Helen, the little red head, is admired, cherished, and has been loved by some, especially a certain Junior boy for whom she has shown a deep af- fection. As a worker she is a Curie, always busy, taking part in all school activities, as her achievements show. Helen has been the outstanding stu- dent of our class. But her activities have not been confined to the class Under her able leadership as Kditor-in-chicf. “The Beacon” has become a success. And her efforts have borne fine fruit. Her work with “The Dyne” has also been of a high type. We can never say exactly how much of its success is due to her untiring efforts, but we must never forget what she has done. Red has a great dramatic ability and has carried several lead- ing roles admirably. Her grades indicate that her studies are not being neglected. In En- glish and History she is hard to beat. If she does not know the answer, it is hardly worth while asking any one else. Kverv time she speaks she presents a puzzle. Perhaps this is due to a brace that she wears on her teeth to straighten them. Red is a true friend and a jolly sport. She is ever willing to help some one out of his or her difficulties. - Page twenty-seven

ROBERT MYERS GEESEY North Walnut Street Extended Dallastown, Pa. Business Manager, “The Beacon: Business Manager, “The Dyne;” Ciass Play, 4; Class Treasurer, 4. Boh has not been with us all the years of our High School life, but as long as he has been with us we have found that he is not afraid of work. Bob has proven this by his ability to be a helper at all times. W e can de- pend always on Robert because he is one who will do for you. and give to you. his best. Mis determination carries him through all that he undertakes. In addition to his regular school work, he has attended night school at the York Y. M. C. A. for the last two years, lie is a graduate of the Penn- sylvania State College engineering Kxtcnsion Course in Shop engineering. The fact that Bob completed this difficult three year course in less than two years is absolute proof of his determination, as well as of his efficiency. Whenever we sec Bob. he is either laughing or talking. Sometimes he talks too much and too loud, especially in French class. Bob seems to think that “Girls may come and girls may go. but 1 go on forever. However, we know for “Seeing is believing. When we recall that he has carried the Managership of “The Beacon” anti “The Dyne —Herculean tasks—that he is the official basketball score keeper of 1). II. S. we get an idea of how Bob spends his twenty-four hours. And yet. one look at the twinkle in bis eyes, reveals that life is not a hum- drum commonplace to him. For is lie not the arch-planner of all mischief? Is he not the originator of all hooking-parties? Is he not the champion humorist of 1930? Bob possesses the true “joic de vivre.” Literary Society, 1, 2; Page twenty-six

Paul, better known as “Coonie” to his school mates, spent the carlv part of his life in the city of York. In 1920 he came to Dallastown and in that year he entered our class. W e were very glad to have Coonie with us, for from that time on he has been a great benefit to the class. When he entered High School he was a rather bashful individual, but the call to duty made him forget that trait. At present we would in no way consider Paul bashful. His hobby is addressing a group of boys. We shall not mention what he talks about, but he always finds something to say. W e can tell it is Coonie when we hear that “By Golly.” It matters not where he is. we can always hear him shouting his famous saving. When Paul was asked why he had no baby picture he replied: I grew so fast they didn't have time to take a picture.” There is a twinkle that lies deep in his blue eyes which is a faint indication of the humor in his soul. Without the slightest twich of an eyelid he can spring a joke which sets us almost hys- terical. Speaking of girls Coonie says. “Don't talk to me about the girls. I’m too absorbed in my work. We have never been able to find out of whom he thinks when he gazes into space, which he does quite often. Page twenty-eight
