JOHN COOGAN Jack's individuality makes him stand out in any crowd. VVell endowed physically and so- cially, he puts that special touch of 'fCoogan personalityu into ev- erything that he does. Our best wishes will be in there for him always. ERMA COOPER Kindness and generosity have always been uppermost in Erma's heart. Few indeed are those who did not realize that with her rests the secret of the perfect friendship. We are proud to have been known as her friends. JAMES COOTE f jim is the Hlivest live-wire of the class. What could we ever have done without his jokes or his good-natured ribbing? He has made us smile when we have felt least like it. VVe hope that he will find a way to put his many talents to good use. MAMIE CUCCIA Beneath that deceptively calm and quiet exterior, Mamie con- ceals a very droll sense of humor. When her natural reserve has been pierced, she will delight you with her ready wit and spontane- ity. May her future match her success here! MYRTLE DAVIS One of our leading contenders for the All-American Girl ti- tle, Myrtle has charmed us all with her naturalness and jollity. There were few who could resist her appeals as a cheerleader. May she meet her future with the same vivacityl ZBDK2 .fy 9' I NORMAN DAVIS Norm's very naturalness was always refreshing. He was never too busy to flash us that famous 'fDavis grin, or to cheer us up with some good-natured teasing. VVe want to add, to all the oth- ers, our hopes for his success. ROBERT DAVIS Full of fun and in love with life, Drafty hails from Schuyl- kill Haven. His friendship is true, his loyalty unshakeable, his judgment sound, as proven by the fact that he chose us. SHIRLEY DAVIS Shirley puts such enthusiasm into everything she does that she makes the rest of us look lazy by comparison. Her smiles and hap- py laugh are shared by all alike. VVe wish her a long and merry life, filled with success and hap- piness. VIRGINIA DAVIS Small, but only in size, 'fGin- ny has contributed more than her share to our memories of school. She gave full measure in everything-be it studies or ex- tra-curricular activities. Our rec- ollections of her are fond and lasting. MARY DEAT RICH YVe shall always remember 'fDixie as bubbling over with health and good spirits, never without a smile or a cheery word for all of us. We have saved many happy memories of her.

G. DONALD B RETZ Donny becomes a hermit ev- ery winter. He eats, drinks, and lives basketball. The results are certainly worth it-his spirit and stamina are outstanding. HDon's special brand of enthusiasm marks him in everything he does. CORRINE BURKE A late, but no less valuable, addition to the class-Corrine has insured for herself a large slice of our affections. VVe regret only that we did not have more opportunity to enjoy her friend- ship. HAROLD BUTTS Until you really know UHal,i' you can't appreciate his special brand of humor. Deceptively quiet in the classroom, he makes up for it after school hours by convulsing his friends with his jokes. We have appreciated and welcomed his friendship. ANNA MAE CAMODECA A giggle, a laugh, an infec- tious smile-who could it be but 'iCamey ? She has touched our lives with the sparkle of her laugh and the gaiety of her spir- it. May all her future have that same brand of happiness! GEORGE CA RAVAN George has a many-sided per- sonality-each side funnier and more humorous than the last. One never knows what to expect from him, but, whatever hap- pens, it's bound to amuse us all. VVe wish him luck and success. PHYLLIS CARL f'Phil will add inches to her stature by her continual striving towards perfection. We who have known and enjoyed her friend- ship are convinced that she hasn't for to go. VVe all wish her a speedy journey! JOSEPH CHIMAHOSKY f'Chim's knowledge of theory and practice have put him far ahead in the industrial course. He had everything required at his fingertips plus that extra something that spells success for anyone, but especially for him. ROBERT CLAPPIER All-American 'lBob is one of our decided assets. Whatever he did, was done well-be it on the football field, in T. K. D., or as a class officer. Never content with half a job, he gave his best and did his utmost in everything. RICHARD CLAUSER Dick will always be able to look back on his high school years with pride. He was a credit to everyone-his teachers, his friends, and his school. His repu- tation as a fine student can be beaten by his reputation as an even finer friend. CAROL CONNELLY Beauty, personality, intelli- gence-name it and Carol has it. Her kindness and sympathy go far beyond the bounds of neces- sity. Words about her are inef- fectualg one must really see and know her to be truly apprecia- tive. 0-X422

We wish her all the hap- piness she so richly deserves. JOHN DENAPOLI If you're trying to find De- Nap, just listen for the jolliest chuckle in the school-you're sure to find him somewhere near.

For four years these walls have resounded with her merry laughter. VVe look forward to a long friendship with her. JANET DUNLOP We havenlt seen nearly enough of 'fJan the last few years. Ev- ery time we looked around, she had either moved or changed schools. However, the time she spent with us more than made up for it. JOSEPH DUSEL Joe Indispensable we call him. Mr. Ketner's righthand man, a fine student Cnever misses the honor rollj, a swell friend to everyone, Joe has left more than an impression on us.
