14 Students from Page 25 of the Tom Tom Year Book for Tulsa Central High School, Graduating Class of 1925. Surnames on this page: Potter, Masek, Pray, Mattocks, Stutsman, Hudlin, Meadors, White, Ford, Prater, McCracken, Sutherland, Dotson, Day

EWART POTTER
Ewart's hair is beautifully curly, but he thinks in straight lines. He would have been a member of the Tom-Tom staff but for the intricacies of a T. H. S. schedule. He claims he is satisfied with life. He is known for his interest in geology, and hates no person or thing.
Bitter Truth: He didn't tell the truth--he hates girls and oral themes.
MAMIE DORENE MASEK
Booster club, Volley Ball. Mamie consists largely of a high tenor? Voice flavored with a highly romantic quality. She is also a demure little playwright who labors in secret and incorporates her best friends in her strong acts. Her life ambition is to be a foreign missionary.
Bitter Truth: Mamie likes tall men.
CLYDE PRAY
Debate, dramatics. I'm a duck, watch me swim. Thus we can readily see that nothing dry appeals to Clyde. He's a good natured fellow, takes things easy, and lives life each day. Clyde is not so very big, but Wrigley says "It's the little things that count in life".
Bitter Truth: Alas he loves a maiden fair: Where 'er she is, he's always there.
MADELINE MATTOCKS
Madeline is a prospective young business lady, consisting largely of big buttons, contagious laughter, blue eyes, and left-handed curls. Little and trim as a fiddle, her countenance presents a veritable riddle so self-contained is she.
The Bitter Truth: The star of her horizon will have to travel all the way for Madeline believes in "proving 'em."
RAY STUTSMAN
Dramatics, Football.
Daniel Boone seems destined to shine forth again in all his glory in the person of his devoted imitator, Ray Stutsman. Ray surely does have a gleaming calculating eye especially designed to function behind a trigger. Outside of his hunting togs Ray is afflicted with the Ford Mechanics mania.
Bitter Truth: Ray's nickname is "King Tub-on-the-ground."
FRANCES HUDLIN
Girl Reserves, T Walkers. According to indoor and basketball fans, Frances is a player as skilled as the best. She has also been a member of the girls' volleyball and track teams. She seldom needs to talk--her giggle is all-expressive and is called into service at least once every five minutes.
Bitter Truth: She has "curly dimples."
EDITH MEADORS
Edith makes excellent grades in all her classes and nothing ever bothers her except studying. She doesn't talk a great deal when she isn't deciding, but when she does have something to say you may be sure that it is worth while. Hiking and kodaking trips are Edith's favorite diversions.
Bitter Truth: She loathes loud speakers.
PEARL WHITE
It is written that a red-headed woman will get a man, Pearl will probably rescue hers from the angry waves. She is as noisy as a clam in the class room, but Ya oughta get her out; she can talk on anything providing it is within her range of interest.
Bitter Truth: She uses pepsodent on her pearl whites.
HARRY FORD
Harry doesn't rattle like his namesake the fliver. He eases along in a slow deliberate way like a Ford limousine. Although he is reserved and serious, his sense of humor and resulting "remarks" have been the cause of much enjoyment in his classes.
Bitter Truth: You can never tell what a Ford will do.
ALICE PRATER
Girl Reserves, Tom-Tom.
She likes such deep subjects as Virgil and chemistry, and stoutly maintains that they are harmless. However, she spends little time studying. Some people think that her name signifies nothing but they should withhold judgment until she gets enthusiastic about one of her theories.
Bitter Truth: She is happiest when the cafeteria has spaghetti for lunch.
GERALD MCCRACKEN
Norman Contestant, T-Club, Hi-Y, Booster Club, Band, Orchestra. Right this way and see a human wiggle-worm who can wiggle out of any girl's arms. Gerald is commonly known as one boy who won't talk. He'd make a good crook because he believes that two could keep a secret if one of them are dead.
Bitter Truth: Ask him.
MARIE SUTHERLAND
Marie joined us in September, 1924, from Claremore. She has already learned the art of making friends in Tulsa High, for she has a smile for everyone. She can rival the left of "Minerva," with a needle and can expound the fundamental principles of the "Constitution" with equal ease.
Bitter Truth: She likes Peroxide [nit.]
FERN DOTSON
Girl Reserves, T-Walkers. Strange to say, although her name is Fern, her favorite color is not green, but is lavender, which she can charmingly display. She specialized in drawing funny pictures and giggling most of the time, and the rest of her spare moments she is used as an audience by prospective arguers.
Bitter Truth: She rides a bicycle--at night.
GUILFORD DAY
Hi-Y, Boy Scouts.
"Bud" is renowned for his deep blue eyes and bill-board feet. He hates Latin vehemently, but throughly enjoys supporting the athletic teams with his whole heart, voice, and the nearest cowbell. He classes himself as a notorious woman-hater, but has been known to weaken.
Bitter Truth: He has a turn for fluffy poetry, yet his favorite remark is "You big ox."
