Charlotte started her high school career in Honey Brook. She joined our ranks in her Sophomore year and soon proved to be a good Although Charlotte is not athletically in- clined she has recently been seen at the base- ball games. Do you wonder why? Well, just ask somebody who went to Washington. Charlotte is one of the outstanding members of our class, being especially talented as a singer an actress, and a speaker. She proved her ability in our high school plays. She is also fond of dancing and tennis. 1Change the t to d and see what you have.1 BEATRICE HAGER 1 Beatie - Hager 1 Lansdale, Pa.

Beatie has been a member of our class from the time our mothers had to bring us to school. From the beginning she has proved herself to be a very studious lass and has always been near the top of the ladder. She helped many of us up the Latin step. Beatie did not take part in athletics, but she was one of our best rooters, especially in the years '26 and '27. Nevertheless, she can dance-and how! Gilda Gray cannot last forever. Beatie, there's your chance. Those of us who know her best will always remember her in a little blue night-cap 1to keep her kinks in1 which she wore during the Washington trip. Beatie intends to go to Wilson College to take up the teacher's course, consequently to become-Miss Hager? We wonder!! What- ever you do-learn to cook. Good luck in that and in everything else!

However, deciding to attend the Upper Gwynedd School, she turned her steps thither while in the fourth grade. After the little yellow school-house had offered all it could, she joined the ranks of '28 at the beginning of her Junior Year. Marion enjoys dancing and her favorite pet is the nuke. Since she has pursued the commercial course, she says she will become Somebody's Stenogf' However, we are dubious. You see, Marion is interested in nature, and the phase of nature in which she is interested frequently causes people to change their mind. You see its Lanes. Yes, Lanes, of both genders. That is neuter 1moonlit, of course1 and mas- culine. Then, too-but you must ask her the res . Here's wishing her success in whatever she undertakes.

While we were in the Eighth Grade, a big, blushing, bashful boy joined our ranks. He hailed from the burg of East Greenville, and to this day his unfortunate classmates must listen to his extolling the virtues of that town. This was the person whose photograph adorns this page. He soon got acquainted, and ever since that day he has stuck closer than a poor relation. When a band was organized, Russ felt that it was his duty to grace it with his pres- ence, hence we soon found Russell parading along in the front rank, and he has paraded there ever since. The band would sound hol- low indeed without his lusty tooting on the trombone or the baritone. Russ has never fallen victim to the wiles of the girls of Lansdale. Probably the re- membrance of the females of East Greenville is too great. At any rate, he makes weekly trips to that place, and we can imagine his toting around some buxom Dutch lassie. Russ expects to be an electrical engineer, and we understand that he intends to blow up the Lansdale Power Plant just to find some- one who will employ him. Good luck. 1111

Talk about spelling, Erma takes the cake! She was our champion speller this year and bravely defended our cause at the Peirce School. Although Erma is not musically or poetically inclined, she is very fond of athletics. She played on the Senior basketball team, but her light shown brightest on the track team. Erma is a Jolly good fellow and equally liked by both sexes but we do not know of any preference among the opposite sex in this school. How- ever, that is confined strictly to this school. Ask her why she liked the boat trip best. Maybe she will show you a much treasured BERYL E. HARVEY Lansdale, Pa.

Because of her jolly disposition she has a host of friends. Her popularity with the opposite sex is noticeable, as Beryl is a wonderful pal. Although she is fond of athletics, Beryl took part in few sports but spent 'most of her time in supporting the various teams. Beryl has obtained the.honor of being one of the most illustrious members of the Commer- cial Course, and some day you will be sur- prised at the wonders she will accomplish as Somebody's Stenog.
