Abner is the George Washington of our class, leading us in peace as well as in war. Yes, he certainly is a capable leader, for he has so many presidents to his name we don't even consider one or two any more. Now we don't want you to get the idea from this that he always plays the part of a dignitary. It's his delight to relieve the strain of leadership by becoming one of the multitude and being the jolliest of the bunch for a while. Harry is so used to getting shocks from electrical apparatus in the laboratory that he expects to use this information in his future work as an electrician.

Sam is our tall, light-hearted Romeo who gets a big kick out of pulling wise cracks. Invariably you'll hear the group in which he is present roaring with laughter. He is interested in sports as you can readily see by his record in athletics. You'll have a better idea of his alertness if you've watched him locate the net during close basketball games. Of course he is interested in all his studies, to say nothing of New Holland girls. Sam is interested in music, for besides possessing a iine baritone voice, he is an able trombone player 1rod swallower1. He is considering music as his life work. MARY HELLER Quiet and yet so gay, Sweetly sincere in every way. 1 ACTIVITIES :-Glee Club 11-2-3-415 Student Council 12-41. Mary, as most of us know her, is rather reserved and bashful. This, of course, is no reason to think she is afraid of the world. Arlene, who is really acquainted with her, can tell you how natural she is when with some- one whom she really knows. Mary, erstwhile Polly, is one of the in- telligent members of our class. She will assure you that Chemistry is her favorite study, for she just dotes on mixing acids and bases, and getting as a result, sopper culphatef' Mary is interested in something else besides lessons. For some reason she has a particular interest in the state of Maryland. Perhaps it is because she received a card from there recently. We are sure that Mary will be successful in her chosen career, private secretary.

ACTIVITIES!-AI'tiSt of El Dorado 141, Senior Play 141g Vice-President Girl Reserves 141g Orchestra 1413 Glee Club 11-2-3-41. A gay and fun loving nature is Ocky's unique characteristic. It is she who furnishes a wisecrack for every laugh, giggle, or chuckle that comes from a group of her friends. Al- though she hasn't been with us since we were Freshies, she has helped make our class jolly during the Junior and Senior years. Ocky can be very politefand dignified at times. Anytime during a Saturday afternoon you may hear her smiling Thank you behind one of the counters at Penney's. As Art Editor of the E1 Dorado, Ocky has made her ideas and visions assume tangible form. Indeed, she deserves this distinction, for she has certainly carried out her work per- fectly.

ACTIVITIES!-Glee Club 12-3-41, Assistant Business Manager of El Dorado 141 g Assistant Art Editor 1413 Dramatic Club 1115 Student Council 11-2-3-413 Senior Play 141. John is the one boy in the class who can get good marks with little study. That, of course, does not imply that he doesn't study, but he certainly gets his lessons easily. As to his big heart, well, he's glad to help anyone with a question, that is, if he has it himself. Just watch that uncontrollable smile sometime if you mention his Ford, or ask him how he likes to help mount snaps for the El Dorado. John is greatly interested in Physics books and Popular Science magazines, ham sand- wiches and girls. Of course, you will deduce from the first of these, that he expects to become a mechanic.

She takes an active part in most school activities and this year has reached her goal-Editor of the El Dorado. Well, she has earned this honor, for seldom has Ruth come to classes without having her lessons prepared. Solid Geometry problems? Rudy just craves them. However, don't think she is always serious and in deep thought, for in back of it all is a rather mischievous nature. Ruth would like to be a teacher some day, and from the experience she has already had it teaching, we feel assured that fame awaits er. Seventeen

ELLIS HERR Much study maketh weafry the flesh. ACTIVITIES!--Glee Club 119 g Latin Club 125 g Social Service Club 1353 Biology Club 1415 Basketball 12-415 Senior Play 141. Ellis is the one business man in the class, for although he doesn't own a steel corporation or anything like that, he certainly gets a great deal of enjoyment and profit out of hunting and trapping. It is Ellie's delight to sling a shot gun over his shoulder on a crisp Novem- ber morning and go rabbit hunting. Some- times he totes a club to take care of the contents of his traps. Perhaps those crisp walks also give him energy to be so alert at basketball and so graceful at tennis. Ellie's experiences in plow following, to- gether with a natural aptitude, proves to us that he will be successful in his chosen work, farming. ARLENE LANDIS With malice tow-afrd none, And charity for all. ACTIVITIES:-Student Council 14D 5 Dramatic Club 113g Latin Club 1255 Social Service Club 1335 Utility Club 141. We want you to meet this young lass of the class of '32. A rather sincere member we find her. In fact, we have never known much about her because she is so quiet and grave. She does not cause any trouble or annoyance, for in study periods she always has some work with which to engage herself. Arlene does not know yet what vocation she will enter, but we feel assured it will be something that does not require boastfulness or aggressiveness. What- ever it may be, Arlene, don't forget that the class of '32 is continually rooting for you. ANNA LANDIS 'Ann' is always smiling, Sincefre, and gay. ACTIVITIES :-Glee Club 11-2-3-45 . If you meet a charming girl with pretty big brown eyes and a pleasant smile, you will know it is Ann , She appears to be a quiet member of our class, but if you once become acquainted with her you will find her to be jolly and full of fun. Anna is really very studious. Almost always when you enter the room before school calls in the morning or at noon, you can find her engaged in some study. She seems to have taken a special liking to studying das Deutsch or writing English themes. At present Anna is undecided as to just what her future work will be, but it seems to us that she takes a great interest in home- making. And who ever heard of a homemaker without a home to make!
