Page twenty litghltfllits Ilf iFmtrth frar (JIlctBH YEAR To be considered a member of the Fourth Year, a student must have to his credit at least eighteen units. CLASS 1 MACLAREN LORNE ANDERSON—One of those dour Scotchmen, a stem and silent man. Mack has great difficulty in the finding of the villain who con¬ tinually interferes with the working of his desk chain. This flaming youth has no definite idea for the future. ISABELL ELNOR BALDWIN—Baldy first wore skates in Banff. She still wears them to good purpose in Calgary, where she has received her Public and High school education. Her great ambition is to become a famous skater, but she would like also to master the difficulties of Algebra. Normal comes next. RODENA FLORA BEATON—Rodena was bom at Basin, Wyoming, in 1913. She came to Calgary in 1923 and has resided here since. She has attended West¬ ern for three years, and this year she is completing her Grade XII. “Ah! pensive scholar, what is fame?” DOROTHY ELINOR BECKER—Dorothy hails from Class I. Her most familiar expression is: “Have you done your Geometry? I haven’t.” This fair young maiden has two ambitions: To pass Physics II and to attend University obtaining the degrees of B.A., M.A., Ph.D., R.A., B.Sc., M.D., etc. LUCILE MARGARET BELL—Lucile says little and says it often. She was bom in Gleichen in 1915, and remained there to finish Public school. She came to Calgary, attended Mount Royal College, and came to Western in 1930. She intends to go to Normal next year. LOIS MARION BROOKS—This dark-eyed maiden was born in Calgary. After paying a visit to Vancouver she returned, and is now at Western. She appears to be a quiet lass, but she knows her little world. Lois intends to go to Busi¬ ness College next year. ALBERTA O. BROWN—Having danced through seventeen years, Alberta hopes she is nearing her goal of becoming a Tango dancer. At present her cheery smile brightens our class-room. Her Latin is a thing of joy forever to every¬ one but her teacher. DOROTHY FORREST CADZOW—This shy little maiden, commonly known as “Dorie” is the one with the big brown eyes. Although she is a Canadian, she is an ardent admirer of our friends to the South. No matter what “Dodie” decides to do, we all wish her the best of luck. FRANCES GERTRUDE CADZOW—The “high light” of Class I, Frances came from the capital city four years ago and has been aiding her friends to secure their daily laugh ever since. She is returning to Western next year and then hopes to go to University. MARGARET CATHERINE CAWSTON—Marg, breathlessly, bursts into Class I just in time to have her name struck off the absentee list. She attributes this to the weight of her books. She takes an active part in her sorority, is Treas¬ urer of the Year Book, and has a great ambition to become a singer. KENNETH ANDREW CONNAL CLARKE—Ken is a Canadian by birth and a Scotsman by name and inclination. He is a stalwart of the Senior Rugby Team and a badminton player of no mean ability. Next year Ken plans to begin t he study of medicine, possibly in the land of his forefathers.

Page twenty-one [BOOK CLASS 1 - (Continued) BLODWEN MARY COGLAND—This damsel with the intricate name claims she was born in London. She came here last summer from Regina, and since then her practical jokes have been a constant source of hysteria to the girls of Class I. FREDERICK JAMES GARBUTT—Fred was born in Amherst, Nova Scotia, but came to Calgary at an early age. His ambition is to put two or three parts together to make a car which will run at least two days without needing an overhaul. Fred intends to go to Normal next year. ELVIN WESLEY HART—A jolly good fellow, at ease with himself and everyone else. To see his happy grin is a pleasure shared by everyone in his vicinity. He has two aims in life. One is to sit and think, and the other is, sometimes, just to sit. SAMUEL BRUCE JACOBS—While Bruce was still in his crib, he was very likely busying himself with the study of Newton’s first law of motion. Time changed that and he has become a very industrious student and a credit to Class I. Bruce is going to Normal in the fall. SUSANNAH JAMES—Sue took her first paddle in the chilly waters of Lake Win¬ nipeg, but even her Irish temper wasn’t hot enough to withstand the cold, so she came to Calgary. Let’s hope her Irish brogue and eyes don’t break too many hearts. JOHN MARTIN KING—King made his first appearance in Ohio in 1910. He argued his way to Tofield, Alberta, back to the States, and finally to Calgary. King is one of the fortunate persons who has enjoyed the pleasure of giving detentions, but he has returned to Western to receive them. He hopes to become a corporation lawyer. FRANCES WILLIAMINA LEGG—Frankie joined Western last year after attend¬ ing St. Hilda’s. She is noted for her mischievous brown eyes. So far as we know her two main ambitions are to remain at the back of the room for a whole “Lit” period and to become a kindergarten teacher. DOROTHY ELIZABETH LESLIE—Dorothy was born in sunny Alberta, seventeen years ago, and has kept it sunny with her smile ever since. She aims to be a school marm, so it’s Normal for her next year. MAXINE MARGARET MACKLIM—This happy person, otherwise known as “Mackie” was born in Calgary. She is usually seen placing a small, inoffens¬ ive piece of gum in the waste-paper basket, upon the command of some watch¬ ful teacher. “Mackie” intends to take up journalism. JOHN HENRY MARRIOTT—Jack was born in Regina in 1915. He came to Cal¬ gary in 1917. The boys at Western like this quiet, good-natured fellow and wish him success in his career of Radio Engineer. Next year he will be hunt¬ ing a job to earn his daily bread. JOHN RONALD McMURCHY—McMurchy started sometime, somewhere, but we didn’t find out when or where. He is captain of the basketball team and has lent his strength to Western’s rugby team. He says he doesn’t know what he will be doing next year, but “Father will see that I do something.” JOHN A. M1NCHIN—Jack’s shy little smile peeks out now and then as if to say, “Here I am, what about it?” Jack excelled himself in hockey and rugby, and Class I can well be proud of him. His curly hair will some day cause him trouble, but let that pass. GARNET FREEMAN NELSON—Garnet has been coming to our school so long he is tired of it. He seems to say, “Work and worry have killed a lot of people, so why should I take a chance.” Garnet is going to Normal next year. CARL OLAF NICKLE—Carl is the gentleman of Class I who condescends to pay us a weekly visit if nothing interferes. He came here from Winnipeg and plans to stay. His ambition is to become an accountancy expert, and he is taking a course to secure his aim.
