Maroon and White 21 ELEANORE GLADYS GREENHOLT 1 EGGIE 1 Lansdale, Pa. Eggie is clever, witty, and true: If you stay with her you can never be blue. Born April 6, 1909. Student Council 11-31, Class Editor 121, Biology Club 121, History Club 131, Glee Club 12-3-41, School Play 141, Librarian 141, Le Cercle Francais 141, Debating Team 141, Class Song. Eleanor is a strong supporter of the little red school house, and the back to the farm movement. Almost as soon as she appeared in L. H. S. someone discovered that her initials were E. G. G., and she has been Eggie ever since, much to her personal discomfiture. However, Eggie bears this burden with a smile, like every other. Eleanor is a very versatile young lady. She can play the piano and mandolin, and can singg she writes poetry and stories, she has won sev- eral distinctions in the public speaking line, among them being the posi- tion on the Debating Team. Eggie is fond of swimming, too, and she adores acting the dignified lady 1but don't let her kid you1. Eleanor is going to Wilson College, which is destined to become famous by virtue of being her Alma Mater. Later, Eggie expects to be a language teacher. We are sure her pupils will be trained to perfec- tion, and we envy them the many hours spent with our old pal, Eggie.

20 M aroon and White .BEATRICE A. FRY C BEATIE J Centre Square, Pa. I care for nobody, no, not I, If no one cares for me. Born January 16, 1908. Whitpain H. S.: Choruses fl-2-35, Secretary of Literary Society 131, Lansdale H. S.: Chemistry Club 145. Beatrice came to us last September, from Centre Square, to join us as a Senior. She has proved to be a worthy companion to us all. She graduated from a three year course at Whitpain High School with first honors. We hope fortune may not treat her this year at com- mencement time as it did last year. fShe was captured by the measles. J Beatrice is full of determination. She lives up to her motto-- What is worth doing at all, is worth doing well. She didn't engage in athletics, but she is very much interested in the sports, and no doubt would ,succeed in them well. Beatrice did not enter the Art Club, but is artistically inclined. Her highest ambition is to go to College, and we know she will be successful in whatever she undertakes.

22 Maroon and White MARIAN CATHERINE GROSS 1 DUTCH 5 Lansdale, Pa. A smile for all, a welcome glad, A jovial coaocing way she had. Born February 22, 1910. Reading High: Music Club 125, Dramatic Club 125, L. H. S. His- Eari Club 135, Latin Club 135, School Play 145, Librarian 145, Katty lu 45. Marian, or Dutch as we call her, joined us in our Junior year, coming from Reading High School. She seemed very quiet, but upon fur- ther acquaintance she dispelled this idea. She soon became the noisiest in the Katty Klub. If we hear the expressions For crying out and I hope we always know that Marian is in the near vicinity. Dutch is very popular, especially with the opposite sex. On account of this she has earned the title of the Dutch Vamp from Read- mg. Dutch has never gone out for athletics, but if she had, we feel sure that she would have been as successful in that as she is in the class room. Marian plans to take up teaching as her life work, but we doubt if she will pursue this vocation very long, because she shows a great prefer- ence for the last letter in the alphabet and for the name George. As a teacher--or otherwise-we wish her all the luck in the world, knowing that she deserves it.
