VIRGINIA BARTRON “Ginny” Happy-go-lucky Ginny hails from Hecktown. Her meat is a roller skating rink or a group of boys. Ginny is very active in sports, especially hockey and basketball. She tells us her chief ambition is to have a home of her own and we believe it, for her correspondents include soldiers, sailors, and marines.

STERLING BATH “Sterling” Sterling-—pesty, dreamy, and sometimes quiet—is one of our students from Belfast. Outside of being a tease in room 29, he is sincere in his work, even if he “doesn’t get it” sometimes. At present Sterling’s attention is focused on a dark-haired sophomore from his own home town. Football (2). GLADYS BEAL “Reds” “Well, I just can’s get it!”—Gladys’ puzzled expres¬ sions are the source of enjoyment for chemistry and Ger¬ man students; nevertheless, she doesn’t give up very easily. Her trim figure plus her pleasing personality will be two of her greatest assets in aiding her to become one of our “women in white.” Commercial Club (1); Dramatic Club (1); Blue and White Standard (2), Associate Editor (3); Senior Play, Minor (3); Prom, Refreshment Committee (2).

THE COMET GERALD ALTEMOSE “Altemose” Happy-go-lucky and genial are two adjectives that fit Jerry. Boy scout work and prize fights take up most of his spare time. You never see Gerald without also seeing Carl and Charlie with him. He intends to become an electrician if he isn’t taken into the Army. Track (1) (2); Senior Play, Electrician (3); Science Club (2). I ELAINE AUDENRIED “Rusty” The first impression of “Rusty” is that she is small, neat, pleasant, but very quiet. However, appearances are deceiving for she always brings life and fun into any crowd. Two of her main interests are skating and danc¬ ing. Have you noticed that “Rusty” is quite interested in the Navy?

S.’s snappy head cheerleader, adding pep to the cheering section. Marion played a splendid role as Mrs. Miller in the senior play, “Young April.” She is very active in sports. When there’s merrymaking and dancing in the offing, this lassie is always in the center of the crowd. With her pleasing personality, Marion should be an outstanding “Woman in White.” Basketball (1) (2) (3); Hockey (1) (2) (3); Baseball (1) (2) (3); Blue and White (1) (2) (3); Cheerleader (2) (3); Volley Ball, Captain (1) (2) (3).

THE COMET ROCCO BELLO “Rocy” “Rocy,” as he is known by his friends, is quite an ac¬ complished musician. According to this fellow, school is an unnecessary evil. When the 3:30 buzzer rings, Rocy’s up and out on his way home with never a worry. Never¬ theless, Rocy is an all-round good fellow, and may soon be wearing the khaki of the Army. THERESA BELSO “Terry” Theresa is our little blonde friend from Dexter. Al¬ though she has many girl friends, her friendliness ends here, for she remains aloof to the opposite sex. We won¬ der if “Joe” doesn’t interest her a tiny bit? Her skill and eagerness on the hockey field and the basketball floor indicate her vitality and enjoyment of sports. Hockey (1) (2), Captain (3); Volley Ball (1) (3), Captain (2); Basketball (1) (2) (3); Baseball (1) (2); Commercial Club (1) (2) (3). TRUMAN BITTENBENDER “Spit” “Spit,” an athletic type of boy, is a Hecktown lad. As half-back on the football team, he helped the team win many a victory. School isn’t Truman’s first love, for his main interest centers around a certain miss from Macada. Football (1) (2) (3); Class basketball (1) (2) (3).
