Tulsa Central High School - Graduating Class of 1925

14 Students from Page 29 of the Tom Tom Year Book for Tulsa Central High School, Graduating Class of 1925. Surnames on this page: Hunt, Hackett, Hall, Land, Barrett, Waldrep, Hoy, Keily, Halm, Thomas, Gillespie, Andrews, Harper, Bailey
FRANCES HUNT
Honor Society, Girl Reserve, Tom Tom.
Frances wishes to give advice to all who are contemplating cutting bangs. She speaks from experience, so take heed girls, don''t do it. Some folks think she never comes from behind her goggles but she does and even surprises them with her wit.
Bitter Truth: She drives Henry's latest limousine.
ARCHIE HACKETT
Archie has certainly improved his sophistication since those freshman days when he insisted that he wanted to go to Norman in "gym." He has specialized in a commercial course and now intends to become an expert bookkeeper and accountant. We hope he'll ornament the office as he does the corridor.
Bitter Truth: He has an "outward" nature like the frigid zone.
ALLEN HALL
Allen has a big disposition, a big heart, and most prominent of all, a big voice, but a midget body [precious packages come in small bundles]. Tennis is one of his favorite sports. He can hold his audience spell-bound with his soap-box orations.
Bitter Truth: He is almost old enough to use his daddy's razor.
MAE LAND
Indian Club, Girl Scouts.
A vest pocket edition of this year's class and a mighty lively one too. She's like a tadpole in the water and has plunged into the dramatics whirlpool. And, although she vies with the most wee freshie in size she wears her mantle of senior dignity like the most solemn senior when she wants to do so.
Bitter Truth: He was so bashful she had to propose.
RANDELL BARRETT
Modesty is his twin brother. Randell is rather bashful and refuses to admit he's an unusual personage. Sh-h-, he was once a real Sultan with a harem. Who knows but in this fact lies the reason why he has no heart for the ladies.
Bitter Truth: He bought his crown on the installment plan.
RUBY WALDREP
This "Tulsa Maid" intends to occupy a place in the business world as a private secretary, but the saints preserve her from all broken typewriters. She'd hike ten miles for a piece of chocolate candy.
Bitter Truth: Alarm clocks don't even register with her.
RICHARD C. HOY
Stagecraft, Senate, Hi-Y. Prior to this year "Dick" attended school at Senn High School in Chicago. He's handy man any place, but home. Furnished with necessary rope, nails, wire, scenery, a few switches and electric lights, and some chewing gum, Richard can stage any play in the latest approved Stage Craft Club manner.
Bitter Truth: His body and soul may be here but his heart is rumored to be in Chicago.
JULIA KEELY [Keily]?
"What are you writing, Julia?" asked her mother. "Love songs, mother," said Julia. They say he lives in Oklahoma City, and that's why she has time to compose songs. You wouldn't think Julia would indulge in such things for she is greatly interested in basketball.
Bitter Truth: She wants to teach the South American girls how to be graceful.
CHARLES HALM
School Life, Tom Tom. This genius is too modest to bloom forth in all his glory. But despite his modesty, his fame is abroad. One of his teachers was heard to say that his excellent handwriting make grading his papers a pleasure. He is a business man of no mean ability evern if he is a famous blusher.
Bitter Truth: There ain't none; it's all mighty sweet.
MARTHA THOMAS
School Life, Athletic Assn.
Martha is another blue-eyed girl with red cheeks. This is her last year in school-then the wide open business world for Martha. Hiking and kodaking are her hobbies, and regular attendance at all school activities a fixed rule of her life.
Bitter Truth: Martha is deceptive in that she pretends to be uninteresting.
HAROLD GILLESPIE
Track.
Paul Denny announces in advance that Harold "is a good man." At any rate he specializes in geology and "likes the girls." He has been in Tulsa High School three and a half years and intends to go to Oklahoma University.
Bitter Truth: He is a good mixer--punch and dates.
HELEN J. ANDREWS
Helen frankly confesses that her chief interest is in the masculine sex. It may be added that this interest is reciprocated. She came to T. H. S. this year from Cottey College, and quickly found her place among the B corridor promenaders. She likes shows, dances, cars, in fact anything that means freedom from work.
Bitter Truth: She considers C10 an ideal place in which to slumber.
GEORGE HARPER
George is a radio fan and certainly knows how to do some fast tuning in. He also knows how to give a perfect vocal imitation of a radio on a night when there's static in the air, behaving exactly as it should not behave. George is built like a hickory sapling and has the voice of a prima donna.
Bitter Truth: George likes "most anything."
SAMUELLA BAILEY
Samuella is quite reserved but there is a warm fire of congeniality burning within. She is tall, dark and, very slender, and has brown eyes, all of which suggests the artistic element. But Samuella is also a practical girl who intends to go to college. During her four years in Tulsa High School, she has consistently patronized all school activities.
Bitter Truth: Samuella likes dates---when they come in a jar.
