Maroon and White 11 4, if is Q' it JOHN B. BRENDLE C JOHNNIE J Worcester, Pa. I awoke one 'morning and found myself famous. Born March 16, 1908. Science Club 141, History Club 435, Latin Club 133, Oratorical Contest Q3-41. For he's a jolly good fellowf Who? John Brendle, one of those fel- lows who came to us in his Junior year. We don't know what Johnnie did in the Worcester School, but as an orator he certainly proved to be a worthy asset to our school. At eight forty-live we generally see the well known puddle jumper breaking all records trying to bring Johnnie to classes on time. Johnnie, through his high school career, had no desire to par- ticipate in athletics, but if size has anything to do with it, he surely would have been a great success. As yet he doesn't know what his future work will be, but we are positive that in whatever he undertakes he will excel.

Although not athletically inclined, she shows an interest in sports and is an enthusiastic spectator. Her inclination bends toward her studies and she certainly is rewarded for her diligence. Her favorite pastime is reading and playing the piano. Sometimes Florence seems to be dreaming, but, sh!-don't disturb her, she is out West. At least that is where she would like to be. So don't be surprised if you see her packing her troubles and leaving us. Now we know Florence's secret ambition-to travel in the great, wide open spaces.

12 Maroon and White SARAH ELISABETH CAPE Lansdale, Pa. When she will, she will, And when she won't, she won't So there's an end to it. Born March 10, 1908. K3 Science Club 127, History Club 431, French Club 145, Librarian -4 . Elisabeth joined our class in the eighth grade and has been one of our staunch supporters ever since. Before that, she attended school in Philadelphia. Elisabeth is quite a hiker, for this dark-eyed lassie makes the long journey to school from her home on foot. Elisabeth also has quite a sweet tooth, as we, who have watched her helping the G. A. A. along, know. She likes best to ride horse backg the consummation of Elisa- geth's gieslt dreams would be a western ranch, and nothing to do but ride orse ac . We have frequently heard Elisabeth say, How do you do this Verg'il? We hope she has settled that puzzling question by now. Elisabeth has not yet determined where she will go to school after leaving Lansdale High. She would like to go to the University, and pre- pare to be a teacher. We surely wish her the best of good fortune in whatever she chooses to do.
