Joseph Salvadore Sorace General Huntingdon Valley A fellow who ranks high scholastically and yet is a true live wire when there is mention of class activity usually finds a real welcome in any crowd. Pasquale, with his contagious grin, was certainly a welcome member in our crowd and school. Joe found special enjoyment in soccer and football, but put forth most of his energy in the Safety, Science, Home Economics, and Glee Clubs. .Toe has set his next goal as graduation from The Williamson School of Mechanical Trades. Those of us who know J'oe's intense interest in all things mechanical, his seriousness of purpose, and his scholastic ability are sure that his goal will be achieved and that Joe will go on always to bigger and better things. We say, Here's to a good fellow! Joan Elinor Spierling Commercial Trevose Heights A real sense of humor, a friendly attitude towards all. and an initiative which is all her own are all a part of Squirrely's pleasing personality. She played hard and with good sportsmanship in intramural basketball and baseball, was a member of the Glee and Safety Clubs, and proved one of our most efficient, and dependable workers on many of our class committees--mainly as one of our play prompters. Her special fancies are sports and dancing plus typing for our Lion's Roar--with the speed and accuracy she shows in most of her work. Squirrely can't stand exams and the preparation before, but is determined to become a good private secretary. Everything points to fulfillment of that ambition. David Leonard Swanson General Trevose Dave, better knovm as Redman , has a good sense of humor and shows everyone that what's usually said about red heads is not true. He served as a loyal and hard-working teammate on the varsity football team and also in all the class sports. Science and Hi-Y Clubs were a few of his activities. Dave has many likes and interests, but his favorite is the fair sex. Dave was always ready for a good laugh, but not so ready for home-work. fwell--who is!J Harry .B. Swanson General Trevose Even though Wobb insists he has been counting the days until graduation, we think he'll really miss school--and us--and we know we'll miss his unexpected wisecracks and friendly ways. In or out of season, football and baseball are the center of Wobb's attention, with hunting filling ln the gaps. Wobb isn't much of a talker so we can't tell you his ambition. We'll just have to wait and see which road to success this quiet friend of ours will follow.

Nancy Jane Riley Commercial Huntingdon Valley Claude Raudenbush Academic Holland Snapper, aided and abetted by his pals, was usually in the process of carrying out a practical joke or thinking up another one. However. his hyper- active sense of humor didn't interfere with his good work as football manager. his active interest in all intramural sports, or his duties on Safety Patrol. Horse back riding, hot rods, and the weaker sex are other real interests. What of flat tires, Snapper? Our popular class secretary found time and energy to participate in cheer- leading, varsity basketball, Glee Club, Safety Patrol and to 'serve as feature ed- itor of the Lionls Roar and literary staff member of the Elmleo. Nancy's pleasing personality, attractive appearance, enthusiasm, and interest in class and school activities probably contributed much to the honor she received of being elected Maid of Honor to the May Queen and will contribute to a successful future. Joan Evelyn Shick Commercial Trevose Although Joan was one of our most quiet members, she was sociable and well- liked by all. Joan participated in intramural basketball, Glee and Safety Clubs. and was an eagle eye proofreader of the Lion's Roar staff. She tells us she enjoys winter sports, radio, hospital work, and meeting nice people. That combination should make for a happy, busy life, we think. Gordon E. Sickel General Trevose Even though he's quiet, and with the girls a little shy, behind his back they whisper, Our Gordy's one swell guy! Gordy proves our case that a fellow doesn't have to be a football hero or a Romeo to be popular with the fair sex. The baseball diamond was Gordy's favorite spot--and the pitcher's mound in partic- ular. Soccer and basketball kept him interested, too, but nothing proved quite so interesting as cars and electrical work. Gordy thinks he'5 headed forthe electrical business--a fine business for a fine fellow.

Joy Grace Thompson Commercial Bethayres Joy is our more talkative twin, sociable, cheerful, and mighty pretty, too. As a member of the Lion's Roar staff, we found her capable of doing some really fine art work. We all know she is a good dancer and also that she loves to skate and cook. It is easy to understand why gossipy people and those who ask too many questions perturb her, for we know she herself is never guilty Sandwiched in be- tween her futtu'e secretarial duties we're sure there will be many new recipes for all sorts of tasty dishes and many more artistic posters and other forms of art work. J une Dorothy Thompson Commercial Bethayres Friendly, attractive and quiet, but always there with a sparkling smile, .T une is our other twin classmate. Being proofreader on the Lion's Roar staff, and a member of our Tri-Hi-Y and Safety Clubs added even more to June's already high credit. She says she likes dramatics and we know that's true because of her part in our senior play, and her hard work to memorize her lines practically overnight when Joy 'ftook sick . Like sister Joy, June finds enjoyment in dancing, skating and more especially in cooking. June's immediate future is also concerned with secretarial work, in the office as in school, we know she'll be quietly efficient and decorative. Mamie Louise Tilghman Commercial Bethayres If you're looking for a cheerful, easy to get along with young lady, you can end your search with one of our favorite school mates, Mamie. Are you looking for a person who can make stylish clothes and one who really enjoys school? That's Mamie again. To go to Virginia State College is her ambition and if she takes to college the loyalty and fine spirit she showed on the varsity hockey team, Virginia State will be mighty glad she enrolled. .RPM Ronald Y. White College Preparatory Huntingdon Valley Having lots of fun and enjoying life is what our Moose wants. I-le didjust this by participating in all class sports, football, basketball, baseball, and soccer, and being active in Hi-Y Qof which he was vice-presidentj and Safety Clubs. Ronnie's likes and interests are those most popular with the fellows in our class-- hot rods, girls, and sports. Dislikes? Liver and P. O. D. Because he can't bear the thought of giving up studying fha! J, Ronnie looks forward to college.
