v 'V ' 5 CATHE INE HOUGHTON fVivid Kitty, who wants to be a private secretary drawing a pretty nice salary, rates carrots and boys quite low on her list of interests. Balancing these aversions, tennis and golf take a bow as the lady's preferences. WILLIAM HRABELSKI Bill is vice-president of his home- room this term. His hobbies are stamp collecting, playing baseball, and sketching freehand. The movies are tops, too. He plans to become a bank president when he finishes his senior year. NANCY HUME A particip t in all art activities, Nan has held the offices of secretary, treasurer, and president in her home- room. She boldly announces that she dislikes the boys. Notice, how- ever, boys is plural. She is on the PIERREAN art staff. KOVER HUDSON According to his friends, Kover has made great strides in the art of bowl- ing. As a Service Corps member, he patrols the halls of our domain, and runs for ice cream when he is hungry. FRANCES JOHNSON Frannie is planning to enter a hair- dressing school in February, and expects plenty of customers from the class of january, 1940. Her hob- bies are working with flowers, movies, and dancing. She has been 12A representative for homeroom 217, and is a typist on the PIERREAN staff. fu-1 RUSSELL HURLOCK Blond Russell has worked with the Service Corps, and says that his lucky star points definitely to his being a millionaire some day. He wants to specialize in airplane work after a course at Wharton's. UTH JONES Little Ruth jones has sweet dim- ples and a nice smile. She is presi- dent of her homeroom, and likes good old American dancing and football games. Big bandanas are her favorite headgear and she can guzzle cokes with the best of them. EFFERS Bob is very interested in Latin and chemistry, and hopes to study medi- cine. He spends most of his spare time reading about it. Bob is a great football fan and likes to play it himself. J Kwai p K .J pppppi pk .eytt 44 I S.. 2 fi? I if . .,x WJ , HU .. f ' af' I MIKE KIRWIN - ' After playing school baseball for three years, Mike would like to join a professional team. He has been on the basketball and football teams, too, and is now homeroom president. Collecting souvenirs and reading biographies interest him. ETT N eannette, who played th heroine in the senior play, has been active in dramatics and music throughout her school days. She is mistress of the robes for the choir. Horses, dogs, and books are high on her favorite list. 3'.AAM.e.L FRANCIS KNOWLES Nagging women and bragging fel- lows do not appeal to Francisg but because he loves animals, he plans to be a jockey or a horse trainer. Wforking in the machine shop, hunt- ing, and trapping are others of Francis' activities. h DOROTHY KNIGHT Dinky, as we know her aroun school, is an associate editor of the PIERREAN. She is a member of the Honor Society and Chem Club, and plans to enter college. She is also vice-president of her homeroom. DAVID L Dave, whose favorite sport is foot- ball, says that he can surely smack his lips at apple pie. His hobbies are swimming, skiing, and radio, but he doesn't like spinach or trol- ley cars. Down with Communism! is his frequent remark. ELSIE MARDECZ Dancing, singing, and drawing in- terest Elsie more than school, study, and homework. She'd like to be somebody's smiling secretary some- day, after a business school course. fBut, Elsie, you MUST study if you want to be a success, etc., etc.J KEMER LEFLER Kemer says disgustedly, Hitler couldn't grow a mustache, so he bought a mop. He is an usher, homeroom vice-president, and Serv- ice Bureau member. Females, slow driving, red lights, and detention hall irk him no end. N- We lQvxxcXl,,i' fm-afpfxgaw-oz! ERNA McDOWELL Mickey was class representative for three terms, and in 1oB, secretary of her homeroom. She has partici- pated in basketball, ping-pong, and volley ball.

GEORGE NOLL 1 lfl'-' f v LILLIAN Lillian twice served as class repre- sentative. She is home room vice- president this term and has played class basketball. She fancies danc- ing, clothes, and jewelry, but her more adventurous side chooses The Hurricane as tops in fiction. FRANCIS LEUZE As captain of the Sports Service Corps and a member of the Honor Society, he plans to go into office work and then travel over the con- tinent. As for hobbies, Frannie chooses photography and sports. AKSORENCQ MARVEL Unlike the average person, Florence dislikes walking and singing. She has been active as treasurer of her homeroom and a member of the Service Corps, and the senior play cast. Collecting postcards, swim- ming, and dancing are her hobbies. OLIVER LEWIS Oliver, the bellboy in the senior play, is president of his homeroom. And does he play a mean trumpet! He enjoys all sports and outdoor life. Very soon he plans to enter avia- tion adventure. DORIS MAXWELL Hard-working Doris is now editor- in-chief of the Clarion, and her lovely speaking voice won her the position of class orator. She has served on the Student Council, and is in the Royal Masque. She dislikes untidiness. Strongly finds as JAMES MEGINNISS opposed to iitterbugs, Jim a hobby his music. This member of the orchestra, who, by the way, thinks the navy is all right, plans to become a business admin- istrator. He loves to eat. S K-4,44 4'1Av OROTHY MORAN A 12A representative, Dot plans to enter the Held of interior decorat- ing. A faithful attendant of the football games, she says her favorite color is blue. We know she must like gray with the blue! 'ftjcqal FRED MILLAR Fred is a fresh-air fiend, so stuffy classrooms make him feel rather closed-in-on. Sports, sea scouting, and out-door life in general are his hobbies. He is an Honor Society man and a PIERREAN staff member. iizf ' Q, ,W H' ' WW btw fi. in lf. 4 ' -,', A L ns.. ., 1. wr We I f S e i r it 'L - 4V.0-Ovlfvfff WOODROW MOYLE . Would you believe it's true when we say that the biggest fellow on the P. S. football team, who, by the way is a grand sport, doesn't like spinach? To learn a trade is Woody's plan for the future. ffm PEGGY MORGAN Peggy is president of her homeroom this term. Her hobby is reading, especially books by Grace Living- ston Hill. She likes science, and her favorite color is red. After graduation she'll be a working girl.

Ted's hobby is shooting. He intensely dis- likes the New York Yankees. PEGGY NOLAN This shy lass doesn't like to go to the front of the room to make oral talks. She'd much rather read, or hike, or listen to music. She is pres- ident of homeroom 516. JOHN NATALE Although interested in sports, the choir and band have occupied a lot of john's time, while business work, travel, and a brunette seem to fill his plans for the future. Ann Sher- idan is his favorite oomph girl. .fdplnkz Powsavx SOPHIE ROMA Sophie, the artistic little miss who plans to become a commercial artist, finds great pleasure in designing and making her own clothes. She is a member of the French Club, PIERREAN staff and is vice-president of her homeroom. Hunting and swimming hold George's interest. He plans to work in a gas station and become a grease monkey when his school days have at last been completed, Homeroom 332 elected George as treasurer. JULIA scoU'r julia should some day realize her ambition: to be an x-ray technician. She would like-yes, it's true- more lab periods in chemistry! Prompting the senior play and being an Honor Society member have been Julia's school activities. Page I0
