JO-ANNE ROARBAUGH-This demure lass carries herself with grace and dignity. A striking brunette, she hails from the moun- tain section and is a very good sport. An ardent Home Economics student this damsel desires to travelg and is preparing for same by being an extensive reader. She also is quite good in the cooking line and loves to make apple pie. You will hear her singing Clair de Lune most every morning as she approaches her locker. We hear there is a reason for her song, and that reason might Bob up most anytime. However when it does, we're sure Jo-Anne will be in complete control of the situation. DOROTHY RYAN-A quiet girl with a pleasant personality is Cork who hails from Dudley and is proud of it. She has a special liking for office work and intends to further it. At present she is occupied down at Stonerstown with a certain Buddy . Her favorite song My Buddy. As to Cork's future she intends to enter Business College. VALENTINO SCARCIA- Vallee , who is our number one Saxophone player in the band, hails from the community of Dudley. He says his favorite pastime is working in the office so he can make eyes at the girls. However, we must admit he is excellent as mimeograph caretaker as well as in attend- ance reports. After graduation his plans are to become a maestro, and he is quite in- terested in Humor-que , the song. From past experience we are certain Vallee will come out on top as a leader. FRANK SI-IANK-Happy-go-lucky Shank is one of the short boys in the class. How- ever all good things come in small packages and this is true of Frank. His one love is Chemistry and for leisure he relishes a good hot brand of baseball. When dinner is served and Frank spys chocolate cake, that grin broadens and you immediately know it's his favorite dessert. Activity period is his best subject, each day at that time finds him and Gene Shuke busily entertaining the girls -any girl. Frank likes to sing for Senti- mental Reasons 1 and when questioned to that definite reason, he is silent. If silence gives consent, we would say-Go to it girls. JACQUELINE SHERLOCK- Still water runs deep may be applied to this gal from Puttstown. During her entire school career Jackie has been interested in Home Ec. and has applied it by being of service to many of the teachers in the evenings-namely Mrs. Hooper and Mrs. Garber. This requires a good deal of her time, but rumor has it that during these past three years she has found a little extra to devote to one particular man. Who he is or other details we have been un- able to learn-and Jackie won't tell.

BILL MEYERS-A tall, handsome, care- free lad is Bill who lives on a farm and journeys to S. L. all the way from Cherry- town. He greatly enjoys getting The Gang together and leisurely rolling along the road in the Chevie or truck. His dark curly hair makes him an easy heart-throb for any girl, but he fails to heed their Wolfess calls-all because of his own bashfulness. However, there will come a day when some lucky gal will win the lad, and he will have no chance to say no , Girls, the line forms to the right. WANDA PUCALA-Hailing from Defi- ance, this happy-go-lucky girl has really won her place in school activities. Whenever a project is mentioned, there you will find Wanda ready to give her all to help put it across. Wanda's favorite pastime is danc- ing and in this she excels. She is also gifted in art and has contributed many poster drawings for school affairs. Her one am- bition this year has been the class trip to Washington. Pucala's interests include sales- manship, Chemistry, and Home Ec. With all these-lucky will be the man who manages to cop Wanda. JONNILU RAMSEY-This is our class's Cute little blonde . She comes from the east side of town and is proud of it. Her chief occupation is driving Moitle fthe carl to school and is ably assisted by co-pilot Hooper as well as a host of others all crammed in. Jonnie's favorite sport is roller skating, and we understand she is quite good. She is a good dresser, dancer, and also drummer in the Band. We understand that after school is over she wants to go to Florida but we are betting that a certain Stonerstown fellow says the words that will change her mind. CHARLOTTE REED-Charlotte, who is better known to most of us as Lottie, hails from the Hollow. Lottie is one of our speedy typists and ought to make someone a very good Secretary. A melophone player in the band, she also plays the piano. Her favorite song is Star Dust . Her pastime in school is talking to a certain Senior boy in the hall. As to her future plans she is undecided. JEAN RHODES--Jean is a quiet but will- ing and cooperative young lady. She has taken the general course in high school and especially likes chemistry and salesmanship. She is the weather man of the class and after a rain she measures each foot-we mean each inch of rain for the Common- wealth. We predict that she will be a success as a farmeret, providing the right farmer comes along. Until then-well, Jean says she'll wait.

EUGENE Sl-IUKE- Gene is our brown- eyed lad who has plenty of curls on his head and plenty of girls on his mind. He hails from Six Mile Run but manages to get to Saxton quite often-not only during school but also at night. As to Gene's future plans he is undecided but as popular as he is with the girls we have an idea what they might be. We think Mrs. Shuke sounds pretty, don't you??? GLADYS SMITH-Gladys, another girl from Stonerstown is quite active in all social activities. At the present time she is em- ployed in Dr. Thomas' Dental Force. As to her favorite pastime, you either find her dancing or roller skating. After graduating she hopes to become a nurse. About time we get a nurse from our class-Huh?? CHARLES STAPLETON-Hailing from Woodcock Valley, Charles is one of the most widely traveled boys in the Senior Class. Al- ways in company with Meyers, the two lose very little time in covering territory. Charles likes' to read and hunt-especially something to eat. His favorite menu is pork chops and potatoes. His favorite subject is chemistry and his favorite car is a Plymouth and he likes to steal away alone when the urge gets him. Women are not in his line, but the would say with the line he has that he would have little difficulty with the fair sex should he choose to make the proper ap- proach. JAMES STINSON-This handsome bm- nette would be an excellent ad for Arrow Collars or shirts. Always well-groomed and with a pleasing personality our Jimmy will surely be a success at his one ambition to be a Salesman. Rumor has it that Mr. 57 will secure his service and if they do what a lucky firm. Stinson likes to drive the Buick Convertible, play basketball, and eat Chili and hot rolls. His eyes make many a girl's heart flutter and for a while we won- dered whether the South would win from the Northern gals. However, when Jimmy sings his favorite song At Sundown, we are sure he will be standing Pat for the dear old North. DOROTHY TAYLOR-Laughable, lov- able, Cootie. Every class has one and this class is no exception. With a cheerful smile that turns at times into a real laugh Taylor is a favorite of all. Her favorite subject is English, and you should see that gal play basketball. If you think girls are not expert as drivers cast an eye Tay1or's way as she whizzes by in her Old LiZzie. In what little spare time remains Cootie keeps in trim at the bowling alleys and enjoys eating butterscotch pie. Although she likes the song The Things We Did Last Summer, this student still insists there is no heart-throb, which we very much doubt.
