Katherine J. Lathrop Robert Donald Murphy University of Michigan Kitty Known by all, liked by all Kitty has been just about tops among the girls of the class of 1940. In addition to maintaining a high degree of scholarship, Katherine has entered whole-heartedly into practic- ally all school activities. The G. A. A., the Chatter Board, the Dramatic Club and the musical groups have all profited by her qualities of leadership and willingness to serve the common cause. Gloria Elizabeth Leonard Traphagen Gl0r Sweetness and sincerity first of all Gloria is the slim girl whose clothes have that certain smartness which only' a born artist can achieve. This talent for dress desiyzninyz she hopes to develop in courses of commer- cial art at the Traphairen Art School in New York. Gloria has taken an active part in all G. A. A. activities and enjoys all sports both in and out of school. Alice Eleanor Lum College Alice To be gentle is the mark of a Lady An unusuully vivacious manner adds charm to this busy senior's many' contacts. Alice is president of her Young' Peo- ples' Orizanization and is very active in its support. As a Fresh- man. she served as class secretary, and during her Senior year has been an able member of the Chatter Board. She has sunii in the Girls' Glee Club and the A Cappella Choir, and last year won a place in the New Jersey All State Chorus. Add to this a general participation in the G. A. A. activities and the main- tenance of a high scholastic standing. Alice's special interests are music, art, and readiml. Dorothy Thelma Major College D0t The surest way not to fail is to determine to succeed If there had been a drawing club at C. H. S., Dot would have been one of its members. There were no if's about the G. A. A. --Dot knows- because she was in it for four years. Yes, drawing and sports have been two of Dot's major interests'--no pun intended. She tried sinking and evidently liked lt. beCal1S9 she has been active in the Glee Club for three years, and A Cappella Choir for two. College Murph Wit is an unexpected explosion of thought Have you seen any' of Murph's clever stories accompanied by sketches in the Chatter '? Bob's quite a wit, and combining this with his artistic ability, he has become a really catchy cartoonist. A Chatter Board worker and a good student, Bob still finds time to work at his hobby, model building. Besides this, he's an ice hockey and horse-back riding enthusiast. Thomas Frederick Murphy New York University Tom The more a man thinks, the less he talks After seeing: his actinir in the last school play we can rest assured that Tom will make at good diplomat. He has a national interest in politics and foreign affairs, as is shown by his col- lection of newspaper articles on foreign happenings. To supple- ment his journal ol' foreign news, Tom collects maps which will clarify the reports. He is developing an ability for meeting statesmen by participating in the activities at Pyramus Hi-Y. His ideal vacation will be a drive from northern Alaska to the extremity of South America. Lucille E. Nordenholt College Ceal From a little spark may burst a mighty flame Ceal is that small, energetic senior who has been an en- thusiastic member ol' many organizations in hiyrh school. For four years she has belonged to the G. A. A.. in which she was team captain during: the hockey season, and secretary-treasurer this year. Besides this, shc has been a member of the Blue Triangle, the Dramatic Club, and the Sub-Deb Club. Gerard John Rau Undecided Jerry Men of few words are the best 'men Jerry is that quiet fellow who can often be found behind the candy stand. Although he did not join any' of the musical or- rzanizations. Jerry does have an interest in listening' to music. He is also interested in coaxing seeds into full-grown plants- - and disoourairinpz weeds from doimr the same. Besides his kar- deniniz. he enjoys swinging a fishing rod.

She has sung with the Glee Club and Chorus throughout high school. Kitty also played in the orchestra for three years. As a member of the G. A. A. she has been especially interested in sports, namely, basketball, baseball and hockey. Kitty, like her sister, Betty, will enter a hospital for nurses' training when she leaves school. Evelyn M. Honickel Business Evie I'll speak in a monstrous little voice Evelyn is looking forward to a business career and has been a helpful member of the office staff. The Chatter has also claimed her time as she has served as secretary. Quiet and friendly, she is an interested class member and a member of the History Committee. Outside of school, Ev belongs to the Young Peoples' group, and in her spare time studies an unusual hobby, advertising. rv Zona Horn New England Conservatory Zona, Those about her from her shall read the perfect ways of honor Who is the busiest girl in C. H. S.'! Zona, of course. She is an accomplished violinist who has played not only in our or- chestra, but also in the Summit Symphony Orchestra for the last three years. This year she plays in the Antonia Brico -Junior Symphony Orchestra in New York as well. Zona has twice represented C. H. S. in the All-State Orchestra, and she took first place in the state violin solo contest for '39, She has been a member of the Glee Club. Chorus, Chatter Board, Library Staff, Advisory Board, and the G. A. A. Yet, believe it or not. she finds time for hobbies on the side! These are art. horseback riding. and cello-playing. Genevieve J acobus Undecided Gene Those move easiest who have learned to dance Have you ever watched professional dancers performing and wished that you were one of them? Gene has done something about that desire, as we of Chatham High can bear witness. Her musical interest has come out in another form: a year well spent in the Glee Club and one in the A Cappella Choir. G. A. A. Of course. Gene was a member during her senior year. Heres something else. There's no need to keep it a secret- who would-Gene has been a member of the Sub-Deb Club. 10 Jeanie Barbara Judd Maryville Bobbie Her step is music, her voice is song Bobbie is one-half of that team, Judd and Burton, which is famous at C. H. S. for its dancing prowess. Barbara has belonged to the Dramatic Club, in which she served on the Make-up Committee, the G. A. A., the Choir, and the Glee Club for the past four years-not to mention her membership in the Sub-Deb Club. This year she has helped to edit This and That column in the Chatter. Robert Kerwin Business Spike He knows what is what rv Spike is another of the Senior boys who had an interest in sports during high school. He went out for several sports and was an enthusiastic member of the soccer team. Behind the counter at Chiefs, Spike has showed his prowess in the high art of soda-jerking. His pleasant smile is also an added lure to prospective customers, and we prophesy his success in all business ventures. Alexander Koukly St. John's College Alex Music is the universal language of mankind Few schools can boast as talented and well-trained a music- ian as Alex Koukly. Alex, as piano soloist for the May music festival in 1939, and as accompanist for the orchestra and Boys' Glee Club sets a high mark of proftticiency for high school pianists. Alex is also a co-partner of one dance band and plays with still another. In sports. he was the winner of the school ping-pong tournament in his Junior year and finalist on another occaion. His other interests are stamp collecting and photo- ZYHD Y- Joan Elizabeth Klocksin Nursing Joan It is a friendly heart that has plenty of friends It has been said that all sport received J0an's attention. Her year as Captain of the Basketball team, her term as Hockey 'Manager, and her four-year membership in the G. A- A. Bilb- stantiate that well founded report. She has serenaded in Glee Club. bandaged the Red Cross. and-served in the Dramatic Club. Since its organization, she has been working on the Hot Dog Committee. We bet that the smell of Hot Franks will remind Joan of her last year here at C. H. S.

He has handled several important parts with the ability of a veteran actor. Besides this, Lloyd has an excellent voice, which won him a place in the All-State Chorus of '38-'39, after which he returned to the music organization at C. H. S. to become Hon- orary-President of the Male Glee Club. A member of the Morristown Choral Society, Lloyd sang in their presentation of Verdi's Requiem. Robert Hugh Rose II Newark College of Engineering Rosie Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm Bob has rendered Very valuable services to the Dramatic Club during his Junior and Senior years. In this organization he was a particularly important member of the stage, carpenter, and electrian's crews. Many tricky innovations can be traced to his fertile ingenuityf Being musically minded as well Bob belonged to the Glee Club and Choir. I-le was President of the Model Railroad Club and a member of the Radio Club. As you can guess, his special interests and hobbies are radio, building intricate models of railroads, photography, and electricity. William John Ryan University of Delaware 'tBi1l A man is not always asleep when his eyes are shxut Bill entered Chatham High in his Senior year. At St. Rose in Belmar, New Jersey, where he previously attended school, Bill was manager of the basketball and football teams. He joined the 4-H Club in Chatham and the Model Building Club. As his rr'e'nbership in this last club indicates, he is an avid model airplane builder. He is also not averse to hunting and salt-water Fishing in the proper seaso-ns. Bill is noted for his wit and his ability to get along with people. . pr DJ' Margaret Scott - Undecided Scotty A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance After being away for several years, Scotty came bacl-L to Chatham to finish high school here as a Senior. Good-natured and cheery, she has made many friends at C. H. S. and has become interested in the Dramatic Club in which she serves on the Make-up Committee. As a member of the G. A. A., Scotty is particularly fond of basketball and baseball. Joseph Thomas Scott Casey Jones School of Aeronautics t'Scottie Leisure is the best of all possessions You can't guess what other hobby competes with ra.dio and model boats for Torn's spare time fairplanes, big and little. It's not just to fool you into thinking that he likes planes that Tom belongs to the Morristown Model Airplane Club and the Kresge Aero Club. He is also a member of the American Stores Bowl- ing League. Perhaps it is because he wants to develop an ear that will tell him when his engine isn't acting quite right, but we'll bet that it's a genuine interest in music that caused Scottie to join the Glee Club. Margaret Ellen Siebert Junior Centenary College Peggy A dark-haired lass is she, and just as merry as any girl could be The Chatham Red Cross has had the good fortune to enlist the interest of Peggy Siebert. She has been a willing worker in its behalf for the past four years and served as president of the school division during her Junior year. This cheery, friendly girl is an ardent horsewoman who has won numerous cups and ribbons in the horse shows of the Watchung Riding and Driving Club. The Blue Triangle, the Dramatic Club. and the all im- portant Hot Dog Committee have had the benefit of her efficient help and peppy personality. William A. Singer Undecided Bill Well-timed silence is more eloquent than speech Whether in school or on the job , Bill remains quiet, good humorcd, and eflicient. He has just the right combination of 'alitie1 for a successful advertising manager, as his work for the Chatter this past year has proved. BiIl's job down town has kept him out of many of the schoolls extra curricular activities, but nothing can balk his determination to know all about cars. Photography is another of Bill's hobbies. 3 . . . a lv . ' ' i li Roever Roper Rose Ryan M. Scott A T. Scott L Seibert g L if Singer . ' B L' .1 A . l tj K lil :fl f f, E J l N ' Vi fl if' v lv I 1.
