JOHN CHARLES THOMAS. “Tom.” “I heard thee speak me a speech once, and it was acted.” Tom ' ' is a happy-go-lucky fellow who would surely make a hit in vaudeville. He is a sure cure for the blues when he feels well and if he cannot make you laugh until you cry there is something wrong somewhere. He has plenty of sense despite his favorite expression, “Gee, it’s great to be crazy. ” HARRY JOHNSON WHITEMAN. “Whitie.” Latrobe, Pa. O that I had a title good enough to keep his name company.” Gamma Epsilon Literary Society, Associate Editor of Conwayan, Student Senate, Man- ager Track Team, ’09, Prophet of the Senior Class, Business Staff of Logbook. h 1 tie was not one who could enter into athletics, but he was only too glad to do his part on the Logbook and Conwayan Boards. Since he left us we have often missed him and his spirit. He was the friend of everyone and had a heart so large that it filled his whole body. 32

Waynesboro, Pa. CLARENCE MERLE SPANGLER. “Spang.” Your name is great in mouths.” Kappa Delta Pi Fraternity, Reed Literary Society, Basketball Team, ’09. “Spang” is really the cutest thing imaginable. With lovely, Huffy, blond hair and cheeks of the rosiest hue, he cannot help attracting attention from passersby. He plays basketball and sleeps most of the time. Since he does not believe in letting study interfere with sleep, he often sleeps in class, especially in Virgil. We think that these are “beauty sleeps” though he has not told anyone so. GEORGE MORRIS STEESE. Mt. Holly Springs, Pa. “Youth is the bud of manhood.” Reed Literary Society, Sergeant-at-arms of Senior Class. If any of the day students ever get into any mischief, you may be sure George is at the bottom of it. He is a thorn in the side of every professor who tries to keep study hall in order and a tormentor of every fellow who thinks he can study while “doing time” in that respected institution. He is no more than mischievous, however, and though his temper is quick, his heart is large. 31

Harrisburg, Pa. LUTHER ELDEN WICKERSHAM. “Wick.” “O, he’s the courageous captain of compliments.” Kappa Delta Pi Fraternity, Conwayan Board, Vice President of Senior Class, Business Staff of Logbook. “Wick” is, indeed, a “bunch of wit.” He is a good fellow who believes in work when he has work to do and play when he can indulge. His popularity with the gentler sex, pass- eth all understanding,” for it is said that he has at least one girl in every town in Cumber- land Valley. There are some towns in this valley, too. MAUDE ESTELLE WILSON. “Peggy.” New York City. “In maiden meditation, fancy free.” Associate Editor of Conwayan. Last, but by no means least, is the other “little maid,” of the Class of 1909. How can we bear to give her up! Some of us fortunately have the blessed privilege of being Fresh- men with her next year, but alas for the other poor fellows. Like McLane, we “look to her for inspiration.” 33
