DONALD BRICKLEY CHURCHMAN “Don” “Don” is the “new” hoy who lias made his home in Miss Cook’s room. If you have not been eutting assembly too frequently, you have probably been entertained by bis playing. How that boy can “tickle the ivory.” Remember tin Math Club movies, when Donald did bis stuff at the piano? Although “Don” lias only been with us one year be leaves as one of us. Math Club (4). ALBERTA LORENE BRECKENRIDGE “Bert” “Bert” is another of the fairer sex who blew into the senior class, not as a senior but as a post-grad. She comes from the wilds of Tuckerton. In spite of that, however, she easily wove her way into the noble senior class. “Bert” doesn’t blush much, but if you crave to see her do so, just mention the name of a certain handsome Philadelphian. Here’s luck, “Bert”! CHARLES H. CLARK “Charlie” Penn State We don’t often hear from this dark-haired fellow, but sometimes he makes you sit up and take notice. When you hear him coming in that “car” of his, our advice is to jump for the curb, and jump quick. “Charlie” is always busy working ?) in room H ask Miss Baker, she knows. Never mind, “Charlie,” we know Penn State will be lucky when she gets you. CHARLES CLOUKEY “Cloukey” Haverpord Charles is the sage of the class of 1930, and we all wonder what the teachers would do without him. He has already become famous by having some of his stories published in magazines. None of us could guess what would happen if a teacher said to him, “No, Charles, that is wrong.” (’diaries is very cpiiet, but when you know him you find that he has a good sense of humor and is very clever. He and Einstein will probably be classed together regarding his fourth dimension. Best of luck, Charles. Student Council (4). Garnet and Gray (2). Class Prophet (4). Band (3,4). Orchestra (3,4).

LYTLE CODDINGTON BOWERS “Shorty” Episcopal Academy Lytle Bowers, known to all and sundry as “Shorty.” As he is not short, one wonders whence the “Shorty.” This is how the story came about, children: Once upon a time sonic-body called him “Little” instead of ahove-said Lytle. So, after being called “Little” for many a year, the name came to be “Shorty.” Hence, dear readers, he runneth under “le nom-de-plume” (French for nickname). “Shorty,” besides this, has three nice sisters, and a fine record in track work. Lytle is one of the best-liked fellows in school. He is not only liked by the fellows, hut how them goils fall for his coils! Football (3, 4). Basketball (3). Track (3, 4). Student Council (3,4). Biology Club (3). Track Club (3, 4). Junior Dance Committee. JULIANNA BOWERS “Judy” Miss Illman’s “Judy” is one of the beauties of the class, as anyone can see by her picture. She is active in hockey, basketball, and track, hut always gets the tough breaks. No one who has ever seen her high jump will forget it. “Judy” is the main attraction for a certain tall young man in Miss Hoopes’ room, and the corridor at noon will feel lonely without them. Lots of luck, “Judy.” Hockey (1, 3, 4). Basketball 1, 3, 4). Track (1, 2, 3, 4, Captain 4). Math Club (3). Sec. “X” Club Treasurer (3). Glee Club (1, 2 ). MARGARETTA BOYD “Marly” Wan am akkr’s Institute Here is “Margy,” our man-hater, until lately. She is rather quiet, hut when you get to know her, you are surprised how peppy she really is. Hockey, basketball and track are her pastimes. “Margy” is the best friend anyone could have and her many friends wish her success in whatever she does in the future. Basketball Class Team (1. 2, 3). Hockey Squad (4). General Math Club (3). Track (4). Basketball Squad (4). CHARLES RICHARD BROWN “Dick” Penn Here he conies, the one and only “Dick” Brown. Ever see Brown of Lansdowne stick ’em in the basket? Well, it goes like this: “Dick’s” been the main support of the basketball team for three years, and the hero of three suburban championships. When better shots are made “Dick” will make them; hut we’re rather skeptical of that. Among other things, this shining light plays baseball and tennis, and coaxes good marks out of Miss Cook. We almost forgot to mention “Mrs. Brown.” Ever see “Dick” and Mig at a dance? Well, you’ve missed something. Best of luck, “Dick”; but watch that heart. Basketball (1, 2, 3, 4). Baseball (1, 2, 4).

ROBERT JOHN CORNFIELD “Bob” Gettysburg “Boh” Cornfield lias been in lliis class for a number of years and has distinguished himself in many ways. He has won letters in baseball, tennis, and basketball. This year he played guard on the championship team which cleaned up all but four of their games. “Bob” is chairman of the Dance Committee this year. He is a fairly brilliant student but doesn't overtax himself. He is planning on continuing his studies at Gettysburg College. Basketball (3, 4). Baseball (2). Tennis (1, 2, 3, 4). Lahian Staff (4). Junior Dance Committee. Senior Dance Committee (Chairman). Class Ring Committee (2). MATILDA BRITTON “Tilllie” Business College Did you ever notice that little mite traveling down the hall at eighty miles an hour? Well, that is “Tillie.” She has to travel at that rate to be on time. She generally has to “get a note.” She has a special interest in roadsters. At any rate Chrysler roadsters aren’t at all bad. She’s a good little girl. This information came to us through a true and false test given by a classmate. Do we all agree? Commercial Club (3, 4). Orchestra (3, 4). KATHRYN LOUISE CAPATOSTO “Kay” Academy of Fine Arts “Kay” breezed into our class in the eighth grade. This addition to our class was like “casting sunlight over the gloom.” Everyone has enjoyed “Kay’s” company, as she is a girl who is very peppy and is always laughing. For those who don’t know her, she is tall and dark, with that never-to-be-forgotten giggle that rends the silence of Assembly. “Kay” is quite an accomplished artist who intends to go to the Academy of Fine Arts. We know that she will be a big success and wish ber all the luck in the world. Glee Club (1, 2). Commercial Club (3). Travel Club (2). HOWARD WILSON CORNOG “Bus” Penn State Here we have it, H. W. C. It took “Bus” three years to make the varsity in football, and ibis season he broke through with many a touchdown. Also, last year, he decided that he didn’t like baseball, so he came out for track, and made a letter. This is the fellow we like. “Bus” has a tremendous interest in aeronautics, so we cannot tell where he’ll go to college. But he’ll probably end up at a good college Penn State. Treasurer (3 .
