Beers Jr. Cherryville General Here's Wilson, the guy who's either flying or absolutely immo- bile. At school or the Blue Lan- tern, he's stock-still, at the stock car races or in his fast '5l, he really moves. Speaking of mov- ing, he's planning to grow wings - in the Air Force. Bonnie B. Benninger Pennsville General The dashing blue of her eyes, and the splashing red hue of her hair match the flashing figure of B. B. - Bonnie, that is - down the B. B. - basketball court. Or, it's painting, Eddies, the Blue Lan- tern, or riding horseback. Now she wants to ride the waves - in the Waves. Activities: Basketball 2, Meteorol- ogy Club 2, 3.

Now he's shooting for the whine of industry, especially the Bethlehem Steel Company. Thomas Barthold Bath General A little on the reserved side, yet with a constant smile, is Tom. Although he hasn't been a part of the school athletic program, Tom's loves are football, baseball, and basketball - and he's always playing them. Or, he's eating at the Blue Lantern. Next, he wants a uniform. page 27 Julieann R. Augustine Northampton Secretarial Tank, our outstanding gym- nast, is always bubbling over with energy and enthusiasm.
