NINETEEN THIRTY-EIGHT MEMO Robert Nansteel Bob Bob's appearance on the mound and his ability to pitch the old apple down the alley have awed many a foe of our baseball team. Although also intensely interested in wrest- ling, his talents do not lie entirely along ath- letic lines. Bob's knack at playing a guitar, together with his dry humor, seems to make him the perfect cowboy. He is also proficient in his studies, particularly along scientific and mathematical lines. General Course Science Club 3, 43 Art Club 2, Industrial Arts Theater Club 43 Harmonica Club 3. Philomena M. Oricko Phil Flashing dark eyes, black wavy hair and an olive skin proclaim Phil a typical daughter of Italy. Her sparkling wit and charm make her the center of any group. She is ever ready to join in any athletic event, and when she does, she's sure to stand out from the crowd. Her keen appreciation of art and music is also noteworthy.

Robert Joseph Ormiston Max Bob The harmonica wizard of Fountain Hill -that is how we will remember Bob. He is the third portion of our hill-billy unit, and can also make a guitar talk tive different languages. Bob is of the long and lanky type, with a fine head topped by a mass of decidedly curly dark hair. His popularity with all who know him is due in part to his ability to tell and hear jokes.

Mzmolas NINETEEN Tr-Marv-EIGHT Harvey Edward Moser The old adage, Silence is golden, must have made a deep impression on Harvey, for he seems to be in quest of a fortune by strict adherence to it. Although our funniest jokes fail to elicit even a smile, Harvey occasionally comes out of his seclusion to delight us with his dry humor. The greatest contradiction in his make-up is his participation in the band, as Cof all thingsj a trombonist. Commercial Course Athletic Club 2, 35 Band 3, 4g Tatler Staff 4. James K. Moyer Jimmy James is a what d'ya call it'?'l - a-a tall Irishman. We feel justified in using this ex- pression because he himself has adopted it as his standard introductory phrase when ans- wering any question. He is the boy who achieved fame for his Alma Mater by copping first honors in the bookkeeping event at the Pennsylvania Commercial Contest held at Bloomsburg.

That is where Toots comes in, for she has probably been secretary of more school organ- izations than any other student. Anywhere there is excitement you can usually find Toots . She is a good cure for the blues, her continual wit keeps everyone laughing and accounts for her popularity with both sexes.

OIRS NINETEEN THIRTY-EIGHT Grace Louise Ovcrdorf Gracie Grace is the girl who is always seen hurry- ing through the halls laden with books and pencils. She's generally chattering when you see her, although it isn't about lessons. Grace is one of the best commercial students of the class. Grace possesses dark wavy hair, brown .eyes and a great deal of musical ability. Most of her time is spent at the piano, lessons and business meetings. Commercial Course Tatler Staff 2, 4, Glee Club 2, 4, Junior Red Cross Council Representative 2, 3, 4. William Pfeifle Bill Bill is that long, lean and lanky student with sandy hair and smiling eyes. His pet aversion is playing the fiddle, but it is our hope that if his attitude changes, he may someday become asecond Rubinoff. He can be either a quiet or a noisy individual, his disposition varying according to his mood and environment. Commercial Course Athletic Club 2, 3. Bertha Amelia Pongracz Bert See that tall dark girl with a continental and very feminine air coming down the hall? Well, that couldn't be anyone but Bertha. Bertha is very popular, a good sport and al- ways on hand for a good time. She is one of our few students who has struggled through four years of Latin and we feel sure she will succeed along that line.
