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

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.

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.
