Scoop, with the unruly blonde hair, just bubbles over with vim and vitality. Take it from us, there's never a dull moment when Scoop's in the crowd, and it is usually Evers who breaks the silence of a study period. However, when calmed down, ho can do his studies quite eliiciently. Mr. Scoop is the senior class's best debater and extempor- aneous speaker and we, his classmates, all know that to argue with him is just a waste of time, because you're always sure to lose out anyway. He is not one to let a good friend down, and will do any- thing in his power to help. This is one reason why Scoop is regarded as a friend to all his classmates. Oh, and by the way, 'lScoop's favorite pastime fbesides his studies and the Press car, alias the Ford1 is fishing, rep- tile charming, and acquiring an arsenal of .22 calibre rifles. Did you know that Evers was born November 20, 1924, and hails from the capital of our state, Harrisburg? 1 The Class of '42 in Rhyme WW? School days, school days, dear old golden rule days- Those lines are oldg they've been used before, But it won't hurt to use them just this once more. Reading, and writing and 'rithmetic- And please don't forget the hickory stick- To hear this song makes us . . . oh, so blue- 'Cause we're the class of '42. School days are gone, school days are over- We've left forever the fields of clover. But in our memory there'll always be traces- Of well-known voices and well-known faces. There's our Babs . . . the glamorous blonde, And the jolly, effervescent Dunn. Who'll ever forget Mick who daily trekked Down to the house where lived his Knecht? And there's that irrepressible group Composed of Chet, and Lech, Marty, and Scoop From Goodville comes Clara, the little mite And Hazel, our bundle of dynamite. fRuby and Jim, our inseparable pair-f And Louise, happy-go-lucky with nary a care. There's Speed and Obie . . . Franklin Waid All of whom will drive any car ever made. From Jackson Street come Betty and Ren - On the way to school they'd pick up Ham. We mustn't forget that Blue Ball boy- N one other than our own Leroy. And Mil and Kate . . . two girls that alw ys stick. Likewise for Blaine and his good friend Chic Ethel is our studious gal Who at N. H. H. S. has many a pal. 'Ruthie is our nurse to be- And one all right guy is Earl Eaby. That's twenty-seven of twenty-eight- And the other one just doesn't rate Exclusion to him will have no sting- 'Cause he's the guy who wrote this thing! 7 a k -Leo Grant Page Nineteen

X Eg g: MARTIN WEAVER Basketball 12, 3, 43 5 Basketball Manager 113 5 Soc- cer 13, 43, Baseball 13, 435 Glee Club 1435 Senior Play 143, Leoninus 143. A decided blond, Marty is one member of the Senior class who really knows his Mathematics. We thought at first we might have a future Math teacher, but it seems Marty has other plans! Marty was born in New Holland, February 27, 1925, and entered our group in fourth grade. Up until then the class lack- ed something and Marty proved to be that something, and im- mediately became a friend to all. We'll never forget his fine work on the Varsity basketball squad. Many a time he slipped in a trickly field goal to make it tough going for the opposing team. Remember a handsome lad named Eddie in our Senior play? Well, that was our Marty, and an excellent job he did, too. Marty likes movies and more movies, and in his leisure time can be seen hitch-hiking to Lancaster with a gang to take in a show. Wherever you go after graduation, remember, our luck and the best of everything goes with you. MILDRED ARLENE WEAVER Glee Club 11, 2, 3, 43 9 Basketball 123 5 Operetta 123. Mi1ly,', who is the blonde of our class, was born September 9, 1924, in New Holland, is one of the most industrious people we know. Not only does she take care of the larger part of the school's secretarial work, but is a constant source of authority in office practice. She must live up to the old adage, Silence is Golden, be- cause never a word is uttered during class time, which only goes to show you what an excellent student she is. It's an established fact that blondes usually crave the op- posite sex, but here's one girl who doesn't bother in the least about any one of them. We guess she figures that there is plenty of time for that. Mildred is devoted to her studies and when the rest of us are complaining, she just smiles and makes the best of it. Although not active in sports, Milly is an ardent rooter at all soccer, track and basketball games. Good luck in your chosen field, Mildred, we're going to miss you! ELRAY WEIDMAN, JR. Basketball 1133 Baseball 13, 433 Basketball Man- ager 1333 Senior Play Electrician 143. A deep silence fills the room! Everyone's breathlessly awaiting the teacher's next move! Suddenly from out of no- where a jolly laugh issues forth. Aha! the guilty one is found, and it's none other than our old friend, Chick. Besides studies, which Chick sometimes considers boring, he finds relaxation by working in one of our local stores. Come on, fellow, get that ball here, what's holding you up? This little phrase is just one that Chick can be heard shouting behind home plate while he's doing an excellent job as the team's number one catcher. Elray, who was born September 15, 1923, never seems to let studies bother him, and even though work might pile up one week, he is one that does not slip up in his studies. Success in life is yours for the asking, Chick, and maybe some day you might be manager of a large retail store. Page Eighteen
