THELMA GUNCHEON Glee Club, 1, 2, Dramatic Club, 1, 2, Library Club, 3 Thelma is another girl who has taken an active part in chapel programmes. She seems to be especially talented along certain lines. She has a very sweet voice, and consequently has been in entertainments of various kinds. As a “bashful negro suitor”, the part she took in a play, Thelma scored a big hit. Having made a name for herself in high school Thelma, no doubt, will be outstanding in after-high school days. IRENE HANSON Glee Club, 1, 3 French Club, 2, 3 Latin Club, 1 “Ike” is the most talkative and deliberate person in our class. She is always ready with some pert and saucy remark, very often at someone else’s expense, but then, what’s a few pennies! Irene has always had clever ideas, many of which were enacted at the Freshman Reception. “Henrietta”, her car, is Irene’s most beloved and devoted friend, and is always faithful to the cause. HELEN HARDES Circulation Mgr. Tiger Lily Staff, 3 Gym Club Sec’y, 3 Science Club, 2 Latin Club, 1 Helen is one of the best liked girls in our class. She is seldom seen without her agreeable smile. She is always willing to help anyone she can and she belittles no one. She is one of our best students and never gives her teachers the least bit of worry. Helen’s suggestions are for the good of the class and always show deep consideration. Her classmates and many friends wish her all the happiness possible in her future life. ARTHUR JOHNSON F. F. A., 1. 2, 3 Sec’y, 3 Art is our yodeling cowboy! Why? Because our chapel programmes would be incomplete without a song or two from Art on his guitar and harmonica. Arthur has always been willing to cooperate with and aid the class in all of its accomplishments. Although he is an “Ag” boy. we are not certain that he will be an F. F. A. but are rather inclined to think that he will someday own a ranch of his own, ‘way out West on the Prairie. However, we know he’ll succeed, and we wish him all kinds of luck.

WILSON CUMMINGS Football, 1, 2, 3, Class President, 1, 3, Hi-Y, 2 Orchestra, 2. 3, Class Vice Pres., 2 Science Club, 3 Gym Sec’y. 2 Dramatic Club Treas. 1, Bugle Staff 1 Rochester’s loss was our gain when Bill came to good ol’ Port. Although Bill’s chief interest seems to lie outside the senior class (where? it is needless to say), he has been loyal to his class and a great benefit to it. He has been with us only three years but during that time he has capably served as class president for three semesters. This write-up really wouldn’t be complete if we didn’t mention Bill’s accomplishment as a drummer. HORTENSE ECKSTRAND Glee Club, 1, 2, 3, Sec’y 3 French Club, Treas., 2, 3 Latin Club, 1 Hortense is a charming blonde whose ancestors came from Sweden. Hortense’s sunny personality has reached out and grasped many true and steadfast friends. Her affection seems to extend farther than Port Allegany High School, when it travels 2 6 miles to Olean High School. Without Hortense, many things would be rather incomplete for she always adds plenty of life and brightness wherever she goes, and is also greatly welcomed. Because she is a good student, we may sum her up in seven letters, S-U-C-C-E-S-S. GERALD EDGREEN Basketball. 2, 3, F. F. A.. 1, 2. 3. Reporter. 2. 3 “Gerk” is one of our agriculture boys who intends to become one of our most modern farmers. Gerald was a valuable member of the basketball team for two years. He was high scorer in a number of games and his floor work was faultless. It didn’t make any difference to him whether he was playing guard or forward, he always played for the good of the team. Whatever “Gerk” undertakes after his graduation, he will be a big success. BERTHA EVANS Glee Club, 3 Math Club, 1 Math. Club Pres., 2; Sec., 3 Bertha is a friendly, likeable sort of person who goes about doing her work most proficiently and yet without any fuss about it. Her disposition falls to the bright side which wins for her many friends. That her school work is the least of her worries is shown in her excellent marks. She possesses a lovely singing voice and has many times added to our entertainments by her appearance in them. Bertha plans to be a nurse and will be a cheerful and successful one.

IVER JOHNSON Athletic Ass’n Treas., 3 Football, 2, 3 Hi-Y, 2. 3 Basketball, 3 Math Club, 1 Gym Club, 2, 3 Vice Pres., 3 Although small in size, Iver proved his versatility by being both a good student and a good athlete. lie came to us from Two Mile in the seventh grade and is seen riding on the school bus daily. Iver is one of the most bashful members of the class and believes in staying away from the opposite sex. He has had plenty of experience in handling money and has been both treasurer of the Athletic Association and of the class. JENNIE JOHNSON Math Club, 1, 2, 3 A Swede through and through! Jennie has a bright sunny disposition that we all admire; too, she is always willing to do her share in any class work we undertake. We might mention that Jennie is one of those who are usually seen riding down Arnold Avenue in Frank Meade’s car every noon. We don’t know what Jennie plans to do in the future but we are confident of her success. RUTH LANGWORTHY Executive Council Vice Pres., 3 Girls’ Sport Editor Tiger Lily Staff, 3 Basketball, 1, 2 Cheer Leader, 3 Dramatic Club Treas., 3 Class Sec’y, 2 Glee Club, 1, 3 Bugle Staff. 2 French Club, 2 Who can begrudge Ruth’s optimistic spirit? She brings radiant cheer wherever she goes and is welcome anyplace. Ruth is another one of our industrious members. Even tho’ she has been with us only three years, in that short time, she has proved her worth to us. We expect great things of Ruth, because when she goes after something she goes after it with a will and with great determination. ERVIN MANNING Class Treasurer, 2 Gym Club, 2, 3, Latin Club, 1 Football, 3 Would that we all could be as easy-go-lucky as Ervin! “Easy come, easy go”, may be his motto but he gets there just the same. He is an earnest chap, a friend to everyone. We all regret the time when the clamor of the engine of his old “Model T” died down and “Ervy” was seen walking instead of driving. However, he will probably get a new car the day his chip comes in. You can come around and give us all a ride, Ervy. Good luck to you!
