CURWENSVILLE PUBLIC SCHOOLS PAGE 21 N WRIGLEY, GEORGE Percy Great works are performed not by strength but by perseverance. Let me introduce you to this young and happy gentleman. As a student he has won the flavor of both his classmates and faculty. Latin is one of his favorite studies, and to hear him read or recite Vergil, is amazing, This lad is very young, but is brilliant -and has great determining powers g therefore we predict success for his future. He is secretary 01' our class, and also president of our Colonel Irvin Literary Society. YACABUCCI, ELDA Yelda Beneath this mild exterior, there lies a deal of mischief. A glance at this sober countenance, and we think her as a quiet, studious lassie, but those who know her Well, can vouch that she deceives her appearance.

She plays, draws, dances, swims, and-well, anything you might think of that's worth doing. Although very industrious, she is always ready to play a joke on some of her unsuspecting friends. That she is jolly and full of fun her friends can tes- tify. Cora is Vice-President of our class and also President of Colonel Patton Lit- erary Society. coke L WEBER, HAZEL Chubbie Bob'ing up and down. maiden? If good natured she will helfp banish all your cares and make you for-' get your trorusbles. However by her kind disposition, her desire is to help every- thing and everyone in general. Do you know this fair not look her up, with her smile, and talented music, berries l X WALL, ELIZABETH Dizzy Brilliant from which all knowledge radiates. Among the many bright lights which shine so brightly in the class of 1922, there is none whose luster so dazzingly illuminates the western sky, as does our auburn-haired Eliz. We feel sure that in the course of events, the house which sheltered this infant, will be dec- orated with tablets and memorials testi- fying to this fact. She acts as secretary in our Colonel Patton Literary Society, and is also treasurer of our class.

To manage our class affairs we elected as president Robert Haddeng vice- president, Cora Wolf, treasurer, Lo Rene Marting and secretary, Elizabeth Lantz. As we were all very young, our greatest determination was to give up most of our pleasure, and start right by studying, during all of our spare time. In this respect We accomplished just what we started out to ac- complish, each one gaining distinction and renown, throughout the whole year. Our Sophomore year, was: one of the happiest years of our school life. Our first move was tohold a class meeting, and decide whether we should continue our officers and o-ur colors. As two of our officers had withdrawn, we elected as our president, Byron McDowell. As we had no work to be done by a secretary, we did not elect any that year, but still held the same colors. During that year we entertained the Seniors by giving them a banquet, which 'proved a great success throughout. We also en- joyed a sled ride to Clearfield, and also was entertained at the home of Byron McDowell. We had a. membership of thirty-six, and with loyal support from every one, it was not unexpected that we should be' winners in most of our undertakings. , When we had gone a notch higher, we found we were,'Juniors. With special privileges of upper classmen, we indulged in many social events. The first was ia party, given at the home of our French and History teacher, Miss Shively. Next we enjoyed ia sleighing party to Cleariield, and afterwards partook of a delicious chicken and waffle supper. This was the first year basketball was played in our High School. Most of the star play- ers were our Junior girls. At the close of school we were entertained in a most pleasing way, at the home of Byron McDowell.
