THE “SESQUI” ANNUAL 11 JAMES FAULKNER “Soap” “Jim” Norwood, Pa. “The personification of all things foolish.” Let not your hearts flutter at sight of this hand- some countenance, ladies, for Jim’s specialty is breaking hearts. Another of his hobbies is making luckless batters strike out. Soap is always engaged in one or the other of these activities. Baseball. 23. '24. ’25, ’26; Glee Club, 25, 26; Dramatic Club, 26; Football. ’23, ’24. ’25, ’26. ALBERT GYSLING “Al” Norwood, Pa. “Silence is organized common sense. Ah, Ha! Not always!” Another silent bird! How he got in our class is a mystery. Another is, how he could stay with us. He never speaks of his plans, but we know they are ambitious, and are sure he will succeed. You can’t keep a good man down! Football, ’23, ’24, 25, 26; Glen-Nor News, 26; Property Committee of Senior Play. WILLIAM HAZELL “Bill” Norwood, Pa. “What makes me so wonderful?” It isn’t hard to answer this question. Our per- sonal opinion is that it is the association with vari- ous brilliant people in the Senior Class. Of course, his looks and personality have something to do with it. too. But the fact remains—Bill is wonderful. May some one always think so! Football. ’25. ’26; Basketball. ’25. ’26; Dramatic Club, ’26; Operetta. 26; Junior Play. Senior Play; President of Sen- ate. ‘26; President of Class, 25; Debating. ’24. ’25, '26: Baseball, ’26. ’ CHARLES HEPFORD. JR. ‘ Hcppy” “Charley” Glenolden, Pa. “When I loves, I loves for keeps— I lies my victims up in heaps.” Don’t you think that this boy looks brave? And yet he is awfully afraid of being teased. That’s why we’re being so careful here. Charles is an- other orator, and his debates are truly inspiring. I hat s why he’s such a good class president. Foot- ba.II. 23. ’25.

10 GLEN NOR HIGH SCHOOL JOSEPH CLEARY ‘-Joe ’ Norwood, Pa. “Argument Is the spice of life, and Joe likes his life well seasoned. Did you know that Joe is a blossoming newspaper writer? No? Then perhaps, you haven’t identi- fied “llotsy-Totsy” as this Senior journalist. Joe’s one joy is in arguing with Miss Phillips, but we are too diplomatic to tell you who wins. Football, '23, ’24. 26; Basketball, ’23, ’25. ’26; Glee Club. ’26; Glen-Nor News, ’26. VIOLA COUTANT “Coutie” Glenolden, Pa. “Coutie pounds a wicked typewriter key; She knows the keyboard rrom A to Z.” Oh yes, Coutie will some day be “Somebody’s Stenog?’ At least, she intends to be, which may or may not be the same thing! Come to us for a recommendation, Coutie. We’ll say you’re honest —’cause we don’t think you've misappropriated the class finances. Basketball, ’26; Dramatic Club, ’24, ’25, ’26; Senior Play; Crier, ’25, ’26. LILLIAN DAVISON “Lil” Norwood, Pa. “I want a man, a real man.” We think “Lil” will get him too, because as you can see by the purposeful look in her eyes, she is very determined. Whenever you hear Lil’s laugh anywhere, try to find her. for she is a positive cure for “blues.” Basketball. ’23. ’24. ’25, ’26; Glee Club, 25, ’26; Dramatic Club, '25, ’26; Senate, ’25; Op- eretta, ’25, ’26; Crier, ’26. WILLIAM DENNEY ‘Bill” Glenolden, Pa. “His speech is winged with flames of fire. For Bill's the original ‘Glen-Nor Crier’.” Bill is our orator. If you have never heard him give the Gettysburg Address in his chesticst tones, arms gesturing appropriately, then you have yet to hear it given well. Bill is a conscientious Virgil student, working out the notes in the back of the book more often than docs Miss Scholl herself.

12 GLEN NOR HIGH SCHOOL ALBERT HOGUET “Bud” “Luke” Norwood, Pa. “A man who speaks for himself.” Bud has one of the most cheerful dispositions we have ever tried to destroy. Even Miss Scholl, with her daily lectures about his knowledge, or lack of knowledge, of French can’t get him angry. But keeps everybody else in a good humor, too, thus pre- venting the “cats” from having anv effect. Baseball. '23. ’24. ’25; Football. 23, ’24. ’25, 26; Basketball. ’23, ’24. ’2b; Dramatic Club, ’26; Kincomatographic Club. ’26; Glee Club, ’25. JOHN HOLMS “The Duke” “Johnny” Collingdale, Pa. ”1 have never allowed my studies to interfere with my education.” We think we have discovered perpetual motion at last—Johnny’s mouth. No. John doesn’t talk, but he does chew gum. Johnny, we’re afraid you’ll never be a millionaire; besides, you’ll ruin the furniture. Dramatic Club. ’26; Crier, ’26; Property Committee for Junior Play. HELEN KENNY “Helene” Norwood, Pa. “A girl who is ever loyal and true. A girl who is ever a friend to you.” Helen is one of the few members of the class who has helped justify our teachers’ opinion that we are the best class they have ever taught. She has had to work hard. too. to uphold this reputation. French Club, ’26; Chess Club, ’26; Crier, '26; Senior Play. WILHELMINA KLEINE “Mina” Norwood, Pa. “Softly her fingers wander o’er The yielding planks of the ivory floor.” Added to our collection of athletes, cave-women, etc., we have Mina, the class musician. Mina’s fingers get lots of work, too, because it is to her playing that we march from our exalted seats “up front” to our room, after assembly.
