GEORGE GIDEON BENSING Bensing” Ho! Ho! Ho! Don't get excited, folks. It's just Bensing's bellow at some poor fellow who has fallen down the steps. He can find time for laughing at anything, no matter how serious. Ben- sing says he doesn't mind school, but he sure is glad when summer comes. His special “love is English. (??) He says he wants to be an undertaker, following in his father's business. One of his favorite foods is ice cream and he claims he can eat a gallon at a time. We'd have to see that to believe it, though. Science Club I. BERNADINE BEATRICE BITTENBENDER Benny Crack! Benny's chewing gum again. She's active in sports and always greets everyone with a smile. How does that Ford look? After what Benny puts it through, we're afraid to look. All joking aside, she's really a good driver. Just ask her three pals from Hecktown. Benny will soon leave the foursome because of the ring she wears on hor third finger of her left hand. Do we hear wedding bells in the noar future? They wouldn't have any connection with Moorcstown, would they? Band I, 2, Magazine Campaign I; Volley Ball I, 2, 3,- Basketball J, 2, 3, Hockey 1. ELKTON KENNETH BLAKE Blakie” The girls must certainly take a lot from this tease, Blakie, who hails from Belfast. Blakie says chewing gum or talking at the wrong time is good for bad jaws. He is willing to try anything once, except schoolwork. Much of his leisure time is spent at the Penn-Jersey airport. 1945

THE COMET MAE AMANDA BACHMAN Mae “Yea Team! Yea Team! It's only Mac spurring the team on to victory. She has been one of our peppy cheerleaders for the last three years. Besides her pep in cheerlcading, she is also a whiz on the basketball floor. Even though she possesses all this pep, Mae takes her good old time in getting to and from classes. Her future ambition is to become a nurse. Dramatic Club I; Volley Ball 1, 2, 3; Basketball I, 2, 3; Baseball I, 2, 3,- Hockey 1, 2, 3, J. V. Cheerleader 1; Cheerleader 2, 3,- Senior Play, Committee 3; Class, Assistant Secretary-Treasurer 2. GRACE HELEN BARRALL Grade Grade's shy and quiet disposition in the classroom is quite deceiving, because outside of class she is just as talkative and full of fun as the next person. Her favorite sports are basketball and volley ball. She also loves to dance, especially with that certain person from Pennsville. Commercial Club 2, 3. DOROTHY MAE BECK Dot Dot, who hails from Bangor, is a jolly little lassie, full of fun and with an unusual laugh that attracts much attention. She does not take part in sports or extra school activities because working in Murphy's 5 and 10 takes up most of her time. She is fond of dancing and bowling. We think her heart-throb is wearing the Navy Blue. Basketball I, 2. Volley Ball 1, 2.

THE COMET ELEANOR DORIS BORGER Blondie” That long, lank, and lean figure with the blonde hair and robin- blue eyes is none other than Blondie. Her policy is one of dis- tributing good will and bearing no malice. Her favorite sports are ice-skating, croquet, and baseball. She hopes some day to become a beautician. Basebaff I, 2, 3; Sale of War Bonds and Stamps 2. DONALD STEPHEN BOYHONT Bohunk Donnie, happy-go-lucky and with an excellent physique, is something to look at. His main interest in school is to tease the girls and this art he's mastered. Bohunk's spare time is spent helping out at a gas station and he really seems to enjoy himself working. Donnie's ability and quick thinking helped our football squad out of some tough spots. Football, Varsity 2, 3,- Class Basketball ?, 2, 3; Class Baseball 1, 2, 3. RICHARD FRANCIS BREINIG Breinig Toot! Toot! Here's the town clown on his skooter in the senior play. School work is no obstacle to Richard. However, d-e-a-r hunting is more fun, isn't it? Or maybe you'd rather go hiking with some boy scouts. Make way for Breinig, the drummer, as he comes parading down Nazareth streets leading the band. Breinig's advice to the boys about the opposite sex is: Don't waste your breath on such creatures! Band 1, 2, 3,- Class Basketball 1, 2, 3,- Senior Play, Major 3; Class Baseball 1, 2, 3.
