NANCY MAY HARRISON Nancy can really be called an all-around gal. Her smiling face can be seen in almost every room where there is an activity. Band, Orchestra, Hi-Tri, Drama Club, and Chem- istry Club are among the many activities in which she has participated. Her work as Alumni Editor of the Miller and as Co- editor of the MILLW1-:EEL has contributed to the reputation of the Senior Class. In the scholastic field, Nancy's honor pin is eloquent proof of her good record. Her various achievements are excellent reason to believe that she will succeed in anything that she attempts. ROBERT KENNETH HART, Ir. Friendly and happy-go-lucky, Ken always has a smile on his face for everyone except his football opponents. Once on the rid- iron, he settled down to the business of sharp blocking, tackling, and cool-headed signal- calling as quarterback for the Blue and White eleven. He showed his versatility, competing in basketball and track as well. Ken's care- free spirit was greatly in evidence in the Drama Club and Math Club, while his laugh could be heard ringing through Varsity Club and Hi-Y meetings. Carefree but industrious, Ken is slated for a successful career teaching business administration. ELIZABETH MARY HAYDEN Better known as Betty, this quiet girl came to Millburn from Elizabeth at the beginning of her Iunior year. She is the possessor of a soft voice and a winning smile. When asked about her interests, Betty's emphatic reply is, Horses, just horses, but Mr. E. especially. Mr. E. is Betty's own. Betty's parents own the Millburn Riding Academy, which accounts for her avid interest in riding. Betty's plans for the future are rather uncertain, but you may be sure that a horse will figure in them somewhere. VINCENT HECK Boys, I've gal to have your dues! As Treasurer, Vince has had the privilege of collecting moneys from the recalcitrant mem- bers of the Senior Class, a task comparable to squeezing blood from a rock. His constant striving for economy has kept the Class of '48 in an enviable state of solvency. A man of diversified interests and skills, Vince dis- plays equal talent at catching impossible passes with gluey fingers from his varsity end position, and at attracting members of the fair sex with his winning ways and great personal magnetism.

BEVERLY ANN GREENSIDES Quiet, but determined-that's Bev. Since coming here from Washin ton, D. C., in our Sophomore year, she has made many friends. When she isn't in the Art Room sketchin horses, she may be found outdoors ridin tiem. Indeed, horseback riding is her ?avorite sport. Her evening activities consist of Hi-Tri on Tuesday nights and the Order of Rainbow for Girls every other Wednesday night. She is also a member of the Dramatic Club. Next year she plans to go to college. IAN E AUDREY GROSS Always ready to lend a helping hand, always displaying a friendly smile-that's lane! She is a diligent worker, as shown by her honor grades and her active participation in many activities, including Hi-Tri, G. A. A., Spanish Club, Knitting Club, and Dramatic Club. She plans to major in Spanish at the College of William and Many. We are all very conlident of her ability to succeed in this worlc. Keep up the good work, Ianel LEONARD GRUBER Dribbling down the basketball court and sinking that hook shot was bouncing Lenny Gruber. Lenny also put forth great effort on the gridiron durin his first three tears of high school. Not ong' is he a reliable asketball player, but also one of the most neatly dressed boys in the Senior Class. Len's diversified interests were shown b his ar- ticipation in the Hunting and Fislliing Cgub, intramural basketball, and the Iunior Drama Club. We hope that Leonard's future work in engineering will prove to be as successful as he has been in Nlillburn High School. JOHN WARREN GUPPY, Ir. Always busy with Visual Aid programs, MILLWHEEL Staff photographs, Photography Club activities and math problems-thats gzhn. Iust when the Math Club appears to stumped, Iohn is sure to arrive at an in- genious solution. For his etforts on the nancial side of the Iunior and Senior plays, the Class is much indebted to him. As House Manager, he also contributed greatly to the success of last year's Band Concert. Iohn's careful aim and steady hand made him a sharp-shooting marksman. The possessor of a shrewd scientific mind, Iohn is headed for a successful career in electrical engineering.

After school you'll find Jan down in the Dag with her two side-kicks, either slippin a nickel in the juke box or sipping a coke wiile she listens and she takes it all in. Summer finds hersunning herself on the sandy beaches of New Jersey or at Monmouth Beach Club. The Knitting Club, where she can be seen but not heard, is a retreat for Janet's shyness. Yes sir! we will always remember Jan for her quiet ways and pretty clothes. JOEL EDWARD HENKEL Nothing is impossible! Inspired by this motto, llenk attacks his problem with re- newed vigor, whether it be buildin an auto- matic piano tuner, designing a irainwave recorder, or tightening bearings in his ante- diluvian Chrysler. Joel's unique opinions have led to lively discussions in the Varsity Club, Rifle Club, Physics Club, Chess Club, and Chemistry Club, of which he's the President. llenk's adept court play proved valuable to the tennis team for two years. Not content with this conglomeration of activities, he has also done extensive research in electronics, a study which he hopes to make his life work, JOAN WELDON HICKS No hen party would be complete without one ol' llicksie's fabulous stories. YVhether it be enchanting her listeners or keeping three boys happy simultaneously, Joan performs with equal proficiency. llicksie is active in the Mariners and in school activities such as lli-Tri, Rillle Club, G. A. A., and Drama Club. One would think that being on the AlILl.WHEl-JL Staff and committees for the Junior, Senior, and Kris Kringle Plays would lill her agenda, but Joan always manages to studv, the result an llonor M. When you've reached your goal in lilb, llicksie, comc back and tell us ofyour adventures on the way. LOIS BETH HILBRANDT If you ever feel blue, Lois is the girl to look for. With her dancing eyes and erup- tions of gigglin , she will have you laughing and as gay as herself in short order. Lois's dramatic ability came to light in her Sopho- more year when she starred in the class play, and we will never forget her performance as Rheba in the Senior Play. When off the stage, Lois serves as Miller Exchange Editor and in Hi-Tri. Whenever the needles click the loudest in the Knitting Club, you know you will find Lois busily creating socks or a sweater for Bob.
