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

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

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.
