Honor Roll 2. “Stogie,” although a true Scots man, is never lost for words, and can often be detected by his arousing, witty remarks.

Bowen Briggs Orchestra 3, 4 Band 3, 4. Bowen, we are informed on reliable authority, is the backbone of The Music Clubs.

Brown Chorus 3, 4 Cantata 3, 4. Gym 2, 3, 4. Com. Typing Committee 4. We wonder what makes “Brownie stare into space so frequently? May be she’s watching a clock”!
