt Literary Society, 3. jest Editor of Beacon Let the rest of the world go by Never worry is Za's motto and he sure lives up to it. Maybe that's why he and the teachers don't get along together as peacefully as could be expected, for.Za is often seen in the office absorbing a lecture of do's and don'ts by one of the profs. It is never quiet when he is around for he loves to sing and make beautiful, harmonious sounds, like those that radiate from a back alley cat fight, much to the annoyance of all the others. However we hope and feel quite sure that he will outgrow all this and allow the rest of the world to go by in a different manner. Robert B. Esterline STELLA VALERIA HERB Jack Class Secretary, 1, 2, 3, 4. Secretary of Student Body Association, 2. Secretary Roosevelt Literary Society, 3. Alumni and Class notes Editor of Beacon . My parents think a lot of me . Hats off to the Belle of Hyde Park, our beloved Stella! From the jungles of Bernhardts, she came wild and afraid. But the ways of the great city soon made their impression until now she is a lady of refinement. Her pet hobby is buying chocolate candy for the boys to steal and when she has none they tease and torment her to beat the band. Stella got a rolling-pin for a Christmas gift to knock 'em cold, but sl1e's afraid she'll break it so she's keeping it in her hope chest for further use. C7 Stella V. Herb xl f? KQ Page 12

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

Chaplain of Lincoln Literary Society, 4. Small and Sweet Behold our little curly headed blondy, Millie with the baby blue eyes and winsome ways. The smallest in our class is Millie but that doesn't say she is unnoticed for she is a deadly vamp. Her latest catch is one of her own little classmates, Ginny the Russian goulash dancer. Mildred can sing wonderfully and when it comes to dancing-well-she could teach the Follies' girls a thing or two. Millie loves to wind her mouth up and hear her- self go. Her only fault: She talks too much. MALCOLM STANLEY RUTH Hlllallien President Roosevelt Literary Society, 4. Critic Roosevelt Literary Society, 3, 4. President Student Body, 1.

Business Manager of Beacon Mother, get my nightshirt, They're going to burn a cross Before you lies a future statesman of our beloved nation the one and only Mallie S. Ruth, Esq., the general man of importance in the senior class. Ahem! There is no doubt that some clay he will be mixed up in the affairs of our people because he has shown that by his numerous arguments during his high school career. His ability in that line cannot be denied, especially when he is talking about the Ku Klux Klan or Teddy Roosevelt, both of which he upholds heroically. Despite all this the girls think he's a pest, for underneath that fertile brain lies a desire to tease and torment. His favorite hobby is throwing erasers but we think there is something he likes better, and that is holding hands with his freshman miss. His pet phrase is I got a datel' and although some day he may be one of the leaders of our country we know that the ladies are going to have something to do with that. Lv fb Malcom S. Ruth Page 13
