HARRY ADRIAN McCLURK, Jr. Adc Although Adc hopes to 1) a naval officer some day, he is one person who doesn’t need a uni form and brass buttons to make” a girl. Whenever we see him, we usually see at least one admiring maiden (she frequently has red hair). Well. Ade, here’s hoping your ship comes home loaded with good luck. Football (4); Track (4). HUGH BERNARD McQUAIDF. Mac There is a certain type of pupil, which is hard to find in the Lansdowne Senior class. This type is the quiet, subdued yet well-liked type. Hugh Mc-Quaide is a real representative of this type. Hugh also play a mean game of football, that’s where that big L” on his sweater came from. Football (2. 3, 4): Senior Dance. FRANCIS WILLIAM Me INTIRE Mack Alabama Mack hails from Morton, but he has overcome that handicap. His sparkling wit is often in evidence, and we rarely see him without a smile. His arguments with Walter Roe in the homeroom have helped to speed those dreary minutes before the lunch bell. Basketball (3) ; Track (3) : Glee Club (3, 4). DICK D. MENDHAM Dick Here’s a boy who hails from good old East Lansdowne. Although Dick has not participated in many school activities, he is known as the fellow who can get more people into trouble by making them laugh in the class room than anyone else. The most unusual thing is that he himself never gets caught. Golf (2); Track (2, 3). ELMER McNUTT “Pete” P » Pete,” being one of our class wits, is always the center of a laughing crowd. I f he has no jokes to tell, he will obligingly improvise a few rhythms on his ever-present harmonica. We envy you your good humor. “Pete, and hope you will continue to cheer others as you have us. Math Club (3. 4); Surveying Club (3. 4) : Stage Crew (2): Airplane Club; Freshman Junior Partv (entertainment) (1. 4). ROBERT W. MILLER Miller Univ, of Pcnna. Bob is one of the gifted members of the class. His ingenuity tends towards the making of astronomical telescopes, which we know will repay him in the future. His wise-cracks and pranks in home-room sometimes make us wonder if he’ll ever grow up—but anyway, here’s luck to our future astronomer! Student Council representative (1 ) ; Surveying Club (4) : Math Club (3, 4) ; Photography Club (3, 4). -4 27 ►-

I AX GRANT MacDOUGALT. Scotty Scotty has been with us only one year. Anyone who recall his pocket clarinet’s shrill clamor at the basketball game' will realize what an addition he has made to the class. Always happy, and full of fun, our sole regret is that he failed to put in an appearance until our senior year. Math Club (4) ; Golf (4) : Band (4) : Boys’ Glee Club (4). ELEANOR DISBROYV MALLORY Bobbie Temple Eleanor’s athletic abilities arc well-known—a hockey letter indicates her prowess. She is a cheery little person, seemingly quiet—except when she is with a certain stalwart member of the male sex—which, by the way, is most of the time. Bobbie is certainly a good sport— no one can help liking her. Hockey (2, 3, 4) ; Basketball (3, 4): Dance Committee (2 4): Class basketball (1, 2): Class Volley Ball (1. 2). IRENE THOMSON MacDOUGALL Renee Hood College The longer we know “Renee” the better we like her. Although she has attended L. H. S. for only one year, we have found her to be a splendid pal. If you are under the impression that she is a very, very quiet little girl, ask her to tell you alx ut Craton-on-the-11 udson. Dramatics (4). EVELYN FRANCES MARX Erie Business Evelyn is very versatile, for her talents range from typing to animal training. The most outstanding characteristic of Ev is her enviable nonchalance Her favorite indoor sport if sleeping. Have you ever noticed her yawning on Monday mornings? Some day. when she has caught up on her sleep, we expect to see her name in the headlines as the founder of a home for stray cats. Lahian typist (4). ELIZABETH BELL MacDOWELL Betty Miss I liman’s Betty’s quiet, unobtrusive nature has won her many friends. Because of her quietness, she is kept out of the limelight sometimes. However, we all know that when Betty does say something, it is worthwhile. She expects to be another “school inarm.” and we know she will be a successful one. Dramatic Club (2, 3, 4). ROSE MARY MASSIMO Stenographer Slim, petite, and smiling arc very appropriate words when applied to Rose. She may be small, but she has proved herself a very important part of our class. Rose is not as quiet as she appears—she has as much pep (especially for dancing) as anyone when occasion demands it.

JAMES MOTR Jim New York University W hat is it tint Ji.rimy’s pot. That n akes everyone think he’s so hot ? The answer is that Jimmy was voted the best looking boy in the senior class. Likewise, he was also a good supporter of the football team. In summarizing, we find that Jimmy is a success, by foot or looks. Football (2. 3, 4); Math (4); Dance Committee (4); Hand (1, 2). VIRGINIA FISHER MULLIKIN Ginnie “Ginnie,” the exchange manager of the Garnet and Gray, is noted as one of Miss Downey’s best little songsters. We have often admired and wondered at that West Chester class ring! He probably is th driver of that Plymouth. Ah, these mysteries! Garnet and Gray (4); Math Club (4) ; Girls’ Chorus (2. 3, 4); Mixed Chorus (3, 4). EDMUND R. MOORE 1 crme Here is the double of the famous balloonist. Professor Piccard. Some think Edmund even went up in the air with the Professeur, for he hasn’t been the same since. During school hours, Ed is very quiet, but on the athletic field, he again becomes high-minded. ( He’s a high jumper.) Track (1, 2, 3, 4). ELSIE MUTII Els In this corner, we have a peppy, little redhead named Elsie. W hat an aide to East I-ansdowne when Elsie joined the ranks ! 1 lere’s a girl who would rather dance than eat. Xo wonder that she’s so slender ! And is she a good basketball player? Class team, every year. Hccbey Class (2): Basketball Class (2, 3, 4); Track (2); Drama Club, Chorus (1). FLORENCE F. MORTON Pete Secretary Florence is practically tlu most efficient girl in the Commercial Department. Just ask Mr. Christ. She has been on the Student Council, a monitor, and has l een honored in a number of other ways. Perhaps she is a little quiet and subdued, but Florence always has a cheerful smile for every one. Student Council (1); Corresponding Secretary in Council (4): Handbook Committee (4): Lahian staff (4); Freshman Party Committee (1) ; Ring Committee (4); Monitor (3. 4) ; National Honor Society (4). EUGENE D. PARSONS ' Pa rsni ck” P ittsbu rgh Here we have a person who has come all the way from the “smoky” city to attend I-ans-downe. Even though most of the seniors do not know him, they can easily get a recommendation of his fine character from his intimate friends, for “Dal” is the right kind of a fellow. Football (4); Baseball (3, 4); Track (1). -h§( 28 )• -
