Eb: Blue ant white 19 MILAN Ofrrro WELCH. ''Pete -''Mike - Ps-ofessor. Halloween social 1113 High School play 1113 Varsity debating team 111 121g Gift committee 1113 Halloween social 121 3 Compromise committee 121 g Decorating committee 1215 Editor-in-chief of BLUE AND WHITE 1213 Assistant business manager operetta 1213 Assistant manager football 121g Resolution committee 131. Here we have our Li'l ol' champeen speechmaker. Whenever there is a chance for an argument, M. O. Welch is right there. The debating teams could not exist without him. He is also noted for his graft in Assembly meetings. A measure which he and Dodge can,t put through isinconceivable. Welch is a great favorite 1?1 of the fair sex, and spends a good part of his time trying to avoid 1?1 the ladies. If conversation makes a ready man, then Welch must be awfully ready. Favorite pastimes: Consulting the teachers and looking for Dodge. HAZEI. COHINNE WYER. Dance committee 1113 Operetta 121. If silence is golden, Hazel must be a regular plute, for she's a regular silence menace. Hazel is another one who has suddenly become giddy and tlighty. The way she and s. certain Junior carry on is something scand'1us. Aside from this, Hazel is all right. Favorite pastime: Studying. MILAN WELCH, '17. ELIZABETH PIKE, '17.

18 mhz Blue ante bite J oHN ALBERT ROBERTS Football C15 g Class baseball C35 : Halloween social 125. This husky looking member of the Fat Men's Club is our only real farmer. and, as a consequence, our richest man. Some time ago we asked him what he most admired in the fair sex. Grace, said he promptly. When John dances, the floor trembles. When asked what he would do if he saw a Ger- man, John replied: I should point my finger at him and shout 'Boomfer5, BoomCer5.' Favorite pastime: Going to the Star alone C?5. l Wrnms BOURNE Ross. Although Bill is but a recruit in the ranks of our noble class, he is ex- ceedingly popular. To look at his sober, morose, soulful map, one would think he was gazing on a future minister. Such is not the case, however. He says he's going to be a Y. M. C. A. leader. Personally, we think he has about as much chance of becoming one as Mert Laverty has of becoming a minister. The only bad thing we know of Bill is that he associates with Hooky Leighton. Favorite pastime: Search us: ask Bill. ROBERT ALP1-1oNso SWEM. Bob. Varsity football C15 C25 3 Manager basketball C15 3 Head usher High School play Q15. Robert is an extremely bashful youth. To tell the truth, Cplease keep this quiet5, we think he is almost as good-looking as Crocker. According to Miss Hanson, Bob is so lazy that he'd rather get a zero than bother to get up to recite. If we can believe him, Irish Hill is the best part of the town. Favorite pastime: Playing pool at the Republican Club. KATHLEEN MARIE VALLEE. HK. Freshman reception C15 g High School play Q15 g Musical comedy C25 g Music committee C25 :Vaudeville show Q35 g Usher C35 g Committee for class colors 145. Again words fail us! This is our Valedictorian, our musician-in-chief, and last, but not least, the chief of the infamous organization, the Vampire Club. At the present time K. V. is studying military history-her favorite general being Grant. Favorite pastime: Reiterating Ask us no questions and we'll tell you no lies. MARY ANNE WA'rsoN. ' 'Mollyf' Halloween social C15 3 Usher at High School play f15. Molly is another member of our class who for nearly four years has been seen and not heard. Lately, however, she has entered society, and we fear that she will become boisterous. As a veteran linguist of the French class, we all admire her. A short time ago we thought she was a sure candi- date for the Old Maids' Club, but at present we have hopes that she will come to a better end. Favorite pastime : Making a piano talk. '
