He always has the interest of the class at heart, and is sure to make his mark in the world because of his loyal spirit. GRACE NEWHAM Wee, sleekit. cow’rin, tim’rous beastie.” Grace is the Sphinx of our class, but we suspect this attitude is merely a species of protective armor.

Class Basketball Manager (I); Orchestra (I. 2); French Play (2. 3); Junior Prom Committee; Class Football (4); Senior Play Stage Manager; Hi-Y (3.4); Class Day Scenery Committee. The handsome, stalwart, heart-breaking young man who at times is seen dashing here and there in a somewhat bedraggled auto, and at other times driving with style in his Chevrolet Coupe, bears the cognomen of Edgerton Newcomb. Notwithstanding his choice of vehicles, no one could have worked more assiduously or could have accomplished so much with so little as did Edgie in his masterly work on the scenery for the Senior Play.
