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.

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

GERALD JOHN BRINKER Brink A quick hiya, and then down to work. That's Brink arriving at school in the morning. He says that he's in a hurry to get his algebra done, but usually he ends up by participating in the general gab with the rest. He was a constant follower of the basketball team, and one night driving home from a game, he bumped the grill on his Chevy. He said he had his eyes on the road, but you can't tell. How about if, Brink? Class Basketball 3,- Class Baseball 3. THEODORA ANN BROBST Teddy” Here's another versatile senior, Emily of the operetta and Mrs. Holden of the senior ploy. She is a member of the Blue and White Staff and has contributed to the Comet as a Music Editor. With all these activities she still has time for other things. Could it be male companionship, Teddy? Her ambition is to be a secretary, and she intends to go to business college.
