 5( firefl fobe Oracle iNjfW 23E LEROY .1. GOTTS1I ALL I’m sure we all remember Roy. lie is one of those earnest chaps. I’pon entering Abington. Roy joined the ranks of the ocationals, and later became a member of the Vocational Club. IIow about The Ifof al Mounted There we saw Roy as a real northwestern fellow, always on the job, ready for whatever might pop up. .Vs Roy’s Senior year drew nigh, he joined the Mathematics Club. Here again Roy always gave bis best attention and helped us out over the rough spots. I think one of Ron’s secret sayings is. “Think before you act.’’ “Even children followed with endeavoring wile And plucked hin gown, to share the good man's smile.” Uo„ HELEN GUNOLD Do we know Helen? I should say we do. If not found fit the candy counter, she will invariably be found in the library. And how she can take charge of that library! How about the week Miss Ayers was away? Of course, we expect this of Helen: she was secretary and vice-president of the Library Club. Resides this, she’s a member of the Dramatic, Commercial. Nature. Tennis, and Spanish Clubs. What would tin Senior Play and Dance Committees have accomplished without Helen’s advice? Withstanding all this—if you want to have some fun— find Helen. 1 witty woman is a treasure; a witty beauty is a power” Patsy EDITII MARIE HADDOCK Ede's quiet appearance has fooled more than one of her acquaintances—when one expects it least, she is likely to come out with a long streak of talks about—well, usually her bookkeeping. As a Sophomore. she was a member of Mr. Johnson’s famous choir. In her Senior year, she was a loyal member of the Library and Commercial Clubs. Ede does not go out for much, but what she does go out for. she usually makes a success. Ede with her “Miss Prim ways has quite a show of spirit underneath— especially when her clever church leader gets her started. Every one taking the first Glenside bus knows that. Soft is the music that would charm forever.” Ede -4 2 )►-

JOHN GIVENS Germantown lost a good athlete and a regular fellow when it allowed John to come to Abington in liis Senior year. While at Germantown, In played football and baseball, but the eligibility rules put him on the sidelines here. He didn’t fuss. He just started a new sport at Abington, golf. Between times, he showed his spirit by playing class football, and by giving the baseball Varsity a little practice. It didn’t take this young fellow four years to catch the spirit. I vet’s crown him Father of Golf at Abington. He hath a tear for pity, and a hand Open as day for melting charity. . err a EVELYN MAY GLAZIER Saw ye the lass wi’ the bonnie blue e’en? Yes, that’s Evelyn, who came to us from Weldon. Although she is one of the youngest members of her class, she is a consistent Honor Roll star. With all her hard studying, she managed to he an active member of the Latin. French. Dramatic, and Glee Flubs and gave her support to the Mathematics, Library and Interims Flubs. What would the ORACLE do without her as poetry editor? Maybe. Evelyn will be better remembered as Maggie in the Senior Play. (Vrtainly the school has been better on account of her having been here. But it doesn’t matter what Ev does, she always stands out. just a dear little Ahingtonian. “In whose tittle body lodged a mighty mind. Ev MOLLY ELIZABETH GOHOREFCI Mill is Old Man Ivozy's worst enemy. She is chief typist for the Oracle. And what does that mean? WORK! Mill is always laden with yards of Oracle material—how she hustles around! From the typing room to the “Lady in Blue’s” room, and to the typing room again ! Aside from being very industrious at home, she is also Miss Ayers’ right-hand lady in the library, and treasurer of the Library Flub. She belongs to the Glee, Fommercial. French. Girls’ Athletic, and Nature Flubs. And Mill is a four-letter girl in sweetness! “For where is any author in the world Who teaches such beauty as a woman's eye ” -« f 25 )►- Mill
