OLIVE AUCKER, Port Treverton. Normal. Callif, Y. W. C. A. OLI ' E is a graduate of the Susquehanna Townshii) High School at Harrisburg. She joined us when we were happy Juniors and is one of the best students of the class. I wonder why Olive was so very, very lonesome when she first came. There was a reason. She might have wanted to go to Lebanon Valley College As a member of the Y. W. C. A. atid Callie Society, she does much to promote the interest of both. It is Olive ' s desire to become a mission- ary. If she should choose this as her fu- ture work, we feel confident in saying that success is inevitable. MARJORIE AUSTIN, Wilkes-Barre. midge Philo, Y. W. C. A., Normal Course. MIDGE graduated from Wilkes-Barre High School in 1914. At school she showed her ability and talent as a poetess, and her poems sometimes heard by her friends, are very amusing. ' Marjorie is an active member of the Y. W. C. A. and took a part in their play which was given during her Junior Year at Normal. In the Fall of l ' .»l ' ), Midge did not re- turn to B. S. N. S. As her parents in- tended moving to Connecticut, she en- tered a Normal School in that state. Finding it hard to stay away from Bloomsburg Normal, and all her friends here, she came back after school started and was found again on second floor. We are glad .she came back to finish her work with the Class of 19H). •2()

MARION ANDERSON. Milnesville. ANDY. I ' liilo,, V. V. C. A., Noriiial Course. DKAR peo])Ie, allow us to introduce to you, Marion Anderson, commonly known among the girls as Andy. Marion says she is from Hazleton, but reall.v, friends, her home is in Milnes- ville. Perhaps ou have heard of this little ])lace, a suburb of Hazleton. Andy graduated from the Hazleton Township High vSchool and entered Nor- mal during the Junior -ear of the ' Ki Class. Andy is ready for any good time that presents itself, and she has even been caught out of her room during .stud - hour. When she is skipping she is generally located behind some door in someone ' s room, and if asked if she has ] ermission, her answer is of course. Marion ' s highest ambition is to own a dressmaking establishment in Hazle- ton. MABEL M. ANTHONY, Bear Creek. ANTHONY Callie, Normal Course, Y. W. C. . . MABEL entered our noble class in the Fall of I ' - ' U, having graduated as an honor student from Dorranceton High School. Her iileasant manner and happy smile soon won her a place in the hearts and lives of her fellow students. She joined the Calliepian Literary Society where .she has made quite a hit with her humorous monologues, which she delivers with the abilitv of an artist. Mabel does not believe in skipping but does not hesitate to join in any fun which happens to come her way. One of her greatest accomplishments, acquir- ed during her stay at Normal, is the art of rolling apples down the hall after the bell rings for lights out. None knew her but to love her, None named her but to praise. 25

BENJAMIN BARRE BAER, Wilkes-Barre. ben C.-illie, Class Artist, Normal Course, THIS long lanky unsophisticated youth, alias Bullets, is destined to be- come a not unworthy rival of the great sketch artist, Gibson. His wonderful designing originality showed itself iu his [unior year when he took a dislike to the (iriginal class pennant, and decided to submit a new design for adoption. The class showed its appreciation of his ability by adopting the new design. Benjamin admires the girls but every girl is the same to him. Often upon be- ing asked to go on a hike with .some girls his invariable answer was, I ' ll go, but I won ' t fu.ss, by judas. His favorite sport is tennis, and, the weather being favorable, you are nearly always sure to find him on the tennis court. The army has a great attraction for Ben, so after completing his education at .some medical college, you may find him in the United States Army as Major of the Medical De]iartment. The class predicts a wonderful success for Ben. ANTHONY BALCHUNAS. Mt. Carmel. B. l, Pliilo, Normal Course, Varsity Foot Ball 3 4. ' DAL comes from that strong and .sturdy city of Mt. Carmel. Don ' t you think he looks it ? He entered Nor- mal two years ago, and has spent the majorit - of the time since then in striv- ing to obtain a Palmer Writing Certifi- cate. His massive crop of blonde hair, curl- ing gracefulh ' to all points of the com- pass, immediately marks him as a deep thinker, and also suggests the athletic temperament. Anthony is very fond of the ladies, but .since his ideals have at- tained to an almo.st inaccessible height, he has been unable to find one worthy of his entire attention. His favorite haunts are the pie factory and the back seats in Cha])el After Bal had been playing foot ball for two or three weeks, the dormi- tory boys thot they would give him an everlasting tribute for his good work. Thereupon we honor thee, Balchunas, became the voice of the students. It never (laid a fellow to leave his alarm clock in view when Bal came around for his o-reat deli ' ht was to listen to their melodious music. ■ 27
