JOHN WARREN HUNT Piltesville, Maryland Academic John's dcsire to become an aeronautical en- gineer will certainly be fulfilled if his efficiency and interest in science are continued. He has also shown admirable traits in the role of ex- ecutive and treasurer, for John is our very capable senior class president and school treas- urer. HELEN ELIZABETH HEWES Owings Mills, Maryland COIN,-i7ll'7'C'lIll The mention of school spirit brings to mind our enthusiastic secretary, Helen. Her friendly smile and loyal spirit have made her beloved by everyone at Franklin. One of the numer- ous incidents which will keep popping into memories of school days will be, I'm so giddy, you know, and the play in which Helen said it. 6 Seniors ANDREW ADRIAN DUNCAN Pikesville, Maryland Academic Here we have one of the leading executives of the class, for Andy holds the responsible offices of president of the F.F.A., president of the Boys' A.A., and vice-president of the senior class. Also interested in sports, Andy exempli- lies a typical high-school senior. JAMES THOMAS SOLLERS, III Pikesville, Maryland General jimmy is as adept at wielding a baton as he is at wielding pen and ink to fashion clever drawings. Also interested in photography, he has done some unusual work for his English class, and his candid camera has added a new, modern feature to The Dial. ELEANOR AUGUSTA ADAMS Pikesville, Maryland Genera-Z Eleanor Augusta Adams is quite a dignified name, but not so our Spanky'l. Her con- tagious giggle in a quiet classroom may lead us all to act anything but dignified. She and Vicky are seldom seen apart, and they make a team that might be correctly called the long and the short of it. G. WARD BARSTOW Glyndon, Maryland General Ward is one of those people who can really swing-both on a dance floor and when jiv- ing on a clarinet. He has been quite promi- nent in sports as well, particularly lacrosse. Ward says he's going to be a farmer, but per- sonally we think he'll end up next to Fred Asnire or good ol' Benny . 199 ELEANOR JANE ALLEN Owings Mills, Maryland General One can always find evidences of El's exceptional talent somewhere around school, for her dainty drawings always adorn some bulletin board. Her artistic talent is shown in her clothes, for they are always in the height of fashion and fit just so. She also uses some of her other spate minutes for photography. MARY CHRISTINE BARSTOW Glyndon, Mayland Academic Chris' many diversified talents are gifts which we all could wish to possess. Almost any poster in the hall will have that familiar CB in the corner. She gives evidence of her am- bition to become a designer on all her book covers, and we have no doubt that she will be a Schiaparelli in no time. 7 HARRY A. BELT Upperco, Maryland Gi'111'r'nl In his own quiet, unobtrusive way, Harry has helpfully co-operated in projects around school. As a member of the F. F. A., he has taken an outstanding part in the many activities of this organization, and has proved to be a really valuable future farmer . VIVIAN VALERIA BLANK Owings Mills, Maryland A elulenz i 1' Vivian and Ingreet-here is a laugh-pro- voking team that we're sure could rank with Bergen and Charlie McCarthy. But we can count on Vivian for more than laughs, for she is one of those persons who are capable along many lines and can be depended upon to the utmost. f l 8 BENJAMIN F. BLACK Reisterstown, Maryland General Benjamin's interests are really quite diversi- fied, for he supports the F. F. A., and the Discussion Group equally enthusiastically. As one of the Franklin representatives to the Washington Conference, Benjamin did a really fine job of reporting. Who knows but that someday he may be a state representative in- stead of merely one from Franklin! VERNON BERNARD BOLTE Reisterstown, Maryland General Vernon is famous for two things: he is an ardent worker in school activities and he is a mainstay in the F. F. A. Because of his hard work, Vernon deserves much of the credit for our Junior-Senior Party in '38. As for his interest in the F. F. A., we think that some day he will be International President! Y ! S en io rs 1939 GARLAND ALBERT BOSLEY Owings Mills, Maryland Gamfral In this member of '39 is plenty of the Old Nick, that quite frequently asserts itself to the delight of his classmates. Gog is another of the hot dancers of ,39. Not only as il sugar-footer and the like, but also as a tap dancer of real skill, has Gog shown his talent. MARY KEZIAH BRATHUHN Reisterstown, Maryland C0'llL'7VLC'I'L il1fl lVlary's H in typing is the envy of every- one. Having filled the office of Miss Pylels secretary so efhciently, we're sure she will find a good place in the business world. Her pleasant and easy disposition would also be a welcome addition to any office. GORDON IGNATIUS BOWERSOX Pikesville, Maryland General In physics class Gordon is to be depended upon to understand almost any difficult prob- lem or experiment. He even seems to master these things with ease. Gordon also has talent in business lines, for his work on the business staff of The Dial has been really valuable. OLIN MARTIN BROADFOOT Pikesville, Maryland Gevzeral What would Glee Club periods be without Olin to keep us giggling, for no one can make the funny faces that Olin manages to make. However, in more serious moments, he is really capable of excellent singing and has been a mainstay in operettas and plays. 9 ROBERT FRANKLIN BROWN Lutherville, Maryland General Happy-go-lucky Bobby is one of our most talented students in dramatics. He is one of those persons who just seem to be at home on a stage. Bobby is also a very lively person who has a never ending source of pep and humor at any time of the day. GENEVIEVE ELIZABETH BURNHAM Lutherville, Maryland Gmwrttl Neat and petite are the words that describe Gen. She is lots of fun, a sincere friend, and is always ready to help with school activities. Gen was one of the seniors who attended the Washington Conference and has been an active force in the Discussion Group. 10 1 Seniors ROLAND MILLARD BROWN Owings Mills, Maryland Gtmtfrai Round and rosy Roland is .1 good-natured, lovable classmate, who is as unrufllecl and as unhurried as you can well imagine. He never overworks, and he never overplaysg but smiling and serene he goes his way, and with a chuckle here and a laugh there, keeps pace with the best of us. EVELYN MARGARET BURTON Garrison, Maryland Gtwlvrrtl Given a pair of knitting needles and some wool, Evelyn produces wonderful sweaters. Be- cause of the practice she gets knitting, Evelyn can really go to town on a typewriter. Best of all, her dropped stitches in knitting are as rare as her errors in typing. BAYNARD BUTLER Rcisterstown, Maryland General The athletic department simply couldn't do without Bayat-cl's wholehearted support. Mr. Swisher has found a real aid in Baynarcl, for he has helped with much of the work of coach- ing the underclass teams. Although Baynard does not talk merely for the fun of it, like some of us, he writes compositions that are Filled with subtle humor. MARY ISABELLE CHRISTHILF Rcisterstown, Maryland General Izzy-sport clothes, twinkly eyes, and an athletic swagger, charm bracelets, and chewing gumg endless pep, vim, and vigor lespecially if a dance is on handj and a friendly I-Iellon. But besides all these marks of identification we must include in very large letters school spirit and everyone's pal. 1939 INGREET BOWEN BUTLER Reisterstown, Maryland Academic What a lot of pep lies in those merry blue eyes! Ingreet is famous for several things. The most important are her strong soprano voice, her love of fun, and the fact that she is the other half of the team of Blank and Butler. JOHN CORBETT Pikesville, Maryland General John may seem sleepy and bored in a class- room, but if you want to see how alert he can be, just give him a gun, a dog, and good hunting weather. Besides being a hunting enthusiast, Reds,' is interested in dramatics. His work as a director in the Dramatic Club this year has been invaluable. 11 DOROTHY LENORE CROSS Rclsterstown, Maryland A ca.de'm,ic Mr. Wheeler frequently says, Dorothy, tell us the answer, yours is usually right. Not only in physics is Dot so efhcient but in all she undertakes. In fact, she is as quite at home in the field of sports as she is in the physics lab. WALTER MILTON DeVILBISS Boring, Maryland Gl'lI.l'7'fIil Always laughing at something or other and usually singing a song under his breath, Walter has made friends as easily as he has attained school prominence through his excellent sing- ing. Walter hopes to continue to study music, and we all join in saying good luckl' to him. 12 EVELYN FRIEND CURFMAN Mt. Wilson, Maryland General We will always remember Curf in a varsity tunic, for in that she spends most of her time. As a really good athlete, she will be heartily missed, next year, for it has been many of Curf's well placed shots that have saved the game. EDITH WILSON DIXON Reisterstown, Maryland Com m e rcial A smile for everyone is Eclith's passport to popularity. Riding and dancing find great favor with her, as well as giggling with friend Hester Wilson. She is another of '39 that does not tall: uselessly but malces many friends through her quiet, genial manner. en io rs 199 ELIZABETH GESSFORD EBAUGH Reisterstown, Maryland Academic You can always trust Ihby to find the funny side of a bad predicament and pass it over with a series of giggles. However, there is another side to her nature which has won for her orominent offices in school organizations. With such a character as this, there is no doubt that she will go far. ELMER ROLAND FISCHER Reisterstown, Maryland General Bill is known to every member of Franklin for several things. These are his enthusiasm for sports, his dainty execution of the minuet, and his very distinctive laugh. Also he sup- ports the F. F. A., ardently and really sells pencils strenuously. Bill is skilled in another field, too: that of catching greased pigs. JEANNETTE MARIE ELSEROAD Upperco, Maryland Commercial Jeannette has a pleasant, placid expression that is a wonder to us more scatter-brained or excitable persons. Although she did not begin her life at Franklin until her sophomore year, Jeannette developed into a real Franklinite in no time and always helps willingly on any school project. MARGARETHA A. GEISELMAN Reisterstown, Maryland Generail Margaretha is one of the mainstays of the Domestic Science department and can always show one something really fashionable which she has made. Interested in school activities in general, Margaretha can be counted for loyal and willing help in any undertakings around Franklin. 13 ALMA MARIAN GORE Rcisterstcwn, Maryland Gmwrnl Dancing feet, a smooth page-boy bob, flowers in her hnir, and an ever-ready laughithese arc Alma. We are sure that the auditorium at noon would really feel lonesome if this danc- ing senior weren't sugar-footing on down . Another place where Alma is always on hand is the gym on practice or game days. FRANCIS J. GOTTSCHALK Pikesville, Maryland f:f'Hl'l'l1f Francis, who hasn't much to say, seems to live within himself a great deal, Perhaps his retiring unto himself so frequently accounts for the quaint and imaginative details that creep into his compositions. 14 mio rs LAWRENCE KIRK GORE Reisterstown, Maryland General Lawrence has a hail-fellow-well-met air that has gained for him a prime place among the members of '39. He also has won a. prime place in musical activities around the school. Two things will always be associated with Larry: they are a blue Ford and You know, it's just like clowntownln ADELAIDE MAY GREEN Boring, Maryland Commercial This quiet but winning young miss always has a cheery smile ready for any of us. Even rainy days do not seem to affect Adelaideys happy disposition. We are sure that Adelaide will be a successful secretary, for she personihes our ideas of trim efficiency to a HT. CHARLES JUNIOR GREEN Reisterstown, Maryland General Charles' violin is as indispensable to the orchestra as his baseball ability is to the team. Always in a good humor, Charles has an easy manner that allows him to take his troubles gracefully. He can give an English report with ihis same ease and can always make it funny. MARY LOUISE GROTHE Rcisterstcwn, Maryland Commercial We are sure that Mary would think things just all wrong if she clicln't participate whole- heartedly in sports. This year, with her as manager, the girls' lieldball team ended in sec- ond place in the county league. This is a new honor for our team, and we are sure that Mary deserves part of the credit. 1939 NORMA ELAINE GREEN Pikesville, Maryland Acfbdemic This senior, although of short stature, has plenty of vivacity stored up. Because of Norma's capability as chairman of the hospi- iality committee, the members of the teams will always remember the 'Qfeedsn as one of the brightest spots in this year. Wie will always re- member her for entering into everything with lots of pep and vigor. WILLIAM D. HAMMOND Rcisterstown, Maryland Academic Bill is, without a doubt, one of the most well- informed members of the class. He seems to find no difficulty in mastering subjects that cause the rest of us worry. Besides this, Wil- liam's good-natured manner has won him many friends. 15 ELEANOR ERNESTINE HEALY Glyndon, Maryland A Clllll' ni i 1: Our capable editor-in-chief served in thc fame capacity on the staff of our school paper last year. We hope that the effort she has in- vested in her work for The Diall' will not seem in vain to her. Besides being talented in journalism, Elnor is one of our most brilliant and popular students. HELEN HUNT HEMLER Reicterstown, Maryland C frm m 1' rr-ial Little and lovable is Helen. Many do love her for her sweet disposition and pleasing ways. Her two dim.ples are as famous among the sen- iors as her prettiness. Her intense blue eyes have a way of transmitting sunshine on gloomy days. 16 JOHN PETER HEIN Pilccsville, Maryland General In Pete we have thc original super-highe pressure salesman, For when he approaches you, magazine in hand, you may as well give up and buy it in the beginning, Although he seems to us perfectly equipped to lnecomc a number one salesman, Pete says that he hopes someday to lne coaching Franlclin's teams and winning the County Championships. SARA ANN HEWITT Owings Mills, Maryland Academic' Sara is one of those lucky persons who al- ways appear neat and trim whether at nine in the morning or at three-twenty. One reason for her trimness is that her hair never comes down in wet weather or gets mussed. However, Sara is not tl quiet, serious person, for when she starts to tease! ! ! Sen io rs 199 MARGARET LUCILLE ISLAUB Owings Mills, Maryland Central Spring and summer are Margaret's favorite seasons. It is then that she may engage in her hobby, gardening, for Margaret is a lover of flowers, and her garden contains all varieties, sizes, and colors. Her well-known giggle har- monizes with her hobby-bright, full of sun- shine and joy. ELSIE MARIE KOENIG Reisterstown, Maryland Com mcrrial This blond, petite, senior is definitely not lacking in that thing called pep. Chick is quite active in the Music Club and other or- fanizations around school, and is an efficient commercial student. This last asset, together with her enthusiasm, insures success in any task which Chick may undertake, CHARLES K. KERN Owings Mills, Maryland Gmlerul This senior is quite well-known among us for his delight in teasing. ln fact, when Charles is on a teasing spree one should really be on guard. I-lis other main interests in life are playing a guitar and-well, we shan't tell on you in public, Charles! I l MILDRED LOUISE KORMAN Reisterstown, Maryland G011t'1'nl Sweet-tempered and quiet, Mildred often sur- prises us with one of her inexhaustible supply of jokes. She can also add to their humor by the Ill'Tl.LlSll'lg way in which she tells them and intersperses them with pleasing chuckles. Her hobby is surprising-she collects turtles. 17 EUGENIA HOLLAND LAMAR Stevenson, Maryland C mum e rcia l Here is an example of a Dresden china type of person. Wlith her blonde hair and blue cyes, however, she also exemplihes the Navy blue and gold, of which she is so fond. We really regret that Jean did not join us when we were freshies instead of waiting until this year. DOROTHY LOUISE LEPPO Reisterstown, Maryland Gmmral Dot has really been worth her weight in gold for her untiring work in the Girls' League. Moreover, she is a speedy typist, and has been evervone's helper around school. Her ready-to-help manner and new ideas will certainly help her along the road to success and happiness. I8 S an z'0 rs BETTYE HOWETH LAWSON Owings Mills, Maryland Academic Bettye combines participation in social activ- ities with interest in scholastic work. The un- usual part is the fact that she does both so suc- cessfully that she has become a reallv outstand- ing member of '39. With a Flare for writing and dramatics, Bettye has served capably as literary editor of The Dial and as director in the Dramatic Club. MARIAN LOOSE Glyndon, Maryland Academic Our most ardent lover of good literature is Marian. When asked the name of her favorite boolc, she is most apt to reply, The next good one that comes outf' Mimi hopes to become n chemist, and from indications in science classes here, she is destined to be successful in that Held. BARBARA TOOKER MacPHAIL Owings Mills, Maryland Ge11.r'rn,I Bob and Gladys may usually be sought in the same place, for they are most inseperable. Though Barbara is generally rather quiet, a giggle may be frequently heard from her direc- tion. She has a pleasing contralto voice which is a valuable aid to the Glee Club. ZELMA LORRAINE MECHALSKE Eccleston, Maryland General Zel and Evelyn Burton are another of the sworn pals of the class. Zel has also been a mainstay on class teams and keeps a cool head on her shoulders when things get complicated. She has the happy faculty for taking things as they come and is usually to be found in a care- free mood. 199 JUNE LILLIAN MECHALSKE Owings Mills, Maryland Commercial Juneis description is that of a typical heroine that you meet in stories. Her neat, blonde hair and blue eyes signify that she is one of the fairest of the fairer sex. l-ler quiet manner and friendly disposition add even more to her pleasing personality. EVA ELIZABETH MILLER Rcisterstown, Maryland Gefzwral Eva came to Franklin just this year, but her sweet disposition and genial ways quickly won her friends. With a cheery l'Good morning she has put many of us in a better humor when we felt particularly cross and cranky. We vote for more Evas in our class! itir ..... it 19 THOMAS EMMETT MOORE, JR. Glyndon, Maryland A radffnz in With a casual air of nonchalance, Emmett has sauntered through his life at Franklin. He is another one of '39 who can be counted on for frequent laugh-provoking wise-cracks. Em- mett is cne of the tallest members of the class and has broacl shoulders to match his height. VERA NORFOLK Reisterstown, Maryland Gffruwrll Although usually in rather quiet moods, Vera's habitually genial expression and ready smile assure anyone that here is a person eager to cooperate and help. She is interested in music, but is more individualistic than some of us in that her instrument is a mandolin. EVELYN T. NAYLOR Reistcrstown, Maryland C ofmme rcial Evelyn is brim-full of athletic ability. She is able to play a complete basketball or field- ball game without as much as blinking an eye, and this takes plenty of conserved strength. Evelyn's umph has been invaluable on our teams as well as in our senior activities, GRACE SOPHIA PEARSON Reisterstown, Maryland Commtfrcial Enthusiastic and peppy, Grace is on the go from early morning to late at night, here, there, and everywhere. During her two years with us, she gained athletic prominence, and has been a real asset to our teams. Grace at- tacks all situations with a will whether they be in the classrooms or in the gym. '?.ahin-.s--M ft ,nav we Senio rs ,mmegiiil I 1 ,J Z0 5 199 AMELIA A. PELCZAR Pikesville, Maryland A caidem ic This mischievous little blonde person has won many friends in the one short year she has been with us. Bright, pleasant, and capa- ble, Amelia is liked by all, teachers and school- mates, alike. Amy's favorite pastime is talking, as we all probably know by now, and pet dislike is reading. DAVID THOMSEN NICOLAS POPPLEIN Reisterstown, Maryland General David has really proved that old adage, He varies inversely with his weight. We are sure that no play would be right without him, and his trumpet adds a great deal to the orchestra. He is a born lover of animals, and gathers around him every stray pet that finds itself within his radius. MYRTLE GERTRUDE POBLETTS Reisterstown, Maryland Academic lVlyrt's cheery smile and friendly nature will prove a great asset to her when she steps out into the world. Although one of the smallest members of the class, Myrt ranks high in her stuclies. Another of her talents is hair-dressing, as her always neat coiffure denotes. ELIOT H. POTTER Owings Mills, Maryland Avridzfmic Six feet and one inch of funny sayings and funnier antics-this is our Eliot. However, he is not all jokes and funny antics, for this year Eliot has been an active member of the Discus- sion Group and The Dial staff. As an actor he did a wonderful job or crying for new worlds to conquerf' 21 JAMES HARFORD PYLE, JR. Pikesville, Maryland A fade m ir' With a wit that is really unusual, Jimmy is always coming-thruu with clever remarks. When he chooses he can apply his talent to the writing of really good papers. Jimmy says he is going to be a minister, but somehow we just can't imagine it! ! ! HARRY M. SLADE, JR. Rcisterstown, Maryland A mill' rn i 1' Doc is a person whose easy going disposi- tion can't be ruffled. Also, he has been one of the class leaders, serving as president for two years and taking a prominent part in all sports. Of one thing we are sure: Doc will never lack friends, for his disposition is such that everyone just naturally likes him. 22 KYZZOTS GLADYS LORRAINE RHODES Owings Mills, Maryland Conwrwrcial Another of '39's boolcworms is Gladys, for she reads almost continually. Her thirst for knowledge and ability to absorb it are reflected in an excellent scholastic record. Another one of her favorite ways of spending leisure moments is strumming strains of Beethoven or Bach on her piano. DORIS THELMA SMITH Pikesville, Maryland Geneoul Doris is so well groomed from the top of her head to the tip of her toe that she will be an agreeable asset to the office of any business man. Moreover, her stenographic record is assurance that she will be able to keep the af- fairs of an office in excellent condition. MARY ELLEN STALLINGS Glyndon, Maryland General Free of care, gay in spirit, and agile in sports, Mary Ellen is near and dear to those who really know her. We can thank her for placing many welcome shots in the basket, and the varsity will realize her absence on teams during next year. CHARLES THOMAS TAWN EY Upperco, Maryland GGTZGTU.-l Charles is a real supporter of the Great American Game and in the springtime he can usually be found on the baseball diamond. Charles is also distinctive in the fact that he is the only member of the class interested in be- coming a forest ranger., MARGARET LOUISE SULLIVAN Owings Mills, Maryland Commercial One of the most promising secretaries-to-be, Margaret is a willing helper and a reliable worlrcr. Her smile brings with it enough sun- shine to brighten any dark day. Most people wi h dispositions as jolly as Margaret's like to Gnd a means of expressing their happiness in music, and she is no exception. IYELEN MIRIAM TINKLER Reisterstown, Maryland General Helen's neat coiffure always shows the time and trouble that she spends fixing it to suit her dainty taste. She has the enviable school girlls complexionn, a pleasant smile, and a merry twinkle in the eye. Tink has a carefree personality, too, and usually is laughing to her- self or with El Allen over something funny she has just heard. 199 1 I Z3 JESSIE NEVA WADDELL Reisterstown, Maryland f,'llIlIIIl1'?'l'illl Upon close scrutiny, Neva is found to be a very versatile young miss. She enjoys reading practically all types of literature. Neva is a very enthusiastic sports fan, too. Her favorite sports are skating and swimming, and she en- joys them at cvcry opportunity. PHILIP LEE WATTS Pikesville, Maryland U1f:r4'rn,1 No play or opcrctta would be successful if Phil were-n't around to paint and build scenery and to arrange difficult and artistic lighting effects. When not working on such things as these, Philip can usually be found in shop at work on some complicated project. 24 PHYLLIS LOUISE WAGNER Pikesville, Maryland Arefidemic' With Phyllis as president, this year's Student Council has soared to new heights of success. She has also been a very prominent member of the Glee Club. Aside from her capabilities, Phyl will always be remembered for laugh- ing brown eyes and a gentle voice with that Lver so charming lilt in it. ESTHER LOIS TRAINOR Pikesvillc, Maryland Comm1'r4'ial In Esther we have a mainstay of the music department. However, her talents are not lim- ited to classics, for she is as capable at swinging a swing song as she is at singing arias. Esther also ranks high when it comes to pulchritude and is always as neat and trim as the prover- bial pin. S en io rs 199 ALEXANDER EARL WELSH, JR. Reisterstown, Maryland General Earl is an all around participant in many school activities. He is also most liberal with his car when members of his class wish to go hither and yon. And last, but not least, his work on the Junior-Senior party will never be forgotten. HARRY EDGAR WILLIAMS Reisterstown, Maryland Ge11c'ra.l Harry is, in the broadest sense, a class leader. Because of his interest and his ability to take the initiative, he is usually prominent in activi- ties both in and out of the classroom. '39 realizes that Harry has been instrumental in making many of its class activities successful. 3 1,2 P t it ge if si Ak A -.ws 1 Q Q A ss +G X -l Q' X jg l 2 5 1 F t MARJEE EVLYNN WIGEN Pikesville, Maryland General It was our gain and Grand Rapids' loss when Marjee came to Franklin. I-Ier fascinating ac- cent soon made her stand out from the rest of us and become an individual in the class. She and Eva have become fast friends and lunchtimes usually find them together chatting. VIOLA RUTH WILLIAMS Reisterstown, Maryland Gmlerrll This tall, brown-eyed senior played an im- portant part in this year's Heldball successes. In fact, Vicky ranked among the first Eve high scorers in Baltimore County. If she is as suc- cessful in her ambition ito model clothesj as she has been at Franklin, Vicky will soon be posing for Vogue. 25 Senio rs HESTER MAY WILSON ROBERTA JEFFREY ZINK Glyndon, Maryland Pikesville, Maryland l'un1 n1r'r1'iul Gc'm'ruI Hester Wilscxii is just as dependable as her Bobbie is one of the few possessors of red name leads you to believe.

The Life and Adventures of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs NCE upon a time, at the season when the leaves were turning red and gold, seven little dwarfs timidly, yet eagerly, approached the Castle of their Dreams. They had at last reached the stage of life when they could enter the Castle, although on the lowest floor. When the dwarfs entered, they were confronted by an impressive group of persons. These people were not dwarfs, as were our friends, but were large, self- assured persons who called themselves upper-classmen. Then these queer per- sons boldly asked the timid little group just who they were. None answered im- mediately, but at last one of them was shoved forward. He replied boldly, We are a jolly little band, and have come to travel to the top of the Castle. Then the others queried, But, what are your names? The seven little dwarfs hung their heads in shameg then again the same one answered, 'iWell-er, a, well,-we haven't any names. The wicked witch cast a spell oier us and we just can't re- member. The others laughed but replied, Well, we will name you as you journey through the Castlef, Suddenly one of them said, Why, you've got a name al- ready, pointing to the spokesman. Weill call you Doc because you seem to know all the answersf, When the dwarfs got settled in their new home, they all started to talk at once. But hnally one was heard above the rest. And so the others quavered, Let's make Doc the head of our group and he can take charge of all of our worries. So the dwarfs were organized. As the year went on several of the group were named by the upperclassmen. When one bewildered lfttle fe'low strolled into an algebra class, prepared to take gym airily attired in a gym suit, the upperclassmen immediately laughed and laughed and straightway called him Dopey. BashfulH also got his name in the first year at the Castle. Une night, when the stars were twinkling and the moon was bright, all the little dwarfs shined up their shoes and pressed up their suits and skipped merrily into the Castle, where a grand affair was in progress. It was a Mdancei' and the first that the dwarfs had ever seen. All except one walked boldly in and then-Snow White, a beautiful Castle lady, tripped daintily over to the little dwarf and said, And do you dance, kind Sir?', The poor little dwarf blushed and blushed and even tied his beard in knots. He did dance with the lovely Snow White, but after that no one could help but call him Bashful. After many, many days, little cards were passed around to the dwarfs. Some of them invited the dwarfs to come to the next floor of the Castle, but some of the others fand this is very sadj told them that for another year they would have to stay on the lowest floor. Now most of the dwarfs went merrily on feeling quite important in the bar- gain. They were getting so very old and experienced that they attended dances without a tremor. In fact, one little dwarf developed into such a ujitterbugv that the next morning usually found him very drowsy. Again the upperclassmen grasped the chance to name another of the band, and so they dubbed him Sleepy. The little dwarfs had a very happy stay on the second floor of the castle and really felt important when one of their own organizations, the Latin Club, presented a Roman wedding and banquet. This evening made the dwarfs feel very romantic and Bashful actually whispered to Snow White, Amo te. And again some little cards came around. These invited the dwarfs to come to the next floor of the Castle. They did indeed feel important now, so much so that one little dwarf fwho was minus about a quarter of a credit, growled, You 28 might think they owned the placef' However, this could not make the happy little dwarfs angry, all they did was to merrily name him Grumpy.', While on the third floor of the Castle the dwarfs really did themselves proud. All during February an air of electric excitement prevailed. The dwarfs were working tooth-and-nail feven Dopeyl for their biggest event so far-the Junior- Senior Party. They were working so hard, in fact, that the dwarfs were just flying around. One of the dwarfs fwho was allergic to work, by the wayl got a bad sneezing attack from such strenuous activity and ever after he was called Sneezy. And now comes a secret. The witches, magic mirror has been coaxed to speak and it says that the party was the best that it has ever reflected, and this mirror is very old. However, when the dwarfs weren't all working for their party, their paths were somewhat separated. Some of them learned to punch things that were, incidentally, the worst spellers. They also learned to write in a very complicated way that ironically enough was called ushorthandf, Ironically because it took poor Sleepy two hours one night to figure how to write his name. Others of the dwarfs proceeded to make terrific mixtures in the chemistry lab. In fact, Dopey performed the hydrogen sulphide experiment before the class. The only difficulty was that he made it so strong that to this clay not one of the dwarfs can eat eggs. They also learned to speak francais That is they at- tempted to speak it. They were really quite successful, for now all the academic dwarfs can say Parlez-vous francais?,' quite expressively. But finally the time rolled around for the little cards to come out again. To their extreme delight the dwarfs had been invited to come to the very top floor of the Castle. They had finally reached the pinnacle of their dreams. Still, there was one dwarf as yet unnamed. However, he was so completely thrilled and excited to think of his exalted rank that the title I-Iappyu just seemed to fit him perfectly. To the dwarfs, this floor seemed the most exciting of all, for one big event followed on the heels of the other. In fact, everyone was kept in a real whirl. The climax was a charming musical production. It was called The Mikado , and occurred in The Land of the Rising Sun. Many of the dwarfs took part in this and really swelled with pride when it was a success. Again, as last year, great excitement reigned during February. And again the supreme suspense was because of that great event-the Junior-Senior Party. However, this time Sneezy did not suffer from an attack. For this year t.hc dwarfs did not have to raise a hand to work. In fact, they did not even know what work the Juniors were doing. Ir was all a deep, dark secret. At last the night arrived, and what a good time the dwarfs did have! Sammy Kramer and his orchestra made all of them want to truck on down , and the delicious re- freshments made them wish to eat just as lustily. There was just one difficulty. and it was that the time seemed to be on wings. However, as Doc remarked philosophically to the other dwarfs, All good things come to an end. While on this floor the dwarfs put on their prettiest smiles and posed for Mr. Zamsky. At least the dwarfs thought they were pretty smiles before the proofs came back. Time slipped by, and again it was time for the cards to come out. But this time the dwarfs did not get mere cards. They were much more important. It was now their turn to receive pretty little be-ribboned rolls of paper. These had caused such concern in the last few weeks that some of the dwarfs found gray hairs in their beards. But at last the dwarfs received them, and they were now alumni.', And so together, they rode away into the great wide world where they lived happily ever after. 29 H ---- And They All Lived Happily Ever Afterl' NE day my dwarf-friend and I were riding along thru a seldom frequented stretch of woods. We noticed that a recent storm had torn down many of the vines which grew along the banks. Our deer were moving at a leisurely pace, for we did not fear the lonely forest. Suddenly, upon rounding a corner, we found ourselves on the brink of a pitch black cave, from which issued the strangest odor reminiscent of mixing garlic, burning rubber, and a lighted pipe, filled with strong tobacco. Startled, I was prone to rein my deer in, or better, retreat, but Nosey, who was bolder than I, spurred his deer on into the midnight depths of the cave. There on the threshold I remained, petrified with fear and astonishment. QI had never before seen the cave there, it seemed to have just popped out of nowhere.j I did not move for some time, being afraid to enter and yet not wishing to desert Nosey. just as I was beginning to assemble my wits and courage, a weird and piercing laugh reached me from the innermost recesses of the cavity. To see me at that moment, you'd have thought I was Njammin' and jivin,,,' for so frightened was I that my knees were doin' Yankee Doodle in swing time. My common sense told me to flee, but my conscience ordered me to go to my friend's rescue. Con- science being greater, in my case, than sense, I cautiously urged my dappled deer into the darkness. I had gone several hundred yards, perhaps, when there before me, garbed in black, almost indistinguishable from the surroundings, was seated the most grotesque creature I had ever had the ill-fortune to contact. Her cloak was of coarse material and full, but not full enough to hide her rounded shoulders and bent hgure. A tall peaked hat topped her straggly gray hair. Her eyes were keen and penetrating, her nose more like a beak than a nose, her cheeks shrivelel and sunken. Beside her, on a perch, sat a raven who would have looked sinister enough in other surroundings. The witch was in the act of pouring a few drops of some liquid into a huge iron cauldron, which hung over a blazing fire. So that was where that sickening odor had come from! Strange, it couldn,t be noticed after one came nearer. On the opposite side of the vessel sat Nosey, beaming with pleasure and straining his neck to see inside. So excited he could hardly speak, he did manage to sputter, You,re just in time, friend dwarf. For many years the witch's cave has been hidden by vines which grew over the entrance. They were torn down by the storm yesterday, and she hasn't made a magic potion yet to make them grow again. However, since we found her, she's consented to-guess what?', Unable to guess, I was invited by the witch to sit tight and watch closely. The witch continued to pour the liquid, which she explained was a magic potion, into the cauldron, stirring it with a long wooden spoon. 'iwatch the magic mirror on the wall yonder, and you shall see yourselves and your class- mates fifteen years from now, she directed. You may well imagine our eager obedience, for we considered this the opportunity of a lifetime. As she continued to stir, a mist enveloped the magic mirror, upon which our eyes were intently fastened. While the mist receded, the witch murmured inco- herent phrases over the cauldron. At last a figure gradually appeared in the mirror, a man dressed all in white. He was Adrian Duncan, noted M.D. At his side stood Myrtle Pobletts, who was his assisant nurse. We followed the doctor and nurse through the wards of the hospital whose rounds they were making. In the children's ward, we found nurses Jeannette Elseroad and Margaret Islaubg working on private cases we found Helen Tinkler and Evelyn Burton. In the emergency ward we saw Zelma Mech- 30 alske helping dress a severely wounded head. In the research laboratories, Ma- rian Loose, famous chemist, was diligently experimenting. Elizabeth Ebaugh passed Dr. Duncan in the corridor, Grace Pearson, her secretary, followed her. The witch explained that Libby was a social worker specializing in hospitalization for the poor. The scene changed to a broadcasting station in a high building in Rockefeller Center. Before the microphone stood Ingreet Butler, noted concert singer. In another studio were Izzy Christhilf's Swingaroos, that famed swing band, anal their vocalist, Esther Trainor. Next we recognized Larry Gore seated behind a desk upon which a placard read SALES MANAGER. Larry certainly had risen in the world, for besides Marie Koenig, his private secretary, his office force included stenographers Neva Waddell, Mildred Korman, and june Mechalske. The witch told us that Larry was employed by an exclusive department store. Mary Grothe was buyer at the same store, and Viola Williams was a model of evening clothes which were crea- tions of Vivian Blank and Chris Barstow. In the file of Eleanor Allen, advertising manager, were cards bearing the address of Phyl Wagner, commercial artist, and that of Jimmy Sollers, commercial photographer. Both cards were dog-eared, showing their not infrequent use. Jimmy was taking a photo at that instant, the subject being Edith Dixon, popular model. A cozy little restaurant appeared next in the mirror. Bustling about from table to table, seeing that her patrons were well pleased went Marjee Wigren. proprietress. At one table we found Vernon Bolte, local politician, Roland Brown, president of the First National Bank, and Doc Slade, prominent lawyer. fBesides being a politician, Vernon was a gentleman-farmer, the witch said.j They were lunching without haste, for they were confident that their respective private sec- retaries, Doris Smith, Gladys Rhodes, and Genevieve Burnham were caring for their offices efhciently. The mirror followed Doc in his journey from the restaurant to the airport from which he was scheduled to leave in ten minutes. Two planes landed in that time, a transport piloted by Earl Welsh, and a private plane flown by Sara Hewitt. Doc boarded a huge airliner of which Harry Williams was pilot and Evelyn Curf- man, stewardess. Other members of the liner's staff were Helen Hemler, stew- ardess nurse, Eleanor Adams, stewardess, Bobby Brown, chief engineer. Olin Broadfoot was at the airport, too, to report to his paper the departure of Reds Corbett, duckpin champion, leaving for Knew worlds to conquer. With Olin was Gog Bosley, ace news photographer. What a coincidental gathering of Frank- lin alumni this was! At Eva Milleras beauty salon, we discovered Vera Norfolk, novelist, receiving a manicure and being interviewed by Eleanor Healy, well-known journalist. A busy personage was mirrored next. A man was glancing over great stacks of papers on the desk at which he was sitting. Closer scrutiny disclosed that the sheets were blue prints, and that the busy person was John Hunt, engineer. A beautiful scene then greeted our sight. High on a mountain top, in the midst of a grove of pine trees, stood a group of U. S. foresters. One of them I recognized as Charles Tawney, another of our classmates whose ambition had been realized. Again an office was reflected. Three typists, who certainly must have been speed champions, were working there. We knew them to be Mary Brathuhn, Evelyn Naylor, and Adelaide Green. Across from them, operating a complicated new office machine was Harry Belt. A busy street corner was the place where we found bookkeeper Margaretha Geiselman, stopped in her rush to work by a red light. In the cabin of a large plane sat Ward Barstow, a member of the extension 31 service of the Department of Agriculture. Ward was making one of the many trips required by his position and was absorbed in conversation with Jean, nee Lamar, who was en route to Annapolis to join her navy husband. Behind the controls of the plane sat Philip Watts and Charles Kern, his co-pilot. A strange light now came over the mirror. Across the light flitted a grace- ful figure, dancing. How glad we were to see Dorothy Leppo's dreams had come true! Madison Square Garden-that Mecca of sports lovers the country over. Among the spectators we sighted Charles Green, enviably reputed baseball pr-rn, Baynard Butler, talented soccer pro, and two college coaches, Pete Hein and Bill Fischer, both of them recognized sports authorities. Then we perceived a room in the Peabody Institute, where a voice instructor was directing his a Capella choir. Walter DeVilbiss was using his baton with the assurance of a Toscanini. Harkl could that be a wedding march we heard? Yes, and there proceeded Norma Green slowly up the aisle. James Pyle, the preacher, was standing at the altar. One of the guests was Gordon Bowersox, the famous architect who had designed the beautiful church. On a large farm in the hills of Maryland, William Haminond was shown sur- rounded by his prize poultry. David Popplein was found on a farm which he owned in the same vicinity. What luckl Some of our friends were teachers at dear old Alma Mater. We recognized many former faculty members, but noted some new ones, too. Benja- min Black was an instructor in the enlarged agricultural department. Hester Wilson had been added as commercial teacher and Bettye Lawson as history and English teacher. Reisterstown had increased to such proportions that a large, modern hotel had been established. Alma Gore, proprietress, had inaugurated many novel entertain- ment ideas resulting in ready patronage. The girl at the switchboard in the lobbv was Bobby Zink. The pharmacy next door to the hotel was operated by Robert Johnston. Along the banks of a river we saw numerous tents, put up with the skill of an experienced hand. In the midst of a group of Girl Scouts we found Helen Hewes. Judging from the smiling faces and Worshipful attitudes of the girls, their Coun- selor was beloved by them all. The next place we viewed was the Metropolitan Opera in New York. On the stage was Barbara McPhail, who was singing the lead in the current stage pro- duction. The last scene was the most impressive of all. On the veranda of a large colonial mansion in the Blue Grass state was seated Dorothy Cross, successful novelist and short story writer, sipping a mint julep and dictating to Margaret Sullivan, one of her secretaries. The other, Mary Ellen Stallings, was transcribing a letter while swinging in a hammock suspended between two large shade trees. Amelia Pelczar walked leisurely up to the house from the stables. Since Dorothy had become famous for her witty writing, she had devoted more and more interest to breeding Kentucky thorough-breds. Amy was her partner in this enterprise. The two had proudly presented to the annals of horse-racing several equals to Sea Biscuit. Also on the estate were Emmett Moore and Eliot Potter, radio tech- nicians who were supervising the setting-up of radio paraphernalia for the broad- casting of the big race in the near future. Slowly the vision faded. Reluctantly, Nosey and I departed, casting furtive glances at the mirror till we could no longer see it. To this day, my friend and l hold that witch in highest esteem. We hope someday we many find that cave again, though it is now vine-covered and protected by magic. 32 An Evening of Historical Importance HAT gala occasion on February 24th, proved to every senior that the juniors really know all the tricks in giving a Usuperi' party. The orchestra, the deco- rations, the entertainment, and last but not least, the eats , all soared way above our expectations. The juniors transformed the auditorium into a really wintry forest scene. The little evergreens, the picket fence and the crisp, white tablecloths all added to ai sparkly air of winter. Although these things contributed to a cool wintry atmosphere, Sammy Kramer's orchestra did its part to create a more torrid one. In fact, his orchestra could be described quite accurately as just that-torrid. However, the time zipped by so quickly that we could hardly take in all the attractive features of the party before that late hour when all school dances must close, slipped around. We take advantage of a last chance to thank ,40 in black-and-white for one of those special occasions that we'll NEVER forget.

SLADE MR, GISRIEI, ERE we have the junior class-always most active in school affairs. This year the juniors have been unusually so. Many of its members have attained positions on the varsities as well as offices in school organizations, therefore gaining more honor for the class. The largest class activity was, of course, the presentation of the Junior-Senior Party. As a climax to a successful year, the junior class inaugurated a new idea at Franklin. It was to elect several of the Dial Staff members this year instead of waiting until next fall. We feel sure that this will help to bring about an easier production of The Dial next year. .lust Imagine Mary Alban without a neat coiffure. Raymond Armacost without a schoolgirl complexion.

As usual, the orchestra helped make many school activities a success. Among the activities are the Community Sing, the Music Festival and Commencement. Some of our members also played in the All-State Orchestra. This organization now plays an important Part in all school activities and func- tions, and really no gala occasion would be complete without it.

The club consists of twenty-four Juniors and Seniors particularly inter- ested in music. The organization is directed by Miss Tovell. This club has participated in several functions. In the early part of the year, the group sang several selections at a Franklin P. T. A. meeting. It also sang at a district P. T. A. meeting held at the Pikesville school. Qne of the most im- portant functions of the club was the music for the Christmas play. The beautiful music greatly enhanced the production. Some members of the Music Club participated in the County Festival at Tow- son. We feel that these persons well represented us at the festival. Ijl'f'Silll'llf .

ELEANOR HEALY 'e 'I 0 Q S ,- 0 at 'DQFW The Mikado HE MIKADO is one of the best known and best loved of the Gilbert SL Sulli- van operettas. Not only is its musical score exceptionally pleasing to the ear, but the plot is more lively and entertaining than in most musical come- dies. Yum-Yum, the ward of Ko-Ko, to whom she is bethrothed, falls in love with a wandering minstrel who turns out to be Nanki-Pooh, the son of the Mikado. A series of suicide threats and execution plans keep the audience in breathless anti- cipation of what will be added to make the situation even more confusing. This, topped by a surprise ending, plus the delightful music, furnished several enjoyable evenings for residents of this vicinity. A new plan was inaugurated in producing the lVlikado. Because the judges felt there were two equally competent persons for each of the two leading roles, it was decided that the Operetta would be given two nights, with two co-starring teamsn in the roles of Yum-Yum and Nanki-Pooh. We feel that this plan was quite successful. The cast was as follows: Thr' i'VIikud0 .,,,.,.,,,i...,,,,..,,,,.,.,,,,...,, L. Gore Prep-B0 .,,,., ,..,. , Koenig Nmzlfi-Paoli ,... O. Broadfoot and S.

Its aim has been to educate those interested in drarnatics in the elementary principles. The first presentation of the club was a one-act play, The Valiant. It was presented only to the student body who received it with great appreciation. We feel that the cast and directors deserve commendation for their splendid work in producing this play. The greater part of the school year was spent in instruction, not production. Under the willing and capable leadership of Mr. Gisriel, the members have been able to establish sufficient background for their future work in the field of dra- matics.

I . 4 YJ The Franklin Forum ITH American Cbservers and Current Weeklies very much in evidence, this newly organized group enjoys vigorous monthly discussions concern- ing affairs of the day. The members are from the United States History Classes, and Mrs. Reese is the faculty adviser. The St. Patrickls Day Dance, jointly sponsored by the Student Council and the Franklin Forum, was the first large scale money-making scheme. This dance was one of the most successful of the year, from both the financial and social as- pects. Decorations were elaborate, new food novelties were served, and feature dances took place. In fact the whole affair was a grand debut for the Franklin Forum as one of the organizations at Franklin. The group also sponsored another event of a more serious nature. This was the sending of delegates to the Washington Conference. The participants spent two entire days in Washington and included an interesting sightseeing tour in their trip. They were fortunate enough to see the Supreme Court in session. This new club has been unusually successful in its first year and it is certain that this will continue.

Besides capturing honors at Timonium, they invaded the Frederick Fair and showed just what they could do as judges. Then, as the grand climax to a fair season, the large agricultural exhibit at Franklin last fall was sponsored by the F. F. A. We were taken completely off guard, although we should have been warned by last year's campaign, by high pressure pencil salesmen who popped out at all times with Wanna buy a pencil? As another part of their campaign for funds, the Future Farmers held a Barn Dance. The decorations which changed the au- ditorium into somebodyis old barn, and the refreshments, plus a decidedly un- countrihed orchestra, made the dancers agree that farmers have a lot of fun. The Easter-egg hunt, which the F. F. A. gave to the Elementary School, was a great success, and just to show what they think of their dads, the Future Farm- ers had an elegant barbecue for the present farmers.

Another encouraging fact was that there were several freshmen and sophomores among this group. This points toward stronger teams in the next years. The lacrosse program has been included under activities of the Athletic As- sociation this year. This fact helped lessen some of the financial difficulties which were encountered last year. For the first time in several years our team participated in the county lacrosse league. We wish them much success.
