NORMAN GLASS “Norm” Hi-Y Club 3-4; Debate Club 4; Debate Team Alternate 4; Glee Club 3; Latin Club Senior Play; Dramatic Club 4. The recent stock crash didn’t seem to affect Norman’s dignity any. He’s still gliding along with his chin up looking pleasantly serious, But is he a wow with women? Bow wow! PAUL GLASS Student Council 2. Senior Secretarial Club. Secretary Room 19. Paul is the bus driver from the rural district. We surely will miss him and his passenger, although we don’t believe he will because we usually see him riding a nice little curly-haired p;irl on these bright moon-light nights. That’s O. K. Paul but don’t let her lead you astray. Remember—“He who travels fastest, travels alone.” JOHN GOURLEY Student Council 3-4; Football 2-3-4; Varsity 3-4; Basketball 2-3; Senior Basket-bail; Ring and Pin Committee. One of our big football “stars.” who has a habit of falling for a certain blonde, but some how always manages to catch himself in time. John seems to like the country but surely it isn't a farmer’s daughter! BERTHA GREENEBERG “Bert” Glee Club 2-3-4. Parlimentary Law Club. Latin Club 2-3; They say “It” is indefinable, so is Bertha. She is talkative, inquisitive, friendly, happy, eccentric, intelligent, funny, and Jikeable. What other Senior has as many qualities? VIRGIL GRICKS “Lefty” Glee Club 2-3-4. Mixed Quartet 3-4. Virgil is one of the mainstays of the (dee Club. He is very agreeable and is always willing to do a good turn for anyone. CHARLOTTE GRIER “Hon” Glee Club. Don’t rush boys. 'Take your time. There may be a steady. We aren’t sure. In school, C harlotte is so serious that she deceives us as to her real character. We prophesy success for her. If not success then the next best thing, marriage. RUTH HAHN “Rooie” “Chubby” Latin Club. Belles of Beaujolais. Dramatic Club. For two years we have watched Ruth’s romance bloom and wedding bells will be ringing for this little Miss. Best Wishes! CLARIBEL HART “Toots” Parlimentary Law Club. Although Claril el has been with us only a year, we have all become very familiar with her giggles and chuckles. She has concealed a great many of her characteristics from us, but the boys seem to find a few of the interesting ones. MARION IIARTLE “Sally” Glee Club. Commercial Club. Belles of Beaujolais. Marion is one of the few persons who has the ability to listen attentively fluring classes anti to get good marks. We know that a person with such ability as Marion’s will surely succeed. CLARENCE HXSCHEN “Benny” Orchestra 1-2-3-4. Gypsy Rover. You’ve heard the saying “The man who blushes is not quite a brute.” We wonder if this is why Clarence blushes so much. Is it Willibel?

FRED FOX “Foxy’’ MILDRED FOSTER “Midge” Glee Club. French Club. Library Club. One of the many Rouseville maidens so irresistible to males. Mildred has pretty locks and a way that seems to be quite successful in making many others sit up and take notice. DOROTHY FOX “Dot” Commercial Club. Secretarial Club. Dorothy is one of our brilliant commercial students. She studies during school hours, and as a result gets the nineties which we so deeply' envy especially when report cards are due. Fred is one of the small mates of our class, but he sure does give his attention to school work, the day’s he’s there). More power to you, Fred. MARGUERITE GALLOWAY “Peggie” “Maggie” Library Club. Commercial Club. Glee Club. Five feet of smiles and sunshine plus a battling brother, personality, and “it.” Why goon any further? MAXINE GARDINER “Mack” Just ask Maxine if she likes surprise parties -there’s no question about that “yes.” However, we hope. Mack, that you won’t surprise us for we're expecting to hear big things from you after leaving O. C. H. S. GEORGE J. GATES “Professor” Honor Student. Hi-Y 3-4. First Prize—Tuberculosis Contests. Home Room Reporter. George's chief ambitions are to get the highest grades possible and to make use of his knowledge. From what we have observed, he has succeeded in both. A successful future is surely ahead for George. CLARENCE GEGOGEINE “Jiggs” Perhaps Clarence is saving his words for a later date, however, we think that perhaps he naturally has a quiet nature. Nevertheless, we know Clarence to l e a good sport and one who will succeed. MABEL GEGOGEINE “Squeakes” Giro Club. Secretarial Club. Girl Reserves. Mabel is a reserved girl of the type which does much for a school in a silent sort of way. SOPHIE GILL “Scotty” Glee Club. Secretarial Club. Sophie Gill: Well, well, well, we can just see Sophie at home if she is anything like she is at home. First here and then there—just missing detention and bumping into a new “Flame.” WALTER GILLEN “Rocky” President Commercial Club. When it comes to asking foolish questions in classes, Walter is always on hand. We haven’t come to a conclusion as to whether he is seeking knowledge or just trying to take up time.

VIRGINIA HECKATHORNE “Ginny” Glee Club. Virginia believes that silence is golden, for she said very little in school. She came all the way from Deep Hollow every day to obtain her education so she might have done all her talking before she came down here. CATHERINE HEFFERN “Katie” Civics Club. Commercial Club. Glee Club. How we envy her! Imagine having a car to escort you to school in spite of this so terrible depression. CLARENCE HESS “Burp” Glee Club 2-3-4; Dramatic Club 2-3; Commercial Club 3: Pepita; Belles of Beau-jolais: Riding Down The Sky; Hi-Y Club 2-3-4: Debating Club; Home Room President. We think that Clarence should have a car so he wouldn’t have to walk so far. Clarence is a good sport and he leaves us with our best wishes for his success. HELEN HERDZINSKY “Phil” Library Club. Office Club 3. Helgn is a Sweet girl who is full of fun and whS has very pretty hair, is always irf a big hurrv so we aren’t very fiell acquairfted. She seems quite popular and is often seen with Bernice. CJucc t CHARLES HOFFMAN “Chuck” Cheerleader 2-3-4. French Club. Debating Club. We wonder if this care free young man likes to trout fish? And to hunt, besides all the outside sports. Regardless of the part that he is most interested in sports, he still is amusing company for any intelligent person. BEATRICE HOLDEN “Bea” “Bede” President Library Club; Secretary Room 26; Senior Play Committee; Glee Club; Dramatic Club; Be Square Basketball; Senior Picnic Committee. Bea is the best liked girl in 1933. She has made more friends in her four years of high school than the rest of our class pyt together. HER lERt HOLLINGSWORTH “Herb” (ytee Club 2-3-4; Student Council 3; Secretary Room 19. Belles of Beaujolais; Riding Down The Sky; Senior High News Representative. We wonder why Herb doesn’t mind having his picture taken and why he takes such good pictures—maybe it’s Kate, who knows? We sure will miss Herb struggling in about three seconds before the last bell, but what’s the difference, Herb can make good excuses. ROBERT HOLLINGSWORTH “Bob” We admire Bob for being able to graduate as it was quite an effort for him on account of his long illness last winter. STANLEY HOMAN “Stan” Glee Club 3-4. Stanley’s main interest in school seems to be to find what to do with a French lesson, other than give it up. His sense of humor plus Theodore’s equals “Monkey Business.’’ HAMILTON HOWGARD “Ham” Where’s all the commotion coming from? I f Ham is near, lie’s the answer. Howev er, he does toot a mean sax. and is a main standby of Steck-Evans Orchestra.
