ROBERT CossAeooN Boom SCIENTIFIC Boon has been a member of the class since it was organized, and classes wouldn't be the same without him. He believes that He who laughs last, laughs best, but he dislikes a lousy ioke. Boon likes to go golfing, bowling and hiking. For nourishment he likes hamburgers and French fries. His plan for the future is to be an electronics engineer. We wish him well in the field of electronics, and we also hope that he and Bill Daller have fun in Canada with the Forest Rangers.

ELEANOR ELIZABETH BOULDEN ELE SCIENTIFIC Ele, being a regular member of the class since kindergarten, has won many friends with her dazzling personality. Her favorite pastime is dancing, with Dykes of course, and eating potato salad.

During this time he has participated in many school activities. Bill is a familiar figure on the football and base- ball fields. We all seem to know who is going to come into economics class fifteen minutes late. It's Bill! His favorite pastime of sleeping should explain this. Although Bill is undecided about his future plans, we know that he'lI succeed in whatever he chooses to do. Good luck, Bill!

Pleasant High School, and since then she has gained many friends. A certain fellow named Wayne is Bev's weakness, and he fits in perfectly with her favorite pastime: dancing. She plans to go into the commercial field after graduation. Maybe she won't be peeved by the lunchtime French studiers in the office. We hope Bev's secret ambition of growing a few inches comes true, but we like her small. Glee Club 2, 3, 4, Choir 3, 47 Public Speaking 3, Clay Tablet 4.

LARRY ' LARRY DEAN SCIENTIFIC Larry came to Claymont from Linwood, Pa.. in the eighth grade. lf he isn't riding around in a blue Merc, he's with a pretty girl. Girls play a big part in his life as he loves to dance. Larry thinks, Like them all but love none is the best philosophy. If Larry gets through French II he intends to further his education at the college of his choice, even though teachers are his pet peeve. Maybe someday instead of whizzing by in a Merc, it will be in a iet plane.

MARY AGNES DENNIS HMURH SCIENTIFIC Mur came here in the seventh grade from Mont Clare, Pa. Since she has been here at Claymont, she has gained many friends. Through these acquaintances she has developed the favorite pastime of talking on the telephone. One of these friends couldn't do French if it weren't for Mur's good tutoring. Although Mur has many friends, her pet peeve is people who criticize her driving. Whenever anything makes Mur mad, she never fails in saying That's scroungief' But whether she is happy or sad, you can always hear that infectious giggle.

When a iob has to be done, Bob is the one to do it. Bob's future plans are optional, it's either the service or college. Lots of luck, Bob, in whatever you choose to do. Football I, 2, 3, 4, J. V.
