MARY LOUISE SCHWEBEL MOLLY fdon't call her Mary Louiselj has heen with us since the third grade. For awhile, all could Hnd her sneaking in just after the first hell, hut now she makes her appearance early enough to do her share of awakening her sleepy classmates. She led the class in denting the family ear, hut lived through that incident as have many others since she led us off. Molly also was the Hrst to fly off for a college weekfend, which naturally hrought envious glaces from all . She is always so enthusiastic that we know just what a marvelous time she had. During the summer she is found at Cape May Point, which is really her ideal and the hest place on earth, no matter what anyone says trying to dis- prove that fact. We know that wherever Molly goes good times and luck will follow her. Entered 3rd, Glee Club 10th. 11th, 12th. Lacrosse ' lltli. 12th. 12th, Tot Lots. VY W-ess i aw ,Elm ,oi - A DAVID A. SMITH THE telephone hook is full of Smiths and yet there is only one David Smith. Smitty's hest known hy his wide grin and dapper raincoat. In history h: pulls out amazing marks, and as a haskethall man he's tops. One hundred five points isn't to he sncezed at in any league. If Springfield gets him Qand it's in the hagj, look for D. Smith as high scoring forward. In the fall it was David again who stood forth and prevented many a soccer hall from penef trating our goal. The ladies? Oh, yes, he's quite a Casanova. By the way, who owns that nice, hlack Buick which often sits out in the playground? Entered Kindergarten. Soccer 10th, 11th, lltli. Bas' ketball 11th, 121.Iz. Baseball 10th, llrh, 12th.

JOSEPH S OECHSLE OECHSLE-Where have I heard that name be- fore? Oh, yes, that big bruiser who used to come through the left side of the line like the 8:42 Limited. Joe certainly tore that line apart like a cannonball, but is by no means limited to football. He brandishes an accurate pencil where Physics is conf ccrncd, and is endowed with an aptitude for heavy drama. For relaxation he lectures on the mishaps of Livingston in darkest Africa, and explores dewy sea bottoms with his own equipment. joe worries unnecessarily about his nose detraeting from his appeal, for from many sources, especially feminine, comes the comment, Nice, isn't he? fflftffwe Entered Kindevgarimi. 0 Athletic Council 10lli,ll1li. i Pastorian llth.

Secondly it goes beautifully with her witty humor. But in spite of it, we suspect from various revealing clues that she really has a very tender heart. Ginny won't admit any ambition except a hankering to fly, but we have a suspicion that in the not too distant future she will be either a Wiuniaii in White clutching a scalpel in her slender fingers, or an Angel of Mercy soothing fevered brows. Anyhow, whatever she decides that she wants we know she will get, because she's as obstinate and determined as the proverbial mule Entered lst. Tot Lots.

JOSEPH STOKES,lH JOE'S another member of the famous Stokes clan, and the class of '-42's naval strategist. The class is kept in a continual state of amusement waiting for wellfgrounded prophecies from joe and Mr. Price, and in the end the Germans do exactly the opposite thing, postponing a great deal of arguing for another day. That day is always memorable because neither Joe nor Mr. Price will give in an inch until somebody rushes for an encyclopedia, and one or the other enjoys unmentionable humiliaf tion. Besides this, joe manages the business end of the Pastoriari and comes to field almost every day. We expect great things from you in medicine joe. Good Luck. Entered Kindergarten. Soccer 12th.

Vice' Pres. 1Otli, MARIESTRICKLER THIS attractive blond Miss sailed into our class in 3rd grade, and has been sailing ever since, espef cially in the summer when she Gayfly rides the rough and turbulent waters of Sea Isle Bay. Around school her artistic talents are well known, and she is par' ticularly adept at dress designing. You can't miss Marie's laugh, and on rainy days her plantivc cry of My hair! echoes from in front of mirrors, though her blond locks are certainly okay with us. Her characteristically naive remarks, ready giggle, and delicious lunches, with which she is very genf erous, make her a most enjoyable classmate. Entered 3rd, Glee Club 10th, 11th, 12th.
