THE HIGH SCHOOL HERALD 19 16. Who is the baby of the Senior Class? In manner, actions, and words, I find Helen Jenkins a little babyish, and her way of talking is just too cute. 17. Who is the biggest bluffer of the Senior Class? It seems a diffi¬ cult problem to select the biggest bluffer in the Senior Class but after a study of all the members, I am led to believe Richard Blackburn takes the honors as the biggest bluffer. 18. Of all the graduating classes of the Windsor Locks High school, which class has been the most illustrious and dignified?
