THORNTON Qi We ' ' UW 'We Dick has come up through the grades as one of the less tall of the class, but it would be just like him to show up at our class re- union as a six foot-sixer. Dick is a person with whom everyone likes to associate. He is quiet and friendly, and what he says is well HYDLAVV Lyd has upheld the Test tradition in sports by playing quite capably on both the hockey field and the basketball court, and when it comes to school spirit, you'll always End her shouting her lungs out for good old G.F.S. at any sports event. Musically, Lyd's one of lam. worth listening to. YVhen he isn't trying to get the soccer team out of classes, he can be seen scurrying through the halls with data from Mr. Breninger, in the capacity of Stu- dent Treasurer. TEST our important members, for besides playing the Queen in Iolanthe , she was a section leader in the choir. Lydia is always willing to have fun, and she always seems to make those around her have a good time, too.

-ina. CLEMENT SWISHER Clem came swishing into our class in ninth grade. Through his years at school, Clem has been in that select organization, the stage crew, as well as being general handy- man around the school. He can usually be found puttering around the loft, at almost SARA E. Sara is one of those people who make even their best friends wonder. Our favorite Southern belle certainly proves that brains and beauty do mix. She can also give us some good extra-curricular advice, whether it be golf, or the opposite sex. Although she is a anytime of day, or looking frantically for Mr. Price, or George. Clem is quiet and retiring fusually at jane -kintownj and although he avoids the limelight whenever possible, Clem has always been a loyal member of the class of '48, SPEDDEN calm and serene mainstay in our somewhat boisterous class, we wonder if perhaps she's meditating on her past or future summers in romantic old New Orleans. We won't forget that southern hospitality which unfailingly greeted us at the Spedden threshold, either. MERCER B. TATE Something new was added when Merc's heap appeard on the lot, and since then we've heard nothing but questions about greasing the motor, or descriptions of what paint is going on next Saturday. Merc is one of the original members of the class of '48, J- . and one of the most faithful. Whether he is tearing around managing our basketball team, working on the Service Committee, or cutting a mean rug, Merc is always in there plugging for the class of '48's cause, and with plenty of spirit, too. u ' 1, 4 - l .- .

' ' ill! 11 trrv ' .-4.-4 M3 ROBERT c. WHITAKER, Jr. ln tenth grade the Voice joined the class ol' '48, and with his good natured sense oi' humor, he quickly became popular with everybody. Bob's footwork shows up to ad- vantage on both the football field and the dance floor, and besides being the class expert on hot-rods and .jenkintown girls, Bob is always ready to entertain us with his imita- tions of the Mills Brothers when things get dull. XVhile most of us will be going through the open door , we hope that our handsome Strephon will not still be struggling through the key hole. BARBARA ANN VOEGELIN XVay back'in lifth grade there appeared in our class a little girl wearing a big bow. As she came up through the grades, Barbara soon crept out from behind the bow, and started showing the class how things should be run. ll' you see her dashing from one room to another, talking to the teachers with a wor- ried look on her michievous face, watch out, for a surprise assembly is coming. The Eyes is certainly capable, but have you ever heard that LAUGH? lt will always be the wonderment of us all. BERTIL WOLGER Beppe Qwho, because ol his size. can get away with the namej, joined the class of '-18 in the senior year alter a hectic landing on United States soil, from Sweden, the day be- fore school opened. His unobtrusive manner, plus his unique build and humor have gained him many admirers, and his conunand of the English language is excellent. Beppe's talents are numerous, and his guitar playing was a welcome addition to our parties. Beppe's drawing and poetry have never ceased to sur- prise us, and we are expecting to see his name with the literary geniuses of our time.
