ln fact, our class was no exception to the old rule that there are always groups within groups. Marian Blackman and Marthie Milbourn were insep- arable pals. Rolene Anderson and lune Weirick were, too. Kalsie Beights and lack Iohnson were always together. As sure as they were around you could count on fun, And there was Bill Goudy and his side-kick, Mac Grossman. They were both so full of the dickens you could see it popping out of their eyes, but they were both swell fellows. Dale Reade and Lloyd Snook were pals. Both were intelligent, clean-minded boys. Bob Seifert and Howard Trowbridge were a couple more of the class cut-ups. Ieannie Scarlett and Ruth Carter were both good sports and loads of fun. Miriam Grossman and Laura May Hoffelder were a couple of quiet lady-like girls. Here's Lorraine Karlan. l don't believe anyone ever asked her a favor and was refused. Frances Nelson was another dependable girl and always ready to help. Bill Ananias is wearing the smile that he always wore. Here's Lureign Casselman. Three adjectives describe her perfectly: sweet, zfaithful, and friendly. Tink Miller was like that too. Here's lof' Drerup who had the prettiest blue eyes and dimples. Always with lo was Bev Peters. She was certainly big-hearted. Next is lack Ehlers, a cute kid and full of fun. What a marvelous dancer Leonard Hinkley wasl Freida Kreischer had the cheeriest laugh I ever heard. lt was so catchy and genuine. Down here is Iosephine Kurtz. lf shes as industrious yet as she was in school, she'll go places. There were several in our class who were like that, A few were lune Harvey, lrene Wilson, Bob Helmer, and Paul Homsher, who was full of fun, too. Here is a fellow who was always just one big grin, Iunior Leighty. Beverly McCullick was the Secretary of G. B., and a fine one, too. l'm sure her efficiency has taken her far. Heres Willy Peachy who was always such a clean looking fellow. Theres Eleanor Bice and her sweet smile, and little Betty Schlichtenmyer. I honestly believe her name was larger than she was. Theres a girl who really was a pal to everyone, Carol Schreiber. Alice lean Seidel was studious and a perfect lady. Clardon Smith was a little fel- low, but he was one of the stars on the agricultural basketball team. l've never yet met a person who could get so tickled as lune Sollenberger. She had one of the pleasantest dispositions in our class. Heres Bill Sprandel. He was so reserved in high school that few of us really knew him. Here's cute little lo Squires. There wasn't another boy in the class that was such a perfect gentleman as Guy Swartzlander. Heres Troby Trowbridge, president of G. B. and like all G. R. presidents she was one of the finest girls in school, and Dot Walchalk who was always bubbling over with good humor. Yes, they were a pretty swell bunch, that class of 4U , and l'I'1'1 sure wher- ever they are and Whatever they're doing, that they're doing their bit to make this old world a better place to live in. -DOROTHY HAGER.

DG YOU BEMEMBEB? I was just talking to one of my pupils. She is feeling very sad because graduation time is rolling near and she realizes that in a few months many of her classmates will be lost to her and probably scattered to the four corners of the earth. Poor childl I understand how she feels. I felt the same way myself long ago. Yes, they were a pretty swell bunch, my class of 40 , I mean. I guess I'll get out my old annual and look them over once again. Dear old annual, it's rather worn and dilapidated, but, nevertheless, it ranks very high among my best-loved possessions. Let's see, here are the senior pictures. There's Betty Barstow. She was the class artist and maybe you think we didn't keep her busy and she was always so willing. Another girl like that was Betty Ann Klingel. You could depend on her no matter what you asked her to do. Keith Becker, here, certainly was a fine boy, so industrious and full of fine ideals. Theres Gene Boszor, one of the best presidents G. A. A. ever had. Here's Irene Canzier. I'll never forget the swell programs she got up for G. B. Ursell Cox was one of those basketball boys. They were a grand bunch, taking a beating like soldiers and never boasting when victorious. Let's see, there was Pea1 Hart, Abe I-Iornett, Freddie Miller, Howard Seidel, Si Sibert, Goan Strouse, and l'Gene Herendeen. They were pretty much alike, those fellows, all around good sports and more fun than a barrel of monkeys. Speaking of fun, here's Charlie Austin, who was always cutting up. And Kenny Boszor and his jokes, I'll never forget them. The conversationalist of our class was Leland Cass. I'm sure he could have carried on a conversation with the High Mogul himself. Over here is Gracie Engelbrecht, who had a marvelous mind, but she wasn't a book worm. She did lots of playing in G. A. A. And Bobby Fischer, another cutup, was always swearing off women and swinging in the groove. I wonder what's become of Hubert Forbes. He was one of the finest boys in our class and the best Editor-in-Chief any annual ever had. There's a real person, Ioyce Hetrick. I'm always ex- pecting to see her name in headlines as a newly discovered poet. She certainly wrote grand poems in high school. Here's Archie Bortner who was one of the favorites among boys. How- dy, Bort followed him wherever he went. Dieterpuss Dieterle was our class photographer and a good one, too. Here's Herbie Hontz. He could be depended on no matter what he was asked to do. Here's Iohnny Wible and Butch Shookman. I remember when they entered our class. Heart trouble prevailed among the weaker sex. They were the best-looking fellows in our class. Berniece Nott, here, was a quiet girl, but after you got to know her you realized you'd met a genuine person. Here's Scottie Kizer, an all around good sport. Next, Peggy Ley, I wouldn't be at all surprised to see her starred in a movie one of these days. She was tiny and cute as a bug's ear. I-lere's Lois Eichelbaugh who was always a perfect lady. She must be a lovely woman. I wonder if Iune Failor is still so full of fun. No party was ever dull when she was around. Here's Helen Grady. She and Phyllis Bonar were a lot alike and even looked alike. Page Twenty
