A series of misfortunes has not left Eddie with a pessimistic out- look for we like to think of him as the happiest member of the class, Eddie will long be remembered for his outstanding pole vaulting. Partial to track and basketball, Ed- ward is no mean performer in bot-h. Hunting and ice skating also hold an interest for him. Eddie is not immune to feminine charms, as his frequent presence with young ladies shows. Eddie,' is also among the shorter male members of the class, but then Napoleon, too, was known to have been deprived of several heroic inches. Eddie's stature, therefore, causes him little concern.

Although he is a little on the pes- simistic side, 'he is generally cheer- ful and knows how to have a good time. His interests vary greatly, extending from playing his trumpet to flying an airplane. He is look- ing forward to the day when he can fly his own plane. Alan Ladd is his favorite actor -because Ralph and Alan seem to have a lot in common. He also is quite an artist and can be found in almost any study period drawing pictures of B-29's and Harry james. Ralph is slow to anger, 'hard to cool, but usually most amicable. His after school hours are spent working at a local department store along with another member of our class. In the Senior Play you would never recognize Ralph as the old uncle in the beard. 'fRosie,', one of the most studious members of our class, speaks often of studying modern languages, her specialty. Of the worrying type, Rosemarie is always crossing bridges before she gets to them. She is an ardent basketball fan, although she prefers not to par- ticipate in the game. Albright Col- lege games particularly attract her attention. Many colored sweaters and skirts make up a large part of her wardrobe. Her favorite food is sauerkrautg and her pet peeve, eating cold lunches at school. She terms Cookies as one of her fa- vorites in the dessert line. She has a very fair complexion, brown hair, and blue eyes. Shillington ranks among her favorite towns. Ask her why!

Eight weeks of boot training at Camp Perry were followed by voyages to England and Bermuda. At present he is a member of the crew of the destroyer U.S.S. -I. Wm. Ditter, somewhere in the Pacific. ln school, Los was noted for speed and finesse on the soccer field and the basketball court. He was a Varsity letterman in both sports, and was missed greatly on this year's championship teams. We remember Los for his dis- arming smile and for the rougish twinkle in his eye, two character- istics very prominent after he has been up to a little sly strategy. We join in wishing him the best of success wherever he is. Acrxviriesz junior Varsity Basket- ball, lg Varsity Basketball, 2, 33 Var- sity Soccer, 2, 3.

ngnhbyn nsalu nDopryn ROBERT BURNS SARA M. CLEAVER DAVID L. IJOBA Bobby nstlli' Daffy Burns is the military minded member of the Class of 45. His chief ambition is to be an officer in the United States Army. There need not be much said concerning his character, as his achievement of attaining the rank of Eagle Scout is enough to prove good character in anyone. The effort and perseverence required to at- tain t-his honor, as well as the edu- cation received, is too great to be overlooked. This achievement is still further enhanced by the fact that he is the only member of the class who has accomplished the feat. Bobby is also a sports enthusiast with basketball as tops on his list of sports activities. His tendencies in his choice of subjects indicates a keener interest in shop and mathe- matics than in languages. Outside of sports, going to the movies is probably his favorite pastime.

She sometimes works as a waitress at one of Shartlesville's famous hotels, but in the very near future hopes to be someone's sten- ographer. Her favorite pastime is reading, but occasionally she may be seen taking a fling at dancingg ham is her favorite dish, while Tommy Dorsey is her favorite or- chestra leader. Her pet peeve is chipped nail polish. Sara's ability to resist eating ice cream may account for her slim waistline. 'LSal'l works hard and will surely succeed in any work she may undertake.

Aviation, the field of David's aspirations, is a subject upon which he can dis- course fluently. To 'be an airplane pilot is his main ambition. Let's hope the achieves it with flying colors. Generous at heart, David is never loath to supply free trans- portation to clamorous riders on his model A Ford. David's in- tentions are all well-meant. We have never known him to harbor a cruel or selfish thought. We ad- mire 'him for his saving grace-he can laugh even when t-he joke is on him. Plucky David seems to en- joy frankly both bright and serious sides of life, it is our wish that he shall never lose this happy faculty.
