Did you ever enter the 'il3eehive and find a very attractive young lass entertaining: her friends by imitat- ing: her many boy acquaintances? Well-she just loves tln-mi and leaves them. Even our own home talent cau't make the grade. This damsel is Putlge, widely known as Violet Bergzey. Violet has been with us since piatails were in style, and has proved to be an asset. During her earlier years in school she took to sports. later she was elected as manager of baseball in which she proved to have very ellicient ability. 'll'11due has recently found there is a kick to driving a car. Cf course, there must be a catch to it. We think she is just trying to Cop another masculine specimen. Putting all joking aside, Violet is a line friend and has many friends to ber credit. Whatever she intends to do in later years, we know she'll do it well. Page Ninrlcen

WILMER W. ANDERS Smokey Lansdale, Pa.-january 24, l9l7 Track Q3-fl-l: Cross-country MJ. Perhaps it's the energy he saves in silent conduct during classes that has afforded Wilmer a place among the distance runners on the track loam: for last fall HSlll0iiCY., distinguished himself in cross-country and now holds a berth as a miler. One who closely associates with him will soon notice that one of his chief traits is that of always trying, as is indicated hy his report card and his record on the cinder path. Although Wilmer, who has seen all his school years in Lansdale, has not yet decided what be will do after graduating, we wish him plenty of luck in whatever work he takes up. GERALDINE K.

She skipped one of her enrlier grades to join the group now known as '635 . She is one ol the quiet girls and few beyond her own circle know what a good sport she is.

Among our friends is one who came to us from Challont to begin his high school training. He gets along with everybody and is a good sport. Piv usually has something to do while the rest of us are playing, so he coulcln't get around to sports. We think he would have been a good athlete. He likes girls from a distance except on bus-rides, which are the 'ispicev of his life. Bord has hopes of becoming an engineer in that new and promising field, Diesel engines. With his perseverance and hard work we think he will be a good one. TINDINO BONANNI Banana Lansdale, Pa.-August 6, l9l7 Football C313 Track f3lg Cross Country MQ.
