.. in V-x,fLjlg9, Q' , . ,E ARTHUR DODGE 120 EUCLID AVENUE Art's weakness was guns, and he had one of the finest collections of artillery in this section of the country, from muzzle-loading arms of the Revo- lutionary period up to the modern repeating ritleand revolver. His favorite sport, of course, was hunting, and Otts spent much of his time sniping rabbits and squirrels. He is looking forward to joining the army or being a state trooper as a ballistic expert. ALVIN R. DOUGHTY BERGEN AVENUE ASHLAND, NEW JERSEY AVS well-groomed auburn curls and keen sense of the ridiculous were his outstanding traits. Anywhere but the classroom found him talkative enough, and his favorite expression was, Fawncy thawtf' Horseback riding and hunt- ing with beagles were his pet diversions. Ask Alvin about that secret ambition whose picture he carries in the upper left-hand pocket of .his vest-next to his heart. Q I Y DORIS LOUISE DOWNES Wmcnr AVENUE ' BERLIN, NEw JERSEY This titian-haired young lady with the mysterious eyes will be best remem- bered for her brilliant recitutions in English class. The thing that puzzled Dinky most was what those radio talks recommended in P. O. D. class were all about-when she listened to them. Doris spent much time going round and round at the skating rink, and we think M. M. could supply the reason. Class Hockey 141. KENNETH WILLIAM DREISBACH 7 ORMOND AvENUE - BETTLEWOOD, NEW JERSEY Ken entered our class at the beginning of our senior year, and soon be- came known for his good humor and shaggy beard. He attained fame by his original theorems in solid geometry and Trig -especially for his negative geometries. Those of us who knew his notorious Chevy'7 were never sur- prised at 'his last-minute arrivals, or at his traffic tickets. Ken's hobbies were homemade telescopes and other scientific apparatus. He is planning to attend Drexel. , i. Glee Club GJ. Page Twenty-four A- 441, 1,5 gurl- .qt I A... -'Ji' A

HELEN CIITLER 129 EAST KINGS HIGHWAY Although Helen was a very small member of our class, she was also one of the more intelligent. Her pet diversion was trying to do homework in the Ef- teen minutes before school opened every morning, but she managed splendid recitations just the same fusually with her book openl. Helen's favorite ex- pression was, This is oft' the subject, but --, and with this innocent begin- ning a lengthy discussion would ensue. A good-looking chap from Camden seemed to occupy her attention in her senior year. She plans fso she saysj to get an A.B. degree without going to college. Honor Student Q-0. GERALDINE DAUER 120 WEST COTTAGE AVENUE Jerry was a diminutive miss with a rather wistful smile-but there was nothing helpless about the wallop she packed in her tennis racket or the mean angle she could put on a ping-pong ball. Geraldine was a good student, and also served as the capable secretary of the Tri-Hi in her senior year. Glassboro Normal is her aim, and that will be quite a break for any little tots she may have in her charge in the distant future. Tennis CS, 42, Secretary Tri-Hi Q-0. MARIE DE GRASSE 125 GENEVA AYVENUE hvESTMONT, NEw JERSEY Marie was one of our best-natured girls and a good student as well. Gig- gling was, perhaps, her greatest weakness, although there was hardly a class in which she wasn't told to stop talking to her pal Vi. She will undoubtedly make a good secretary-but from the way she used to hold the class spellbound when she gave those P. 0. D. reports, we think she should be a candidate for Congress to help out when they need a filibuster. Typing Staff SHIELD 141. VIOLA DI MARCO 101 Wmnson AVENUE Yi was one of our smallest girls and the most pronounced brunette be- yond question. Those big brown eyes gave more than one youth palpitation of the heart, but particularly one from Haddon High's most deadly rival. Viola's greatest ambition was to procure a driving license and then to become the proud possessor of a new Ford coupe. Ambition should be made of sterner stuff! Typing Staff SHIELD GJ.

. ,, 'ts rf - + 4 1: ' x DOROTHY, BELL EBRIGHT 821 PRINCETON AVENUE Dot was one of our taller girls, with a temperament as calm and un- ruflied as a summer sea.. It was impossible for her to hurry, as anyone would testify who walked to school with her. Those who did not know her very well thought her rather quiet, but, underneath this serious demeanor, lay sterling qualities of character. We sometimes wondered whether Dot's interest in hospitals and doctors was due entirely to her intention of becoming a nurse. Interclass Hockey C4-J. JESSE BERTRAM EDGAR 203 Easr COTTAGE AvENUE Jess was an upstanding young stalwart with a magnificent. crop of brown curly tresses. His so-called witty asides were a disrupting infiuenee in many a class, but we will best remember him for that golden tenor voice rising above the general bedlam in the locker room. Jesse's favorite hobby was building model airplanes, and his ambition is to become a pilot-if Doris will let him.4 future will be of a domestic nature. will be one of matrimonial felicity. ' MAE LOUISE ELLINGER 4 MERION AVENUE J Wooncnnsr, NEW JERSEY ESTHER ELIZABETH ELLSWORTH A Arco, NEW JERSEY Mae was a quiet, studious girl with big brown eyes and dark curly tresses. Drawing was her favorite pastime, but she was not a daydreamer, as you might suppose. Dolly was a most capable housekeeper, and we predict. that her Bette's big sparkling brown eyes and amiable disposition were the things for which she will be best remembered. She had the reputation of a heartbreaker among the swains of Atco, but had a special weakness for a certain blond ' Adonis. With Bette's skill in various domestic duties, we predict her future Page Twenty-five
