m m s BERNICE CHRISTENSON Glee Club 4; Class Sec y- 2; Class Sec ' y 4 This golden-haired little lass is one of the sweetest girls of the Senior Class. Her sunny disposition and laughter are unfailing and anyone who wants to disperse the blues need only seek her company. Her two main weaknesses are mirrors and boys, but she never has want for either. She is planning to start the little kiddies of the kindergarten on their path tow ards learning. EDWIN T. CLOUSER Football 3, 4; Basketball 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 1, 2 If at first you don ' t succeed, try, try, again. That seems to be Eddie ' s motto. And that it will work is beyond doubt. He has shown us that he is a real athlete. Both the foot- ball and basketball teams could not have got along without his services. We are told that Ed has a crush on a certain Mabel. He is undecided which college he will enter, but whichever one he chooses, it can count itself as lucky. HAROLD MICHAEL CRONIN Student Council 1; Play Committee 4; Track 3, 4; Glee Club 4; Baseball 1 Mike the son of a fire eater while attending East incidentally took part in several school activities; namely Track and Glee Club. After graduation Mike intends to become one of Erie ' s political bosses. Maybe some day he ' ll give us all good jobs at the city hall. CHARLES GEORGE DOWNING Football 2, 3; Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4; Baseball 1; Glee Club Play Committee 4; President of Boys Club Yes, this is Bus. The fellow you ' ve heard so much about His wonderful work on our athletic teams, has w on recog- nition throughout Western Pennsylvania. The sight of Bus up there on the platform receiving his sweater, has been a fa- miliar and pleasant sight to us all. He claims he is not a ladies man, but when one is as good-loking as he is, this does not seem possible. He hasn ' t decided w hich college he will enter, but whichever one it is, it can feel lucky that it has received one of the best all around students of the 1926 Class. PAULINE EVANS Glee Club 4 Pauline has a special art of distinguishing and appreciating the joyful side of life. She certainly has a cheerful and sunny disposition. She intends to be a nurse and, with her sterling character, we feel sure that she will do w ell in her chosen profession. 22

JUDITH CAROL BRADY Glee Club 4; M Club 4; Dramatic Club 1, 2 Come and trip it as you go On the light fantastic toe. Judy is a member of the Lawrence Park gang and is al- ways ready for a good time. Se was leading lady in our class play. KENNETH LESLIE BRITTON Science Club 1,2; Minstrel Club 1 Mirth, knowledge and understanding have seldom been so w ell molded together in one person as in Kenneth, Not only that, but he ' s a good dancer. A school dance w ould be in- complete without him. If he ' ll continue the good work after graduation, his future is assured. HAROLD B. BURGNON Spanish Club, 1, 2; Class Sec ' y-1 ' ' eAS. 3; President, 4; De- bating 4; Ring Committee 4 Gaze upon our President. Under his firm guidance, 1926 has at last gained her footing and taken her rightful place among the classes, as leader. Harold, to all appearances is a bit bashful. But w e are told that once in a while he steps out, and gives the girls a chance. His personality and ability have won him many friends, and w e know that his name will always live in the history of East. When he enrolls at the University of Michigan School of Engineering next year, he will enter with the best wishes of the class, for his con- tinued success. ELMER JOSEPH BURKE Orchestra 3, 4 This good-looking fellow is w ell known around the school. He appears to be a deep thinker and although he never seems to be in a hurry, he always gets there. He hasn ' t told us his intentions after graduation, but whatever they are, we wish him the best of luck. FRANCIS H. CARDOT Swimming 1; Executive Committee 4; Cheer Leader 3, 4; Football Manager 4; Tennis 3, 4; Class President 3; Glee Club 4; Spanish Club 1, 2; Debating 3, 4; Senior Class Basket belli 4; Social Committee 3 Chairman Bucknell Glee Club Finance Committee 4 Francis is one of the biggest men in every movement of our class. It seems that whenever something was to be done, it could not be accomplished v ithout his aid. He is always one of the most pleasant boys in class — in fact we have never seen him frown. To know him as to receive a hearty greet- ing whenever you meet him. He will be missed after grad- uation by his many friends who are hoping that he will score an overwhelming victory in the game of life. 21

Delia ' s recitations are a joy to her teachers. GEORGE CALVIN HENRY Glee Club 3, 4. In every deed of fun he had a heart to resolve, a head to contrive, and a hand to execute. Your many friends give their best wishes for a long and successful career. LINNIE PEARL HILL Glee Club 2, 3; President 4; Sunrise Staff 4; Play Committee 4; Mam ' zelle Taps 2; Captain Crossbones 3. This raven-haired maiden has often aflorded the students much pleasure by her singing. Linnie is one of the most willing workers of our Class; and her cheerfulness is one of her greatest assets. She is planning to attend Normal School in the near future. IRENE HOLMWOOD Some think she s quiet, but that ' s where some are wrong. Irene is always ready for a good time, but she finds time for her lessons too. A most agreeable companion, a truest friend. LAWRENCE RUDOLPH HOWELL Chemistry Club 2; Radio Club 1; Advanced Chemistry Club 4 Lawrence has worked hard this year, so that he might graduate with this class. He is full of fun, and has a ready smile for everyone. He ' ll talk his way to success, we are sure. Some day we ' ll hear of him as a great chemist. Yes, you ' ve seen him at the Perry. m M 23
