, , L . . H tb , 5 5 , Prophecy of January Class of 1925 HE Pathe News film showing at the Stillman this week, besides being of interest to the country in general, should be of special interest to the people of Lakewood, as all of the celebrities shown are members of the graduating class of January, 1925, of Lakewood High School. We are given the privilege of seeing the famous Bixler-Geiger Movie Company at work. John Hursh, nationally-known director, and his secretary, Eleanor Landon, are busily at work on the scenario, Glittering Goldfish, written by Gordon Vaughan from the story, The Call of the Riled, by Glenn Copeland, whose famous story, 'fHis Wife's Whooping Cough, ran for weeks at the State. Harlene Fisher and Charles Pennington played the leads. Elsie Franklin, the manager of a group of theaters, has already bid for the first showing. Ruth lllontgomery poses for Pathe with her model household, consisting of Nora Kenny, her cook, Gertrude Beckett, her maid, and Dick Weaver, her butler. Don James, presidential candidate, and George Barger, his campaign manager. pause in the midst of their whirl-wind campaign to be snapped by the camera man. In the film, also, are Walter Scott, clever female impersonator, and Lois Jones, a successful business woman. Angeline Unfreed is the trombone player and Gertrude Fletcher the noisy drum- mer in the same orchestra. Adelyn Hand is now an artist of note. ' Louise Brady is a poetess of international fame. It will be remembered that bliss Brady wrote the class poem of her class. Strange as it may seem to those who knew him, Bertram Almy is now a hurdy- gurdy man. Wilbert Riggs lives up to expectations as a guide with Cook's tourist bureau. Margaret Thomson and Ellanora McGinty agreed to do a little dance for the camera man. The dance represents the kind that madethem famous as successors to the Duncan sisters. Carl Ellenberger, matinee idol and innocent cause of many shattered feminine hearts, poses for Pathe between acts, with his leading lady, Alice Eckert. The gentle Donabelle Deland is head of an orphan asylum and is loved by all of the children. Phyllis Gernhard is our local celebrity as president of the P. T. A. of Lakewood High School. James Appleyard still has his fine crop of hair and is using it to good advantage. He is now used in ads for Herpicide. Elmer Fricek has established a thriving firm in the sign painting business and is nationally known as Fricek of Lakewood. Harriet Conn and Theresa Bies are his secretary and stenographer, respectively. Society must be catered to, so Ruth King as fashion editor of the Plain Dealer tells them what to wear, Elizabeth Hinslea supplies them with the exquiste gowns, and Dorothy Giflin offers the place to wear them in her fashionable tea room. The camera man, in taking the pictures for this film, just couldn't resist snapping pretty Jean Hilton as she made pancakes in Childs' window. Gilbert Gibbons is a shrewd and successful pawnbroker. lllarjory Monson, because of her experience in collecting pictures for The Cinema, now has a permanent position collecting pictures for the Rogues Gallery. 22 'P' l -ClNEMA- 25 'C'

, , my . , Seniors SENIORS- What a wealth of memories that magic word brings to the graduate. He recalls the happiest, busiest year of his entire school life. He feels again the thrill of com- mencement night and the pride he had in his class. He remembers his friends, now scattered to colleges throughout the country, and in his thoughts he again is a senior. SENIORS- What a thrill it gives to the graduating class. They are seniors and want the world to know it. When asked, Are you from Lakewood ? a junior might answer, l'Yes, and be done with it. But a senior? Never! His answer invariably will be, You bet. I'm a senior there. SENIORS- How enviously it reaches the ears of the juniors. They think they are important, but back of it all they realize that their importance lies only in the fact that next year they will be seniors. SENIORS- The sophomore pretends he hears it not. He appears to be too taken up with the thrill of being a sophomore, not a freshman, that he can take no notice of a mere senior. But even he can feel the magic of the word and realize that some day he, too, shall reach the heights. SENIORS- There was once a time when the freshmen regarded them in awe as superior beings. They blushed with pride when addressed by a senior and hardly dared hope that they could be as great. Now, with the advent of junior high schools and the many organizations, they have lost their feeling of aweg but in its place has arisen a feeling of respect and admiration and the resolve to follow the examples set by the older students. The seniors have lost their old position of kings of the school. But they have gained a better and more lasting place-that of being the true leaders of the school. No more can they lead merely because they are seniors. They must prove their ability. They have. 21 --- 1 -CINBMA- 25 -1'
