An exploration revealed wonders that make our school unexcelled by any in the country. The general layout of the building is pleasing and the different sec- tions are easily accessible from each other. The Auditorium has a seating capac- ity of one thousand, with all stage facilities and a moving picture booth. Two gymnasiums and a new stadium take care of the physical end of school life, and are complete with locker-rooms and showers. Well arranged classrooms and corridors with all the latest time, heating, and ventilation systems make the building up to date. The new cafeteria, the domestic and manual arts depart- ments, the science rooms, have all been improved and to such an extent that we feel justly proud of our new school.

We will leave behind us all the loyal friends, all the helpful teachers and all the pleasant memories of our schooldays in dear old E. H. S. We have worked, we have played together but we have always striven for one goal— the betterment and honor of E. H. S. Scholastically, our class is a vast success. Its records prove that it far excels any previous graduating classes. Fifteen of its members have attained the honor of joining the National Honor Society. Our famous football team needs no introduction. No one will ever forget the four unde- feated years on the gridiron due to the splendid teamwork of many of our members. The class was equally well repre- sented in basketball and base- ball. Track had its success also. The tennis teams proved their ability as well by winning almost all their games. The debating teams were quite successful and were ably represented by some of our members. The Class of ’26 has the first Student Council in E. H. S. and have tried to carry it on capably. May our efforts be continued by the incoming classes. The trip to Washington was the climax of our year and was greatly enjoyed. The fun we had during high school will never be forgotten, though we have tried to make our fun consistent with the high ideals of our school. And now with the honor of being the first class to graduate from the new E. H. S. we must bid goodbye to the glorious days and never-to-be-forgotten memories of E. H. S. OFFICERS Arthur Edmondson _____ Ralph Hoyt ... Agnes Ramsey ...Frances Garis ... Emma C. Greider Page 17 President ............ Vice-President ....... Treasurer ____________ Secretary------------- Faculty Advisor....... ELIZABETH ANDERSON Girlie Hood College Publicity Club. Press Club. Dramatic Club, Glee Club. Class Basketball '26. Girlie is the original funmaker. She is as full of high spirits and laughter and nonsense as she is of interesting stories, and that's going some. We don't believe that Girlie has missed a dance in years and. as for popularity— well, we leave that to the opposite sex. GRACE ANTHONY GRACIE Senior Play Committee, Dramatic Club. Glee Club. As the daughter of a great dramatic worker, Grace has been rather at a disadvantage. That unusual dramatic sense has been rated as her father's gift, whereas it is really her very own talent. Hers is the cream of her father’s discoveries and good cream always rises. ALICE ASHWORTH AL Alice is quiet, studious, and sincere. But she is not too serious, as her friends all know; she can be as merry and gay as anybody. “Al” has con- quered the Business Course, spurred on by her ambition. If Alice is always earnest and sincere, she is sure to meet success in life. ANNA MAE BARNES Nan Commercial Club, Dramatic Club (2). Rider Business College To her friends. Anna's face is a mirror of her feelings. She is capable of instantly changing her expression from one of joy to that of sadness. Her general mood is pensive, with a sad little smile hovering on her lips—half- timorous. as though afraid to venture any further. But in her especially happy moments she is one of the most clever entertainers one could wish to see. Let us remember her as a good ole fren.” Pane 18 JANET MARJORIE BARNES JAN Press Club. Dramatic Club. Glee Club. Class Basketball, French Club Simmons College Despite the fact that a certain pulpit of the gospel holds weekly a gentle- man closely related to Jan. she assures us that she is a confirmed hedonist, a radical species of pleasure seekers. Eros is her god and John is his prophet. Would that John knew her half so well as Eighth Period. Truly. Jan is a good sport. If she weren't, would we have dared to thus malign her? No. Our very nerve is proof of our regard, and Jan is a good sport. VERNA LILLIAN BATY Toots” Glee Club. Senior Dramatic Club. Lankanau Hospital Verna is also going to be a nurse. With her quietness and gentleness she will certainly be a success. For Verna is quiet and never inflicts herself rudely on others, though we are sure that if she did we would not mind her. as she has a very pleasant disposition. Although she is demure, she really enjoys gymnasium. May you be successful. Nurse” Baty. CLAIRE LOIS BEACH BEACHIE” Dramatic Club. Thrift Club. Commercial Club Savage Claire tells us she is going to be a physical director. Just put that in the Could you Imagine column. Of course, greater miracles than this have been performed and small people often do big things, so that there is still hope. The only difficulty in this plan would arise in trying to differentiate between instructor and scholar. However. Claire has enough pep really to do something in this world, even though it is only to stay small. GLADYS VIOLA BERNHARDT TONY” First Aid Club Where you see Gladys, there shall you find Catherine also. Here we have an example of one of those high-school friendships which has weathered four long years of constant- companionship. Gladys is a jolly, smiling, good- natured soul, so that no one should have difficulty in getting along with her. Page 19 d - I A i a vTl XX1 LX DOROTHY BLACK Dottie” '‘Speed” Treasurer E' Club. Varsity Basketball (3). Home Room Chairman (Soph.). Glee Club, E.” Nurses' Training School, Brooklyn Two big things we know about Dorothy. First, she is a yhiz at basket- ball. Second, her eyes arc wonderfully blue. We have noticed and liked many other things about Dot. We like the way she smiles and the way she backs her school. And. over and above all. docs the dimple in her chin intrigue us. ROSE M. BLACKBURN Rosie” Snooks” Commercial Club. Glee Club. Dramatic Club Rider Business College One glance at this fair maiden tells us that she loves to dance. Let us imagine a spacious ballroom, dim lights, syncopation calling—how can she resist? So. over the wide polished surface her partner leads her in the light fantastic.” Round and round they go—but all good things must end. the music ceases. Have our attempts been in vain or have we painted a picture? ANNA BLUNDIN ANN” First Aid Club. Ann is very quiet and unobtrusive, but likeable withal. She is a patient worker, and will greatly help some office in the capacity of stenographer. She is humane, too. as we can see by reading that she belonged to the First Aid Club. She would never create a rude disturbance in a class, not being of a noisy temperament. MARJORIE BONTZ SIS Dramatic Club. Thrift Club. Marjorie Bontz? Why. of course, we know her. She has been very quiet and unassuming, but her dancing feet have made fame for her. Her name may some day be twinkling in the white lights of old Broadway— unless she chooses another path of helpfulness and friendliness to those less gifted. Page 20 ELIZABETH MARTHA BOUGHER BETTI'” Betty intends to become a stenographer, but with her persistence and quiet application to the work in hand we will expect to hear of her as a promi- nent Secretary. She has the blessed gift of being able to attend to her own business, and of letting others attend to theirs. But she can talk outside of school, and many find her a jolly pal. CATHARINE ANNE BRIGHT KATRINE” Dramatic Club (2). Thrift Club. WEST CHESTER NORMAL Lo! Here comes the walking library .dictionary, history, and encyclo- pedia. combined. Catharine makes us wonder how one head can hold all the names of books, lives of men. historical facts, and the countless other details which she has crammed into it. She is also an authority on books of all descriptions: whenever in doubt, consult Catharine. With a couple more years at Normal, she may be appropriately called a well-informed young lady.” CLAIRE A. BR1NKER Billy” Basketball. Nassau Hospital Here is one of the happiest girls we know. Billy” always wears her best Sunday smile no matter how gloomy the day. Then. too. she loves basketball and always keeps the guards in a state of mental anxiety when she shoots her stuff.” Claire says she is going to be a nurse, but we can’t possibly see how anyone could remain ill with such a cheerful person around. CATHARINE BR WN Kitty” First Aid Club. Treasurer Thrift Club. Brownie is a darling. You’d think so if you could but see her laugh. But never will you discover all that is darling, for as soon as you are sure that you know it all. some new and unexpected quality will pop to the surface—and then you must get acquainted with her all over again. Therein lies the difference between our Kitty and ordinary kitties. I Page 21 JULIA RHEA CASE JULIE” Assembly Committee, Delegate Assembly, Senior Cabinet Operetta. Dramatic Club. Of course Julia has other qualities, nice ones, but most prominent is her sense of humor. She can tell the funniest stories and say the funniest things of most anyone we know. Julia enters into everything with jest, joy- ously. like the good sport she is. S'nough! KATHRYN MAY CLARKE Kitty” Assembly Committee. Dramatic Club (2, 3, and 4). Stroudsburg normal This is Kitty of the sunny smile and sunny nature. Everyone likes Kitty, who seems like a ray of light in our corridors. She was one of the chosen few who helped make our assemblies enjoyable. Kitty is going to follow in pedantic footsteps and will be an instructor in commercial work. When she has imbued hundreds of craniums with her knowledge we hope she won’t forget us. ESTHER I. COPPOCK Rechauffe Staff. Operetta. Behold! one of the professionals of the class. Professional in what? Smiling, of course. We seldom sec Esther in any but a happy mood. She surprised us this year by her work in the operetta as the Duchess. This was a difficult and mature role, but she interpreted the part very capably. Then. too. Esther is an excellent commercial student and is already some- body's secretary. The question which must be troubling her mind is, Prima Donna or Secretary—which? JESSIE MAY CYPHERS JESS” First Aid Club, Thrift Club. Jessie is like a lovely piece of Venetian glass among our common clay pottery. There is something indestructibly lovely about her and yet we do not know her so well as we might and would like to. Her very quietness and the delightfully naive way she speaks make her more precious. Although she has rather hidden herself from us. we have found her out. Jessie Cyphers is not Jessie Cyhers—she is our Cinderella. Page 22 MYRTLE L. DENEE MERT’ Glee Club. Thrift Club. Class Basketball. Who is that girl who is always bubbling over with mirth and giggles? Why, that’s ‘‘Mert.’’ to be sure. We often sec her in the halls asking if anyone has seen Elsie. Myrtle has a host of friends and always will, with her winning ways. But do not think that she has no steadfast qualities, for here is a girl who has not neglected her studies during her four years with us. DOLLY DERR Travel Club. Nurses’ Training school Dolly is the black-haired lass who has a cheerful smile and a pleasant word for everyone. She possesses the enviable gift of an equable disposition, and if a jolly classroom neighbor, as her associates can vouch. Her even temper will aid her in becoming a delightful nurse. MARY DE THOMAS ’’MAY’ Thrift Club. Dramatic Club. First Aid Club. Jefferson Hospital Mary—the friend of thimbles, thermometers and typewriters—symbols of three great cults to which she adds herself. It is a question as to which two she will be able to eliminate in order to truly excel in the third. We cannot help. We cannot even suggest. We will, however, wish her good luck in this her hardest task. FRANCES CLAIR DIAMOND ”TOPSY” Thrift Club. Philadelphia Academy of Fine Arts Frances is noted for several distinct things: First (and very important), her clothes. Frances has the happy faculty of wearing pretty clothes well. Second, her hair. Third, her bright brown eyes. Frances expects to enter the Philadelphia Academy of Fine Arts. We wish her luck in her new venture. J CKaj -29, BERTHA L. DIEHL “TUT PEGGY Commercial Club. Basketry Club. Dramatic Club CHURCHMAN'S BUSINESS COLLEGE Here is one of the typewriting sharks of the Commercial Department. Bertha has won enough pins to deck herself like Napoleon, but she is so modest she wears only one at a time. She is also an expert accountant and she has chosen this field for her work. However, it makes little difference which one she attempts—juggling figures or typewriter keys—she is adept at both and success is hers in either ease. HANNA FLORENCE DOLL Honey Glee Club. Dramatic Club. Commercial Club. Cheerleaders’ Club Churchman’s Business College Could you find a more appropriate name for this little maid than “Doll”? And what could be sweeter than “Honey ? She’s merry and gay. too. Hanna has been an earnest student and will make a perfect little business lady for somebody. Honey has the ability to make real friends. ELLEN CAROLYN EICHLIN TOMMY E. H. S. A.. Dramatic Club. Glee Club. Class Basketball. Cheerleaders’ Club. BUSINESS COLLEGE Tommy” is as full of pep and fun as any girl in school. Her person- ality can be compared to a fresh spring breeze, invigorating and cool, with the coolness of green grass and silver brooks. We could weave a poem about those eyes by whose charm we have become captivated. Masculinity cannot meet her gaze unconqucrcd. She cannot help making a success of whatever she does after graduation, we know. MILDRED ERB Midge Assistant Manager Basketball, E” Club. Cheerleader. Dramatic Club. Cheer- leaders’ Club. E. Midge” is so tiny. but. of course, she's mighty. “Midge” is always bobbing up and down before us. trying to make us yell a little louder (oh. ves—she’s a cheerleader). She succeeds, too. for she’s such a peppy little person. Midge” has quite some dramatic ability, too. and is very fond of this work. We’re sure she’ll be a gloom-dispenser wherever sfie goes. Page 2 , ELEANOR FAIRER Dramatic Club, Glee Club. CEDAR CREST We like Eleanor, why, we don't know, but somehow her generosity, that unaffected grace of manner, gets us. There is an unusual charm in her bearing, rather more mature than one finds in ordinary girls. And though she has been very quiet, many of us have discovered her sweetness and arc her friends for all time. She is never disappointing. Once having made her reputation for friendliness, she has kept it and elevated it. And we all know how well she has succeeded. SOPHIA FISCHER Dramatic Club. National Honor Society. BARNARD COLLEGE We feel a little shy about this write-up. We have a feeling—a presenti- ment—that Sophia will read it and laugh. Not with malice, you under- stand. Sophia never laughs with malice—but with understanding. Sophia looks at us with double eyes—eyes that see the surface and eyes that pierce beneath it. She has a keen perception of all the finer things; sometimes her grasp of things astonishes us—Emerson, for example. But. then—Sophia is an excellent student, and excellent students . . . . ! GERTRUDE ANNA FREEMAN JERRY” Glee Club. Dramatic Club. Orchestra. Commercial Club. Thrift Club. Stroudsburg Normal You can see by her list of activities that Jerry is a lively girl. She is one of those who works hard for her school, and she has become known to us by her never-faltering good nature. She has kept up in her scholastic work as well as in social events. Everyone knows Gertrude at least by name. MARGARET A. FULMER •PEGGY' Commercial Club. Dramatic Club. Here's a black-haired lass who looks quiet, but. oh. my! Margaret loves to talk and has a cheery smile for everybody. She loves to dance, too. and is well liked. Margaret is fond of designing, and is desirous of making that her profession. We arc sure she will make a success of anything she may do. Page 25 FRIEDA FUNK Fritzie Glee Club, Assistant Business Manager Senior Play. Senior Cabinet, Varsity Debating, National Honor Society, “E.” Frieda is another of our all-around girls. As a commercial student she is top-notch, about the best that Easton High could ever turn out. As a debater she ranks with the best college prep students—a situation rather unique but successful. And as for other activities—we can't enumerate them all. CECELIA GALLAGHER Celee” C” RECHAUFFE Staff, Treasurer Thrift Club, Dramatic Club, Commercial Club. Rider’s Business College Cecelia takes the prize for being the tiniest mite in our class. Her motto must be “quality not quantity.” She knows more than you would believe that little head could hold, for she’s one of our very best commercial stu- dents. We are sure she will be as successful in life as she was in high school. GLADYS VIOLA GARDNER Glad” Dramatic Club There is a little town eight miles north of Easton, situated on the banks of the Delaware River, and each year it sends to Easton High some of its students. This town is Martin's Creek, and Gladys is one of the representa- tives this year. While she has not become as intimate with us as we would like, still we feel we know her sufficiently to say that she is a girl anyone could cherish as a friend. And that’s saying quite a bit! FRANCES ARLEYNE GARIS “Fran” France” Secretary National Honor Society. Manager Tennis Team. Assistant Editor RECHAUFFE, Secretary Senior Class. Class Basketball. West Chester Normal Fran was made, we emphatically declare, to laugh and dance her way through life. She does laugh and dance—and yet she's Secretary of the National Honor Society! Her ambition is to become a Latin teacher. She is a shark at Latin and we fear will rival Virgil himself some day. She is very fond of football, too. Page 26 DOROTHY GEBHARDT Geppie “Dot Senior Play. Secretary and Treasurer E. H. S. A.. Captain Varsity Basket- ball (3), RECHAUFFE Staff. Executive Committee. E.” Dot is a sport and a consistent success. The fact that she excels in every- thing for which she goes out. and that she goes out for everything, is proof enough for this statement. She cheers divinely, jumps center like the para- gon she is. and can cry That’s a fallacy in Miss Cline's English Class with the best of them. And as for brains and beauty, she is an eternal revocation of Oscar Wilde’s famed theory that women cannot be both good-looking and intelligent. JEANNE GOLDSMITH Babe” Glee Club. Commercial Club. highland Manor The first thing that we notice about Jeanne is her eyes. And pleased with what we see, we notice that she is altogether lovely and charming. She has a fascinating way of just being herself, and consequently becomes even more attractive. We do not wonder that she has hosts of friends. JEANNE GROSS Jeannie” Junto Staff. President French Club. Dramatic Club. Class Basketball. National Honor Society. Syracuse University We enjoy Jeanne immensely, and although her poise is absolute, yet are her wise cracks greeted with adoring titters—which is more than we can say for most wise ones. That supreme expression of disgust on her features we all know. She has the clearest brain and the readiest tongue in the world. And as for appreciation—well, an argumentative male and Rolyn agree for once. EVELYN HAGMAN Evvie” Glucc Club. Art school ‘‘Evvie’’ loves to draw, and expects to enter an Art School. But she can draw a bow as well and is a violinist of considerable merit. Evelyn also plays the piano and just loves to dance and dance. Modesty is an admir- able quality, and Evelyn has an abundance of it. She has been successful in all her undertakings and here’s success in the future! Page 27 OLIVE M. B. HELD Glee Club. Orchestra. Olive is another one of those who loves music. She is quite an artist on the piano and flute and we’re sure she will win fame some day through them. Olive is a good sport from the top of her head to the soles of her feet, and somehow we all like to sit next to her in class. MAE BELLE HELL1CK “MAIZIE Glee Club. Dramatic Club. Class Basketball. PENN STATE Mac's friends can vouch for it that she is likeable, especially when you know her well. She is the sort of girl who helps form a solid background for the class. She is faithful to all school activities, and having developed a taste for basketball, she has unfalteringly spent hours at class practice. A good sport and good friend is Mac. RUTH HELM Commercial Club. First Aid Club. Churchman s business College From that wilderness called Cedarville. farther even than the Styx, comes a dimpled, blonde little girl called Ruth. Between the distance to school, and the mud which is truly remarkable in its consistency, Ruth has had what the poets call a tough time in getting to school, but nevertheless she did get there for four years. Always happy and smiling. Ruth is one of the students whose jest brings a smile and whose jokes have helped to make our halls gay with laughter. MARY LOUISE HESTER Junto, French Club. Thrift Club, Dramatic Club. Hood College Here comes the girl of a million charms, the heroine of our play, the lovely ladv of our dreams, one of the most sought for. gladly met girls in the school—we might almost say. on the campus, or shall we call it merely the school yard? She was last year’s chemistry paragon and made all those lesser despair of perfection. She is this year's Violet, a heroine of our Senior Play. Page 28 EDYTHE MARY HOADLEY Edie Brick Junto Staff. Basketball, Thrift Club. Glee Club. Commercial Club. E.” Here’s a girl who is just full of life and fun. She has lots of pep at basketball and makes a star forward. Edythc has been a successful student, especially along commercial lines, and is a speedy typist. Due to her agree- able. fun-loving personality, she has made many friends and is very popular. MARGARET HUPPMAN PEG RECHAUFFE Staff. Debating. Senior Play. Class Basketball. French Club. Cornell % You hardly know what to do about Peg. There is so much to tell and so little space to tell it in. We know her best as Cora. Fluffy. Kittenish Cora, a true blonde-haired, blue-eyed, adorable youngster. But there is ever so much more of knowcldgc and worth behind that pretty face. There is much Latin and French and Math, and more of just plain intelligence. It is hard to realize it. but she is a perfectly balanced creation of all that is lovely and good. MABEL JAFFEE Nibs” Mabs” Class Basketball. Commercial Club. Thrift Club. Dramatic Club. Glee Club. Mabel is a calm, pleasant person, and a sensible talked. She has many friends and also many admirers. For she pours forth many stories and poetic gems and always has something interesting up her sleeve. Although she is of minute stature, she has spent many afternoons at class basketball practice. RUTH T. JOHNSTON Class Basketball. Glee Club. Mercy Hospital We arc convinced that Ruth is a born musician. She can get off Bach and Greig so easily and with such a touch of quality, yet she can make us forget everything when she strikes up jazz. Ruth has no little fame outside of our school already, and we arc sure the future has much in store for her. Page 29 HAZEL MAY JONES Hey' Dramatic Club. Publicity Club, Glee Club TEMPLE We never knew till a short time ago that among Hazel's accomplishments was a weird proficiency in Math. Perhaps her hair blinded us. We are apt to think that Hazel is made up chiefly of lovely tresses and a pleasant tongue. But there is much more of jollity and sympathy in Hazel the indi- vidual than all the golden lights in her lovely locks. ROSLYN KABATCHNICK '•ROS Vice-President National Honor Society, Assistant Manager and Manager Basketball, Class Basketball. Dramatic Club, French Club. CORNELL UNIVERSITY Just look at that list of offices and activities and you'll realize how impor- tant Ros is. The girls’ basketball team actually declares it likes to be man- aged when Ros holds the reins. Helen Wills better look to her title. MILDRED KAUFFMAN Dramatic Club. Glee Club. RECHAUFFE Staff. Academy Fine arts A large orange smock flecked with the colors of many finished dreams wears Mildred. And her stylish little shoulders uplift as she discards another idea for her impending design. It is fascinating business playing this game of color and light, and Mildred is winning, has won. How many more smocks, even more thickly spread with the sprinkles of many paint boxes will she wear at school? LOIS WANTZ KEIPER “IMP” “LODA B.” Dramatic Club. Glee Club. Operetta. When the Graces gave to each his special talent, they endowed Lois with an unusual ability for dancing. And she has developed her gift to the full extent of her powers. This year her solo dances in the Operetta were greatly appreciated. But Lois is not only a graceful dancer, but a good student and friend as well. Page 30 MARION L. KEIPER Dramatic Club. Orchestra (1), Glee Club. Marion is one of our musical members. For proof of this statement we have but to think of her orchestral and vocal activities. It has become quite common for us to write of our victim's smiles, but we must say that we know Marion by. if not for. her smile. She always wears a happy expres- sion .and we cannot imagine her cross and disagreeable. ELIZABETH KELLER Speed'' Class Basketball. Dramatic Club. Betty is always in a good humor. Whenever there’s a good time to be had or any jokes to be told Speed is right there. But fun has not been Betty's only aim in high school, for she has succeeded in her lessons and is one of the eleven members of the famous Virgil Class. Speed played a good game on the class basketball team and entered whole-heartedly into every school activity. FLORENCE L. KIEFFER Florence is one girl who loves to talk and laugh and chatter. A strange characteristic? We think so. Then. too. she delights in supporting the negative side of any question, not so much because she is opposed to the measure but simply to exercise her argumentative powers. But the world is in need of great orators, so Florence will find a broad field to try to sub- jugate. FRANCES EVELYN KIRKPATRICK Fritz” Glee Club. Operetta. Junio Staff. Boston secretarial school Here's good old Fritz as happy as ever. You know-one of those girls yoti can't help liking. She is always smiling or going to die laugh- ing or something of the sort. Frances is a nimble-fingered typist and thru her ability to do this work so wcl, she was appointed Junto typist. This meant hours of work after school, but she did it cheerfully and seemed to have fun in doing so. That's the kind we admire—one who seeks fun instead of glory. Page 31 RUTH ARLENE K1ST “Kistie Commercial Club. Dramatic Club. Boston Secretarial school Kistie has a captivating smile which has made hosts of friends for her. She is rather a quiet mouse around school, but she loves to dance and be merry, too. Ruth actually enjoys shorthand, and is going to make a valu- able secretary for some business man. ELIZABETH M. KOHL BETTY Commercial Club. Blue eyes, white teeth, smiling mouth, golden hair—that is a brief word picture of Betty. However, we arc not the only ones to find her attractive. Many of us are surprised to realize how many interesting people there arc in our class whom we did not previously appreciate. Her friends have always liked Betty and we who did not know her are pleased to find her charming, too. MARIE E. KREBS Senior Dramatic Club. PENN STATE Marie seemed quiet in school, but not so quiet that she refrained from showing her interest in Dramatics. She was a faithful supporter of school activities, and she is the kind of girl who helps along everything with which she is connected. Lucky the pupils she will teach in the future. GLADYS MAE KUGLER Glad Commercial Club. Gladys is another fine commercial student who never gives her teacher any trouble. But those of us who know her better can detect a world of mischief behind that charming, demure smile. However, while Gladys is always in for a little sport, she possesses the rare quality of knowing when to stop. She is steady and conscientious in her work and we arc certain that will attain marked success in whatever field she ventures. Page $2 GORDENA LARUE Senior Basketball. Thrift Club. DEENY This is our Deeny.” our lovable classmate, and fun-making neighbor. We can take oath that we have never seen her out of sorts, and we have come to look for her smile as for something precious. We all like Deeny.” and we want to continue our friendship with her. RUTH LAUBACH Rusty Orchestra (2). Dramatic Club. Glee Club. French Club, Senior Basketball. Rusty” reminds us.—oh. horrible simile!—of a bit of gunpowder. You think gunpowder is quiet—but try a match on it. But in some cases, to continue our simile, we like gunpowder. And Rusty's it. She is a dandy girl and has plenty of fine qualities. HELEN L1PSCHITZ Dramatic Club, Senior Basketball Cornell Helen is just naturally a sweet child and a good student, but what impresses us most is her knowledge of German. However, not content with that, she has conquered the field of English to the extent that we believe we may look forward to future literary work. She is a fine all-around girl, and Cornell should make her ready to be a force in the world. MILDRED KATHRYN MACDONALD MlLLY Glee Club. Class Basketball. Thrift Club, Operetta Practical Bible School. New York Mildred's chosen vocation is a trifle different from those of most of us. She is going to be a missionary. And we were so sure she would be a poetess or a short-story writer! She has charmed us so often under her magic flow of words, that we are really disappointed to hear she has differ- ent intentions. Good luck, anyway. Milly! Pape S3 EVELYN MACK Dramatic Club. Evelyn we know as a shy young girl with a sweet smile. We could say a lot of nice things about her. and Evelyn's just as nice as she sounds. For arc not a pleasant manner and kindly heart likeable qualities? And these characteristics mean Evelyn. ANNA MALEY '’ANN” Junto, RECHAUFFE, Dramatic Club. Publicity Club. Trinity College If brains make geniuses. Ann is a genius. If looks make beauties, Ann is a beauty. If obediently clever brushes make artists. Ann is a great artist or will be after a few more years of training. Hers is a complex to be different, and she is intoxicatingly different. Clever Ann! VIOLET MASTERS vr Class Basketball. Dramatic Club. Thrift Club. What name more fitting than Violet? It is so expressive of modesty, and sweetness, and niceness, as is “Vi” herself. And is not a Violet a lovely thing? As a classmate. “Vi” is most pleasant, and as a friend most charm- ing. We cannot wih her better than to continue as she is. FRANCES A. MATTHEWS “Fanny” “Fran” “Shrimp” Dramatic Club. Commercial Club, Thrift Club. Here we have one of the small girls of the class: yes. small in stature, but not so small in deeds. You should hear her argue on certain economic points; her side usually wins. Fanny is well liked by everyone, and you can always tell when she is near you, for she has a very famous giggle which we all enjov hearing. rage 3U CLAIRE I. MAUL A wcc small voice is heard and a bashful blushing maid appears. Claire evidently believes in the famous maxim. “Silence is Wisdom. Claire is well worth being heard, and we would like to turn phrenologist for just a minute to see if she won't surprise us some day by speaking and letting us get a peer into her store of knowledge. ANITA MILLER Dramatic Club. Freeh Club Moravian College Behold Anita, our mathematical genius, who has swallowed more X's than most of us have dared to look at. Should her brain be examined, we know that it would show a form of either an x or y, or some other famous unknown quantity. Despite the fact that she has tackled College Algebra. Anita is quite human, and everyone genuinely likes her. MARY MONDEAUX “MOLLY” Dramatic Club. Stroudsburg Normal Although Molly has only been among us for less than two years, yet we have all earned to love her. Her pleasing smile and sweet disposition have taught us to appreciate her as a friend. Mary is always gay and is fond of dancing and breezing her way through life, making hosts of friends wher- ever she goes. JEANETTE ALLISON MOORE JANNY” “JEAN” Commercial Club. Glee Club (4). Howard university Jeanette is certainly as ambitious as some, and more so than many, for she intends to become a teacher. And she's going to specialize in Spanish which she greatly enjoys as well as English. In the future, we will see her teaching the Spanish cuqivalcnt of “Do you speak --------?” to rows of eager (?) students. Her good nature is one of her most pleasing charac- teristics. A Page 35 GRACE MOSER Gracie” Glee Club. Dramatic Club. Here is a young maiden who has so far not been conquered by the “bob fashion, as she still has her charming little curls. Stick to them, Grace. Grace has acquired many friends in school through her pleasant ways, and we arc sure she will continue doing so in the future. She is an all-around good sport, her two hobbies being basketball and dancing. HELEN MULLER “ANGEL NUT Cheerleader. Cheerleaders' Club. Glee Club. E” Club. Commercial Club. E. SARGENT COLLEGE Sometimes called Devil” and other times Angel.” we do not know exactly just what character to depict here, but of one thing we arc certain, she is what everybody can describe as a mighty good sport.” When not extracting cheers from her classmates in her role as cheerleader, she can be found any time the center of a vivacious, laughing group, for where there is mirth there is Helen, and where there is mischief there also is Helen, and perhaps here is the explanation of her two opposite appellations. ELIZABETH S. MUTCHLER Betty” Mutch” Glee Club. Commercial Club. Botany Club. Orchestra (1). Sargent College Betty is another of our live wires. She is full of high electrical sparks snapping from her (especially from her hair). For Betty is blessed with a much envied shade of hair. She is very fond of athletics and can play a fast game of basketball. After she has finished her education, she intends to brighten some dull office with' her gay presence. HOPE M. MUTCHLER Dramatic Club. Thrift Club. Hope is a unique character, and if you want some Bible information go to her: she is sure to help you out. Hope really loves to study the Bible, and has whispered in secret that she would even give up her beloved music (she is quite a well known cornctist) for it. She has endeared herself to our hearts by her honest, frank simplicity. Page 36 RUTH NANGEL Press Club. Glee Clyb. Dramatic Club. Art Club. When we were Prcshmcn we used to look at Ruth and wonder, wonder how anyone could be so dainty, so immaculately stylish and yet so quiet and so lady-like? But now that we arc Seniors we know that it is a case of her being supremely herself. And when she is a nurse, loving Spanish as she does, we can imagine her murmuring. El pobre de Pepe to some sick blessed Spanish foe. That’s the life for Ruth. MARY ELIZABETH NICHOLAS Mary Liz” Dramatic Club. French Club, Senior Play. CURREY SCHOOL OF ORATORY AND ELOCUTION We have never found a merrier imp than Mary Liz. If you hear a funny little giggle and see a laughing crowd, surmise that Mary Liz is up to a new antic. Surely this creature was born under a lucky star. If you have never heard her make every one of Mrs. Rugglcs’ children laugh and cry and scrap, you have missed something. And as Mrs. Wheeler in the Senior Play she showed true dramatic ability. EMMA MAY ODENWELDER Junior Reporter Freshman. Moravian You are now looking at one of the phenomena of our class. We believe that under that intellectual brow reposes a “Dictionary of Words, Usual and Rare, Mostly Rare.” that would make a Webster turn uneasily in his grave, and a responsive and receptive mind that would make a Slosson rival a shamrock in color. Emma has completed the four-year course in three, and has learned everything her teachers have even breathed. VIOLA CATHERINE PAGLIARO ”VI” Beaver college Here’s one of the girls who has travelled a la Ford from Ricgelsville to Easton High for the past three years. Viola is chauffeur and mechanic com- bined and is very capable of holding the position. During these daily trips she finds time enough to stay at the high school for some education before returning again to “the little town down the river.” She has made many friends here. rv fe, ■' I Page 87 HELEN ANNA PAINTER “Hon Glee Club. Helen is a girl who can smile thru most anything. We have never seen her out of sorts and. in fact, we doubt that she ever gets cross. She takes things as thev come and makes the best of them. We almost envy her that spirit which she possesses. It will prove a great asset to her when she enters the business world, for everyone prefers a smile to a scowl. JEWELLES PINSKEY “PlNSK Secretary Press Club. Debating. Junto, Dramatic Club. Glee Club. New York University Sounds of conversation proceeding from a secluded section of the room: be calm, gentlemen, it’s only Jewclles in an argument again. Jcwelles is a born debater, is also an all-around good sport, and possesses a fine busi- ness head. HARRIET RACHEL POWELL “RAE Class Basketball. Dramatic Club. DREXEL INSTITUTE Harriet is a very cheering sort of person. Her very presence is comfort- ing, and she is a good sport in any crowd. If she has any enemies, they have never made themselves known, whereas her friends arc numerous. She has made a good record in school, and has successfully taken a hard course in German. We wish her happiness in her study of home economics. CAROLYN MARY PRICE Carol” “Cappy” French Club. Senior Class Basketball. RECHAUFFE Staff. Junto Staff, Senior Play Committee. WELLESLEY Meet our literary genius. When Carol goes off into a “heliotrope’ atmosphere one naturally drifts along and forgets about the rest of the world. “Cappy” has already gained national fame as one of the ten leading high school poets. She not only brought honor to herself, but to her Alma Mater. Writing isn’t her only talent—she likes to paint, and is a good student, and she has the enviable ability to be herself. Page 88 MILDRED D. RADER “MlBS” Dr.im.itic Club. Commercial Club. Another budding young typist and accountant—that’s Mildred. She belongs to the elite group in both studies. She surely can “tickle the keys” when she and a typewriter come in contact with one another. Besides her studies. Mildred loves dancing and gymnasium work and she has become ouitc an acrobat in the latter. We wouldn't be surprised if she joined a circus some day. AGNES CLAIRE RAMSEY • “CLY Sophomore Treasurer. Senior Treasurer, Senior Cabinet, Class Basketball. Dramatic Club. Millersville State Normal Here we have a seemingly unassuming young lady. But. hold! Agnes would not accept such a role in school life. While she says little, she docs much. She must be very trustworthy because she has been Class Treasurer for two years—a very responsible position, you know. As a lover of action. Agnes finds plenty of fun in a stiff game of basketball, revealing “the true felicity of the heart.” LILLIAN REIBMAN “Sis” Varsity Basketball (1). Commercial Club. “E.” Sargent College Lillian likes lots of action in everything in which she takes part. She especially enjoys basketball, gymnasium work and dancing—all three of which afford plenty of exercise. She proved herself a steady, consistent basketball player on this season's team and deserves a chance at a physical education at Sargent. DOROTHY M. REUSS “Dot” Glee Club (1), Thrift Club. “I shall raise my right hand and swear never to do anything of which my instructors would not approve.” This seems to typify Dorothy's atti- tude toward deportment in school. She is rather shy and doesn't believe in wasting her energy on uttering useless words. It's a happy thought, but— oh. think of all the wonderful “articulatory exercise” she is missing. Pa ye 39 PEARL E. RICE Glee Club, Secretary Friendship Club. Pearl is the Elsie Dinsmorc of our class and she just won’t grow up. She is one of the few with long hair. Pearl is fond of painting and often burns the midnight oil to finish a piece of work. She always is prepared for her lessons and we are sure she never peeped over her neighbor's shoul- ders for a suggestion. IDA SCHNITZER National Honor Society, Glee Club (2). French Club (2), Thrift Club. EAST STROUDSBURG NORMAL Ida is one of those girls who woul hide her light under a bushel, if we’d let her. Certainly, no Latin nor French student would. Ida is one of those extraordinary Latin students who possesses an uncanny skill for remembering verbs, regular, irregular and otherwise. Besides all this, she has a nice sense of humor; what else would you wish? ELEANOR ALICE SCHRANK “SLIM GIANT” Junto Staff, Dramatic Club. Basketry Club. Millersville State Normal Eleanor more or less hides her light under a bushel basket. At least, she does not spread her work abroad, and we know that she writes poetry and short stories. But don’t get the impression that she’s quiet—oh. no! Her contagious laugh is famous. Schrankic likes dramatic work, and we all enjoyed one of her plays in assembly. Just think—“Eleanor Schrank, Playwright.” ALMA SCOTT “AL Editor-in-Chief RECHAUFFE, Senior Cabinet. Vice-President French Club, Home Room Delegate (3), Dramatic Club. It took Alma three years to get used to us—but now that she is, we flatter ourselves that she likes us. At any rate, we return the compliment. We admit she is different from us. There is something characteristic in her Southern voice (which we have polluted) and her clean-cut wit which one must recognize as individual. Yes. like Emerson, we sigh to say, “Alma is individual. ELEANOR SOLELIAC SEIBERT Literary Club. Senior Play Committee National Park seminary No one can go through four years of school with Eleanor without finally knowing her and her middle name. She has a unique personality which invariably makes itself felt. A strong strain of initiative and bravery runs through her character—consider the boyish bob. She has numerous friends, and we expect to hear of her after her course at school. FRANCES L. SHADE PETE Basketry Club. Behold the quiet little mouse! Frances seems so shy and timid that one would hardly believe she possessed the power of speech. Of one thing we're sure—she never was given an eight period for talking. But if one is clever enough to induce her to talk he will find her a charming little maid. Frances evidently agrees with the old maxim. Talk much—say little.” MARGARET L. SHANEBERGER MOT PEG” Commercial Club. Glee Club. Dramatic Club, and Thrift Club. Dr. Pierce's School, Philadelphia Always worrying about school work. Poor girl, she’ll grow thin if she doesn't soon stop it. But. seriously speaking. Margaret really is a conscien- tious worker, even tho she is so full of merriment, and we feel sure that some day she'll be a private secretary for somebody. Peg has a host of friends in school, all of whom she has won by her jolly good nature. MARGARET SHIMER PEG Basketball. Glee Club. Senior Play. Basketry Club. Press Club. Good morning. Mr. Wheeler!” that ersip. even voice, business-like, per- fect! That’s one side of Margaret. The other side is Peg. the side most of us know, typified by hair that won’t stay in place, giggly brown eyes, and a voice that bubbles. Because of this side she has won the regard of her classmates and because of the other, that of her teachers. Pretty good teamwork—eh? Page 41 KATHERINE MAY SHORT KlTTlE” Orchestra (1), Glee Club (1), Dramatic Club (4). Hie your imaginations ten years hence and visualize Kittic diligently working in her Paris shoppe. She says she is going to be a fashion designer, so. girls, just think of wearing Short-made” dresses! However, we thought Kittie would be an artist or a famous dancer. Her smile surely would change the expression of any uninteresting subject because its charms are irresistible. We eagerly await the day when Kittic shall join the ranks of the celebrities. MINNA SHULMAN Min Billy Glee Club (4). Dramatic Club (2), French Club, and Thrift Club. PENN STATE Minna is one of the nicest girls we know. She is always so steady, so fine, so easy-going, so thoroughly a good sport. Minna is an excellent musician and hopes to find a niche in the music world. She hopes to find it: we know she will find it. Good luck. Minna! BLANCHE SMITH Curly Smitty Glee Club, French Club. Dramatic Club. Thrift Club, Operetta Blanche is one of the songbirds of our class—golden-haired, golden- voiced. As a result of her ability and love of singing, she had a prominent part in our operetta. She has pleased many in this line, which she hopes to follow in later life. Her curls have been the object of the longing gaze of many a marcelled lass and her pleasant disposition has won her many friends. DOROTHY SNYDER Glee Club. Here you see one of the few girls of our class who has somehow man- aged to keep her crop of curls. Hang on to them, Dorothy! Underneath that crop is hidden an artistic talent that few people know exists. She also is quite a songbird, for she has sung in the Glee Club for three years. Page t2 KATHRYN I. SNYDER Kitty'' Senator President E. H. S. Friendship Club. Commercial Club. Dramatic Club. Class Basketball. Operetta. Savage School of Physical Education From the long list of school activities in which Kathryn took part, we may draw our own conclusions. She has been active in a good many clubs to which she gave her wholehearted support. We know she will be a success in her chosen profession, because she has fitted herself for her work during her years in high school. Allow us to introduce Miss Snyder. Physical Director. MARGARET SNYDER Freshmen Basketball. Senior Basketball. Dramatic Club. Margaret and her sister” Kathryn seem to have attracted much attention on the gym floor. Not that they arc paragons with the perennial pigskin (or is it cow?), but these two are. to say the least, picturesque. Margaret is a good stenographer and surely can play Kitten on the Keys” with the best. DOROTHY M. STERNER SHRIMP” Basketball. Chccrlcading, Tennis. E.” Shrimp is the wearer of a much deserved and honestly earned E.” Despite her diminutive size, her athletic prowess has given her an enviable reputa- tion. If she decides whether to study Physical Training or Dietetics, she will certainly make a success of her choice. It is worthy of note that her cheer- leading activities have put all rival jumping-jacks way back in the shade. MAE SUTTON MAI2IE” Glee Club. Commercial Club. Dramatic Club. Simmons College Here is one of the jolliest little members of the whole Senior Class! Maizie always has a cheerful smile for everybody and dancing eyes and toes. May she captivate the whole world as she has her classmates in Easton High, laughing, dancing, smiling her way into our hearts! y, A -s Page 48 ANNA TILTON PAT Dramatic Club. Artistic Antics, Operetta. Anna is another one of our artists. Her clever drawings have decorated many a school tablet. Fancy would like to make her into a studio sort of girl surrounded by a faint air of mystery. That is what her charming face makes us feel. But with her sweet, friendly disposition, and ready apprecia- tion, she can easily fit into any sort of atmosphere. MARIE JOSEPHINE TOMAINE “MARY” Glee Club (4). French Club, Dramatic Club. Penn State Mary and Minnie—that's the way the story begins and so shall it end. These two have been together ever since the days when they were Freshmen and thy have grown to be inseparable chums. But we can’t blame anyone for liking Mary because her days arc filled with sunshine, smiles, and laugh- ter. Mary, we hope you can always keep this same gentle disposition, for it will mean much to you as you go through life. HANNAH TRUMBORE TRUMMY Glee Club. Dramatic Club. Hannah, people say. is quiet. But Hannah cannot be dismissed with that statement. Perhaps she is not talkative, but she has a sort of fineness in her. Her calmness is very soothing to those who come in contact with her. And her hair—words arc inadequate to describe her crowning glory. Hannah is an excellent companion and a good, dependable worker. BLANCHE UHLER Publicity Club. French Club. Dramatic Club. Captain Interclass Basketball. 1925. Varsity Basketball. E. West Chester If you want to know anything, ask Blanche: she'll tell you, even if she doesn’t know herself. For she is like a darling little terrier (not terror), with her ears ever pricked up for choice bits of information. She has gone out for practically all the school activities and. being athletically inclined, she made lots of them. Of late she has neglected us for higher things.” Do you blame her? Page U GERTRUDE ULMER Gertie” Toots Shorty” Look closely and you may be able to see Gertrude. Just as she is very petitite. so is she very interesting. She has made many friends through her sunny disposition, and lucky the person to whom she will be private secre- tary or business advisor, or some other responsible aide. Everyone likes Gertie, and we would all like to have her secret of winning friends. EVELYN M. UNANGST Rechauffe Staff Tall of stature, amiable of disposition, and a hard worker—these three apply to Evelyn. She has the distinction of being one of the heights” of the class—especially in the gym. Everyone likes her because she possesses such an easy, forgiving nature. As for being a hard worker—that is an established fact. She is always willing to do more than her share, and this accounts for the fact that she has been a first-class commercial student. VERNA L. VAN NORMAN JUDGE” Dramatic Club, Class Basketball. Glee Club. Thrift Club. “Sure, and th 'top o’ the marnin' to you!” This is Verna's pet expres- sion which she voices daily in the corridors. (We have no data on her ancestry, however.) These few words are representative of Verna—high in spirits, joyous, never worrying about trifles. Her mind is never bothered with petty affairs because she is so busy making merry that she hasn't the time to spare. NUNC1ATA M. V1ETRI Nunnie” Nunce Nancy Glee Club (4). Operetta (3). Senior Dramatic Club EAST STROUDSBURG NORMAL Nancy is another proof that we have a talented class. After having heard her sing at various times for four years, we know that singing if her forte. There is no doubt of this when we recall her excellent solo work in The Fire Prince. Nancy intends to become a teacher, but we secretly believe that opera will claim her before that. Page 45 ULDENE FLORENCE VOLKE “TOOTS” Glee Club. Senior Dramatic Club, Thrift Club. French Club. Philadelphia General Hospital If ever you take the silly notion into your head to become seriously ill. be sure you get Uldenc to take care of you. For she is going to be a nurse. She is very quiet, and we know that the worst pill would be a pleasure taken from her hands. She is one of the few girls in our class to retain her long locks. KATHRYN JANE WALLACE “Kitty” Dramatic Club. WEST CHESTER NORMAL Attention, students! Kathryn would be a schoolma’am. and that's set- tled. This gay. blue-eyed, golden-haired lass is bent on instructing others along the paths of knowledge. Her chief source of enjoyment in school has been the social affairs in which she took a deep interest. But she is willing to sacrifice all these things for the dignity of an instructor which she can carry with ease. AGNES WALTERS Varsity Basketball (3), Dramatic Club, “E.” Agnes is another one of our girls who has enjoyed her four years of high school to the full. She has laughed and danced and—studied. For three years she was one of our champion basketball players. May all her days be as happy and carefree as her high school days were! RUTH M. WALTMAN Secretary Sophomore Dramatic Club. Senior Cabinet, E. H. S. A Execu- tive. RECHAUFFE Staff, National Honor Society. Ruth, by her untiring labor, has helped to make the 1926 RECHAUFFE a success. She is a friendly, very likeable girl, and any line of business will certainly benefit by her presence. Ruth is also a good student, and conse- quently a member of the National Honor Society. Her name speaks for itself, as everyone knows her through her numerous offices. Page 46 LILLIE FRANCES WARNER •‘Willie” Senior Dramatic Club, Class Basketball. Blue eyes and curls! That’s the mental picture we receive whenever we hear her name mentioned. Lillie looks like innocence personified. But we're inclined to think that there is no small degree of mischief in her. She seems to be bubbling over with mirth. (Her smiles indicate this.) A bet- ter sport in the gym couldn’t be found. She’ll give you a lively game any time you want it. And can she dance? We'll say she can! CLARA WASSER Dramatic Club, Science Club. Thrift Club. Basketball. Clara must be a very active soul, for her tastes run to such deliciously non-passive sports as basketball and dancing. She knows what she likes and to be a success at what one likes is to be happy. Clara is very happy. She has smuggled into the inner circle of the famous “gang.” which is a recommendation for any girl, for they also ktiow what they like. KATHERINE MABLE WEISS “Kitty” Dramatic Club. Thrift Club. Commercial Club. Gentlemen, don’t look at this blonde-haired young lady too intently, for she is very apt to laugh. This is one of the characteristics which she canont hide—and we don’t want her to try. Katherine is a real “laugh- dispenser,” making merry wherever she goes, brightening those who have fallen into a melancholy mood. She always “starts something” in the classroom by a sunny smile or some witty remark. So. hats off to Kather- ine. chaser of gloom! BEATRICE WE1TZMAN Bee” “Willie” Dramatic Club, Junto, French Club. Glee Club, National Honor Society. That Bee is a “sulphite” is self-evident. Most Beatrices arc good-looking, some arc clever, a few have personality. This Beatrice has all these and lots more. Beatrice is going to write some day.—write short stories, poems, it matters not what. For that. “Bee’s” personality will always be present and hence make them noticeable. birr- � Page 47 CATHERINE E. WESLEY “Kitty” Glee Club. Dramatic Club. Whenever Catherine is around, we arc always aware of her presence by the melodious sound of her voice as it is wafted to our ears. She is the champion conversationalist of the school, having won first place in sixteen talking contests. But .after all. one can't help liking “Westy” because of her good nature. By the way. how many remember her hip boots at the Sophomore Advisory party? MARGARET WILLIAMS “PEG” Dramatic Club. 1926 Artistic Antics. Peg has the distinction of having read the same book through more times than anyone else in the State. She was the Senior Play promptress. And she is intimately familiar with thousands of books, having read the titles, as all good librarians should. How very learned!” we cry. And, too. as a dandy swimmer she has swallowed more of the Delaware element than any fish—we wonder if she could swim as far as Martin's Creek. MARIE ELIZABETH WILSON “WILLIE” Dramatic Club, Class Basketball (2), Glee Club (1). SKIDMORE COLLEGE This is the countenance of one “Willie.” known far and wide for her friendliness, good-sportsmanship, and amiable disposition. And Marie has her lessons conquered, too. She has made a firm place for herself in the Class of ’26. and has proven herself a worthy member—-especially when it comes to jumping center in class basketball. Marie’s right there with the goods. MYRA LOUISE WOLBACH If you wish to meet a steady worker, just look for Myra. Conscien- tious. patient, striving all day long. She is very quiet, speaking only when spoken to. This is a habit which might benefit us should we form it. Myra could sing “It's a Long. Long Way to Easton High School,” because all the four years she has attended school here she has travelled via train or trolley from Williams Township through snowstorms, rainstorms, hur- ricanes and cyclones. Page J,8 ELSIE CHARLOTTE WOLFE Toots” Glee Club. Thrift Club. Dramatic Club. Commercial Club. Nurses' Training school Be it known that Elsie is going to be a nurse! It gives one papitations of the heart just to think of having her for a nurse, doesn’t it? And imagine her arrayed in a spotless, white uniform, a tiny cap half hidden in her curls—a personification of the profession she expects to enter! The only thing she has to fear is that an epidemic of Wolf-isis” might break out after she graduates. FLORENCE MABEL WOODRING Flossie” Dramatic Club. Thrift Club. Normal school Florence is one of the girls who is more or less reserved—we don’t mean haughty—just quiet. But those who really know her say that she can enjoy a good joke with the crowd. One thing we do know about her is that she almost always wears a smile. So. to those of you who arc not acquainted with Florence, just watch for the little girl with the smile—you can’t make a mistake. GRACE WOODROW Gracious” Gracie” Asst. Ed. of Junto, Treas. French Club. Varsity Debating. National Honor Society, Business Manager Operetta. Cornell Here is Not-enough-of-a-good-thing. ’Tis strange how much one small person can know. Not only is Grace the youngest, the smallest of our girls but she is the most brilliant because she knows how to work. Hcr's is the gift that bids fair to turn to genius. Attractive, intelligent, a good sport, and not only lovable but much loved, our Gracious Gracie is truly Gracc”- ful. n’est-ce pas? ELIZABETH YAHRAES Betty” Glee Club (2). Senior Play. French Club. Sec. Soph. Class. Sec. Dramatic Club. Betty” is popular, as is attested by the offices she has held. And we would all love governesses if they were like the Violet” of our Senior Play. For what could be more charming than our Betty's” interpretation of her difficult role? Or who is still nicer than our Betty” of real life? Page K9 PEARL E. YEISLEY Dramatic Club. Thrift Club. Eckel's College of embalming Here is a member of the class who believes that an education is a thing worth going after. So Pearl has traveled from Tatamy to Easton every day for four long years. That's a record, isn't it? She has made a great many friends at school, for while she is a very quiet girl, still her magnetic person- ality draws all people to her. GRACE M. YUTZ “EPPIE” Dramatic Club. Glee Club (1). Commercial Club. Orchestra. Drexell Grace is one of the few girl musicians of which the school can boast. She is cornctist in a girls' orchestra and she can play, too! Vc felt sure she would choose music as her profession but she says she wants to be a librarian and that's that. (BmMtbc anieri In Memoriam In fond memory of our beloved classmate who passed from our midst before she had completed her course. Page 50 HARVEY ARNOR HOB' ‘'CHIEF” Orchestra. Band Can he play the saxophone? “Jo” says he can. At all High School dances it has been “Hob'' Arncr's jazz, hounds who have furnished the required music. Although studies never worried him. he got through just the same. If you dont know him, you can tell him by his Lumber Jacket. PHILIP BATY PHIL Orchestra. Track. Lafayette We have yet to see Phil when he is under the stress of any emotion. He turns eyes devoid of feeling upon males and females alike. He is entering Lafayette an embryo engineer of unfathomed potentialities. HOWARD BELL Babe Football. LAFAYETTE Howard has faithfully attended High School for four years, and he is reaping his reward in the esteem of his classmates and trust of his teachers. He is a true and loyal friend, and is well-liked. He has found no difficulty with his lessons, and there will certainly be a niche in the world for him. CHARLES BENNER Charles quite surprises us. Sometimes he seems so meek that we wonder why he is a Senior, and then he talks—and we know why. He has kept up a creditable scholastic record, and has found time to make friends also. He is an agreeable addition to society. Page 51 HAROLD O. BORDER “CHRISTY Track. Boxing. Club, etc. Penn State Space being scarce, we arc forced to put down, etc.” after his list of achievements. But. nevertheless, his merits are acknowledged and after graduating from Penn State, he as “Forester Border, will have plenty of chance to prove them, out in the wild open spaces, next to nature, where men are men and women are not. DAYTON M. BROAD “Tiny Football, Baseball, “E Kiski Here is the commuter from Tatamy. He never reaches Easton late, because he rides in a “Ford. Somewhere this little boy has heard the saying that. “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.” so he is going to make sure that his health does not fail because of over-exertion. Dayt. is very popular and well liked by everyone in school. STEPHEN BROTZMAN “Steve President Sophomore Class. President Junior Class, Executive Committee. Junto Staff, Track, Cross Country (2). LEHIGH Meet another marvel of the High School, a friend to all who know him. Steve is the one who has helped to put the Class of '26 upon a firm and substantial basis. He has been a very hard worker and has done much for the school. His ability as a decorator has been seen at many High School dances. JAMES E. BRYAN “NED Press Club. Junto Staff. Lafayette Ned is one of the best-hearted fellows in the Class of '26. He never boasts and seldom sulks. Moreover, if he acts like your friend you may be sure he is your friend. With these qualities he ought to be a success in any career he may choose, after graduating from Lafayette. Page 52 HERMAN BUGEN HERM” Radio Club. Travel, Dramatic Club. Because of his constant good humor and unperturbed demeanor ■'Herm” is a favorite both with those who know him well and those who have the misfortune to be merely slightly acquainted with him. This is one case where intimacy docs not breed contempt. The future Dr. Bugcn. graduate of Lafayette and the University of Pennsylvania will, we hope, enjoy a like popularity. ALEX L. CRUIKSHANK “AXEL” Manager 1926 Football Team. Stevens Trade School ‘'Al” was manager of Easton's champion football team of ’26 and he did his share in making it successful. He was not merely given an ”E” but he earned it by hard work and received it as his deserved reward. He intends to enter Stevens Trade School and study mechanical drawing. We wish him luck in his later life as a mechanical draftsman. ROBERT DARROHN ’BOB” Radio Club. Track, Glee Club. Operetta. Here is another of those Mathematically inclined fellows. ’ Bob” has an industrious nature and keen foresight simply won't let him stay down. He is a good mixer and as a result has made any friends. Electrical Engineering seems to be his calling and we have no doubt that he will succeed. BORAH DEUTSCHMAN “RADIO BEN” Orchestra. Band and Radio Club. Philadelphia School of Wireless Telegraphy “Ben” is a good companion and an interesting talker, if you arc interested in Radio. His whole career has been remarkable because of his power of concentration—on radio. It will probably continue to be so. for he intends to follow radio work after graduating from the Philadelphia School of Wire- less Telegraphy. Page 53 HARRY WELLS DRAKE ••Ducky” “Commodore'' Football, ”E.” West Point We suppose you all wonder where Drake has obtained the nickname (Com- modore) ? Let us tell you. he was one of the first of the Class of '26 to sail through the Panama Canal and to visit the tropical regions. Ducky also admits that he has a liking for all kinds of parties and dances. JAMES E. ECKERT “Jimmy” Radio Club. CHURCHMAN’S BUSINESS COLLEGE Small but fast.” that's Jimmy. If he were only a few inches larger he would surely have been a Varsity football star. But Jimmy is not daunted by size. He fears neither man nor beast, large nor small. He's fair with other people and all he desires is a square deal. After graduation from Church- man's Business College this woman-hater will launch out into the world as an accountant. ARTHUR H. EDMONDSON “ART” Pres. Senior Class. Junto Staff. National Honor Society, RECHAUFFE Stall. Pres. Delegate Assembly. E.” Lafayette This is one of our most illustrious Seniors, our Clarence of the Senior Play, renowned for his million-dollar smile, and cheery grin. Despite the “heavy” burden of the Senior Class which rests upon his shoulders, he still finds time to exercise his priceless sense of humor and has a ready and witty answer for everything. He has twinkling fingers, too. and can do full justice to both a piano and a saxophone, beside wielding a clever pen in the literary line. EDWARD EPSTEIN ED. Tennis (3), Manager and Captain, Basketball (3) ”E.” Lehigh Ed. is an all-round good sport. He is quite a tennis star and is equally adept at basketball. Ed. is a very necessary member of any class, because whenever Ed. is present there is sure to be a good argument, and what is more diverting than a good verbal “scrap” once in awhile. He has made hosts of friends in his High School career and is known in all activities. Page 54 STANFORD L. ESCHENBACH ESCHIE Baseball. Football. Class Basketball, E Club, and Glee Club. Lehigh University Meet one of the shining lights of our baseball squad. Eschie has done good work on the diamond in the past and we feel sure that the future will be even better. Stanford has never let his lessons worry him. but. nevertheless, he seems to have always gotten his stuff. GEORGE A. FRIEDMAN Georgie Junto Staff. Press Club. Debating Team. French Club. National Honor Society Lafayette Georgie is one of the High School’s most prominent characters with the fair sex. He personally approves of Einstein's Theory of Relativity, which settles the question 1 George, through his convincing speech, has won renown both in the classroom and on the debating team. He has ability; may he continue to use it. FRANCIS FORREST FUEHRER Babe Football. Basketball. Baseball, E. Lafayette Francis has a good line, and he is also a big part of a great line. Ask Francis why he is so often seen on College Hill, possibly he’ll let you in on an open secret. Francis is both a good student and a popular dancer. He has all the requisites for a successful future. JULIUS GABALIS JULIE Radio Club. Lafayette Julius is a likeable fellow and has made many friends during his four years at E. H. S. He shines most in his scholastic ability and stands forth in Physics and Math. If there’s anything in either that you don’t understand just ask Julie. Page 55 ALFRED S. GANO Lafayette A1 is another Easton High genius. Although not many have heard of him during his High School career, he certainly has made a record for himself in the Science and Mathematical classrooms. Gano intends to make use of his knowledge and we wish him notable success. CLARENCE T. GANO SKINNY’' Football. Lafayette The world will be glad to meet Skinny and will willingly receive his con- tributions to the science of electricity when, after graduating from Lafayette College, he begins his course in the school of experience as an Electrical Engineer. Being always at ease with everybody and fond of social activities he is sure to succeed. JOHN E. GARIS Band, Orchestra, Glee Club. Junior Secretary, Assembly Program Committee. Can he play a cornet? Any one who has heard will say that he certainly can. In fact, John has been one of the main stays of our school orchestra and band for four years. John, with his jolly smile and ambitious nature, has also made a creditable scholastic record. If he keeps up his musical work, we arc sure to hear more of him in the future. HOWARD STEWART GARY HOW Pres. E. H. S. A., Pres. Senior Dramatic Club. Junto Staff, Vice-Pres. Soph, and Junior Class. Cheer Leader, ”E.” Howard’s popularity is shown and proven by the numerous important offices which he has held during his school career. He was one of the origin- ators and promoters of the present Student Council. We take great pleasure in introducing him as the class—if not the school—wit. His excellent acting ability was shown in the Senior Play. Page 56 F. FRANKLIN GEEHR GEEHRIE” Football, Track. Gcehric’s motto, in school and out of school, throughout the four years of his high school career has been “Silence is Golden.” But, it is certain that he will find Lafayette “tres facile” and will be a success as an electrical engi- neer for he is a conscientious worker and a good sport. ROBERT S. GOODHART “Bob” Junto Staff. RECHAUFFE. Senior Cabinet, Debating. Track. “E.” Lafayette We arc very glad to present the charter member of the “Woman Hater's Society.” Nevertheless, he has an exceptional intellect, and has obtained con- siderable honor because of it. He seemed to be able to do most anything, but he is at his best when he is talking in the 5th period English class. Many of us know also that Bob” is no mean trackman. DAVID GREENBERG Dave” Football, French and Dramatic Clubs Dartmouth Dave ought to make a good lawyer. He has all the qualities, bar none. Few have argued against him successfully and few have outclassed him in wittincss. He aspires, therefore, to study law at Dartmouth. HORACE J. GRUBE “Dummy” Treasurer E. H. S. A.. Captain Basketball Team, '26, Baseball Lafayette For the last four years Horace has been one of Easton's most active and well-meaning athletes. That he is popular cannot be contested, having been an advisory group chairman as a Frosh. Treasurer of the E. H. S. A., and Captain of the Basketball Team of 1926. Being a football, basketball, and baseball player he easily won his “E’s.” We wish him luck in his college’ career at Lafayette. Page 57 JOHN RADER HAGER “Johnny Class Basketball, Tennis. Lafayette John is a rather modest sort of youth, don't you think so? During his four years of High School we have come to know him as one who is an ambitious student and who takes a keep participation in all school activities. And can John dance? Well, if he can’t then no one ever coul - He tells us that he is undecided as to his future career, but we think he would make a good doctor. JAMES JOHN HANLON “Cap Mick Jim Capt. Football ‘25, Vice Pres. Executive Committee, Pres. “F Club, Baseball, Glee Club. “E.” Pitt “Hello, Jim'.” is heard on all sides when Jim goes through the hall. Is there anyone who doesn't know him? He has been applauded from the stands when he so ably captained the champion team of '26. His pure tenor has thrilled hundreds who attended the operettas for the past three years. Jim. however, is not only a great football player but also a good student. So you see “Cap” is an all-around student. HARRY HECKMAN Hecky Orchestra. Dramatic Club. Cheerleading, “E.” Behold, one of our worthy cheer leaders is before us. As a cheer leader Harry has no mean talent. And as his scholastic stand shows, ability is not lacking there, either. Hecky” seems to be quite popular with the fair sex at our school dances. We wonder if it is because he does the Charleston so well. Perhaps! WALTER S. HIXSON Walt Hix Radio Club. Cross-Country, Basketball. Walt” is a fine pal for anyone. He is a quiet and bashful youth until one has won his friendship. Hix” is a hard worker, in and out of school, mostly out. He has a weakness, however, in that feminine smiles are fatal to him. We feel sure that a few years’ of experience will overcome this, so we won’t worry about it. Page 58 RALPH C. HOYT •Romeo” RECHAUFFE Staff, Vice-Prcs. Senior Class, Capt. Tennis '25. ”E. University of Pennsylvania Ralph is also one of the athletes of Easton High. His ability as a tennis player has been well shown in the years which he has played on the Easton High Tennis Team. Although Ralph has been very quiet during his Senior year, it only shows the fact that he is interested in someone who docs no go to the wonderful school in Easton. We all wish Ralph success in future years. HAROLD S. HUTCHISON •‘Hutch” RECHAUFFE Staff, Cross-Country, Track, Business Mgr. Senior Play Lafayette We have with us today the Sheik of Martins Creek,” the one and only. It is a shame that he has permitted himself to be tied down and his style cramped. But a good man may be down but never out and we expect great things of him when he graduates from Lafayette and begins his career as a scientist. JOHN L. INGHAM “JONNY” Junto Staff Manager, Debating. Band (2) . Dramatic Club (2). Cheer Leader. E.” Lafayette You are now looking at the handsome young cheer leader and classroom comedian. John has great ability and is one of the few to survive four years of Latin. He says he likes it! His good natured smile generally gets him whatever he wants. He says his time schedule is one hour work, one hour play, and the other ten for himself and-. FERD H. KICHLINE PICKLES” Dramatic Clug, Debating. Notre Dame Ars est celare artem. Art conceals art: it takes brains to conceal brains. From this we arc led to believe Fred one of the genii of the Class of '26. But we know, from frequent flashes of wit. that he is hiding his blinding light under a bushel which he will cast away when he enters Notre Dame and later takes up life's serious duties as a scientist. Page 59 ROBERT F. KIEFER Bob’' Junto Staff. Salesmanship Club. Bob” is another one of the Junto Staff who has tried to do his best to make the Junto a greater paper. He has always mastered his studies, even though he has been very busy outside of school during his high school career. We arc sure his pleasant disposition will bring him just rewards in the future. HARRY E. KIRCHGASSNER •KIRCH Track (3). Football (1), Assistant Manager Football, Clas Basketball. Kirch has tried all forms of athletics in high school, but the one which he likes best and the one in which he excels is track. Purely by perseverance he won his letter in football. He has shown a fondness for mechanics, and we wish him luck in his career as an auto mechanic. HARRY B. KONN KONNY Editor-in-Chief Junto. Senior Cabinet. Varsity Debating. Delegate Assembly, E.” LAFAYETTE A Bigger and Better Junto”—that’s Harry’s motto, and he has strived hard to carry it out. The results brought about by his hard work show that it has in no way been in vain. Besides his Junto and literary work. Konny has received creditable renown in Debating. Lafayette can feel honored in receiving such a journalist as Harry. JOHN S. LABATE Debating (3), Business Manager RECHAUFFE Staff. Stage Manager Senior Play, National Honor Society, E. LAFAYETTE The orator of the Class of '26. John's success is due to hard and diligent work, coupled with a high degree of intelligence and a pleasing personality. He has made a success of his high school career. He has earned his E and. moreover, was Captain of the Debating Team of '26. To the future Dr. Labate, graduate of Lafayette and the U. of P.. we wish like successes. Page 60 JOHN K. LANTZ Tennis. E.” Lafayette John is another of the members of the Class of '26 who have shov� n their ability as champs” on the tennis court. John is a very good student and is a friend to all who meet him. He is a bit bashful, but as you all know such boys turn out to be the opposite in the end. HOMER EUGENE LITSINGER HOMEY GARREEK” Football (2). Track (2). Class Basketball. E” Club. PENN STATE Homer is another one of our athletes who has helped make Easton High noted for its great athletic teams. Although Homey has always given sports much of his time, it has not seemed to have harmed his scholastic standing. He has lots of ambition and a good head. May they be of use to him. GEORGE W. LUTHERMAN Leech Football. Track (2). Cross Country. New York University Leech is one of the best fellows in high school. He has developed himself into one of Easton's best track men. Notwithstanding his athletic inclinations, his scholastic record would not cause him to hide in a corner, providing it was not too bright, and his friends would outnumber his enemies, if the number of the former were one. We wish him luck at N. Y. U. ALLEN MCPEEK AL Dramatic Club. French Club. Allen is one of the many commuters to Easton High. He travels a con- siderable distance each day in quest of knowledge and that he has obtained, as he has already been on the Honor Roll, which shows his ability to be a capable student, and one of whom Easton High may be proud. We arc sure that all those who have met Allen have been rewarded by gaining his friend- ship. Page 61 PLACID MAMMANA Pat” Dramatic Club, Class Basketball and Football. Salesmanship Club. University of Pittsburg Pat. as a member of the Iota Sigma Frat. is supposedly above reproach, but at least it is permitted to credit him with the qualities he possesses. He is remarkable because of his sportsmanship. His ambitions are to study Commercial Law at the U. of P. We wish him success. MARTIN E. MENGEL Slim Baseball. Martin is one of those shy and bashful boys from the country. Slim” has derived some fun and knowledge from Easton High and has found and made many friends. Slim” is a good student and intends to follow his commercial course, in which he has done well. CHARLES O. MILLER Chot Radio Club. Chot” is a peculiar sort of person and is one who is always on the job; moreover, this is true only when that job is not too much for Charles to do. as he also believes in the saying. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.” Charles is a person whom one can easily become acquainted with and that acquaintance nearly always lasts. Chot also receives much fresh air as he rides in an open-air Ford every morning for several miles. ALBERT A. MINOR AL” SAX” Class Basketball. Band. Baseball.

E.” Southern California Allow us to present our worthy baseball captain and gridiron player. Mr. Morrison is well known by all the students in Easton High, especially the feminine sex. As for being able to do his stuff on the dance floor. Mutt” is right there. His pleasant, cheerful disposition has won him many true friends. HAROLD F. MORROW BUD 'SPEEDY Track (3). Cross Country (2), Basketball (2). New York University One nickname he acquired and the other he earned by being one of Easton's fastest track men and Captain of the team of '26. Thru his four years in high school he has been especially noted for his knowledge of and lectures on Physical Education, of which the latter has given him good training for his future career as a physical instructor after he graduates from N. Y. U. CARMEN J. NORELLI French Club. Lafayette ' Cajsar was ambitious.” Take heed, aspiring youth. A long and bitter career waits the teacher of Mathematics, even though a graduate of Lafay- ette.

MERCERSBURG AND PRINCETON • Ah. at last the sheik of Easton High has arrived. I suppose you all won- der why. Well, for one thing. “Vie” is a careful dresser and always pre- sents a fine appearance: at least one thinks so. Secondly, “Vie” has a large car of his own which most every girl admires. On the other hand. “Vic is a briliant student in Physics and Drawing. He sure docs own an artistic hand. KENNETH OYER “KEN LAFAYETTE “Ken is a likeable fellow, and has been popular with all of us. Although he is a very quiet chap, his presence is always felt. And as anyone who has seen him might suspect, he always has a good word for everyone. As an engineer, he is sure to make good. Go to it. old man. and show them you can deliver the goods! STANFORD PAINTER “STAN” Baseball. “Stan is the original ladies’ man. When his eyes get in their work, he is hard to resist. And who can deny the power of a head of wild, wild” waves? But the fellows like him. too. and he makes merry company. DONALD P. PRIMROSE “PRIMMY Operetta (2, 3 and 4), Glee Club (2). After looking over “Primmy's” record and remarking that his hobby is dramatics, we would think that he would aspire to a musical career to Grand Opera. But his ambitions are much more prosaic. He is another of the Class of '26 who looks for honors in the Electrical field and in Lafayette. Page 64 ROBERT M. REED BOB President National Honor Society. Assistant Business Manager RECHAUFFE, Tennis, Track, Senior Play. E.” Dartmouth Bob is very industrious and makes a success of whatever he attempts. He is a popular student and there were any who did not know him before the Senior Play, and they were few. they certainly know him now because of the splendid way in which he played the part of Mr. Wheeler. Let us hope that his college career will be as successful as that of his high school days. KENNETH F. SCHLABACH Ken Monk Football (3), Basketball (2). Baseball (1). Executive Committee (2). Track (1). E. Michigan College Ken leaves behind him a list of achievements of which he should be proud. By entering into the sports, and social functions of the school, he has won the good will of all his classmates. After graduating from Mich- igan College he intends to become one of America's foremost dentists. TILGHMAN R. SCHLOUGH TIL Football, Basketball. Baseball, “E.” LAFAYETTE We take great pleasure in presenting to you Til, another quiet mem- ber of his sex in Easton High. Til” has not only worked hard to keep up the standards of the school as far as studies arc concerned but he also has worked hard in the athletic field, for which Easton High is so widely known. He has a liking for Engineering and did remarkably well in the subjects leading to that profession. EDGAR SMITH Football (3), Basketball. E. Ed. has proved himself worthy to be called a good football player. He has plaved on Easton High's undefeated eleven for three years and in his last year he sure played some fine games. Ed., as far as everyone knows, must have received a kick out of coming to school if nothing else. J ctL fZjUs+9 $ h .0 ,9 3 Pane 05 WILLARD STECKEL STEK Lafayette Perhaps you have seen this quiet, good-looking chap and didn't know who he was. Well, if that’s the ease, we take the greatest pleasure in pre- senting Willard. Stek’ is a fellow who always minds his own affairs and this, like his pleasing nature, has won many good friends for him. If Willard doesn't make a success of life, it won’t be because he lacked friends. HOWARD N. STEM STEMY Business Manager Junto, Football, E. Cornell University Stemy is the person who has pulled the Junto to its utmost success. Without his hard work in striving to obtain the support of the students, the school paper would have possibly been unsuccessful, although Howard had some very good assistants to help him. Howard’s hard plugging in the last few minutes of the P’burg game showed his fighting spirit, even if he had to hurt his million-dollar nose in doing so. HARRY J. SULKIN Pants” Bohemian Band, Orchestra, Glee Club, Track. Cross-Country. New York University Harry is another one of our musical geniuses. He is the good-looking fellow we saw leading the band at the P’burg football game. But Pants never becomes so taken up with his music that he forgets his studies. He has lots of ambition and is a hard worker—may he be justly rewarded. BROWN R. SCHWARTZ Brownie Freshman Baseball. Swimming Team (7). SPRINGFIELD COLLEGE This pleasing youth in his friendly and agreeable manner has made many friends during four years in school. ’ Brownie’' is a good student and takes a keen delight in mixing a little fun in with the drudgery of study. Brown is best known in the athletic world because of his swimming and gymnastic ability. Page 66 LOUIS TAKACS Orchestra (2). Baseball (2). Louis is the sort of a fellow who attracts people when they don't know him. and interests them when they do. He can accomplish much when he makes up his mind to try. and he is capable of making up his mind to many things. May notable success be his. HARRY M. TAYLOR Track (2). Glee Club. Operetta (2). RECHAUFFE Staff. Junto Staff. At last we have come to him! To whom? Why. to the heaven- endowed of our class, Harry of the never-failing witticisms, the shining gold mop of hair, the lilting voice, and the beguiling personality. The very suggestion of him conveys much. Need we say more? H. KIEL TRUMBORE TRUMY Glee Club (4). Operetta (3). Football, Class Basketball. Track (4). New York University Kiel is one of Easton High School's best trackmen, as a member of the relay teams of '25 and ‘26 he made a wonderful showing. As the King in the Operetta of '26 his performing was excellent although handicapped by a serious illness. But his grit and courage were far more to be admired. He is the prince of good fellows and we wish him luck in New York University. WILLIAM E. TRUMBORE Bill'' Football (3). Baseball (3), Basketball. E.” Centre College Here is Bill.'' the flashy end of Easton High's victorious team in '25. Bill also has a cultured arm. as he certainly docs know how to whirl the ball over the plate. One thing we would like to know about Bill” is what he passes from his hand to some little one as he goes through the many-eyed” corridors. It certainly is too bad Bill, that you can’t stop and converse with her. Page 6: CHARLES VOLK CHOB Charles has kept himself more or less in the background, but those who know him best appreciate and like him greatly. He has been faithful to his class and studies, and it would be a pleasure to know more like him. We wish him never-ending success. LESTER W. WAGNER LES Lafayette No matter what is said against him or for him. the person who makes his acquaintance will forget it and formulate his own ideas, based on his discovery that “Les” is a good scout and a pleasing companion. He is another embryonic engineer and Lafayette student. HALL F. WEAVER ••Red” Track. Class Basketball, Operetta LAFAYETTE Here's to Hall Weaver, the unbeliever In things not colored red.

He has a sure-fire line of wise cracks, and laughter is never lacking where Ralph is. Page 68 WALTER WOLFINGER “Bud Walter bids fair to become a prominent and successful business man.

EDWARD HAROLD ZINN “Ted “Bobby Football. Glee Club. Operetta. Senior Play. “E.” LAFAYETTE The villain of the Senior Play has arrived and it seems that Ed. tries to get in love all over again. However, he has been successful in only one brave attempt. He was a widower in the operetta, but do not take the wrong meaning from that, he will not be one forever. He is a good stu- dent and good sport. We all hope, that the one who appears last in this book, will be successful and attain all that his heart desires. Page 70 Junior Class History N the year 1923 the largest Freshman Class in the history of Eas- ton High School en- tered the Wolfe Build- i n g determined to make the most of the oppor- tunity offered them by the City of Easton. We spent our firsr( year becoming accustomed to a new school life. We great- ly admired the upper classmen, and looked forward to the day when we, too, would be able to participate in the school activi- ties to a greater extent. At last the day arrived: the day that would decide whether or not we would be able to go out and say we were Sophomores. Most of the Freshmen were successful in the efforts of their first year. During the year 1924. the Sophomores helped E. H. S. win many victories in football, basketball, baseball and track. As a class we loyally supported all the activities of the school. As Juniors, the next year found us going to the new Eas- ton High School. We entered the new life with a will. The victorious E. H. S. football squad contained about twenty Juniors. The track and basket- ball teams were likewise supported. In inter-class basketball the Juniors held the championship of the school. Not only did we support the athletic activi- ties, but we also contributed to all scholastic interests. One of these activities was the operetta. The Fire Prince. given by members of the Glee Club. Some of the leading parts were taken by members of the Class of 1927. The social affairs of the class were not forgotten. The Junior-Senior Dance on April tenth was a very enjoyable affair. The activities for the year ended with the Junior Prom. We now look forward to being Seniors, that state of glory in which we can reflect on our struggles during the last three years. We hope to be worthy of our name by living up to the standards set by the Class of 1926. junior President___________________________ Vice-President______________________ Secretary___________________________ ....... ....James Lamb ..........Fred Muller .......Frank McClusky Treasurer............................................

Page 7; Sophomore History r' URING our second year of high school we have become a valuable ad- dition to our Alma Mater. With plenty of spirit and pep as a backing we have engaged in all school activities, and many of our members have helped Easton High to ‘bring home the bacon.” We have given sub- stantial support also to the Glee Club, and the Class of ’28 was well represented in the Operetta. Many a Sophomore back was exercised to the breaking point in the famed gymnastic exhibi- tion. And to establish ourselves more firmly in athletics, we had both a girls’ and boys’ class bas- ketball team. Despite the fact that she is only a Sophomore one of our classmates was elected to the 1927 captaincy of the girls’ Varsity basketball team. Not to be outdone by the other classes in social affairs, we held a most enjoyable dance early in the year, so that under the direction of our capable offi- cers. we have accomplished something not only scholastically, but socially as well. Now we arc fully prepared to undertake the duties and pleasures of our Junior year and we feel that with our whole-hearted support, our loyal spirit and enthusiastic participation, our Sophomore year has been a great success.

Page 88 Junior High LTHO its activities are somewhat overshadowed, due to its close prox- imity to the Senior High student body, nevertheless the Junior High has been on the go all year and forms an excellent training school for future upperclassmen. With its own champion athletic teams, its own clubs and organizations it has developed a strong self-reliance of its own that need not back-step for anything. Its delegates take an active part in the Student Council and soon the Senior High will have to look to its laurels. President______ Vice-President Secretary...... T reasurer..... OFFICERS .......Margaret Thomaston --------Arthur Werkheiser _____________ Laura Watt ........Fred Morganstern ATHLETIC I Football ITH a championship team, a new stadium to go with the new school, and financial independence, the 1925 Football Season has been the biggest success on record. Seventy-five candidates responded to Manager “Al. Cruikshank’s call for football material and with but four regulars as a nucleus a hard season was in prospect. The opening game, however, convinced everyone that Pat Reilly had another championship aggregation under his wing. The first game, with Lehighton, was more of a track meet than a football game. Easton being on the long end of the 80-0 score. The next week Easton defeated Lansford 28-0 in a loosely played game. For the third contest Easton journeyed to Atlantic City, where By Dixon's New Jersey champions were trounced to the tune of 35-13. Atlantic City took it so much to heart that they have refused a return game. The next week another crew of champions was taken in tow. Nutley High being the victim. The score was 32-0. Bethlehem fell next, in the hardest game of the year, 6-0. Despite a wet, rainy day. stu- dents and townspeople turned out en masse, to a game even more important than the P’burg game. The next week, on another muddy field, Easton tri- umphed over Scranton Central, 19-0. Then followed victories over Allentown, 7-0. and Lebanon. 20-6. The Turkey Day game with P’burg came off as predicted, Easton winning, 27-7. The total for the year is: Easton, 254; Opponents, 26: but even that total in no way denotes Easton’s superiority. Any team that can defeat Atlantic City, Nutley, Bethlehem, Scranton and Allentown on consecutive weeks surely has a just claim to fame. Only superlatives can describe this team; the best coach, the best captain, the best backfield, the scrubs—it would get tiresome enumerating all the good points; it is sufficient to sum it up by the most impor- tant of all—the best spirit.

The new gym was an incentive to greater efforts and the squad toiled faithfully to merit the support given it by the student body, whose interest seems to have been reawak- ened in basketball. Conditions, cuts, injuries and illness took their ______toll heavier than usual. Individual stars shone brilliantly thruout the year’s work and good material has been developed for next year’s college crop. Next year’s squad will have experienced men from this year and will undoubtedly have another championship aggregation. Page 88 TOP ROW: Hoagley: Kabatchnick. Manager: DeFay, Coach Chalmers, Ihrmark.

Qirls’ Basketball BHIS year the girls of Easton High School have been represented by a basketball team of which we may feel justly proud. They have played every game in a way which showed that they not only knew how to play, but how to win. Much of the success of the team is due to the coaching of Miss Chalmers. Through graduation Easton High School will lose some of its best players but it is certain that the standard of playing by these girls will be resumed again next year. It would be useless to consider the team in icspect to its individual members for its one and only slogan must have been Team Work! Thus every effort to criticise indi- viduals would be contrary to the team's own wishes.

Baseball ITH practically a green squad on his hands, Captain Jim Morrison was placed in an unenviable position at the start of spring training. By dint of hard work and cooperation a fighting team was formed from chaos and a hard season battled through. The new diamond was duly broken in and the muscle developed by the squad in rolling and leveling the field came in handy, so humor has it. At any rate the season was a success, regardless of the games in the won and lost columns, judging by the fun and experience gleaned from it. Page 90 TRACK LEFT TO RIGHT: Top Row, STANDING: F. Duffy.

Track RACK this year has advanced greatly in popularity, as attested to by the larger number of candidates on the squad, and a general inter- est throughout the school. Manager Meixell’s call early in spring set things moving. Cross-country last Fall prepared the way. An inter- team meet held October 17, was won by Captain Morrow, with Mam- mana, Reed, Weaver, and Craig finishing next in the order named. An extensive schedule has been arranged, placing Track, this year, on a par with the other major sports. Page 91 CROSS-COUNTRY TEAM LEFT TO RIGHT: STANDING: MeixclI. Manager: Duffy. Coach- TOP Row.

Cross Country LTHO still in its infancy, cross-country at Easton High has taken a firm hold on the students and gives excellent promise of great things in the future. Despite the fact that Captain Morrow was out for a time on account of an operation, work progressed rapidly in the capable hands of Manager Les” Meixsell until Morrow was able to be back on the job. Cross-country calls for stamina, perfect physical health and grit. The boys who went out for it realized the task confronting them and buckled down to tough work, with the fighting spirit dominating everything. Page 92 LEFT TO RIGHT: STANDING: Ingham.

Three dual debates were held. The question was: Resolved, That the United States should enter the World Court at the present time, under the Harding-Hughes Reservations. The Affirmative team composed of Goodhart, Funk, Labate, and Huppman. alternate, successfully debated Reading and Allentown at home. The debate at Norristown, however, was unfortunately lost. The decision was 2-1. The Negative team composed of Woodrow, Friedman, Konn, and Pinks- key, alternate, debated at Reading and Allentown and were defeated. When the negative Norristown team came to Easton the negative unfortunately were again defeated. All credit is due to Miss Garner, our new coach, who spent many hours in preparing us for the contests. The Ursinus Debating League was joined but owing to the fact that we last the dual Norristown debate we were eliminated from it. Page 9.J CHEER LEADERS LEFT to RIGHT: SEATED: Muller. Veit. Sterner.

Cheerleaders the nth BOVE we have what is left of Easton High’s famed cheer leaders after a hard season extracting yells from fellow-students. As a last final effort they dragged themselves together to pose for this picture. With six members of last year's squad as a nucleus a hard-working team was formed which did noble work throughout the entire year. As a personification of Easton High's spirit they filled their roles to degree. Page 94 c- EASTON HIGH SCHOOL ASSOCIATION LEFT TO Right: SEATED: Gebhardt. Purdy, Gary, Morrison. Greene. STANDING: E.

New men were broken in. marching practiced, a new repertoire learned, and. in general, the spirit at the games pepped up. The band’s work was nothing less than heroic, especially at the rainy games. It is certainly appreciated. Page 101 Senior Play 1ST ROW: Huppman. Gary. Yahraes. Hester. Williams. Price. Ramsey. Woodrow. Snyder. Reed. Nicholas.

For the first time in the history of the Easton High School, the Senior Play was given in the High School Auditorium. Ample proof that the play “Clarence” was a success was shown by the capital audiences which witnessed both performances. The characters were successfully and dramatically portrayed. Much praise is due Miss Grcider and Mr. Miller for their work in coaching the play. From a financial standpoint, this Senior Play was the most successful one ever given. Operetta “The Fire Prince” was the operetta chosen for this year's presentation, and one would have to go a long way to find a more entertaining, harmonious, and generally delightful production. The solo leads were excellently taken by the foremost vocalists in school, and with the well-trained chorus, the pleasing scenery, costumes, and lighting efTccts. the operetta was certainly a credit to Mr. James Beam and his assistants. Clubs DELEGATE ASSEMBLY r m y difficult HE E. H. S. Delegate Assembly was instituted March, 1926, as a branch of the E. H. S. Association, through the efforts of the Senior Class to form the first Student Participation board ever established in Easton High School. It is composed of representatives from all home rooms. Despite its short period of existence, it has already taken over the care of the halls, and has in a great measure paved the way to further student cooperation. OFFICERS President....................

The great honor conferred upon Washington was indeed repaid by the sights we saw in our whirlwind tour. On the afternoon of our arrival, we made a bus party through the city, and stopped at the Lincoln Memorial, and Pan-American Building, visiting the Memorial Continental Hall and Corcoran Gallery of Art. In the evening we spent a blissful hour at the Library of Congress. We continued our mad pace the second day. and in the morning we went to the United States Capitol, Botanic Gardens. United States Fisheries Com- mission, Old National Museum, Air Craft Building and New National Museum. After luncheon, at our hotel, we made the famous trip to Arlington and Mount Vernon. We took a steamer back to Washington, and after our crowded day we were glad to spend the evening in the enjoyment of Keith’s. During the few hours of our last day, we visited the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, the Washington Monument—which only a few brave ones ventured to ascend by foot—and the White House. We left Washington about 2.55 P. M.. arriving in Easton at 8.30. a weary crowd, but happy withal. Page 106 COMMENCEMENT PROGRAM 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20.
