Who never heard of him? Who never spoke to him? Who doesn't know him? Absolutely no one. Was there ever any activity in the school which Deacon Morris wasn't in? Was there any plan or idea which the Deacon didn't help to carry out? Absolutely none. Sometimes we of the Senior Class wonder how it is that the Deacon can be in so many scholastic activities and still keep up his standard as a scholar. Vice President of the Student Council, Base- ball Manager, President of the Literary So- ciety, Literary Editor of the TALISMAN3 Alternate on the Debating Team, member of the Spelling Team, a member of the Senior Play, in one year. Last, but not least, Presi- dent of the Senior Class. All that remains now that is 'of great moment is for the Senior Class of next year to decide who will run their business for them. There won't be any Morris to do it, and Eve Should like to know how else it's going to e one. EUNICE E. PROUSE 'Chalfont, Pa. Born October 14, 1910 To love or not to love- That is the question. Latin' Club 1113 Treasurer Biology Club 1213 Reading Club 1313 La Societe Francaise 1413 High School Play 12, 3, 413 Glee Club 141- Eunicejoined our class in the freshman year, a bashful little girl from Chalfont, but it did not take long for her to become acquainted with us. Now she is one of the most popular girls in our class. Did we say our class? Well, let us add that her popularity is not con- fined to the Senior Class alone, but also to a certain person in the Junior Class. If you are interested concerning that Junior's identity, consult the Junior President. Eunie is very fond of music. She plays the piano very well, and, although she does not play any band instrument, she is very much interested in a Horn, Eunice expects to attend college next yearg and, although she is uncertain of her future work, nevertheless, we feel confident that she will continue to be popular in whatever she undertakes. Good luck and best wishes to you always, Eunice. i201

THE TALISMAN GEORGE WOODWARD LEACH cuBudnJ Lansdale, Pa. Born October 10, 1908 Basketball 11, 2, 3, 415 Captain 12, 415 Manager 1315 Football 11, 2, 3, 415 Captain 1415 Baseball 12, 3, 415 Captain 1315 Track 12, 3, 415 Vice President Class 12, 315 Senior Play 1415 Junior-Senior Play 1315 High School Play 12, 3, 415 Glee Club 12, 31. Bud is one of the best athletes of the school. He is an all around star, having achieved honor in all four of the major sports. Bud has a fiery temper, and the saying is that When Leach gets mad the dirt flies. Bud played center on the football team, guard on the basketball team, pitched on the baseball team, and was our miler on the track team. Of course, the athletic field is not Bud's only field of achievement. Wild tales are told of his exploits in the field of love, and we have a faint suspicion that this is why he spends so much of his time in Montgomeryville. We feared, after our annual conquest of the capitol, that another town would enter his field, but, as yet, there is no definite development. However, time will tell. Bud says that work is his place when he leaves school. Whether or not he will sling bread or balls we can't tell, but, whatever he does, we are assured that success will be his reward. ' R-a-y, Bud, DORIS LOMAN Lansdale, Pa. Born August 10, 1911 'Cause I's wicked-I is. I's mighty wicked, anyhow I can't help it. Latin Club 1115 Biology Club 1215 Reading Club 12-315 Spanish Club 1315 High School Play 13-415 Glee Club 1415 Special Chorus 141 5 Art Club 141 5 Class Song. v Doris is a charter member of our class, hav- ing been with us ever since she entered school. She is very popular, having friends of both sexes. She is very well adapted along the lines of music. She plays the piano and sings very well. Her ability as an actress became evident when she took a leading part in the high school play for two years. Her favorite pastime is eating and drawing caricatures. She is very humorous and enjoys writing poetry. Give Doris something to eat, a piece of paper, and a pencil, and she will be satisfied. Her favorite expression is, Do you have anything to eat? Doris expects to enter Syracuse University next fall and study a course in art. She is determined to be a famous artist, and she says that we shall be proud to have her name written in our autograph albums. So here's luck to Doris and her art. l19l

Tom is one of Lansdale High's athletes, but here again he owes all his ability to the fair sex, for we know that he received all his training running back and forth from his home to a little double house about three blocks away. Nevertheless, Tom is also something of a student. Proof of this lies in the fact that Mr. Boughter has often requested his pres- ence and-absence. Tom is thinking of becoming a dentist. We wish him all possible luck, and may his slogan be- Bigger and Better Cavities. She seldom thinks of anythinguith more earnestness than she does of dinner.

' , Carolyn registered here in Lansdale with the rest of us. We sometimes doubt about the uregistering. From a quiet girl with long curls she has passed through all the stages of colffures and has returned to long tresses rininus the curls. She is one of the most popu ar gir s in our class. She is willing to do most anything for you and keep her B1ll. Take it from us, she's right there. All of Carolyn's interest in athletics did not expire in 1926, for since then she has taken an active part in basketball. She is also fond of swimming and riding. In Washington, Carolyn made frequent visits to the Willard Hotel. She has drawn the conclusion that the name means every- thing. Carolyn is going to take a trip to EETODB this sunimer, and we know she'll make a it in aris. on voyage. She is not sure of her career, but we know it will lbe an interesting one. Best wishes, Caro yn. 1211
