His studiousness, how- ever, never prevents him from having a good time, for he has one On first meeting Chook, one might think him a bit bashful, but as soon as the ice is broken you will find that he is a pretty nice guy, his personality being such that he gets along well with everyone he meets. For pastime and sport Buck'l goes to the woods or stream, where he can bag a bunny or hook a fish as well as the best of 'em. During the winter his interests turn toward ice skating and skiing.

Herk, to everyone, is one of our Cheerleaders who helped cheer our teams to many victories this year, But to the gang, Herk is a mirth leader, who has led so many of our parties to successful climaxes. Aside from this rather strong attraction for parties, however, Herk is a rabid hiking fan. And we are not disclosing any deep secrets when we say that his companions on these jaunts have been girls and boys. To Herk nothing is quite the success it could be if there is not a quantity of fudge around. His motto is, What is life without fudge, and me eating it. ' Next year Herk is going to attend Indiana State Teachers Col- lege. May you be very successful in preparing for your future vocation, Irwin, and may you have a good time doing it. Fifteen

Eleanor Suzanne Bender ' Commercial Course Commercial Club, 4, Red Cross, 3, 4, A., 3, 4. M ay you live all the days of your life. Eleanor came to us from DuBois last year. Since she came here, she has made quite a place for herself among her friends. Around school she is easily identified by her bangs and her smiling, gay ex- pression. She is usually heard talking over the latest development in the orchestra , how practice went, the new pieces, or the latest engage- ments it has. From the sound of it, one would almost suppose that the orchestra was the greatest interest of her life. Eleanor's plans for the future center around music. Judging from the time she spends on it, the orchestra will become very popular. Best wishes to our little girl from DuBois from the class of '38, Fourteen Anna Bennett Commercial' Course Ir.

Anna tells us she would like to continue her commercial work. We know she will make some one an excellent secretary. Best of luck, Anna!

'HA true lover of sports. Dave is that important member of our football team whom we feel could take his place as manager on the all-state eleven. Any Satur- day we could see him tearing on to the field with buckets of refresh- ments for the players. Although he is greatly interested in athletics, you would not know it by his bearing. Dave is always calm, and unruffled, never loud or obtrusive. Brownie is interested very much in fishing, swimming, and hiking. He likes best to hike in the woods. In a year or so we will likely find Dave in Penn State Forestry School. Best wishes, Dave Henry L. Brown Scientific Course Red Cross, 1, 2, 3, 45 A, A., 1, 2, 3, 4, Boys' Glee Club, 4. Au honest man, close buttoned to the drain. Henry is one of the taller Seniors who breaks his silence with a deep, very deep, bass voice, a voice that he uses to good advantage in the Boys' Glee Club. Hen'l is an ardent sport fan, and the contest that is played without his presence is a rare one. We might add that he is the object of hidden admiration of those girls who like the strong and silent type. Henry has not named the school to which he will go, but when the choice is made, We feel sure that his future vocation will find an opening for him. Good luck, Hen, Sixteen Thomas Calabrese General Course A. A., 3, 4. In ourselves our fortune lies, Life is what we 'make it. 'fToml' is the boy whom many of us envy and admire because of his dark, beautiful, wavy hair. Not only the girls, for we have heard a few boys wishing they had it. He also possesses two dark blue eyes he can be proud of. Tom is hardly ever seen alone. He usually has two or more friends with him to stir up some lun. Tom'l is not noted for his extreme height, but cheer up Tom, there is lots of room to grow. L'Tommy has not expressed any plans for the future, but the best wishes of P. H. S. go with you.
