OMEGENE FEHNEL Bath. Route 2 We believe “Gene’’ does algebra in her sleep from force of habit. At that, she surely does excel in math. This little girl hails from ten-miles up country (place indefinite) and the first time she rode up in her jumpy old Ford she rode straight into our hearts. Genie” lives too far from our school to take an active part in our activities; however. she more than makes it up in her scholastic excellence. We hope to see Gene” wreaking arithmetical vengeance on the coming generation. but we know that she will be one of those privileged teachers who are obeyed because they are loved. Academic Course Radio Club (3); That's That”; National Honor Society (4); French Club (4); Girl Reserves (4). MARY JANE FRANTZ 1425 Dewey Ave. Oh! He’s a funny bugger!” To be sure no other than Jary could say this with more sinccrety and drollery combined. Her buf-fonish habits act as a magnet, drawing to her side many sworn friends. Jary’s nimbleness caught her in a whirlpool of sports in which she ably excelled. She will always be remembered as the plucky little side-center who fought hard and long to bring the coveted championship to the girls’ basketball team. Jary’s” into everything. A square peg may not fit into a round hole, but “Jary manages somehow or other to make herself fit wherever she is. Deepest wishes for your success, “Jary.

GUTH 717 Lincoln Ave. Want to know something: Ask Cassy” —official information bureau of the Commercial class. She is the original model for what an H. S. girl should be. When she entered as a Freshman she was modest and she’s still modest. Imagine that! She is a faithful student and a good friend to the few with whom she is intimate. Cassy doesn’t bother her head about anything so trivial as sports and the male sex. She has about her that indefinable air of knowing what to do and how to do it when the fore-destined day arrives. Our respect and confidence have been won by Cassy’s quiet loyalty and bubbling humor. Commercial Course Commercial Club (3-4); Girl Reserves (3-4); Rnulish Club (I). 4 28

ETHYL CHF.RNANSKY 1344 Washington Ave. Blithe, agile, amiable, quite well describes Chic.” Ever moving Chic finds it a trial to be quiet, a circumstance which no one regrets. No matter where she is seen her flashing blue eyes tell tales full of mischief and song. During her first two years she cast her lot with the Academic group and then suddenly like a bolt from the blue she turned from this path into that of the Commercial. Through the loss of the Academics, the Commercial have gained. Nevertheless. the whole class calls her its own. She was one of the most prominent players on the basketball team.

WILLIAM DRABIK 1617 Newport Ave. This studious lad. though he does not appear so. entered the High School portals very timidly, very much astounded by the knowledge to be acquired therein. William learned all there was to be taught and kept everything a secret in his mind. No teacher under any circumstances. could make him divulge of his learnings. William is known for his ability in shorthand and has a hankering for typewriting and English work. The Commercial Course appealed to Willie and he prepared himself diligently for his future as a business man. Commercial Course Science Club (1); Class Basketball (2-3-4); Commercial Club (4). EVELYN M. COLEMAN 822 Lincoln Ave. Cheerio” himself stepped out of the picture when this blithe young lady gaily jumped into view. Yes. jumped is right. Ben never walks and seldom skips but bounces and bubbles out of sheer good spirits. Although not a student. Ben is naturally brilliant and lives by her wits - the more glory to her. say the younger generation. Along with a thousand and one other abilities. “Benny shines on the debating team. Tis reported she swept an appreciative Catasauqua audience clean off its feet. However, that's not unusual she always could talk.

EVAN JOHN HANKEE 1622 Washington Avc. This loyal member of the Y. M. C. A. provides the laughing gas for the relief of the bored students in P. of D. class. Evan’s wit has turned teacher's hair gray and saved the class morale, which was dangerously near to becoming serious. Hankec is a charming fellow ask almost any senior girl. It may be his eyes that tell a flirtatious story but something finer inside, that a few are privileged to know, holds them. In spite of his outward scorn for lessons. Evan is by no means a mediocre student. Evan intends to be a dentist and we are sure that his winning smile will despise all of the fears of his crying patients.

Willie surely can talk and win the laurels for it. too! Arlene was prominent in dramatics and the Junior Speaking Contest. She will be remembered as Miss Doolittle in the Spanish Moon. Willie” isn't very fond of school books, but at that she isn’t a poor student. When we think of the tremendous change from the shy little girl we used to know to this happy-go-lucky.

JOHN HOWER 252 E. 21st St. John became a member of our class in our sophomore year and he has been a loyal member since. He is just another reason why the Y. M. C. A. is still in existence. Although naturally quite serious. Johnny is always ready for a good time. Hower isn't on very intimate terms with any of his books but he knows his stuff. He’s a loyal member of the orchestra and he can be seen twirling the baton in front of the band. Johnny’s good at his work and he shirks nothing.
