v1DE.T'rE ANNUAL 21 RALPH BEATTIE 'X Ralphf' General Course Eleutherian Literary Society C2-3-435 Scientific Society 147. Behold the iron nian of our class. Possessed of a pow- erful physique his only regret is that he didn't use it on the athletic lield. He knows more about the Colonial than Mr. Howell himself and the worst part of it is that he admits it. In fact if the actresses don't see Ralph in the front row they naturally die of disappointment C or is it relicff? Ralphis a good sport though and we wish him luck. RICHARD BECKLEY J 'Dick Social Cominittee 1375 Hi-Y Club C393 Christmas Play Coinniittee I-43. Mr. Herr thought the 1925 class too fast a crowd for Dick , That's why he's graduating with us. How- ever, we'll wager Mr. Herr would have changed his op- inion about Dick, if he had only been with Richard the night some dare-devil cop ot' the Mountville Police Force held Dick up on the charge of HOl16-3.1'11l- ed driving under an arclight. lYe all were mighty interested as to the whereabouts of his other arm on that particular occasion till the mystery was cleaned up one day when Dick dryly piped, Oh, Have-a- Stick, will ya ? Dick later told us his national antheni was Good Ole Jo. JAMES BENNETT V' Tied General Course Eleutherian Literary Society C-U5 Commercial Club 641. Here is the Haining youth of our class. Step right up and call nu- Speedy, that's hini, and Chl girls, you ought to seevhiinuhlusli. He is one ot Klughis shieks and watches all the daines that travel west on Chestnut street. His inain weakness is girls, and is always talk- ing about Mary, he claims it is the only girl he ever lik- ed Cexcept those he flirts withl. That's enough of his had traits. As a class we all like his candy. Since the Tin Pony was played at the Hamilton, we call hiin Corps lYhereVer you see Corporal you will see the

20 vimrrr ANNUAL partnient. Talk! well this little lady. can tell you more about her last night's heavy date in ten minutes than we could in ten hours! There was a time when 'Lillian was fond of Buds not IVilbur or rosebuds, either, but late- ly her taste has run to Bobs. In spite of her many social activities, Lillian is one of our shining lights in short- hand, economics, well in fact almost anything 1?j VVell, Lillian, if you don 't fall over any more sticks and sprain your ankle we believe you will make a very good, also quiet 1?J secretary, for a short time, after' which We think you will progress better doing general housework. PAUL BALMER ffslwweyff General Course Football 1433 Eleutherian Literary Society 14l.' - Here is the shiek from Leola. Shorty is very pop- ular among the fellows of our class and is always in for a good time. He is a good sport and a lot of fun was had with him by the football team. Although no regu- lar on the team, when he got in a game 'fShorty,' was a hard lighter. There is only one thing wrong with Shorty and that is whenever you touch him he jumps a mile off of the ground and leaves out a blood curdling yell which is enough to scare the dead. Shorty is al- ways acting a fool and I believe Mr. Madison was right when he said Balmer is the clown of the school. Well Shorty you are all right and the class of M '26 wishes you the best of sue less. 1 JEAN BAUMAN ' Zfecm ' ' General Course Glee Club 1433 Organized Chorus 11-2-313 Florentine Literary So- ciety 11-4Jg Art Club 1315 Science Club 143. Did you ever see Jean put a natural wave in her hair? VVell, if you didn 't you missed the sight of your life. It might be truthfully said that .Iean's motto is Much study is a weariness of the fieshf' She believes that we should not overwork ourbrains. That's quite right, Jean. I can 't say what Jean 's ambition is, but I can say it is not to be a physics professor.

Tl1is kind-hearted lassie is our most studious student. She always knows her lesson, and never refuses to help any of her more careless sister class-mates. Selina us- ually-spends her sunnner vacations in Tennessee, and we hear soniething of a boy-you understand, of course, a certain cousin. Don't niind us teasing you, Selma, niost girls have a special cousin. After finishing hercollege course, Selina is going to be a teacher, and Mid '26 knows she is going to be a success, since she has had considerable practice in that vocation in old Stevens High.

The quotation, good goods conle in sinall packages finds a fine example in Dick . He gets there just the same though. He finds great trouble in holding fast to his jewelry, especially his basketball. Dick', is a con- verted cavalier in so far as he has a habit of having his dates in automobiles? Some time that road louse he is so often seen in is going to fall apart and thereby save a lot of people the trouble of losing their religion. As a last word of advice we hereby advise Dick to stay out of Harrisburg? The best of luck Dickie
