Dreamboat CARROLL E. REED Industrial Arts Littlestown, Pa. R. D. 1 Band 1, 2, 3, 45 Basketball 3, 4: Baseball 3, 4: Orchestra 45 Soccer 45 Athletic Club 35 County Band 3, 45 Athletic Association 4. An optomist-yes, every class has them and ours is Car- roll-carefree, not a trouble-that's he. Easy going may rate high on his list of characteristics, but spunk is way up there too as he has proven in his excellent soccer performance as half- back. What did he care for kicks and bruises as long as he could keep the ball going down the field? Dreamboat d1dn't show much interest in the opposite sex until this year but now he's certainly gone to town--every town. A gal in every sur- rounding community-that's Reed's motto. Here's hoping he carries his success in getting acquainted with the lassies into life and really makes his career superb! Dolly DOROTHY L. REINDOLLAR Commercial 57 Crouse Park Littlestown, Pa. Library Club 3, 4, Student Librarian 4: Glee Club 2, 4. Noise, noise everywhere, no one to stop it anywhere. This applies to everyone in study hall except Dorothy but we can't ever blame her for getting us into trouble. She is a very quiet and studious person with a smile and a hello for everyone. This year she proved to all that she was a good sport for any girl who can stand up to a mouse and not complain deserves an applause. Her favorite hobby is reading-one book right after another-also doing her French lesson. Dolly's future looks bright and happy leaning toward the business world. We feel sure her employer will never fret over her work. Best wishes! Marne J. MARVIN ROBERTS Commercial 69 N. Queen Street Littlestown, Pa. Operetta 15 Camera Club 3g Athletic Club 4. After four years of L. H. S. with Marve he grows on you, He is one of the most affable chaps in the senior class, and is always neat and well groomed usually preferring bright colors, sometimes loud socks that almost talk. Marve is always polite to everyone and in study hall he always seemed to be working on one of those mysterious looking office practice books. If, in the future, Marvin should make office work a permanent vocation, we can be sure he willnbe an asset in what- ever he chooses to do. We won't need to wish him good luck, we know he'1l have it.

H. S. Quartette 1, 2, 3, 4. We hear music in the air! Richard's boys are beating out the latest jive numbers with Bob on the horn. Maybe you saw him in there fighting in some of the toughest basketball games or was it on stage in any number of plays? just take a look at that list of activities-he has been in practically everything that L. H. S. offers and he hasn't dcne too bad in his studies. Bob is also noted for his tenor voice which has sounded out above everyone else in Glee Club and the Operettas. Bob's night life is spent with a certain little brown haired girl named Shirley. We wonder what will happen when they go away to different colleges. For a long time he wanted to be a civil en- gineer but now it seems he has changed his mind. However, he is still mechanically minded and we say, Go to it, Bob. Twenty-one

Ruthie RUTH E. MYERS Commercial Littlgtcbwn, Pa. . . 1 Glee Club 2, 4: Library Club 3, 4: Littonian Echo Typist 4: Class Treas- urer 1. 2, 3, 4: Library Club President 3, 4: Operetta 1: Athletic Association 4. Where's Ruthie ? Oh, there she is behind the candy case selling candy for all she's worth! Ruth happens to be one of the smallest girls in her class. In her junior year, her neat dress and personality aided her in winning the title of Miss ,Iune Allyson of L. H. S. She has also proved efficient as class treasurer during her four years at L. H. S. and has been successful in her secretarial work for Mrs. Walker. Not only is she sharp in French but she can beat out a mean tune on her typewriter as well. Ruthie may your happy smile cheer others as it has cheered us. Mats MADALINE C. PLUNKERT Academic Littlfftgvni Pa. Basketball 2, 3, 4: Volley Ball 3: Band 1: Student Librarian 2, 3, 4: Senior Play 4: Operetta 1, 2, 3, 4: Typing Club 3, 4: Glee Club 2, 3, 4: Athletic As- sociation 4: Monogram Club 3. Did you hear that giggle at the other end of the hall? Well, you can be pretty sure it was Matsy, the happy-go-lucky of the senior class. She is well liked by everyone and is usually seen with a certain other senior girl. If Mats is not seen at the Rainbow, she can probably be found driving her '37 Chevie to Haines. She has participated in a number of activities but her chief interest was basketball. Mats can also look on the serious side of life and her ambition is to be a nurse. We feel sure that Matsy will have little trouble preparing for this pro- fession and best wishes are extended in her endeavors. Abie EARL A. REBERT Industrial Arts 210 M Street Littlestown, Pa. Basketball Manager 3, 4: Baseball 2, 3, 4: Operetta 2: Glee Club 2, 3, 4: Soccer 4: County Chorus 4: Home Ec. Club 3, 4. Do you want to know anything about a tractor? If you do, just ask Abe who knows about the gadgets on a Farmall. Abie has been a super manager of the Thunderbolt basketball team and helped to bring in those points in the intramural bask- etball games. He could always be seen working away right before a play hurrying to get the scenery done on time. In fact thats' about the only time we saw him hurry because he usually takes life very calmly especially getting up early in the morn- ing. Abie is one of the students to whom the adviser dropped a few reminders to be on time. The class of '47 sends him on with best wishes. Johnny JOHN A. REBERT Commercial Littlgtown, Pa. . D. 1 Class Oflicer Csecretaryl 1, fpresidentj 2, 3: Operetta 1, 4: Dramatic Club 2, 3: Business Manager of Littonian 4: Camera Club 4: Glee Club 2, 3, 4. This blonde senior who wears the red coat that clashes with a certain female's in the junior class and a guy who has a kind word for everybody is our Johnny. During his fresh- man and sophomore year he was somewhat quiet and easy going but man the last two years found Johnny every- where. He is the fellow who made the Commercial Room sound like a machine gun nest and who can type faster than Iturbi could play Polonaise in A Hat. John has a way of making friends and is popular with every one as we observed during the noon hour when he had a flock of females around him. Johnny plans to attend Shippensburg to prepare for teaching. We know he will be a great success and he deserves it! Twenty

Bud CLARENCE L. SCHWARTZ, JR. Academic 46 N. Queen Street Littlestown, Pa. Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4g Baseball 1, 2, 3, 43 Operetta 1, 2, 3, 45 High School Play 3, Band 3, 4: Monogram Club 33 Orchestra 4: Soccer 4: Glee Club 2, 3, 4: L. S. Quartet 1, 2, 3, 43 County Band 3, 4: County Chorus 3, 4: Athletic Association 4. . I We always knew Bud was around if we heard a smooth baritone voice sounding out above all the noise that might be in study hall after the teacher walked out. With this voice he has really made a name for himself in operettas and the For- senic Contest. Many times you have seen him in his sleek Chevie speeding toward Two Taverns to pick up his Pug and bring her to the basketball game or other school doings. Bud was one of the top hoop scorers in the county and played a good game as center on the Thunderbolts' team. Other sports are tops with him and he'd like to go South to a baseball school, then into the big leagues. Our best wishes go with him in his attempts. Count Basie HERBERT J. SELL Academic 26 E. King Street ' Littlestown, Pa. Basketball 2: Baseball 4: Operetta 4: Band 1, 2, 3, 4: Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4: Athletic Association 45 Dramatic Club 2, 35 Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 4. Perhaps you have seen Herb leading a snappy dance band which many people enjoy or maybe just playing the piano for a group of friends. On days when he didn't have to go to school you could find him helping his dad with wallpapering. He has shown us that he can do this job well and always seems to enjoy such work but music still reigns as his profession. The Count has been a fine classmate and always willing to help a friend. We hope that sometime soon he can get his orchestra's nanae in lights. The class of '47 wishes him all the luck he'll nee . Needie ONEIDA M. SNYDER Commercial Littlgtcbwrg Pa. Class Officer 4: Operetta 2, 3, 49 Student Librarian 3, 4: High School Play 4: Senior Play 4: Glee Club 2, 3, 45 County Chorus 3, 49 Dramatic Club 3: Camera Club 49 Athletic Association QSecretaryl 4: Softball 3. Listen, who's that in the center of the crowd laughing as if she'l1 split a couple of ribs? That's right, it's that Snyder kid whose personality certainly added much to the class since she enrolled in L. H. S. during the freshman year. Any place where there was noise and a gay time you'd be sure to find Needie for she's ready to do anything from taking a 'fleavef' from school to scaring meek little girls by putting mice in their lockers. But she is interested in work too for around 8:15 you could almost always be sure to find her in 104, going over her French. Truthfully Neeide is one swell girl and even 'though she's vague about her future we know as sure as shoot1n she will succeed. Polly PAULINE L. SPALDING Vocational Home Ec. 21 Centennial Avenue Hanover, Pa. Band 1, 2, 3, 45 Orchestra 1, 2, 3: Typing Club 4g Dramatic Club 33 Glee Club 2, 3, 45 Operetta 1, 2, 3, 45 F. H. A. 4 CVice Presidentli Athletic Associa- tion 4. Nine A. M., a banging of Locker 139 and we know that Polly has arrived. This lass hails from Hanover and can be seen at Liggetts Drug Store over the week-ends. Polly is one of the happy-go-lucky girls of our class and because of her five feet, eight she has been a swell guard in interclass basketball games. She has been a regular member of the L. H. iS. band for the past four years and has done a splendid job tootmg her alto horn. Her ambition is to become a dress designer and the class of '47 hopes she'l1 run a good act. Twenty-two
