FRANKLIN GREEN Jesse Hi-Y, 2, 3, 4;. Oratorical Contest Winner, 3; Sentinel Staff, 4; Senior Play, 4. Take a cross between Archimedes and Einstein and you have Franklin Green. Erect, dignified, eyes set straight ahead, with his mind dwelling on some complicated formulae, and at the same time arranging facts for some argument, he passes through the present world with views of the future. EDITH GREGSON “Squirt Coudersport H. S., 1, 2; Glee Club, 3, 4; Basketball, 3, Captain, 4; Cheer Leader, 3; Sportsmanship Brotherhood, 3, 4; Athletic Council, 4; Class Treasurer, 4; Sentinel” Staff, 4; Senior Play, 3. “Squirt is another example of that old adage, good things come in small packages. Although she has been with us for only two years, she has shown herself to be one of us; always gay and happy with a smile for everybody. RUTH HUSAK Ruthie” Basketball, 3, 4; Latin Club, 4; Sentinel Staff, 4; Senior Play, 4. Gentlemen prefer blondes, but all blondes don't prefer gentlemen. Ruth is one of those joyous, mirthful types, interested in everybody in general and nobody in particular. Her skill on the basketball court has won praise from all who have seen her play. FLORA JOHNSON Sentinel” Staff, 4; Senior Play Usher, 4. Shy but alert, quiet and studious, are keys to Flora's character. Ask her a question and she always answers, I don't know,” but when it comes to tests or regents, her marks are always among the highest. May the rest of her life be as helpful and industrious as these last years have been. 20

LETHA CRANDALL Toots” Sophomore Play, 2; Fashion Show, 3; ”Sentinel Staff, 4. Letha resides in Little Genesee, goes to school in Bolivar, but her heart is in Oswego. She walks around as if in a trance, but sometimes comes down to earth for a week-end now and then. We can’t guess the reason why! JERALD DeGROFF DeGroff” Freshman Play, 1; Sentinel’' Staff, 4. A good scholar is Jerald—quiet, wasting no words, easygoing yet ambitious. His spare moments are spent in hunting, and his aims are fixed on becoming a dentist. Quite a person, don’t you think? MARY GOFF ■'Goofie” Basketball, 2; Senior Play, 4; Oratorical Contest Winner, 2; Glee Club, 3, 4; Latin Club Censor, 4; Sentinel Staff, 4. Goofie,” contrary to her nickname, is one of the few studious pupils in our school. Suffice it to say that Mary played an even more important part in rehearsals than she did as the maid in the Senior Play. Ask Johnny Sherwood. DONALD GOODR1DGE Don” Class Vice-President, 1, 3; Class President, 4; Basketball, 2, 3, 4; Manager BB, 4; Flt-Y, 1, 2, 3, 4; Sentinel Staff, 4; Track Manager, 4; Senior Play, 4. Cheerfulness, efficiency, sportsmanship, accomplishment—he has them all. And remember, he had a raccoon coat! 19

ARNOLD MILLER Long” Oratorical Contest Winner; Basketball, 4, 5; Track, 4, 5; Sportsmanship Brotherhood, 4, 5; Senior Play, 5. Arnold has made himself popular through his athletic activities. Although Long appears quiet and reserved, we have found that he is as full of fun and pep as anyone else in the student body. OMAH PERKINS Perk Glee Club, 1, 2, 3, 4; Girl Reserves, 2, 3; Treasurer Class, 3 Sentinel” Staff, 4; Secretary Class, 4. Isn't it strange how the old hometown draws you back to it? Look at Omah. She has lived in Bolivar for three years, but we hear that Shinglehouse is exerting the old influence on her. There's a reason! Ask Pattic. Remember her as Julia in the Senior Play? LeROY SEELY • Roy” Track, 3, 4; Hi-Y, 1, 2, 3, Treasurer, 4; Senior Play, 4; Sentinel” Staff, 4, Editor, 3. No school is complete without at least one tease, and Roy” has seen to it that B. H. S. is not lacking in that respect. In his serious moments he has helped to bring the relay team through to many victories, has kept The Sentinel from many a defeat, and has demonstrated his ability to make love on and off the stage. JOSEPH SHANER Joe Hi-Y, 1, 2, 3, 4, Secretary, 3, President, 4; Senior Play, 4; Sentinel Staff, 4; Football, 1, 2; Basketball, 2, 3, 4; Track, 3, 4. What a dread school must be where you don't have a Joe. An actor, a villain, a comedian, or what have you,”—it makes no difference— Joe will take the part of any. His basketball and running have made him one of those well-known individuals in Old B. H. S. 21
