fumes Lester Witman July 27, 1929 Jim Glee Club 12,31. Jim became a member of our class in eleventh grade. He lives at G1'eenbank, and every morning can be seen bringing a group of students to school in his car. Girls and the Lincoln Zephyr are his two loves. Who can say which one comes first? Jim is fun-loving and he likes tn tell jokes, particularly during classes. His one desire after graduation is to become a mechanic, and we hope this wish is fulHlled. l Orpha Marie Yoder August 12, 1930 Orpha Cheerleader 11,2,3,41g Band 11,2,31g Glee Club 11,2,31g Basketball Manager 131 Q Class Secretary 1313 Patrol 131, G.A.A. 12,315 Soccer 1219 Orchestra 11,21. Hoo-Rah! Hoo-Rah! That's Orpha in front leading ing cheers at a basketball or soccer game. She has been one of the original seven of our class. This blonde, blue-eyed, young lady has always been a good student. Orpha knows what she wants from life and . . . having what it takes to achieve success, she will probably reach her goal.

Being one of the shorter members of our class has not been a hindrance to this pretty miss. As Vi1'gie in the Senior Play, she played the role of the younger sister splendidly. Besides sports, Janie's favorite pastime is going to the movies, and seldom does she miss any of the movies that she considers the best. Since she is a commercial student, Janie plans to do oflice work after graduation.

He has come to this school for the past eleven years, for he lives right out- side the borough limits. Dick excells in sports, but the one he likes best is soccer. He eapably served the Leoninus Staif as its editor-in-chief. Dick plans to go to college, but just where is still a bit uncertain.

She is not only active in sports, but all extra- curricular activities. If you hear loud laughter somewhere, you know Dot is in the group helping in the fun and frolicking. She is one of the members who has been in N.H.H.S. for all twelve years of schooling. Dot has taken the commercial course and some dav she would like to become a private secretary. Paul Weaver March 23, 1930 Wen ver Basketball 125g Soccer 12,359 Track 12,3,45g Glee Club 11,35 9 Baseball 125. Weaver is another member from Blue Ball, who joined our ranks in his freshman year. His contagious smile, suavity, and characteristic appear- ance make him stand out as a typical high school fellow. His ridiculous sayings pop up at the most convenient times. Weaver has taken part in class functions and in sports. We will probably see him as a poultry dealer in future years. February 18, 1930 Dick
