RICHARD GLEASON- Dick is one of boys, but he's the basketball loves flashing red convertible his spare time This year he the quieter a whiz on floor. He by in his and spends at janby's. was Hi-Y president and treasurer of the senior class. We all agree that South Amherst's loss was our gain. ROBERT HAMLIN- Hambone is famous for his sarcasm and for his reports in Mr. Bohrer's classes. He constantly re- fers to us as you poor people. Bob is one of the best dressed boys in the class, and he has a flair for portraying drunken choir directors. fOur Touwj. His motor scooter 5is a popular pastime with'him and his endangered friends. KATHERINE HANMER --For many years Kay was one of our high-stepping majorettes. This year she played cymbals and bass drum in the band and was a member of glee club and ensemble. ln our junior year she was O.H.S.'s ICP- resentative to Girls' State. Kay is on the quiet side, but we would all do well if we had a little of her sweetness. BEVERLY HATTER- Beverly is another for whom we predict a bright future. Everybody who knows Beverly is imme- diately taken by her ap- pearance and friendly smile. She is always in demand as a date and is known to carry on quite a heavy correspondence. Bev is a keen observer and is quick to appreciate and sympathize. if Q wgpwh til' nluggi 2 aw' .29 'Nfl N...-f 53 Dill 'i ROBERT HOLDEN-Bob has been our football sal- vation, and his galloping figure was a welcome sight. Basketball is another of his major, accomplishments and O. H. S. will sorely miss his touchdowns and baskets. Although Bob has an aversion to school work, his typing speed is phe- nomenal. He could easily be nicknamed shoulders, and he has a subtle sort of humor that makes a hit with everybody. LINELI. HOLLOWAY- One of the well-known Holloway clan, Linell al- ways seems to see the sun- ny side of life. She is one of our best girl athletes, and her opponents are lit- erally scared of her. Cheer- ful and always ready to help is Linell, and we are proud to have her as a member of the class of '52. DORRIS HOLMES--Dor- ris is another of our phe- nomenal athletes. As class hockey captain, her goals were the terror of all un- der-classmen. She has a wonderful contralto voice and is a big asset to both glee club and ensemble. If she does as well in later years as she has done in high school, this girl can'I miss. NANCY HUNGATE - Nancy, commonly referred to as Hungate is still another of our best ath- letes. Her basketball scores have reached staggering heights. Shes a band mem- ber and plays a terrific French horn. One can see Nancy buzzing around in a gray Pontiac with one arm out the window. She gets letters from Ore- gon but doesn't take them seriously. Nancy plans to be a physical education teacher after graduation from Oberlin College.

LOUISE ELDER - Wee- Zie is our newcomer from Persia and a welcome ad- dition to our class. We all recognize het by her breathless way of talk- ing. She says she can't dance-eonly the Persian way. She showed a nat- ural talent for sports when she made the senior hock- ey team without ever hav- ing,played the game be- fore. After college at Ober- lin, we know that her friendliness will carry her far. CONSTANCE ELLIS- Connie is an amazing ex- ample of excellence in ath- letics. She has made All Star teams all through high school, and has been the captain of many teams. She is co-editor of the girls' sports section in this annual, and she can't be surpassed in enthusiasm. We are sure to see Con- nie in the not-too-distant future as a physical edu- cation teacher. FRANK ELLIS - Frank spends most of his time devising a way to beat the draft, but he has found time to be a whiz at chem- istry and physics and to gun around in his old car with Bruno, his huge St. Bernard. Frank loves to travel and is full of plans for summer excursions. Next year-Purdue, and later he hopes to put those flying lessons to use. KITTY FIXX-Kitty, a newcomer to our class, is truly a talented girl. We hear that she is quite a ten- nis player, and we will re- member her for her terrific stories, art ability, and sunny disposition. Her pep and friendliness, plus talent, will mean success in any future plans which she may have. Zy- .wa 'D I Ta ll -A z -I 3 ..-JV . Y' '-.ff .W f ' ,tix ,ff i 0? if .. , DICK FOWLER-Dick is the only boy who can sleep in English class and get away with it. He is a staunch member of the band and plays a mean trombone. If he-'s not around Oberlin, you'll find him out at the stock car speedway, urging the driv- ers across the line. We'll always remember him for his guitar playing and the bang-up job he did in Our Tou n. PAUL FRY-Paul, a trans- fer student from LaGrange, is a brand new addition to our class, but he made an immediate hit with his attractive personality and handsome appearance. We soon found that he is a rabid basketball enthusiast, and he was the hit of our annual skit when he ap- peared clothed as Mr. Fairchild. Paul has taken a job at Isaly's, and al- ready he has made many fast friends. MARY LOU GEAUMAN - Lou is one of our four peppy cheerleaders, and she showed a natural tal- ent when she danced at the glee club concert last! year. Mary Lou's friend- liness makes her a popular gal, and she is both a senior senate representa- tive and vice-president of Fine Arts. Mary Lou is also a picture editor on our annual staff and is a mem- ber of O-High-Lights. GRETA GETTY - Al- though Greta's favorite pastime is at Hiram, she manages to be an excel- lent Fine Arts president, color guard, and an ac- tive member of her Youth Fellowship. She was one of the first girls to drive, and she likes nothing bet- ter than to call for a few kids and to go on a trip around the countryside. Her ambition is to be a secretary and earn a mil- lion dollars.

JANET HURST- jan, one of the prettiest gals of '52 is always smilin: and helping wherever she can. She's held important of- fices in both the class and G.A.A. What would the G.A.A. hayritle he without the Hurst farzn and janet's willing aid? Wfe know that she will go far with her bubbling personality. JUNE KERN-Junes red hair is always bringing in remarks about temper. She seems to defy the old pro- verb, though, as she is one of the nicest and easiesta to-get-along-with girls in the class. She always has a smile and hello for you, but she gets mad if she is accused of being in love when she isn't. RICHARD KIMMEYN Dick's trademark is his pleasant smile. He's been a faithful sax player in our band and was one of the original members of the Senators Last year Dick could be seen deliv- ering telegrams on his trusty motor-scooter, and this year helps deliver food to college dorms. tQuite a job when you consider the early morning houts.l GLORIA KLERMUND- Glo is one of our old- timers, for she has lived in Oberlin all her life. If Glo is not working in her Dads store, she can usually be found having a coke at the Be-Bo. W'hen she gives out with one of her famous sneers, better watch out-but when she smiles, theres nothing like it. W'hen Glo leaves the old homestead, we know she will be successful. 'W f Ev ff' tal? 'sd MA R T H A LAWALL- Tort is our world trav- eler and star student. tChemistry and physics- wowll Shes renowned for her musical ability and for sticking it out in dance band. The people in cho- ral club have learned to appreciate her almost per- fect pitch, and she will surely make an excellent pitch in the field of med- icine, which is where her I ambition will take her if af' , next.

Un our undefeated hockey team, Pat played goalie. One can always hear her cheering for our teams above the usual din, and her whistle has pierced many an ear. We hope Pat carries out her plan to be at trumpeter for a famous band, or makes a success of any occupation she may choose. NATHAN NASH-Nath an is the agriculturist of the class and is recognized as the senior authority on this subject. His Hallow- een window won lirst prize this year, and his acclaim far exceeded his height. Nathan's smile is one of those contagious ones, and we know that next year at Ohio State he'll be making them smile just as he does here, Good farming, Na- than. MARGARET NEUMANN --Although Maggie has an abundance of nicknames, they do not exceed her pep and enthusiasm. She is noted for her cheerleading and loyal support of the football teams. We alllove to see Mugs blush when- ever she manages to say the tight thing at the wrong time. We're sure she'll make a fine physical education teacher, which is what she plans to be. Mugs is also the vice-president of G.A.A.
