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

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.

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 0 HARRY E. SPROGELL Lansdale, Pa. Born December 5, 1911 ROBERT HAMILTON SLOAN cHB0bNJ Lansdale, Pa. Born September 6, 1910 Slow and steady wins the prize. French Club 12-313 English Club 1315 Orchestra 131. After various peregrinations about the schools of Lansdale, with a side trip to Staun- ton Military Academy, this infant Paderewski finally cast his lot with the class of '28 in the Junior year. Since then he has been on the class roll, much to the despair of the treas- urers, whose duty it has been to pry his class dues from him. Unfortunately, he has not mingled very much with the other students and is not so well-known as he might be. As implied above, Bob is an expert musi- cian, but he has not stooped to display. his talent to the students of the high school. Every day he practices vigorously, variedly, and viciously. Robert intends to follow the footsteps of Paderewski, Moskowski, Pachmann, Rach- maninoff, Tschaikowsky, and Hoffman. The name Sloan seems out of place in this catalog of jaw-breakers, but we suggest that Bob cultivate a musician's hair-cut, and adopt an alias. We wish him all the luck in the world, hammering out harmonies on his Ivers and Pond piano. And ah, for a man to rise in fme, - . That the man I am may cease to be.

Harry is one of the charter members of our class having been with us ever since the first When the call for band candidates was issued Harry responded and now the band would sound hollow and weak without the strange weird squeaks issuing from his Harry has been one of our best debaters for the last two years. His sarcastic and con- vincing arguments, which he used to good ad- vantage were developed in the classrooms of Lansdale High School, much to the dismay of the teachers. Harry intends to 'go 'to Swarthmore next year to study law. We know he will make a good lawyer. Here's to your success. E221
