CLARENCE ELLISON—“SCRUFFY” A great leader in the Tannery Tough Baseball Team and perhaps some day the star twirier for the New York Yarilcs. He is also one of Port's best linemen on the football squad. He is a quiet fellow until he comes to Spanish Class and then, Oh Boy! You’d think the Nicaraiiga rebellion had started again. He is a willing worker when it comes to helping the class earn money for the Washington •Trip. His future ambition is not known, but we hope it will be a success. T MARGARET EARNER—“FAT” Distinguished among her classmates because of her excessive weight. She is one of the outstanding gfcflfcfe of the champion basket ball team of 1928. She is frequently seen in the Prof’s office after school. We wonder why? She is very jolly and always ready for a lot of fun. She has a very beautiful voice and is often seen on the . fage rendering solos. She is an active member on all committees and always willing to work. Her future ambition is to be a physical educator, and here’s to your success, Fat. RUTH PERM—‘ ‘ RUTHIT A Ruth, being one of the most popular girls in high school, has been an inspiration to the whole class. When discouraged all we need is a taste of her good nature. When it comes to playing the piano she can’t be beaten. She is always the life of the party, and her witty remarks are enjoyed by all. Ruth has held many class offices, and can be depended upon to give the best she has, which is much better than the average. “Goodby, Ruth. It won’t be long now,” as of course He is hoping. ROBERT FORTNER—1-BOB’’ Bob’s approach toward the schoolhouse from his home at Wrights can easily be detected by his rambling “flivver.’’ Just the same he gets there and uses his time to the best advantage when he does. The above statement is confirmed by his being elected a member of the National Honorary Society. Preparing his lessons and speaking are hi-? hobbies. His future success, no doubt, lies in the field of agriculture, and we wish him lots of luck and success.

NATALIE CHESBRO—“NAT” Natalie may also be classed among the few talented literary members of the class of '28. She has won prizes from her writings, and is now on the Bugle staff as Senior reporter. One of the outstanding characteristics ot this lass is her frankness. She is not ashamed to give her honest-to-goodness opinion on any subject regardless of what her hearers may think or how much they criticize. Every member of the class will miss her favorite expression, EDGAR COLEMAN—“GARHEART” One of the most popular boys of our class. Always waiting with a helping hand to do some service to the class. This was proved when he was elected one of the members of the National Honorary Society. At all dances and school activities Edgar is sure to be present to show all the girls a good time. His favorite flower is the “Marguerite,” a flower not so common but that which holds a very prominent place in his heart. Edgar has been an outstanding leader since his Freshman year. He is “not at the top, but climbing.” and we know that he will soon be at the top. AVROM DICKMAN—‘‘DICK,, The salesman of the class. Dick can make a sale where all others fail. If you doubt this statement just let him get sight of you when he has something to sell. Our prophesy is that youMl buy it! Our genius has imitative ability as shown by his success on committees and satisfactory filling of class offices. To top off his high school career he built up a dance orchestra composed of high school fellows with Dick himself at the piano. From the piano he is going to the pipe organ, and we hope to be enjoying his music over the radio soon. He seems to prefer the “Long” notes. GORDON EDGAR—“BUMPY” The treasurer of our class. The class showed their appreciation of his good work when they re-elected him. Although he is not very big, Bumpy has proved himself efficient on the football field. He is a very reliable chap and never causes any trouble to the teachers. We are somewhat doubtful as to his future occupation but it is rumored that he strongly leans toward a “Baker.”

GEORGE GRABE—“GRABA” Our class president. George has always worked hard for his class, but still never neglects his school work. He is a very quiet chap and the fair sex does not interest him. He is one of the members of the National Honorary Society and has shown his merit on the football field as McKean county’s best center. He is a born leader and uses his good judgment in all his undertakings. He intends to continue his studies at State College, and we are sure that success awaits him there. LEONA HASKINS—“TONY” Leona is a very quiet girl—never having much to say, but when it comes to her school work, Leona sure is on the job. She is neve-satistied even by her best work. She always is thinking “It can be better.” She is willing to do all she can for her class, everyone admiring her for her high scholarship and dignity. We here wish you all kinds of success in your future undertakings, Leona. RONALD HUNTER—“PUSSY” Widely famous as a football player; and due to his lootball playing he has acquired many female friends, in nearby towns to whom he still sticks. Seme time ago Hunter began work on an aeroplane, and he sure has done some fine work on it. It is far from a toy and we all really expect him to fly soon. Pussy is a very “stand-pat ’ sort of a fellow and does not choose to be trampled on. Like the rest of the class Hunter has for his motto “Aim High.’ We hope he strikes his goal and we are sure he will. RUTH JOHNSON—'-DIZZY” A very lively member of the Senior Class. She deserves much credit for her faithful ser-vics in cheer-leading during the last three years. At all school activities Ruth is sure to be present and helps to make them a big success, as was shown at the football banquet this year. She is liked by everyone, especially the young men from nearby towns. A new boy friend every Monday morning. Her chief hobby is coming late for school, always stating for her excuse that the clocks must be wrong. And here, your classmates join in wishing you success, Ruth.
