You do not need to talk to Hill very long before you tind where his interest lies. ln fact, it all centers about the XVL-ber liuilding and Athletics. Hill has done some tine Commercial work, but you need never fear that he will become ill from staying in all the time, for he certainly gets his daily exercise walking from NVest lind to school and playing on the basketball floor. Don't let us leave you under the wrong impression, however, for work isn't llill's only interest in the Commer- cial Building for, in fact, several of Room C's fair damsels have taken up part of liill's time. Bill does not know yet what he will do next year. Michael A. Hritz lNlike Commercial Course A.

Wlzat's the hero that iuozzld dare To fight 'gaifzst such cz 11111113 JJ lXlike is known not only because h eis a head taller than most of us, but also because he has distinguished himself both as an athlete and a scholar. He has been able to make that unusual combination, that of keeping a clean record of scholarship and participating in athletics. XTC all remember the Curwensville football game when Mike tore down the field for the winning touchdown, nor can we forget his recita- tions in History or his autobiography in English class. lXlike is going to work next year, perhaps in an oftice or perhaps at manual labor. VVe congratulate hlike's future employer, because he will find, lXlike playing the game of life as we have seen him play for P. H. S., hard and fast. Marion A. Johns Mimi Classical Course Jr. Red cr-OSS, '24, '25, '26, '27, A. A., '25, '26, '27, Jr. civic Club, '24, '26, '27, Glee Club, '24, '27, Dramatics, '27. A camlifl snzile of potent lllC'lllll Ilg. lXIarion is noticeably quiet. .ls her grades and occasional wit show, it is not due to a lack of thought. Nor is it entirely because she is bashful, for she remains peacefully quiet when alone with her friends. On lNIimi's face is an air of calm composure. Sue is alert and in- terested in her surroundings, but not over zealous or over aggressive. Though defined and unwavering in her likes and dislikes, she is never violent nor impassioned. Though always striving to be agreeable, she has that independence that removes her from the clinging vine variety. We wish you success at Indiana Normal, Mimi . .Fl',l'll'I'IL

After her Junior year she decided she did not want to do Commercial VVork so the beginning of this year she started to work for a Classical Course. And small as she is she has survived under Caesar and Latin l and two units of math , all in one year. lXIore power to you, Dot . Dot's other specialty is kindness, for she is always greeting Dora with some sweet name, and bringing Dora's wraps to her. Dot and Dora are certainly close friends, for they are always walking with their arms linked, and what one thinks, so does the other. Indeed it is not unusual to hear l gg g gg them defy the world. Dot expects to go to Temple next year providing Dora goes also George Harrick Yuddy Classical Course lr. Red Cross, '24, '25, '26, '27, A.

XX'hen Yuddy was a little green Freshman, how he hated girls! Now he has grown up and almost likes them. llut, girls, you have missed something. The boys have had all the smiles and jokes and the friendship of Yuddy . llut the queer part about him is that, while he might know all there is to be said about a situation, he keeps his in- formation to himself, not because he is selfish, but rather because he hates to make other people feel uneasy. He will be the fifth Harrick to go to the U. of VV. Ya., where he will undoubtedly be a star, there is no one in P. H. S. who does not wish him success. l H1H'ff1'II Zay Erma Henry Teers Classical Course Jr. Red Cross, '24, '25, '26, '27, A. A., '24, '25, '26, '27, jr.

VVe need not employ a mind-reader to disclose to us what thoughts are rambling through our Zay's mind, for one glance at the expression on her face reveals the secret. Teers , since this be the case, we suggest that you had better refrain from doing naughty things , for we fear that your countenance may tell the tale Zay is the owner of pretty, black, wavy hair, which does not lose its curl when it rains. At least we judge not, for we seldom see her wearing a chapeau. Zay expects to take up Home Economics in some school next year- possibly fate will render the decision-nevertheless we are certain the one who receives her promise true will bo able to survive with her cooking.

THE MIRROR l , Orville A. johns 'row' Iinglish Course -lr. Red Cross, '23, '24, '25, '26, '27, A. A., '23, '24, '25, '26, '27, Com- mercial Club, '27. A pleasant lad of youth ana' promise. Orv is a fellow of jovial disposition. In him there are the pos- sibilities of many great things. He can adapt himself quickly to a situa- tion and is capable of learning things very rapidly. On his shoulders sits a head in which there is a brain of extraordinary receptive ability, but sad to say Orv forgets about it very often and does not use it to his best advantage. Orv has a mechanical eye, especiall for Fords. It is hard to tell what he intends to do next year for he is un- decided about whether he is going to college or work. Paul W. jones Pill English Course A. A., '23, '24, '25, '26, '27, Jr. Red Cross, '23, '24, '25, '26, '27, High School Orchestra, '23, '24, 26, 27, High School Band, '25, '27, Or- chestra I,ibrarian, '27, Football, '26. Gi-z'e me some llI'ZlSl'C',' music mood' food I 4 Of us that trazlv 111 love. One glance at Pill's activities and you can readily see where his interest lies. Pill talks music almost every minute of the day, and we believe he even dreams about it. If you have never especially noticed Pill while he is playing, watch him next time. From the motions he goes through, you would imagine he was getting his music from the floor. Anyhow, he certainly can till the air with music. Pill expects to study law at Pitt, and we are sure he will suc- l ceed if he is as interested in law as he is in music.

Civic Club, '26, '27, Class Secretary, '26, Knave of Hearts , '27, High School Play, '27, If to lzer slzare some female errors fall, Look out lzrr face, and you'll forget tlzcnz all. Her motto seems to be Live to love , to which she probably adds, variety is the spice of life, for her romances have been legion. ,lean'S character strikingly resembles her delightful role, the Queen of Hearts . She has a queenly temper and woe unto hi1n who defies the royal Will. Being temperamental, ardent and energetic in her likes and dislikes, and quite adventuresome, she is attracted by masculine charms, and vice versa. The same characteristics enter into her studies for she is thorough . in those she likes, and tenacious in those she hates. Then, too, these traits make her a charming, spit-fire actress. Our sincere good wishes follow her to the Coolspring school after Indiana Normal. Nixff VII
