He can always be found in the gym or on the athletic held playing with those big athletic bullies and worrying the onlookers for fear he'll get hurt. Although he does not hold any athletic records, he does hold a record to be proud of! Every football, baseball, and basketball game played by Merchantville during the past few seasons was bright- ened by the shining personality of Gerts. Basketball Manager, 4, Hi-Y, 25 Perfect Attendance, 2. CLARENCE M. GREAR, JR.. llcapli You've got to be a football hero to get along with the beautiful girls. Cappyy' is a football hero-and does he get along with the girls! Ask anyone. His big brown eyes, brown wavy hair, and muscular physique are just women bait. They can't resist him. Besides being a lover, he also shines in most of his studies. Go get him, girls. Cappyl' is popular with everyone, even the little tykesr down in the grade school hang on his coat tails. Football, 2, 3, 4, Hi-Y, 2. JEAN IIAGEMAN Cowboy Putt-putt-putt-putt. Vl'atch out! Here comes Hage- man on his two-bit motorcycle. He's probably trying to run the thing on water this time. If Merchantville is ever blown off the map, blame it on Hageman. He is one of our enthusiastic chemists who experiment in stinks and smells. W hen everyone else in the Chemistry lab is running to the windows gasping for air, Jean is bending over the desk enjoying the fragrant aroma. VIOLET HAIN ES uBarrH Here is Violet, an intelligent and clever girl. VVe expect some day to find her among the list of leading novelists or short story writers. Violet doesn't talk much, but when she does, it's a pleasure to listen. She and Irene find much to giggle at in English class, and with them to start it, the whole class is off. But if we all got the marks Violet does, we could teach the teachers. Salutatorian.

CHARLES GALLIMORE Giggles The little boy that made good! Charles used to be that cute little tyke who slipped bashfullyaround the halls suck- ing his thumb. And then the cute little thing had to grow up. Now he is tall and straight and has gained his laurels on the basketball floor. But he was so cute and all the girls liked him so much. Of course, they still do, but just the same -why did he have to grow up? Basketball Squad, 4g Baseball Manager, 4g Geometry Club, 2. NANCY JANE GASS ll YI When one sees a small, curly haired girl tripping down the hall, one may be sure that it is Nancy. A smile and a cheery word from Nancy will brighten anyone's day. That same smile is without doubt the chief reason for her popu- larity. And such a small girl to attempt such a big job as cheer leading! But never the less, Nancy is always full of school spirit and ready to try to make the rest of the school have the same spirit as she has.

SIDN EY GLYNN l I 1 1 Sid is the man! And do the ladies go for him? Or should we say, does he go for the ladies? Well, in either case, he certainly is the perfect ladies' man. We wonder if he ever gets home early after school? We doubt it very much, because he's always loitering in the hallway talking to one girl or another. Nevertheless the boys all envy him and the girls? Y P ? P Football, 2, 3, 45 Baseball, 2, 3, 4g Interclass Basketball, 3, 4, Dra- matic Club, 3g Hi-Y, 4, Play Cast, 4. JOHN GODWIN Johnnie He's just a great big man from the South, minus the big cigah in his mouth. john knows all the answers and everything else besides. When Mr. Beery is at a loss for a witty remark, they are readily and willingly supplied by john. VVe hear his ambition is to be a jolly tar. Well, he's jolly enough now. All he has to do is to add the tar, and he'll be everything your little heart desires. THE RECORD 1 W r so ! 1 jj I 4 ,Jil f 19 1 ae ' l I 1 ,

3 ' JOHN L. HANKINS uhlakeu ' Here's our quiet and dignified president. Jake has piloted our class skilfully through its last year. Withhim and his determined views, nothing went wrong. His school career followed that of a regular statesman. In his sopho- more year he was treasurer, in his junior year, vice-presi- dent, in his senior year he attained the greatest office of all -our president! Not only that, he was voted as our most popular boy. There, that's just a small idea of Jake and his abilities.

MARGUERITE HAYES Margie , This charming lass of the senior class of '35 has a very pleasing personality. She's sweet and gentle in her manner, and no matter with whom she seems to come in contact, she makes friends. She has a winning smile, which lights up her whole face when she hears something funny, and that's quite often. Her voice is very smooth and gentle, and can she sing? She's always gay, happy, and humming a tune. RECORD Staff, 43 Glee Club, 2, 3, 4, Operetta, 2, 35 Aerial Staff, 3, 4 ANNA M. HAYS Anna is one of the most reserved girls in our class. Small, quiet, and almost timid, she passes from class to class along with the rest of us. She never calls attention to herself, and one often wonders just what is under that dignified exterior which never is pierced. Her talents on the piano and guitar cannot be compared because none in our class has heard her play. A true little church mouse she is, as she faithfully does her part in our daily work. She will be the first bride of the class, for she is to marry soon after school closes. Interclass Volleyball, 4, French Club, 4. CONRAD HEADLEY uGeeZyru Not the big man from the South, but the big man from the West. Believe it or not, Geezy came from a ranch. Tall, blond, and handsome! Girls, what more could you ask for? And can that boy ride a motorcycle! Can a fish swim? He almost killed that poor machine, driving from his house-or from school-to the bakery on Center Street. Football, Varsity, 4, Monitor, 4.
