GEORGE SHOEMAKER Sh0 fy,, Classical Shorty is an uncomplaining, quiet, little chap, never growling about the homework that is piled on him. He is ever ready to help someone, and never asks any favor in return. If you want to see him in action, visit the American Stores, where he is one of the chief attractions. One may easily see by his drawings in this Blue and White that he will become a great success as an engineer. SARA SHORTS Sara Commercial Sara is one of the wittiest girls in the Senior Class, full of fun and jokes for everyone. Her smiles are always seen, for no one can darken her spirits. She is also a member of a very talkative bunch and is always chattering about something. She is learning to be a bookkeeper and the class wishes her success, for we know that she will succeed in anything she undertakes. JOSEPH SILKNITTER Joe Commercial Joe is one of the happy-go-lucky boys in the Senior Class. He is full of fun at all times and no amount of gloom can dampen his spirits. Joe is a musician, playing both classical and jazz music very well. He also excels in bookkeeping. After gradu- ating from High School, he intends to serve in this capacity. The Class of '27 wishes him success in everything he undertakes. ELLEN SIMONS Si Commercial Just a plain, old-fashioned girl with a sweet and pleasant smile! That's Ellen Simons, better known as SL She's one of the bright lights in the Commercial Department. Si's always willing to help out, no matter what is to be done. As she is planning to be a nurse, we wish her the best pos- sible success, but we believe that she won't last long in this profession. Page Twenty nme

HAZEL SCHEFFEY Hazel,' Commercial Like the cheerful cherub, Hazel usually de- tects the funnier side of a situation. She is quite adept at flattering people-beware! If women who don't fancy felines are not to be trusted, trust Hazel with your darkest secret-she has a weakness for cats. Jefferson Hospital is her destination-but don't misunderstand-she will not be ministered unto, she will be administering. HELEN SEEDERS Hubs General When Helen doesn't know what to do, she laughs-why waste time worrying? The doors of the green Hudson have had a hard time of it since Helen learned to drive. Her fingers have twinkled lightly over the ivory keys in accompaniment to the Glee Club and also to many soloists. Like all ar- tists, she has some eccentricities. What she likes, she lovesg and what she doesn't like, she hates. And that's that! DoRoTHY SHILLADY Dot General You've often seen this sparkling young miss, l'm sure. Who could miss her flashing eyes, her laughing mouth, her great big dimples? She's been in our class only a year, having come to us from Chester County. Dot is going to take up agricul- ture at Penn State, and we know that she will rev- olutionize farming in her home town district. ROBERT SELTMANN Bob General Bob is one of the huskies of the Senior Class. You can see him and his flivver on the streets at most any time. At this time his interests are cen- tered on a little blonde whom we are sure is known to all. Bob is going to Colorada this summer and expects to bring back a black bear coat. He expects to be a textile expert when he has settled down to biz.', ' Page Twenty-eight

AALICE SMITH Giggles Commercial Alice is a most attractive girl and always has a good word for everyone. She works, too, outside of school days, and can usually be found behind one of the counters at Newberry's. Alice is usually Hitting around the office, using most of her time vamping Prof. Lengel, teasing Prof. Showalter, or hunting N. Hoffman. We do not think she will sur- vive long as a lady in waiting, for her most at- tractive features are sure to ensnare some one soon. LEONA SMITH Smitty,' General Leona hails from the prosperous township of Sanatoga. She is a well-known and active member of the P. H. S. club. For two years she has played forward on the class basketball team. She expects to take up nursing some time in the future and has the best wishes of the class for her success. MARIE E. SMITH Betty General Marie is one of the most popular girls in the Senior Class. She has made herself well known by her appearance in singing both in the auditorium of the school and in outside entertainments. Betty has also taken part in several plays given by the school, among which was the Senior Class Play, in which she acted nIost creditably. PEARL SMITH Pearl Commercial Pearl is one of the more modest members of our class. She is one of those very few people who possess that easy pleasant smile, and who are always ready to give a kind word, or lend a helping hand. Pearl, though somewhat shy, is a very good speak- er, and has proven this on many occasions-in class as well as elsewhere. Here is a lady that is not afraid of hard work. Her lessons are always pre- pared, regardless of their length or dilhculty. This characteristic will surely bring her success in what- ever she chooses as her life's work. We extend our good wishes to her. Page Thirty
