12 GWYNNONIA 1141181928 CLASS 9AZ ELIZABETH COLLEY Blondie. the beauty of 9A2. was quite the prettiest pizture in our big Fashion Show. FANNIE COOPER 'AShorty knows nearly every word in the dic- tionary. Why waste your time looking one up? Just ask her. EDWIN EBERT 'ADot and Dash. but mostly Dash. as Miss Sahm claims, PALMA I7ERTITTA Palma dreams of being a prima donna in the Metropolitan Opera Company. We hope she takes the palm. DOROTHY HAY Dee will be another Florence Nightingalel She loves to nurse the sick. although she believes in let- ting well enough alone. RAWLINGS HOBBS Rawlings' ambition is to be a lawyer. It's a good stall for deceiving people. MARTHA HURTT A'Marty is the proud president of 9A2 and a reporter on Gwynns Falls Ripples. She never speaks without a smile on those red lips of hers, MAE IRVIN May belongs to the Navy, in her dreams: she has always wanted to be a boy. She would like to be in the circus. RUTH JOHNSON Baby Bobbie with the childish voice has grown to be a beautiful young girl in one semester. MILTON KAPLAN A'Milt can play ball. After watching him once or twice you will think he is Babe Ruth the Second. STUART LITTLEPAGE Speedy is not so fast as he thinks he is, at least in English. CARL METZ Carl is a good athlete. He does everything from swatting flies to putting up a bluff about his lessons. DORIS MILLER Don't be discouraged. Dot. Some day you may have a library of your own where you may read in peace.

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.

june 1928 GWYN NONIA. 13 - T ' 1 GRACE MOOREHEAD Grace is the tallest girl in our class. American beauties grown on long stems, and Gracie can blush like a rose. MIRIAM NADISCH Miriam is a type of Jewish beauty, coal-black hair, rosy cheeks. and red lips. CWe suspect the last to be lip-stick.D MARTHA NUSBAUM Poke is like the cow's tail. She usually gets into the class room after everybody is seated. SYLVAN PAYMER Good-looking! That's Sylvan. His father thinks his son is a bright one. EDITH PINDELL Edie was a wild cat when she started but is a tame lion now. Edie has brains when she wants to use them. HERBERT ROSENBAUM Dimples. we call him. Just one look at him. and you're in love. ' SADYE ROSENBERG Poor Chewing-gum Liz, I suppose she is tired of hearing, Sadie, dispose of your gum, but it's her own fault. DORIS ROTHAUGE Dot is a good kid, but we'd rather she would save her singing attempts for cheer leading. ROBERT SHAULL Percy is our walking dictionary. His favorite expression is, Miss, I know it. MILDRED SCHREIBER Millie objects to painting her face. She is thinking of putting a new cosmetic on the market. It is guaranteed to produce a permanent blush. GAIL SHANK Gailie is just like any other draft, always blowing in at the wrong time. FRANCES SIGLER Cutie is the picture of those kewpies on Hend- ler's ice cream trucks. LILIAN SNYDER Lilian is a good sport in athletics, but rather shy on gym. It's too much like work. GERTRUDE SPECTOR 4 We havenft found out anything that Gertrude can't do, if she tries hard enough. DOROTHEA STEVENS Thea is a regular flapper. H.er constant in- quiry is, Have you seen Wright Calder? MARY SUSKIN Is she a book-worm? If you say so. She is sure easy to please in the book line. LOUISE TICKNOR Louise always manages to get good marks. although she has so little to say. EMMA VARINA She's a live wire. She's so fond of English that it is impossible for her to keep out of the lesson at any time. GORDON WRIGHT Gordon is a born tease. He tries it out on the girls, but doesn't like it much when they pay him back. CLASS 9A3 HAROLD AARON Harold is the best little borrower we know, when it comes to home-work. EVELYN BOGAN Evie's our class champion questioner. She'll soon know everything the teachers know. MARGARET CLAGETT Margaret doesn't talk much. but she thinks a heap. Her quiet smile means she's thinking about you. DOROTHY CROWTHER Although Dots is by no means a dot, she can rival the thin flappers in turning on the mat. HELEN EMORY Billy would be terribly unhappy if all the mirrors in the world suddenly disappeared. JEROME FLINKMAN Jerry is now pitcher of the school indoor team. He doesn't have much pitch left for home work. VIRGINIA FREANER Jimmy is one of our ardent dramatic stars. She carries her make-up with her, in order to keep her nose properly powdered. '
