DONALD ALLEN A wiry-haired hoy with an unaccounted for scar and a fun-loving dis position is Donnie, formerly of I.ans-downe, recently of Penn Charter, and once more of Lansdowne. His secret passion is Miss Cook’s Latin; Donnie’s the spice of the class of “’34”. Basketball (1, 3, 4). Student Council (1). Math Gub (4). Monitor (3). JANE ELIZABETH ANDREWS One of the members of that famous duet. “Bertram and Andrews”. “Andy” is noted for her “peppy” disposition. She handles her Ford very well, and possesses excellent skill in sewing. Why does she like the song “Jimmy Had a Nickel”? Could it be the name? Class Basketball (2). Golf (3). Assistant Librarian 2». Dance Committees (2, 3.). ANITA MARIE BAER Who is that giggling in the halls? Without any trouble we pick out Anita. She is a great sport, a good friend, and to add to her fame, she is a commuter .... from Springfield. Dance Committees (2. 3). FRED BARFOD Yes, Fred has been a “ladies’ man” as far back as we can remember. In spite of this, he has always been a “shining light” in his studies, and has never flunked a subject. Fred’s weakness was writing notes, until a “flame” entered his life. Basketball (1, 2, 3 . Baseball 2, 3, 4». Surveying Club (3t. Dramatics (4). HERBERT GARBER BENKERT Herb was unequalled as a guard on the football team two years ago and this year turned his brawny muscles to the noble art of scene shifting. Always jolly and joking, there is always a twinkle in his eye, even behind those blinders. Football (2, 3, 4). Track (2, 3, 4 . Aviation Club (2). Stage Crew (4i. ELINORE M. ANDREAS One of the most versatile and efficient of our “stenogs”. This little girl can type faster than she can talk; in fact, she can do almost anything equally well, even to acting in our plays. Her weakness is red finger-nail polish, and how Mr. Christ does love it! Garnet and Gray (4). Dramatics (2, 3, 4). National Honor Society (4). HENRY MONYHAN APPLEGATE. Jr, “Jim” is one of those strong and silent (?) men. He is a man of three hobbies: football, sleep, and a certain black-eyed senior. Oh, and another weakness! Who ever saw Jim hurry? No, we thought not; haste doesn’t seem to agree with him. Football (2, 3. 4). Basketball (2). Class Basketball (1, 3, 4). Track (3, 4). Dance Committees (1. 2. 4). MARY AUBREY BANKER Why can Audrey win the jump as center in basketball? Why do her drives in tennis spin across the net and refuse to be returned? Why is she one of the best rooters at games? Because she is tall—and uses her tallness. Basketball (3, 4). Tennis (3, 4). Junior-Freshman Partv (3). Orchestra (1, 2, 3, 4). ROBERT LAUER BARTLESON Bob’s interesting character has played an important part in our class history. His musical ability has furnished us much entertainment. As for the girls. Bob’s novel of romance has so many chapters, we wonder .... will it ever end? Baseball (2, 3, 4). Manager (4). Track (1. 2). Soccer (3. 4). Band (1, 2. 3, 4). Surveying Club (3). Dance Committee (4). Math Club (3, 4). Monitor (3, 4). CLARA ELLEN BENTON Clara is one of the peppiest girls of our class. That’s the reason she ha9 so many friends of both sexes. How that smile and those eyes can draw the males! Clara’s affections, so we have heard, have been won by a gentleman from Delaware. Basketball (1). Chorus (1. 2, 3). Dance Committee (3). 16

MARGUERITE HELEN BERTRAM Margie is one of the pleasantest girls in our class, an excellent student, a good dancer, and one of the most efficient typists the Lahian has ever had. She deserves a medal for typing all the write-ups for the year book. Golf (3). Garnet and Gray (4). Lahian (4). Chorus (1, 2. 3). Assistant Librarian (2). Dance Committees (1. 3). KENNETH PRICE BLACKBURN Meet Pud, he’s only a little fellow, hut .... Everyone knows him for his famous imitations. Pud is also a star athlete, one of the mainstays of our victorious (if we hadn’t been gypped) senior basketball team. He is a good fellow anti don’t forget. Pud, “Great oaks . . . .’’. Basketball (2). Class Basketball (1. 2. 3. 4). Band (1, 2). WALTER S. BOBB Walter is one of our silent, stern young men. Some people are inclined to think that he is very reserved, hut that is just until they know him. When we see Walter, there is always a fair maiden by his side: this the characteristic of his “crowd”. Chess Club (2). Math Club (4). Band (1. 2, 3, 4). JOHN C. BRITTON Here’s a young man who boasts great skill in three professions: auctioneering, salesmanship, and unfathomable magic. Though it may not be magic, he certainly knows the formula of love. We’re glad to find such a prominent figure in our class history. Vice-President of class (1). Garnet and Gray (3). Dramatics 2. 4). Chairman of Junior Prom (3). MARION LAURA Bl RDSALL Our star athlete, no one can rival “Mar” when it comes to girls’ sports! As its captain and center forward, she was the mainstay of the hockey team. As for basketball, first she was half of the “Mil-Mar” forward combination, then she stood alone as our tip-top forward. Hockey (2. 3, 4). Basketball (1. 2, 3, 4l. Volley Ball (2, 3). JOHN LONGCOPE BIRKINBINE Meet the school-league-famous ar-guer. The debating team couldn’t have gotten along without Birk’s (pronounced Burke’s' rebuttals, and the seniors couldn’t have gotten along without the relief of his occasional tearing down of teachers’ points in class. Basketball (4). Tennis 4). Stamp Club (3, 4). Math Club (4). Chess Club (4). Sophomore Hop Committee (2). Debating (3, 4). Monitor (4). NINA BITLER A new addition to our class is Nina, who hails from the warmer climes. Although she’s been with us only a year, the girls -and the boys—have found the charm in her soft drawl. A sight familiar to all Lansdowne students is Nina in her tan terraplane. Senior Dance (4). BERNICE C. BRISBANE Have you met Bernice? If you haven’t, you have missed making a very good friend. Although she is very quiet and retiring, she is one of the most generous and thoughtful girls in our class. Don’t miss her! DOROTHY ELIZABETH BROWN Pretty, popular, ami versatile. Dot is known and liked by all. She is equally capable as manager of the tennis team or member of the Lahian staff. You have probably seen her chasing after someone for her money for a hockey picture. Class Basketball (2). Tennis (3, 4). Manager (4). Laiiian 1. 2. 3. 4). Garnet and Gray 4 . HAZEL CANNON Hazel is always known by her smart clothes and lovely, wavy, blonde hair. She is well liked by all her classmates because of her cheery disposition. There is a certain Bud who seems to like that disposition pretty well, too. How about him. Hazel? Student Council 1). Assistant Librarian (3). Dance Committee (4).
