ELLIS WILLIAMS Ellis moves leisurely about, tak- ing time to mingle with friends and repeat an occasional chemistry joke. He does not let his bass singing in the Glee Club interfere with blow- ing high notes on his trumpet for the orchestra. In addition Ellis is quite an authority on 'iSteam. JACK WILLIAMS Smoky, an all around fellow, is our football hero. Although in- eligible this year, his brilliant play- ing in previous years and his loy- alty to the team gave him the posi- tion of Honorary Captain. Jack's good looks and muscular build make him the envy of the fellows and the joy of the girls. JACK WILLIAMSON Jack and his big bass fiddle are very prominent orchestra members and well nigh inseparable friends. He travels over the Pennsylvania Railroad to many distant points- Elorida for the ball game. He and Clyde liven sessions in 207. Some day he will build a trans-Atlantic bridge. LOIS WRIGHT Lois Wright is A number I. Her scholastic record, her string of activities, and hosts of friends have all had a hand in placing her on top. Although Lowie may feign dignity, the sparkle in her eyes teaches us differently. Of late she has become very much interested in the Track Team, i VXILLIAM WYNN Iii Blll, better known as Hank, is as he is tall. Mr. Stroup's xjght hand man, he may be seen at odd hours working on the stage. Constant companions are Dick, Bob, and Chuckfnot to mention a certain Junior, Floods are ob- noxious to Hank. HELEN YOST If you consider Helen a very sedate member of the class, you have never seen her in a gay mood. An attractive blue-eyed blond, she is careful of details. One notices her appreciation of others, especially of a certain member of that clan across the river. EMMA WILLIAMS Emma is generally quiet, but has such an admirable air that she always creates an attraction. She is studious, and ever willing to help. Emma possesses so great a capacity for amiability that she de- serves rightly to be one among these dignified seniors. NANCY WILLIAMS Petite, generous, and happy- hearted is Nancy, who is a part of one of our sets of twins. Nancy can usually be found with one of the Yost girls, laughing and having a gay time, She is one of S. H. S's. vocalists and has sung on the air. One of her hobbies, and one well accomplished, is dancing. CLYDE WRIGHT The original i'Great American Tourist, Clyde has covered a lot of territory Cby the P. R. R., of courseb. Between being Miss Bloomfrelds chief worry and keep- ing up his reputation as the Wm, Penn Sheik, he is kept busy. Clyde's name is frequently to be seen on the Honor Roll. BETTY WYNN A Winsome twin is our Bettina, always in the midst of things. She is never far from C1reggie, and since she has such a line soprano voice, she is one of the pillars of musical society in S. H. S. One of her most absorbing interests is a certain someone in far-off Cali- fornia. MARGARET YOST Twins? No, nor are you seeing double Q nevertheless they are always together, and the twin com- plex holds. They even dress alike. Meg has a disposition to go with her outward display of happiness. The inevitable man is Robby, of Aliquippa. RALPH ZEWE We have one real lover of the outdoors-that is Ralph. Nature appeals to him. Last year he and his pal took second on our Amateur Hour with a representation of farm life. This interest shows also in his bluff and genial manner. We know he enjoys life.
