ELNORA OLSEN M ugsie ' ' Although Elnora hasn't been with us very long, she has won many friends by her genial self. Hello, honey, is the greeting we all receive from her. She is one of our brilliant girl mathematiciansg no problem stumps her. It is always fun to receive new people into our class, especially if they are as nice as Elnora. We're only sorry that she didn't arrive here about two years earlier so that she might have had a larger part in our activities. Class Night Committee, 45 French Club, 4, Monitor, 4. HAL ORNER Kidder Gaze on that manly countenance, oh fair readers, and remain unmoved if you can. None other than our illustri- lp ous Hal. He is an athlete who Finds time to play basket- ball now and then: one of those energetic lads who con- tinually wear a smile and always seem to be going some- where. Mr. Orner takes a very fatherly interest in the cur- rent horseplay about the school, thus definitely proving himself one of the boys.

He walks around the school with that inimitable Page strut. He dresses in that inimitable Page style. As a basketball Hash, he is quite the stuff. Many have been the times that Tetched was a hero in the eyes of the school. He used to push that old score up so quickly that we were left breath- less. Good old Tetched. He may not be exactly per- fect,-no one is,-but his other qualities make up for any l deficiencies he may have. Class Secretary, 25 Basketball, 2, 3, 4, French Club, 4.

0 b l gi ml. .Ili 'Q l A X sn ll! - C i lul i 'Q MAURICE S. MOEN Mots An unusual lad, Maurice! Vl'ith all the attributes of a shiek-tall, good looking, slim, and blond,-he has gone quietly about his business since he came to us three years ago from Pennsauken. Oh my! Vlhat admiration and despair his collar ad profile has caused the girls! A quiet, unassuming chap, he ought to wear well wherever he goes. Rrzcorm Staff, 45 Play Ticket Committee, 3, Christmas Card Com- mittee, 4. WILLIAM MORTON Bill Since Bill came to us from Frankford High, he has made an outstanding record in all his math subjects: even Mr. Beery relies on Bill's judgment of a difficult problem. All the boys in gym class will remember his dribbling the ball all over the floor and getting nowhere in a hurry. He loves to mutter before recitations, in an effort, we think, to scare the teachers. And his falsetto laugh! Oh, Bill! Stop it, you're killing us! CATHERINE MOUNT ll C ll The girl with the ready smile! The girl with a smile, is a girl worth while, when everything else goes wrong. Next to the teachers, Catherine does more work than any one else in the school. Her artistic talent, brains, and per- sonality have been a valuable contribution to our class. Valedictorian.

Laureate Society. ROBERT S. MULHOLLAND ll YY Meet Mr. Mulholland's son, Robert. A fine lad is Bob. He's the boy who picks and saws at the strings of that tiny instrument known as the bass viol. The music he renders is a delight to everyone. His voice is the thing, though. When he sings, girls take notice. Then they look. Ah, dark and romantic! That's all- Bob has captured more feminine hearts. He is usually up to some sort of mischief, although judging from those innocent eyes, would you ever think it?

He may have a few parts left over when he gets it together again, but vi hat's the difference? It won't work anyway. Any- thing with chains, cogs, or pulleys greatly appeals to Fanny, Never let him get his hands on your watch, or the first thing you know, you won't know anything, or you won't have a watch, or something. His conscientious efforts at soliciting ads put the rest of the class to Shame. Rrcolm Staff, 45 Play Committee, 4, Essay Contest, 35 Perfect Attendance, 3, 4. ELEANOR PLOSS Plossie ln its junior year, our class was brightened by a Hash of color-Eleanor's red hair. Vl ith it came a girl full of pep and good humor. The traditional red-headed temper seems in this case to have centered in the lighting spirit which Eleanor showed to great advantage on the hockey field. Vfe are told that Eleanor has a great ambition to become an actress, and if we know our red-head, she will accomplish what she sets out to do.

STANLEY POKORSKY ll Y 1 Stanley goes about his daily tasks with an air of deter- mination. At all times he puts forth the greatest effort to accomplish his work. If he goes out into the world with the same determination he has maintained while in our class. he is sure to obtain success. Boy, he must be a healthy lad! Perfect attendance for three whole years. Many pupils would like to discover how this is humanly possible. How do you do it, Stanley? Perfect Attendance, 2, 3, 4. HENRY L. PRESTON Henry has a grand sense of humor, and his ability to keep lda Kunkle in stitches from the beginning to the end of a class is viell known. He doesn't have very much to say, but when it comes to arguing algebra he is in a class all by himself. In his own small way, Henry is an authority on women's clothing and is constantly informing a certain young miss that he thinks her color combinations are terrific.
