WILLIAM BURHMAN CCBiu7l Waynesboro Grade Schools: Chambers- burg High School: Scientiflcg Methodist. Bill came into our midst at the begin- ning of our Junior year. He resides a, few miles East on the Lincoln Highway and is one of the shilling lights in the History Class. He is the most noted scientist in G. H. S. excepting of course Mr. Lefever. For he is a jolly good fellow. . GEORGE EUGENE BERGNER lKBuckD Connnercial: Gettysburg Public Schoolsg Lutheran. P Going to Waynesboro tonight? This was the question asked regularly by Buck, but alas no more. Please, dear readers, do not mistake me. I only meant to say that now he.has regular transportation. Of course we know how it is. Sheba simply must see ber Buckie boy or she would cry her pretty eyes out. XVe hear that he has gone in for religion, his most recent dame being a preacher's daughter, but you can never be too sure-remember that old song that went, I knew a preachers daughter who never ordered water. tPerhaps he loves her stilll. Buck deserves special mention be- cause of what he has done for the class, and we are sure if he does all his work as well as he has for the class, he will be successful- D DOROTHY MAE CAREY ' llDot!l Fairfield: Union: Fairfield High School. This demure little maiden comes to us in the last year. Very little is known of her future ambitions but we wish her success in whatever she may undertake. One thing we do know she is very studious and loved by all who know her- Dot is one who be- lieves in being seen and not heard. A silent tongue, a wise head. ' JOHN DAVID CLAPSADDLE R Jessie NVillow Grove and WVhite Run Schools: Commercialg Varsity Football, 43 Class Basketball, 43 Hi-Y, 2, 3, 45 Methodist. Jessie, a wondrous piece of humanity comes to us from along the Baltimore pike, where he with several other members of the family manufacture cement products which are well known in this section of the coun- try. This chap has taken up the commer- cial course probably in view of becoming his father's clerk in business. He has become prominent to us ,through his active part in athletics, especially dur- ing football season we all considered. Jessie one of the line's strongest points, .he has also taken an active part in class sports. It seems that Jessie does not pass through town when he steps out but prefers to go South -to the well-known Llttlestown, noted for its belies., If our predictions for Jes- sie's future are true or false-we extend to him our hearty wishes for success-

EDWARD CLAIR BEARD Beardie Gettysburg: ' Gettysburg Public Schools: Lutheran: Classical: Chorus, 1, 2, 3: Hi-Y, 2, 3, 4: Vice'President, 4:1Football, 4: G Club, 4: Treasurer Senior Class: Miss Somebody Else. A Here we have our illustrious Treasurer. Beardie is rather quick and witty and al- ways sees the bright side of everything. He seems to think quite a bit of the lower class- meu. Beardie must have a great deal of life insurance because his visits to a certain life insurance agent's house are many. None but the brave deserve the fair. ROBERT DALE BREAM llDucy,I! Cashtowu Public Schools: Commercial: Baseball 1, 2, 3. 4: Captain, 4: Maroon and White Staff, 2 4: Senior Vice President, 4: Chorus, 1, 2: Miss Somebody Else: Lu- theran. Hail! Here we have Cashtowxfs poli- tician and big league ball player. None other than Ducy. He is one of the Senior boys who makes thiugs.go- Ducy although living in Cashtown, has come to our High School for four years. It is said he is going into partnership with his dad in Cashtown's General Store, but we think a. better future for him would be baseball. Hail! the conquering hero comes! PAULINE BROWN Brownie Cashtown School: Reformed: Scientific: Chorus, 1, 3: Maroon and YVliite Staff, 4. Although most call her Dot she insists on being called Brownie : no one knows why. To be a nurse is her ambition. At least so she says. There are quite a num- ber of nurses to be in the class of '27, but in case anyone should have a preference, she can be found in Philadelphia. Her big question is: How can I go to bed as early as ten o'clock for four whole years, and will I have to study history? We wish her the greatest of success in her undertaking and may she cure all her patients. Give me liberty, or give me death. CHAUNCEY REGINALD BUOHL , UReggiei! Scientilic: Gettysburg Public Schools: Football 2, 3, -1: Basketball 2, 3, 4: Capt. 4: Baseball 4: Orchestra 1: Lutheran. Here he is girls-just a mg blond he- man. How the girls do fall for this big blond's bluster. He isn't a sailor but he has a sweetheart in every port-Hanover, Frederick, Harrisburg, Baltimoreand in fact this list would include practically every town, village or ''blot-on-the-landscape within a radius of seventy-five miles. He's such a big strong boy. Cha.unce is quite an athlete on the field as well as in the parlor and we hope to hear great things of him when he gets to college. Vifhat he is going to do besides being a ladies' man, we don't truthfully know but indications point toward his becoming a peddler of Florida real estate. All right for you Chauncey.

CHESTER W. COSHUN lichesgi' Scientiiicg Rocky Grove: Chorus, 33 Pina- fore: Maroon and White Staff: Lutheran. There are two ways or pronouncing Co- shun. Ches, however, has informed us that he is not to be sat upon, and prefers the accent on the last syllable. He is an amiable lad who loves his teachers to u point of perfection-so much that We fear perhaps he may contract St, Vitus Dance or some like ailment from excessive handshak- ing. VVe have recently heard that he is stepping out. and the rumor is abroad that he is having several heavy dates in the vicinity of New Oxford. fNo names men- tionedl. Great loves of history such as Anthony and Cleapatra, etc, have often had tragic endings. Thus. knowing that he will need it, we wish him all the luck in the wor d. , PAUL L. CORNELL Klpaulii Commercial Course, 1, 2, 3, 45 Tauey- towu and Harney, Md.: Horner's School, Round Top: United Brethren. Paul entered High School ln the Fresh- man year. He is from the country and per- haps this is the reason for his good stand- ing in all his classes. He is always very quiet and studious never bothering nor mo- lesting anyone. Keep it up Paul, a silent tongue denotes a wise head. ROSE MADOLYN CULP uculpien Gettysburg Public Schools: Scientific Courseg Chorus, 1, 2, 3: Glee Club, 4: Ma- roon and VVhite Staff, 4: French Club, 43 Orchestra, 1, 2, 3, 4: Treasurer Girls' Coun- cil 43 Gypsy Roverg Miss Cherry Blossom: Once in a Blue Moong Windmills of Hol- land: Miss Somebody Elseg H. M. S. Pina- fore: Catholic. Culpiei' is our song bird, as her record will show, also a born actress. She it was who had the lead in Miss Cherry Blossom, Once in a. Blue Moon and Miss Somebody Else. In the dramatic and operatic roles she has already shown remarkable talent- we hope you keep on in this field. Culpie is also quite a slinger of rhymes, in other words a humorist. With such a start in life, success can be only a certainty but we do wish you happiness. JOHN B. DICKSON Johnnie ' Classicalg Gettysburgg Gettysburg Public Schoolsg Latin Club, 45 French Club, 4: Open Forum President, 4: Presbyterian. John B. Dickson, Orator, will.be Johnnie's title in years to come. Some of his class- mates think he was vaccinated with a vic- trola needle, because he can talk so much. That's all right Johnnie--but don't let the victrola run down. Johnnie was elected president of the Open Forum, a new society in G. H. S. That's a good start, Johnnie, and we wish you much success hereafter.
