21 E T A Page Fifteen EDYTHE D. CASTLE J. WESLEY CHADDER MARY P. CHEBATOR “And thou, thou makest the sad heart gay. OBSERVER STAFF FRENCH CLUB META STAFF WOMAN ' S CLUB That happy little girl who runs about the corridors stopping here and there to chat is “Edie.” She is well liked by both girls and boys and is known to all as a keen lover of fun and frolic. Her friendly qualities make her an ideal pal for everyone. “He alone has energy who cannot be de- prived of it.” TRAFFIC SQUAD FRENCH CLUB Do you know “Wes,” the go-getter? Who doesn’t? “Red” has made a rep- utation around these parts as a very persuasive and convincing salesman. They tell us that he is a real business man during the day but after business hours — “Wes” and his flivver — well, they go places. “Modesty seldom resides in a breast that is not enriched with noble virtues.” A quiet, unassuming young lady is the one we now meet, one who is ac- curate and efficient in all of her school work. Although not active in class projects she has made and con- tinues to keep a large number of friends who will always wish her true success in whatever she may attempt.

Page Fourteen M ETA MARY E. BURNETT “Still waters run deep.” Silence — a long pause — and then more silence. Correct, it’s Mary Bur- nett. Although extremely quiet, we are not at all concerned about Mai ' y’s future for she has done her work so well that we are expecting much from her in future days. Good luck, Mary. GERTRUDE T. BUTLER “Her sunny locks hang on her temples like golden fleece.” In her one year at P. H. S. Gert’s bright and sparkling blue eyes and her hair of purest gold, which frames her face like a halo, made her a most attractive person indeed, a prime favorite with all her classmates. Where her infectious giggle is heard, there will be fun in abundance. ’Twouhl be superfluous to wish suc- cess to one so richly endowed with the gifts that are bound to bring to her a high position in life. MARY E. BUXTON “Show your wisdom, daughter, in your close patience.” WOMAN’S CLUB FRENCH CLUB LUNCH COUNTER AGORA A slender little girl with a cheery smile ever lighting up a happy coun- tenance, Mary has certainly captured our hearts. To minister to the sick is Mary’s ambition in life and we can- not help congratulate the fortunate ones who will be nursed back to health under the charming care of nurse Mary.

PajJie Sixteen M ETA JOHN CHERWEK “Men of few words are the best men.” Blonde hair, pleasing countenance, and quiet manners are the points of character by which “Johnny” is dis- tinguished. As an authority on radios, we recommend him to be an advisor of the highest type. It is understood that “Johnny” aspires to be a radio announcer. Good luck! SHELDON S. CHURCHILL “Heroes are made, not born.” VARSITY FOOTBALL (4) CLASS FOOTBALL (4) With the term aquatics, one will almost immediately associate the name of “Sheld.” At his chosen avo- cation, swimming, Sheldon has no peer in our student world. Jolly, sociable, nonchalant, he wends his merry way leaving a host of loyal admiring friends in his wake. You just can’t resist him. MARY T. CONNOLLY Such popularity must be deserved. SECRETARY OF SENIOR CLASS META STAFF CAPTAIN OF THE VARSITY BASKETBALL OBSERVER STAFF SENIOR PLAY Mary, our popular secretary, fairly bubbles with charm and vivacity from the tips of her toes to the utmost curl on the top of her red head. But wait, friends and classmates, don’t think for even one second that our “Connie” is frivolous. No indeed she is destined to be a dignified school ma’am.
