LA SALTIANNA J Joseph scorr Track 1, 2, 3; President 3; Orchestra 3, 4; French Circle 3, 4; “In Cherry Time” 4; Circulation Manager LaSalti-anna 4. This is Scott. You don’t know him, you can’t know all of him. Scott is many-sided, versatile. He acts, plays the banjo, and is a speaker of no mean ability. The opinions he has often make the rest of us sit up and take notice. He has that faculty of probing a problem to the very foundation and then analyzing every atom of it until satisfied. Interesting. 1 ROBERT SHIRLEY French Circle 3; Advertising Committee LaSaltianna 4. I arge, dove-like eyes has our Robert, but they are misleading. Although meek and gentle in appearance he has been known to cause quite a disturbance in French class and quite a few arguments in mathematics, by the way —that’s his hobby, mathematics—and like Holmes we can say— “That boy with the grave mathematical look. VIRGINIA SHIRLEY Glee Club 1, 2; Orchestra 2; French Circle 3, 4; Health Club 4. A musical Miss is Virginia, capable of drawing forth fairylike melodies from her violin, but withal quie and retiring so that few are well acquainted with her. Virgil is her hoodoo for in spite of piteous pleas, Jupiter fails to endow her with the secret of understanding Latin. { 1, 2, 3; JAMES STEWART Track 1, 2, 3; Basketball Reserves 1, 2. 3; Glee Club 2; Orchestra 2. 3, 4; French Circle 3, 4; Vice-President 3; Basketball 4; Sports Editor LaSaltianna 4. Here is a fellow who always seems to be just getting ready for a nap. napping, or just awakening from one. He has a slow lazy drawl that suggests waving palms and leisurely caravans meandering slowly across the desert. But at times Jim is very wide-awake and during those moments he accomplishes a great deal. Page twenty 1 929

LA SALTIANNA ANASTASIA RABICKOW Donora 1, 2, 3; Health Club 4; Stenographer Salt Shak er 4. Anastasia having: exhausted all the educational facilities of Donora came to Saltsburg to graduate. A bit of old Russia is she, bringing to mind Cossacks stamping and swaying to weird music, their feet encased in shiny boots, and—speaking of boots have you noticed the eye-catching pair that protect our “Nellie’s” pedal extremities from the biting frost and cold north winds? WILSON RHEA Track 1, 2, 3, 4; Basketball 4; Sports Editor Salt Shaker 4; Advertising Committee LaSaltianna 4. Noted among a favored few for the way he can drive a Chevrolet at break-neck speed as calmly as the rest of us eat a chocolate sundae. Very adept at turning curves on two wheels, and an ardent advocate of the theory of “stepping on the gas.” “Beanie” has thus far miraculously escaped a court summons. THELMA ROSENSTEEL Glee Club 1, 2; Track 1; Secretary 1, 2; “College Cin derella” 3; French Circle 3, 4; Health Club 4; Circulation Committee LaSaltianna 4. If Clara Bow has “it” then this blue-eyed lass has a large share of “that, them, and those.” Demure and sweet, never boring one with too much chattering or disappointing one with too little. Pleasing and attractive to the eye. Thelma has had her share in wounding the hearts of our high sc hool Romeos but the wound is never too deep nor too last’ng to harm. EARL RUPERT Track 1, 2, 3; Basketball 3, 4; Circulation Committee LaSaltianna 4. Tall, broad-shouldered, athletic. Earl brings to mind tales of strong gladiators thrilling Roman crowds with deeds of valor and courage. Very popular with basketball fans. With all his strength “Rupe” is very peaceful, only now and then being provoked into quick outbursts of temper which soon pass over, leaving him even more calm t.ian before. 1929 Page nineteen

 ANNA VENSEL Glee Club 1, 2; French Circle 3, 4; Health Club 4; Senior Reporter Salt Shaker 4. Anyone who knows Anna is aware of her pep, her dash, and her never-failing: sense of humor, and her boy friends. One day she’ll be in rhapsodies and the next day her feelings are laconically expressed thus—what’s the use of falling: in love? In spite of her affairs de la coeur, Anna is one of our best students when it comes to heavy assignments.
