CHARLOTTE ISHMAN Cast of Silas Marner ’30. Class Vice-President 30. Assistant Editor of the Mirror ’30. Graduation Essay '30. “Slow and steady wins the race.” Take a little quietness, some brutal frankness, and more wise cracks—mix them together and you have Charlotte’s chief characteristics. We didn’t hear much of her until last year, when she got her license. Since then, when we see a flash of red about a mile off, we say—“There’s Charlotte” and jump. Joe may be a fast driver, but Charlotte seems never to let her foot off the poor accelerator. CLIFFORD JOHNSON A. A. ’27, ’28, ’29, ’30. Minstrel ’28. Basketball ’27, ’28, 29, ’30. Manager of Basketball ’29. Art Editor of Wide Awake ’29. Baseball ’29. President of A. A. 30. Presenter of Class Gifts. “‘One can be a soldier without dying, and a lover without sighing.” Cliff is as indispensible in basketball as he is in every sort of minstrel. We have to admit that he sort of lost interest in us about a year ago, but lately he has been more active in Senior affairs. EVELYN JOHNSON Student Counsel ’27. Class Treasurer ’28, 29, 30. Dance Committees ’29, 30. School News. Wide Awake 30. A. A. 30. Class Valedictorian. “She knew the precise psychological moment when to say nothing.” Quiet, steadfast, reliable and helpful. Evelyn seems to have become the backbone of the class. She is truly a clever girl for she has set an unequalled record in regard to A’s; she has managed to pull the class treasury through four years without class dues; and she has been given unanimously the place of private tutor of the class. Perhaps greatest of all, Evelyn has been the exception which proved the rule, that most Seniors are late.

Captain of Baseball '29, ’30. Class Vice-President, '29. Dance Committees ’29, 30. Track ’29, ’30. Cast of The Florist Shop, ’30. A. A. ’27, ’28, ’29, ’30. “Let me Say whate’er they will Woman, woman rules them still.” Coadie has been a constant source of amusement for the members of the school for some years. We know of no other person who can trip people and bump into doors more graceful! ' than Coadie. This winter he made his debut as an actor and proved to the public in general that Senior boys have ability in other lines aside from athletics. DORIS EYRE Class reporter for Wide Awake ’27. Alumni Editor of Wide Awake ’29. Editor of Wide Awake ’30. Play ’28, ’29. Cast of The Florist Shop ’30. Class President ’29. Dance Committee, ’29. ’30. A. A. ’28, ’29, ’30. Basketball ’29, ’30. Captain of Basketball ’30. Student Council ’27. Glee Club ’29, 30. Subscription Contest Captain ’28, ’29. Class Essay. “She finds earth not grey but rosy Heaven not grim but fair of hue.” Who will get all the teasing next year when Doris is gone? More than one will miss her jolly innocent “baby face,” which really is a mask for all she knows. Doris not only has received high rank as a scholar, but has also excelled in dramatics, athletics and is noted for her gift for writing clever and witty bits. In the dance hall Doris is in her element. As President of her class, she displayed an ideal mixture of authority, jollity and good taste, w'ith the result that things were cheerfully and efficiently done. We believe it would be difficult to find another girl more interested in all school affairs than is Dorothy. Four years ago, we became envious of Dorothy’s clothes, and we’ve become more so each succeeding year. This year Dorothy developed a flair for Chemistry, in fact she has taken such an interest in it that she has tried to perform experiments which weren’t in the laboratory manual. DOROTHY GLASSER “Diligence is everything.”

With her expressive eyes, wavy hair and magnetic charm, she has twined herself round the hearts of all. She proved to us her dramatic ability during her Senior year and will be remembered for her outstanding ability as a guard on the basketball team, by a great many forwards in the league who dreaded to see her appear. Social gatherings in school and towm will be far from complete without Helen. DELMER KNOX Class President '27. Basketball '27, 28, '29, '30. Captain of Basketball '29 Basebill '27, 28, '29, '30. A.

He plays everything from marbles to Basketball. He is able to play girls rules as they were never played before, and anyone accustomed to playing cards with him knows that surprising things are likely to happen.

Saluta-torian. “Discretion of speech is more than eloquence. From South Britain hails this tall slender blond girl. She is the best friend of Evelyn and between them they seem to have carried off all the schoalstic honors. Vivian has made quite a name for herself in dramatics and in untangling the financial difficulties of the A. A. She deserves to be highly complimented upon her success with the new enterprise.
