THE PIONEER Howard E. Mather, the renowned President of our class, dwells in the great metropolis known as Westtown. Mr. Mather has been attending G. H. S. for the past three years. He has filled the office as manager of our champion baseball team, without fault for the past two years, and has also held the high office of secretary of the student body. For two successive terms he has been elected President of the Orange County Inter-School Baseball League. This year he further distinguished himself by capturing one of the I). A. R. essay prizes. We feel that if he works as diligently in the future, as he has in the past three years, he is bound to succeed, and without doubt will be considered the greatest lawyer of his day. Margaret Phillips, who has filled the office of Vice President with remarkable ability, has been in G. H. S. four years, and has toiled so ardently that she is now salutator-ian of our class. She showed her ability on the stage by taking the pait of Lady Noeline in our Senior play. But it is when “ Marnie” takes up a racquet and steps out upon a tennis court that she shines brightest. In 1913 she won the H. S. championship at her favorite sport. Last fall after playing exceedingly fine tennis on our H. S. T. team she
