PATTY NETTROUR-Patty has a very bright person- ality. There's no doubt about it because her fellow class- mates elected her as the best liked Seni0r girl. Hel' very nature made her an outstanding cheer leader. HERMAN PAPPERT--JOlly Herman could make anyone laugh. He had a variety of interests which ranged from fishing to aviation. No squirrel, rabbit, deer, for catb was safe within a hundred yards of him. VIRGINIA PIERCE-T3kQ another look at the picture and that will describe better than any words the Jinny we knew. Smoothe is an excellent word for her as she is just that in everything she does. ARTHUR PRACK-Avonworth's gift to Cornell is its tall, blonde, handsome son, Art. Due to unfortunate ac- cidents Art missed being a swell athlete, but his was a fighting spirit. 'Great things are expected of you. MARY ANN PRIDE-The last name is very significant in the case of Mary Ann because we all take pride in calling Mary Ann one of our own. To be respected and liked by all is a wonderf'ul accomplishment, and Mary Ann really deserved it. VIOLA ROBERTS-You couldn't find a better combina- tion of brains, pleasantness and wit. If you ever wanted anything done right, Viola could be depended upon under any circumstances. She will be a great loss to the commercial department. MARGARET ROBINSON- Happy really lived up to her nickname. If everyone were as sweet as Margaret, the world would be one big happy family. Her big weakness was making puns. ROBERT ROWE-B0b was renowned about A. H. S. for his many different cars. He and Butch made a quaint couple in the commercial department. Things would have been very dull without them. Bob turned out some fine work in spite of all his mischievous teasing. JOHN RYLANDER-Strong and silent. It must pay to be this Way as Johnnie had friends by the dozens and was respected by all. Will we ever forget his first touchdown in the Neville game? BARBARA SANFORD- Babbie is the exception to the rule. She has brains and beauty too. A typical blonde in appearance but a hard and serious worker. Her worries were mixed-up dates. P. NETTROUR PAPPERT V. PIERCE PRACK M. A. PRICE ROBERTS M. ROBINSON ROWE' J .

D. MCANDREWS MCBRIDE DOROTHY MCANDREWS-l'DOt,, sometimes seems quiet, but she is smart enough to keep her thoughts to herself. No one could ever say a mean thing about Dot. LAURIE llrIC'BRIDEiP0pl1l3Y' Laurie set many a gir1's heart aflutter with his big blue eyes. He liked every- one and showed it. Who can forget his speeches in P. O. D. class, his cheerfulness, and his skill on the basketball fioor? GRACE MCCARREN-Grace in the short time she has been in Avonworth High school has proved a most cap- able girl. Her popularity with the students was shown by her election to the most coveted honor given to a girl-the position of May Queen. Chapel programs clicked under her direction this year. MARY ANN MCCURDY-The name is Irish and to be sure the girl fits the name. Good-natured, likeable, natural are a few adjectives that help describe her. Many Ann would do almost anything on a dare. ALAN MOCUTCHEON- CutCh was a credit to the other side. The stage crew wouldn't have been a stage crew without him. Cutch seemed to prefer brun- ettes-especially those who jitterbugged. MAXINE MOKIMMIE-MSX, with her sparkling eyes and rhythmic feet, was one of the most original seniors. If the decorations at a dance were novel, Max was usually responsible. Maxine never missed any of the dances. BILL MAIER-Our loss will be Pitt's gain. And if Bill continues in college to do and be like he was in Avonworth, he has an easy road to the top. A better Student, a more willing and active worker, a more like- able person than Bill would be hard to End. BETTY MOORE-If you want any work done and done right, call on Betty. Miss Baer will be fortunate to find a secretary to even come close to taking Betty's place. Moe was never serious and believed in calling a spade a spade. HARLAN MOORE-Harlan had more accents than Sin- bad's parrot. For a real philosophy on life consult Har- lan. He will tell you how to eliminate all worries, except girls. Blondes or brunettees seemed to trouble him. BILL MOWVRY-Wl'lt9 a book about Bill and you would still not give an accurate picture of him. One thing is certain thoughg he's an 'falligatorf' In case you don't know, an alligator is a swing enthusiast-a la Artie Shaw. G. NICCARREN A. MCCURDY A. MCCUTCHEON MCKIMMIE W. MAH-:R MOORE H.

MARIAN SAYRE- Sadie's life was just one bunch of notes-musical notes to be specific. She was t0ps on piano and cellog in fact, in most everything she did. Her passionate, anti-New Deal speeches were a 'definite part of the P. O. D. classes. BETTY SCHNEIDER-Talk about blue eyes, she's got 'ernl One of these days someone is going to get a prize Package as a secretary, for Betty is tops in that line, too. JAMES SIMPSON-VV6 liked to kid Jim aboutlhis short haircuts. But you couldn't rile him. Easy-going is his middle name. FRANK SIRIANNI-There's never a 'dull moment when Butch is around! That cheery, carefree attitude made it difficult for anyone to get mad at him, although more than one teacher would have liked to. W-hen he was arguing with Mr. Maize or talking about the Iron Dukes he was in his glory. BILL STEIGERWALD- iStag,' had it and plenty of it. That smile will get him further than anything else. Athletics and Stag are as inseparable as waffles and molasses. ELEANOR STEWART- Onnie was blonde, full of pep and cheerful. If you needed a new supply of gum or candy, Eleanor was a walking confectionery store. Her favorite subject was Jim and home economics. fGet the connectionlj MARGARET STREET-A nice big green car, a swell cheerful girl! You have that in Margaret. Home economics was her favorite subject and her voice added much to the A Capella Choir. HUGH THOMPSON- Hughie had a ear and it had a horn-what a horn! He didn't like to overdo his school- work fhe never didl, but as for fishing and football, he just couldn't work hard enough at it. JIM TURNBULL-Jim and his pipe were inseparable companions, except at dances when the toast of Ems- worth took its place. Jim's another boy who is gifted with what it takes. MONT VAUGHN-4M0Ht has rhythm in his head, his feet, and especially in his fingers. Any night after school you are sure to find him beating out on the piano or the bass, or find him in the lab doing experi- ments. M. SAYRE SCHNEIDER J. SIMPSON SIRIANNI W. STEIGERWALD STEWART M.
