Iune1928 GWYNNONIA 11 -L ' 1 f' W' ' KATHARINE KATENKAMP Kitty is a living proof that quiet people are smart. I-Ier marks prove that she thinks while she is quiet. JANE MEEKS I Janey lives up to her name, for she is mighty meek, at least in school. LEONARD MOLOFSKY Professor is some French and Latin student. Some day we hope to hear him give a lecture at Yale like our friend Tunney. CHRISTINA MUSSACHIO No teacher ever pronounces Christina's name. Poor dear, she is so little to labor under such a name. DONALD POOLE Don is always asleep in school, but you ought to see him when he gets near the girls. HARRY PORTERFIELD Harry's chief trouble is his habit of blushing, especially when a member of the fair sex is around. VIRGINIA REYNOLDS We hope that .Iinny will get her hair to curl before the end of the term. She works pretty hard at it in the French room. MARGARET REINHOLD Milly is noted for her flying leap at volley ball. We hear she is inventing a special aeroplane so that she can catch all the balls. DOROTHY SCHMIDT Dorothy is champion ball thrower of the city. All eligible males take care. Her power can be applied to rolling pins. DOROTHY SCOTT Dots is the oflicial announcer of 9Al. We hear she is going to carry on her occupation as a WBAL announcer in the future. EDITH SILBERG It has been rumored that Edith's mother left her out in the rain when she was small, and now her hair is rusty. FRANCES SMITH Frances is the artist of the class. She is a good demonstrator. You'd know it by a glance. MINNIE TOLKIN Minnie's voice puts her in the same class with Gall'ifCurci, Marian Talley, and all the other High C's. ' EVELYN WRIGHT Evy lives up to her name, for her work is usually right. JANET ZSCHIESCHE Just a quiet young lady even when called upon to recite in the class room, but, Silence is golden. ELIZABETH ZUMSTEIN Elizabeth served as president of the Newspaper Club which produced seven issues of Gwynns Falls Ripples. Can more be said for her ability? CLASS 9A2 FLORENCE ABELSON Flossie keeps order in the halls, but throws off her responsibility in the class rooms. She is a self-appointed student governor. DORIS ANDERSON Kind-hearted Doris! Her favorite words are, Want me to fix your French paper? LOUIS BERLIN Louis aspires to be an English teacher. We don't think he means it, but if he does, we pity the kids. GERTRUDE BLUM The best little girl in the class, wouldn't say Boo to a goose. She keeps the reputation of the class up to par. WILBERT BRIZENDINE Wilbert's offering to advise comes in handy when we forget our statistics. He always knows what's what. 1 WlARNER BROWN Percy's dancing reminds us of an earthquake shock in the tropics. He'd make a good plumber. RUTH BUSEY Is she for the Navy? Positively no. Haven't you noticed the Army buttons she carries around? DOROTHY BUTZ Dorothy will sing duets with Palma in the opera. Italian opera is her preference. EVELYN CLOSE Puggy cannot fight like Jack Dempsey. al- though she resembles him around the nose.

10 GWYNNONIA Iune1928 CLASS 9A l CLAUDIA DAWES Claudia is the beauty of the class and may be re- sponsible for some of the lack of concentration on the part of the boys. BESSIE FEPELSTEIN Bessie's knowledge of books comes in handy when the teacher forgets the characters. She is the authority on book reports. CAROLYN FINKENAUER Carolyn is one of the few girls left who do not use the class room as a beauty parlor. MARIAN FOSTER Marian brought her strong Southern accent with her when she came from Norf Calinaf' ELIZABETH GAREY Betty is our livliest newspaper reporter. She has such a good nose for news that she knows cxactly how much sugar each teacher uses in her colfee. DORIS GILBERT Doris is specializing in home economics. She will make a good house-mistress for some lucky male. ADA GOLDMAN Ada can hit the ball in volley. She's got some wallop. Watch out, boys. EVELYN GROFF Evelyn is so good in Latin that we suspect that way back in history she was a Roman lady. JESSE HAUGH Jesse, when not sleeping quietly, admires the op- posite sex. MARGARET HELGERT Our Sleeping Beauty is always embarrassed when the rude laughter of the class awakens her. NELVA HOBBS Nelva talks so much in school, that We tell her no secrets for fear that she talks in her sleep. DOROTHY HOOD Dorothy is the would-be vamp of the class. She is waiting for a chance to compete in a beauty contest. Powder and comb often get her into trouble in the French class. WESLEY JONES Weasel is Don .Iuan's greatest rival since he has been taking dancing lessons. How that boy can shake a foot!
