THE KERNEL June, 1931 RUTH HARDING ,Ruthie,, Glee Club I; Commercial Club II; Christmas Pa- geant III, IV; Dramatic Club 111. IV; Typing: Awards III; Senior Play Cast IV; Chester County Drama Tournament III; Senior High Chorus III; Kernel Staff IV; Class Committees I. III. This little blonde is the song-bird of our class. Ruthie is interested in the fine arts of life, and has ability in dramatics. Perhaps some day we shall see her as leading lady on tile musical stage. Whatever she does, we are certain that she will sing her way through life. WILLARD WEITZEL HEINEY “Weitzel” Class Vice President IV; Baseball Manager IV; Varsity Championship Debating Team III, IV: Kdltor O. H. S. News IV; Secretary French Club III: Dra- matic Club II; Senior Play Cast IV; Christmas Pageant II. Ill, IV’; Debating Club III, IV; Kernel Staff IV; Honor Group; Class Committees III, IV; Class Teams II, III, IV. The would-be villain—but Weitzel’s tender years prevent him from filling the role success- fully. Weitzel threatens to become a miniature Don Juan—what palpitating heart (including that of a certain minister’s daughter) would not beat faster at the sight of that lovely mar- cel? However, we know that this boy will be one of the members of our class who will suc- ceed. GERALD WATSON KEILHOLTZ “Rougie” Aviati n Club II: Varsity Basketball II. III. IV; Varsity Soccer III, IV’; Soccer Squad II; Varsity Base- ball III, IV; Varsity Track 111; French Club III: Christmas Pageant IV; Senior Play Cast IV; Dramatic Club IV: Class Committees I, IV; Class Teams I. II. Ill, IV. Rougie is the Abraham Lincoln of our class, lank, honest and a tiller of the soil. He is an- other one of the silent gang, who seldom uses his mouth for anything except chewing his food or reciting an exceptional difficult lesson in physics. This hoy intends to be an engineer, and we assure you that whatever Rougie en- gineers, will be done thoroughly. U

 June, 1931 THE KERNEL PAULINE ADELIA GRAY “Enie” Glee Club II: Commercial Club III, IV’; Commercial Literary IV; Typing Awards III. Pauline belongs to that unusual class of girls who keep their mouths shut and their eyes open. However, when she does talk, it is always to say something worth listening to. This girl is going to become a stenographer, and we are sure that she will make a good one. MILDRED LORETTA HAGY “Hagy” Commercial Club III, IV’: Vice-President IV; Give Club II; Varsity Basketball III; Captain IV’; Varsity Hockey III; Captain IV; Typing Awards III; Class Teams I. II, III, IV. We always think of sports and Hagy togeth- er, for she is one of our experts with the hockey stick and basketball. She is almost Oriental, in that she lets nothing disturb her equinamity, and as for her humor—well, it’s just irrepressible. ADRIENNE McCLURG HALL ‘‘Adee” Literary Editor Kernel IV; Glee Club I, II; French Club III; Debating Club III. IV’; Class Reporter Kern- el I; Class Reporter O. H. S. News III; Senior Play Cast IV; Decorative Club II: Christmas Pageant III; Dramatic Club II; Salutatorian, Class Committees ill, IV; Senior Chorus IV; Health Club IV’; Varsity Cham- pionship Debating Team II, III. IV’. This impetuous Miss, with tlie everlasting good nature, is always ready to help anyone out of a tight place. Her good disposition has remained undaunted after a four-year siege of exams, which is ample proof that all red hair- ed people do not have fiery dispositions. She seems to have a particular liking for Philadel- phia. Just ask her how she spends all the time down there. We hope that Adee Hall will be as successful in her career as a doctor as she has been in high school. 12

June, 1931 THE KERNEL MALCOLM HOLLIS KELLY “Milky” Class President II; Class Vice President I, III; Varsity Track I, II. Ill; Varsity Soccer II. III. IV; All- County Soccer II; Science Club II; Varsity basketball III. I ; President French Club III; Associate Kditor O. II. S. News IV; Christmas Pageant IV; Senior I lay Cast IN ; Newspaper Club IV; Senior High School Chorus IV; Assistant Kditor Kernel IV; Class Committees I. III. IV; Class Teams 1. II. III. IV. Kelly would make a fine deep-sea fisherman, hut in his youth, he decided that lie didn’t like “waling’ trips. Now his future will probably be seeing what In can see from the comedy stage, as lit has successfully filled the role of class humorist and joker during our entire time in high school. ROGER KIRK “Sammie” “Kirkie” Cheer Leader III, IV; Kernel Staff III, IV; Senior Play Cast IV; Associate Kditor O. H. S. News IV; Hramatlc Club 11. Ill; Christmas Pageant III, IV; .Neni r High School Chorus III, IV; Class Committees III, IV; Class Team IV. Kirkie is one of those persons about whom you are never certain. Ilis reply to even the soberest question is likely to be so full of sparkling wit and burnot that it is enough to convulse a wooden Indian. His motto is “Bet- ter late than never”, and lie adds, as lie enters class ten minutes late, “Well, someone has got to teach the others patience, and if everyone is on time, how will they ever learn to wait?” “Kirkie s future will also he the comedy stage, playing in partnership with Kelly. SARA EDITH McCULLOUGH “Bet” Commercial Club II. HI;. Health Club IV; Tvping Award III; Christmas Pageant IV; Class Teams’1. Kdith not only is a twin to Sophia in school, but is a car lover. Edith and her auto seem as inseparable as the twins. If either pair were broke, we fear Edith would he inconsolable, unless she would find comfort in Harvey—but that would be telling tales out of school. 14
