P fe P Reiki JUNE LAVERNE LANDIS Julie 18, 1929 LOL7LdiS', Basketball 1213 Glee Club 11,2,3,41g Track 12,3,41g Soccer 13,413 Drum Majorette 1413 Patrol 12,3,41g Co- Captain of Patrol 1-11, Yearbook Staff 1415 G.A.A. 13,413 Prompter of Senior Play 141. This young lady needs no introduction, since she, as we all know, is our snappy drum majorette. Laverne is a girl with that rare combination of beauty and brains. She has proved herself to be a great scholar, and as the result, her name has been ap- pearing on the honor rolls. She likes sports, and one of her hobbies is the reading of good books. Oh, yes! Her main interest is centered around Nar- von. Laverne has served faithfully on the patrol and is always eager to do that which is asked of her. She likes music very much as is a valuable asset to the Glee Club. Many times after school we have seen Laverne in Room 3, training some of the girls in the Elementary and Junior High School to handle the baton as skillfully as she does. Laverne has no definite plans for the future, but her one hope is to establish a home of her own. ROBERT MARTIN MAST January 25, 1929 Bob Salisbury: Glee Club 11,2,31g Play 12,313 Baseball 12,313 New Holland: Glee Club 1419 Baseball 141. Bob is a jolly boy who loves to tell jokes and have a good laugh. Joining us in our senior year, Bob came from Salisbury Township, and is completing his high school course here. He is always willing and ready to help anyone. This is one of the many fine qualities of this tall, brown-haired and gray-eyed boy. Bob likes any type of sports, but around home, horseback riding and hunting take up a great deal of his time, with listen- ing to classical music, as a phase of relaxation, running a close third. He also enjoys baseball. The future of this energentic young man is almost certain, as Bob plans to be another famous Lancaster County farmer, pro- ducing the food for this world, as his family has been doing for a long time. The many 4-H awards in Bob's possession almost assure him of the well-wished success in store for him in this field. ED MERSKY February 17, 1930 Ed Senior Play 1413 Glee Club 11,2,3,41g Band 11,215 Orchestia 11,211 Soccer 12341: Baseball 11,3,41g Soc- cer Captain 131: Basketbali 12,3,41: Basketball Captain 141g Quartet 131. Tall, dark and attractive, Ed undoubtedly walks away with the sports honors of the class. He has been active in every phase of sports. He has been very outstanding on every team in which he participated, and took part in four county cham- pionship teams. Being very scholarly, Ed constantly makes the Hrst honor roll of the school. He has taken part in many school activities, and his dramatic ability was magnificently portrayed as Mike Turner in the senior play Two Gentlemen and Verona. Possessing a deep, bass voice, he did a great deal toward helping the glee club, and was outstanding in his trio, quartet and mixed chorus work. The future is rather uncertain, although he plans to go to college. 'We are sure that whatever field Ed chooses, he will malfe an enviable record for himself. 7 ' la. ' il.

This energentic lad joined our class early in his school career. He has been endowed with the abilities of a chemist and an elec- trician. lt is to f'Krick, to whom We owe considerable gratitude for the success of our senior play since he supervised the light- ing effects quite capably and assisted the scenery committee as well. As captain of the school patrol, together with his varied school interests, he was certainly busy much of the time. Never- the less, Dick is always willing to further his interests in the numerous sports since he proved his abilities in basketball, track and served as sports manager in his junior year. This all around lad is also musically inclined, for he has contributed his extensive talents to band, orchestra, and glee club. As for the future. we know Krick will succeed, for there are many opportunities where abilities are as mumerous as his. JAMES TODD LAMMEY August 2, 1929 Lam'mey Soccer 1353 Track 13,453 Band 11,2,3,45g Orchestra 11,2,3,45g T.C.N. 12,3,45g Quill 8x Scroll 1455 Patrol 11,253 Glee Club 11,453 Class President 1355 Yearbook Editor 1459 Senior Play 145. From our very first day of school, Jim's red locks have add- ed that needed touch of color to our class. Not only his hair, but his wit and humor have also been an asset to all who have known him. Lammey has shown his ability as a leader, when he held the offices of President of the class during the junior year, and of Editor-in-Chief of the Yearbook Staff during this last year. Music occupies a large place in Jimmy's heart. You can always de- pend upon him to remember the name of that song you just can't seem to recall. He also takes pride in his clarinet, which he plays in the band. Track is Lammey's favorite sport, followed by soccer. Al- though he has no definite plans for the future, we all feel that his accomplishments will be of great renown. HAROLD HAMILTON LANDIS October 4, 1929 Had Glee Club 11,2,3,45g Band 12,3,45g Orchestra 12,3, 45, Film Staff 11,255 Basketball 13,453 Soccer 145g Track 13,453 Yearbook StaH 1453 Class Treasurer 135g Vice President 11,255 Quartet 145. Had is one of our out-of-town students who commutes from Groffdale. Starting his New Holland education as a freshman, it didn't take Landis long to acquaint himself and establish his station as a top honor student. Also as an active participant in extra curricular work, Had took glee club four years and made the senior quartet, rounding out his musical career by playing the clarinet in the band and orchestra. As for sports, Harold likes them all, and has a well-filled athletic curriculum. He has held a number of class offices, among them that of treasurer, where he proved himself quite a financial whizz. This talent won him a number of important committee positions, including chairmanship of the group handling the fi- nances of the senior play. He was also a tireless worker as a member of the film staff. His hearty laugh will surely win him many friends. - Page Fourteen H -S

g il! BETTY JANE MILLER July 29, 1929 Bettie Glee Club f1,2,3,4lg Cafeteria l3,4J. Betty is one of the few people who comply with the rule Silence is golden. Not that she can't express herself when someone asks for her opinion. Yet she can listen to all the hub- bub going on and formulate her own opinions, which is a very good thing. For two years she has served as cashier in the cafeteria, and served quite capahly at that. Her experience will come in handy in the future. The opposite sex is of no great interest to Betty at the present time, for her chief interest lies in reading. Play- ing the piano is another of her favorite activities. Whenever there was work to be done, you could always de- pend on Bettie to come through with the goods. Practically every morning before school, she could be found typing in Room 5. Betty's ambition is to become a secretary, and we know she will succeed 1n her chosen profession. WILLIAM JOSEPH MORRISON November 30, 1929 Morrison Quill Sz Scroll 141, T.C.N. Q1,2,3,4l, Associate Ed- itor of T.C.N. C453 Glee Club f1,2,4lg Senior Play 1433 Patrol i1,2lg Yearbook Staff 1435 Class President f1,4l. For twelve years the Class of '37 has felt the magnetic pres- ence of Morrison. His dark hair and flashing smile can be seen as he rushes about the school performing his many tasks, as Senior President, Associate Editor of T.C.N., member of Quill 8: Scroll, and Yearbook Staff. Bill is quite a gifted artist, and is often called upon to dis- play his talents. A wide field of activities hold Bill's interest. He finds enjoyment in everything from stamp collecting to a gay lively party, a fact which earned for him his title of class wit. Morrison is never without a witty reply, and does much to keep the classrooms and halls lively. Bill plans to go to college after graduation to study journal- ism, the profession he has chosen as his career. ALFRED ROY OVERLY September 14, 1929 Fred Glee Club f1,2,3,4lg Track f3,4l. Ever see this tall, dark, wavy-haired lad whizz past you in his Dad's Plymouth? That's right! It's none other than that East Earl representative, better known to his classmates as Fred. lf he isn't racing to school at the last second you can be assured he's taking a crowd of his numerous friends to a game, since he possesses a keen interest in all sports. Making his debut at NHHS as a f1'eshman, we often wonder how we endured those occasional monotonous periods without his witty remarks. However, on the serious side, Fred was always noted for a vivid memory, especially in history class, since this proved to be his most interesting subject. Nevertheless, he also asserted his abilities in all school activities. His leisure time is taken up by skating, hunting, and track. In the crystal ball of the future we see a college career, which we sincerely hope he will attain. Goals are not always reached, but success is derived from attempting to attain them . . . so, Good Luck! Fred! Page Sixteen
