CONSTANCE G. HIRSCH Commercial One of the greatest disappointments to M-N ' s masculine segment has been Connie ' s singular attention to a favored few, sometimes from rival schools. No doubt Connie has gained this inter -scholastic popu- larity with her pretty hair and diminutive figure, characteristics which twice have made her a fitting Sadie Hawkins wolf -gal. Secretary 2; Dance Committee 3: Majorette i, 2, 3, 4: Tri-Hi-Y2.3, 4; Majorette Club 1,2. ELEANOR FRANCES HOCH Academic Mr. Kachur ' s right-hand girl is partial to bright reds, cool hot tods, and Murphys’ merchandise. In several years, Fitzgerald-Mercy Hospital will receive the same loyal service which future -nurse Eleanor has unselfishly afford- ed our class, especially in the financing of the ' 56 MEM- ORIES. Mar-News 2, 3: Hockey Manager i; Basketball Manager 1,2,3: Senior Chorus 1,2; Yearbook Staff 4: Dance Committee 3,4; Dancing and Library Club i. BRUCE W. HOWARD Academic Bruce is a man of likes and dislikes. Seemingly, he has no time for women or homework, but all of us wish we had his amazing knowledge of physics and chemistry. Any extra time Bruce spends on hobbies ranging from jazz and Bob-and-Ray to ornithology and photography. Student Council l; Debating 4; Guard of Honor 3; Play 4: Yearbook Staff 4: Engineers’ Club 3; Science Club i. ROBERT W. HUNTER Academic If every class has an enigma. Bob seems to be ours, for he keeps pretty much to himself. Most of Bob ' s weekend is spent keeping Horn and Hardart ' s in running condition. His interests include his dog Chip, his black 50 Ford, and music, particularly jazz and rock n roll. Dance Committee 3: Baseball i; Letterman 1. 28

PRISCILLA ELAINE HARLOW General A keen sense of humor accompanied by a spiraling giggle characterize Pat, usually seen goofing off with Nancy. The original hair styles and her ambition to be an airline hostess misrepresent Pat ' s real name, which she heartily dislikes. Tri-Hi-Y 3. JOHN HARTNETT In the year that we have known John, he has impressed us with this friendliness and fondness for women. What we wonder is how much the trips to school with Sam in the DT car have improved the navigation of his boat or his cars. ELIZABETH G. HATCHER Academic Tests and gym classes frequently find Betty with her pals. Marge and Nancy, pursuing happiness in a different direction. These diversions may include anything from Brubeck to Steve Allen. Hatch hopes to be a Betty Co-ed at either University of Pennsylvania or Penn State Junior Prom Committee 3. WILLIAM RUDD HENDERSON Academic Lititz ' loss was M-N ' s gain, for Rudd, with his alto sax and friendly nature, has become a valuable asset to our school community. Rudd ' s summer pastimes, camping and swimming, have conditioned him for the hardy life of a U. S Forester. Band 4.

Class Secretary l; Treasurer 4: Chorus; Play 2, 3: Dance Committee 3; Football i. VIRGINIA LOUISE JOHNSON Academic The common last name of Johnson belies the exceptional good nature and popularity of pretty Ginny. She has managed to combine an active high school schedule with an equally busy social program, which has included such interests as ;!lC() , bowling, and Art.
