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.

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.

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. Academic Course Fleurettc ; Rose of Tokio (2); That's That (3); Spanish Moon (4); Basketball (I-2-3-4); Health Club (3-4); Radio Club (3). CATHERINE E. 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

DOROTHY KEENER 221 E. 21st St. Dandy Dorothy docs not usually delve diligently into deliberative studies. We find her. rather, with “Willie Hiestand or with her trusty little flute. “Dottie has been a spry little saleswoman both for the class and the Girl Reserves (in this work her limber tongue was an asset). Although Dottie did not take actual part in athletics, her interest was not lax in cheering for the good old teams. “Dottie plans to continue developing her artistic temperament at a New York school of art in order to qualify for the profession of interior decorating.

CLARK KUNTZ 2303 Washington Avc. An accommodating young chap and obviously one of the most energetic members of the class of 1930 is Herb. Though small in stature he has the friendship of the big fellows. However, he makes himself seen and heard by coming down the streets in his old reliable, the Ford. His hangout is at Stumpy’s Garage. way up near Twenty-seventh Street. Sonny-Boy is a studious chap who likes to have the room in an uproar through some wise crack. He is an authority on fishing, that being his uppermost idfa on a good day’s fun. We believe that Clark is keeping something a secret since he hasn't even whispered about the future. Commercial Course Science Club (I); Commercial Club (3-4). ARLENE KOCHER 221 E. 21st St. Jimmie’s eyes are trying to tell us something. We sec lurking in their depths of mischief, duty, optimism, knowledge galore. Her sparkling wit seems out when least expected. A lustless mood (if she possesses any such thing) has never peeped through her cheerful exterior. ’‘Jimmie has steadfastly believed all through these years that step by step one goes forward. If practice makes for perfection. then we know her weakness for music lies in the fact that she has twanged the strings of her banjo for four years in the glee club, and studied in a music class for two years.
