CHARLES ROBERT ABBOTT He hath strange places in his brain, filled with observations.” Staff Artist, Wide Awake (1). Short Story Club (2). Magazine Club (2). English Club (3). Ass’t Editor, Wide Awake (3). Editor, Mirror (3-4). Cast, Fire-Prince,” (4). Editor, Wide Awake (4) Class Poet (4). Folks, this is Robert. Don’t call him Charles, he doesn’t like it). He can be recognized by a beautiful sandy colored curl over his forehead. If you want to know whether Booth Tarkington or Chaucer wrote Hamlet (or any similiar question) ask him. He thrives on metaphors and hyperboles; he is delighted with a set of alliterations; and how he juggles spondaic hexameters. Yes, you’ve guessed it. He’s a literary fiend. The success of the improved Mirror” during this past year has been due almost wholly to him. He is preparing for a literary career and it won’t be long before G. B. Shaw will chew his beard with envy. HELEN VALERIE CAROLYN BELZ I am a women of the world, and I can assure you that if you will only take the trouble to do the perfectly correct thing, and to say the perfectly correct thing, you can do just what you like.” Wide Awake Exchange Editor (1). Class President (1). Glee Club (2). Nature Study Club (2). Honor Roll Club (2). Mirror Staff (3-4). School News Reporter to Woodbury Reporter (3). Class Will (4). Did you hear a sudden exclamation from the back of the room? That was Helen. She lives in a remote region called Grassy Hill” and comes to school in a taxi. She has four names, which is an unusual distinction. She is, as the French say, une femme du tete,” and her sensible opinions are sure to be expressed with firmness whenever the occasion arises. She is a proficient note and letter writer, but, alas, in order to interest her, a man must be six feet tall. Page Five

RAYNALL MILTON COLEY An Irishman’s heart is nothing but his imagination.” Class Treasurer (1). Cast of The Exchange” (1). Glee Club (2). Baseball (2-3-4). Basketball (2-3-4). Class President, (3). Operetta, Bits O’ Blarney” (3). Class Vice-President (4). Cast of Operetta, The Fire-Prince” (4). Dance Committees (3-4). Mirror Cartoonist (1-2-3-4). Class Prophecy (4). Coley is our only representative of the jolly Irish race and has furnished a great deal of humor. Bill has been the Mirror cartoonist for four years. However, this is not his only accomplishment for he designs and paints scenery, plays basketball, and baseball, and renders touching ballads on the harmonica. New England has done much for this Kentuckian. For example, he can now bluff recitations. Either Coast Guard Academy or the study of draftsmanship will claim our Fire-Prince”. If things go wrong Bill, get out the old harmonica. MAUDE ELIZABETH EYRE A babe in school” is a well-spring of pleasure.” Class Vice-President (1). Class Secretary (2). Glee Club (2-3). Latin Club (2). Dramatic Club (2). Honor Roll Club (2). Operetta, Bits O’ Blarney” (3). Member of A. A. (3). Basketball (3). Secretary English Club (3) . Class Party Committee (3). Prom Committee (3). Operetta, The Fire-Prince” (4). Senior Dance Committee (4). A. A. Dance Committee (4). Class Will (4) - Here is our class baby. In the absence of rattles, the boys (especially Bob) are very willing to try to amuse her. She is quite well-behaved for an infant and cries only when you pinch her. Even then you hear only a little squeak, followed by a slap or two— a rather cute performance. Maudie” has a serious side as is proved by the fact that she regularly graces the Honor Roll. We hope she will find an I. G. A. store wherever she goes so that she will always be well fed. ROBERT FREDERICK FRAY In play, there are two pleasures for your choosing. The one is winning, and the other losing.” Member of A. A. (1-2-3-4). Baseball (1-2-3-4). Basketball (1-2-3-4). Cast of Operetta, The Fire-Prince” (4). Class Gifts (4). Bobby has been our basketball and baseball star. Without these sports he would be miserable. We are very proud of our handsome pitcher but we fear that he will regret that he didn’t allow French to make more of an impression upon him when he plays with the big leagues in France. Rudy” is supposed to be bashful but we don’t believe he always is. Page Six
