GEORGE CORL ANNE COVENEY Anne participates in many of the extra-curricular activities in A. H. S. She is a good Irishman who likes nothing better than a fiery debate. Since she is talented and interested in art and mechanical drawing, we’re sure that she has a great future in store. That hearty laugh booming out of 215 is undoubtedly George’s. A mainstay on the football and basketball teams in the past two years, he still finds time to participate in dramatics. A member of many organizations, George is always on the go, but his ready smile has made him one of the most popular boys in the senior class. ARLENE DUNBAR “Eenie, ” our drummer girl, has snapping brown eyes and a lighthearted way that portray her personality. Arlene is seen at every game whether basketball, football, or baseball, cheering for a certain someone. Those pretty hankies she always carries are her own handiwork. We wish the best to a wonderful girl whom we’ll always remember. GERALDINE DUNBAR Gerry is the other half of the Dunbar “49’s.” A hard-working individual, she is well known for her dramatic ability and active interest in Home Ec. and the Domecon Club. Gerry’s attractiveness, conscientious attitude and congenial manner have made her one popular gal. Best wishes for the future from the senior class, Gerry. 28

MARY LOU COLLINS Mary Lou Is a small-but-mighty member of our class. She is a great friend to us all. Her quick wit, her jovial manner, and her lighthearted spirit will always be helpful assets to her. She plans to attend Temple University to study bacteriology and we are confident that she will meet with great success in her studies. THESP1RNS ROBERT CLARK Notice that big fellow with a sly grin and an unruly lock of hair? That’s Bob Clark, the only four year letter-man of the class. Though sports and pestering Miss Bean seem to be Bob’s favorite hobbies, one frequently sees that black Buick headed toward East Athens. His happy-go-lucky attitude and pleasing disposition make him “one popular guy. DORIS ANNE COOK Versatility, musical talent, energy, vivaciousness, scholarship--all these make up the girl with the charming personality--'‘Cookie.” We shall all remember her superior acting ability and her beautiful voice as well as her twinkling blue eyes. Music is included in post-graduation plans, and Cookie's” determination will prove to be an asset in any chosen vocation. BERNARD COMSTOCK If you notice a flash of bright colors in the hall, chances are that it is Bernard. Any sport is his favorite pastime with basketball and rifle shooting high on his list of favorites. After graduation he plans to trade his flashy clothes for navy blue. A great asset to any class--that is our Bemie. 27

GORDON DUPUIS Gordon, the rather shy and quiet member of our class, is one who will long be remembered for his prodigious amount of gray matter and his intellectual air. His deep set blue eyes give him that look of complete assurance that will add much to his success in the future. P 66KIM Chasers iY SWEATERS THOMAS GORRELL A versatile, ambitious ’49’er, that’s “Maxie.” Tireless editor of our highly successful Athenian, Tom is an all-right Joe, always ready to lend a helping hand. Besides being our promising valedictorian and a fighting Bulldog, he is soon destined to replace Charlie Spivak. A future mechanical engineer, Tom plans to attend Penn State. Valedictorian of 1953? Could be I ROBERT EIFFERT Bob is one of the quiet, more reserved members of our class, but whenever a good time is in sight, he’s a ring leader. It is said that those who drive fastest past a school go through it the slowest, but we all know this does not mean Bob. After graduation he is going to continue farming. BETTY FISK Skating, dancing, piano playing, and horse back riding seem to be favorite pastimes of this attractive, dark haired girl. Besides all these, Betty found time to be on hand for all band activities to carry the Athens Banner. We all wish you the best of luck as you go forth to your secretarial work, Betty. 29
