I 4. aw Q 'KN-5 ENS CNE ENS K5 SEWI H1 Q55 Qi-25 QM? il!-QQ QM? ELIZABETH CAVIN One of our most ardent students. Elizabeth is consistently faithful to all her lessons: for not one moment can she be found resting on the job. Her efforts prove very valu- able to her, for she is seldom with- out a ready answer to any question that may arise in class. and she never fails to recite. Who knows but what the future may find Eliza- beth a teacher? RUTH CHALLIS Originality is the keynote to Ruth's personality. Be it dance. play, or what have you, her advice and services are always sought, and are always most graciously given. She's an artist. and yet our most athletic girl. You'll find her at every social event, high school or otherwise. for not a few have been charmed by her winning ways. A splendid executive, she has served in more than one Girl Reserve cabinet. GEORGE H. CHUBB, JR. Chubbie is our most famous athlete, and participates with equal skill in all the interscholastic sports. He does not limit his endeavor to athletics, however, and the discus- sions he raises in Economics and English are truly classic. and are convincing evidence of his versatil- ity. Popular with everyone, some one has imposed upon Cherb's good-natured friendliness by sug- gesting he write his memoirs to be called My Life in Sewickley High or Me and Mr. Thome. ROBERT COCHRAN As manager of both the football and basketball teams, Bob has proved himself a consistent and actively loyal supporter of our major sports. In golf, too, he seems adept at turning in winning scores. Bob also scribbles reports for The Oracle in such a way as to reflect the greatest credit on himself and the columns. Active as a member of the Stage Guild, the speaking stage, too, has laid claims to his talents. FRANCES CHALLIS If by chance you don't know Fran, you're missing one of life's happy experiences. Pretty and pleasant, she is our best example of a dignified Senior. We find her ever showing what the well-dressed girl should wear: her interest in clothes may account for her skill with a needle. As much at ease with a racket as a brush, Fran has shown no small skill at both tennis and sketching. With this. and that, and the other thing. Frances has a busy time. ETHEL LOUISE CHUBB Just as she can be depended upon to bring home blue ribbons from horse shows, so Ethel excels in other lines. Her all-round ability and dependability won her a membership in the National Honor Society, and if you saw Jazz and Minuet and The King Rides By, there will be not the slightest shade of doubt in your mind as to her dramatic talents. As for her dancing--well. ask the boys about that! She's truly versatile. ISABEL CLARK High above the common herd, Clarkie is usually seen with her allies. Anne or Fern. Although gifted as typist, and lyricist Cwit- ness the Class Songl, she is better known for that cackle, so often heard in study hall and so great a mystery to the teachers. Anyone who saw her on St. Patrick's Day can testify to her loyal support of the Emerald Isle! Peculiar girl, Isabel - for some reason, she regards the unusual 6760-A as her lucky number! JOE COOK Joe is one of Sewickley High's more prominent bids for athletic fame, as his list of activities will readily show. Football. basket- ball. baseball and what have you! Full of pep, mischief, and fun- that's Joe. Good looking, good dancer-what more do you want? Joe gets along fairly well with his teachers, especially Mr. Thome fwhat would Solid be without him?J. So far his heart seems to have remained whole - but who can tell? Fifteen QWAQQWAQQWAQQWAQQWAQ I 9 1 2

GRS K5 GXSQ5 ENS ENS SEWIHI QM? QE QE EEE GBE FLORENCE J. AZAR Bunny, as she loves to be callcd, is quite a popular young lady. Flo prefers the boys and good times to studies. She finds Life both pleasant and attractive: not least among her pleasures is driving the Ford. What, we won- der, can be the attraction in New York? Whatever Cor whoeverh it may be, Flo pops off to the big city every once in a while. RUTH A. BENZENHOEPER Ruth just can't keep her pep from bubbling over-a case of blues simply cannot be while she's around. Popular and active, she never passes up a dance or social, and has helped along many a party with her contagious laughter. That she is capable of things more serious she showed by her excellent performance in The King Rides By. Ruth manages to survive through several of her classes with- out Frances. ANTONIO BOVA Tony is one of the biggest men in the class of '32, speaking both literally and figuratively. Because of his willingness to assist in any school activity, Tony's smile and good nature are familiar to every one in school. His ability to play football is recognized by all-the team, the students, and even his opponents! He also par- ticipated in the trombone contests of the Forensic. League, in which he performed nobly. GEORGE A. CAMPBELL George is one of the favored few when it comes to riding in Willard Doty's car: in fact, if the truth be told, George can be found with Willard in classes, between classes, and out of school: some- one says that they even take out library books together! A very unobtrusive chap, George is, never- the less, quite well-known: this fame was helped along by Chubbie and the Algebra III class last year. where George gained renown for Wlt. Fourteen PAUL BALLES Pete has distinguished himself in not a few school activities, but his best work was in connection with Sewickley High drama. Not only is he familiar with stagecraft. but he acts equally well-remem- ber how that trim uniform became him as Captain Wheatley in The King Rides By? Full of fun and always pleasant, Pete can enter into good times as few of us can. and his splendid work as social chair- man of the Hi-Y will not soon be forgotten by that group. JAMES E. BOYD Here we have Mighty, and how well that name its him. Jimmy is certainly versatile when it comes to athletics as witness his selection on the all star team. Jimmy's pluck and grit carried the various teams through many a tough spot to come out on top. Socially Jimmy is much in demand also, and he seems to enjoy him- self particularly well in the com- pany of a Sophomore--if it isn't the girl, why then it is Don. BERNICE A. BRAWLEY The most nonchalant person in all Sewickley High is Bernice. She's never been known to be in a hurry. and she drawls out every- thing she says. All she lacks is a Murad. Bernice has rendered valu- able service as a member of the debating team and on The Oracle staff. In spite of all evidences of an extra supply of gray matter, she has a ready smile and is just about everyone's pal. SHIRLEY H. CAMPBELL What would the Senior French class do without Shirley to quote rules and idioms? Shirley pro- fesses to be bored most of the time: but that she can be energetic is proved by her debating and her Wizardry at bridge. For sparkling conversation, she has no peer, and if you want to argue, choose some- one more easily out-talked, and more likely to be vanquished. Per- haps that is why she's such a good debater-a fascinating one at any rate. QWAQ Q723 QW? QWYQ QWAQ I Q i 1 GND GND SEEKS STKE QNX

DE COULAZ While playing his violin, or while conversing with some French student Qyes, they all find talking with Bob is the best practicel, Bob maintains a happy attitude, and refuses to let anything mar his pleasant outlook. Much as he likes his music, his real hobby is scribbling verses, and his work is really good as some of his poetry in another part of this book will prove. Bob radiates friendliness- so may he long enjoy life. liberty. and the pursuit of happiness! JAMES DOUGHTY A giggle - then a masculine laugh-what's that? Oh, it's Jim teasing the girls again, and they don't seem to mind it especially. Perhaps it's because of Jim's engag- ing personality and his line of crisp cracks. He is also noted for his athletic prowess and his optimistic attitude-nothing ever seeming to bother or disturb him. Jim suc- ceeds a long line of Doughtys in jollity and fun. EDWARD ELLIS Ed is one of the famous ball players from Ellis Hill, which seems to have a monopoly on the major portion of Sewickley's fly-chasers. Eddie is, as yet, entirely unaffected hy the girls' whims and wiles - which is certainly a good way to be. At times, Eddie exhibits a spirit of peacefulness and repose which extends into a spirit of per- fect optimism and relaxation. KENNETH EMMERT Here we have K, one of the most industrious and dependable members of this great and illus- trious class of '32. Yet he never rushes hither and thither furiously, but seems to accomplish his tasks in a rather leisurely manner. He fully demonstrated his musical abil- ity and his capacity for comedy in that celebrated Minstrel and Stage Show, which uncovered a great deal of our hitherto hidden talent. Sixteen WILLARD DOTY Willard is the poet laureate of the Senior Class, and he bids fair to rival Shakespeare and Milton. He is one of the more studious members of the Senior class, but we really suspect the appearance of diligence. It does not seem to interfere with Willard's fun-loving propensities. His jokes will come at opportune moments. He seems to enjoy his Buick and De Molay more than anything else. JACK DREYBUS May we present our George Arliss, our Lionel Barrymore, our Walter Huston. or whom have you? Jack is perhaps our most accom- plished and versatile actor, as one may easily judge from a survey of the many different roles he has portrayed. However, Jack does not limit his entertaining ability to dramatics: we all appreciate the fact that many a dull class has been enlivened by his witty and timely comments. JOHN ELLIS John seems to be one of those big, silent, strong men we hear so much about. His ability on the gym Hoor and the baseball Held is a characteristic which is envied by many of the lesser lights who are less capable than he. But athletics are not the only Held in which John excels: his talent for music was thoroughly demonstrated by his excellent performance in the Minstrel and Stage Show. J. RUSSELL EMMERT Russ is one of those fellows who seem to enjoy always being with a few choice friends-certain ones in particular, of course, but everyone in school finds him ready for fun. His conversation makes him interesting. and so the girls and he get along famously. Russ has the bel air. and to live up to his manly grace, is always impec- cably attired. His great weakness is to talk with Art in study hall. QWE SWE QWDQ QWAQ QWDQ I 9 3 2 GND QANDQAKD SNS GND
