By his senior year every one knew better. He is active in home room activities. NORBERT BAKER belongs to the track team and his home room basketball team. He is one half of a famous Damon and Pythias friendship. ALBERT BARNETT'S main interest is in the line of music. He has been a member of the band for four years.

IUANITA BARNHART has been interested in dromatics during her years of high school. She has belonged to the Dramatic Club for four years. Her pleasant disposition makes her a coveted pal. DEAN BARRON as a Dutch in Growing Pains made the girls' hearts flutter, and all the time we had thought he was a quiet little country boy. 'k 'k 'lr if 'lr PEARL BARRON shines in commercial work. She spends much time assisting in the office and is always willing to help her friends, as well. WALDO BARRON is full of highly concentrated energyf-once in a while directed toward his lessons.

3Zlcl'C'Cllfll7 - . . THE SENIOR CLASS '--je Divx' liisid nt len li voni'ers with Vice- l'i'm-si- de-nt Reed, S4-c'1'e1:ii'y Edna. Ealy Hlld Treas- urer Snyder upon com- mencement affairs. VN the fall of the year 1934 Somerset High School had a blessed C7 event. This was the birth of our class which now, after four years of hard work, is about to pass beyond these portals of learning, We often wonder how we ever went through some of our trials and tribulations. The degree of complexity may be seen by carefully scrutinizing the wrinkled forehead of Wilbert Beachy who for four consecutive years has piloted our ship of state through rough seas until we are now calmly gliding into the harbor of graduation. What are some of the things, however, that make Wilbert and our most efficient secretary, Edna Ealy, beam with pride when the Class of 1939 is mentioned? We started out as did most of our illustrious predecessors-meek, humble freshmen, who were swallowed up in the bustle of the high school. As hustling sophomores, we moved into the social limelight when we acted as host to the seniors at the Sophomore-Senior Dance. When the following year rolled around, we found ourselves the mighty conquerors of the rest of our classes in both of the mental quizzes that took place in the auditorium. This year our ingenuity prompted us to try an entirely different idea of decoration at the Iunior Prom. We acted as host to the senior class under a densely wooded ceiling against an Indian background. Q As our high school life is rapidly drawing to a close, our inven- tiveness has again inspired us to make history at Somerset High School. This we are doing by being the first class in history to sponsor an Easter dance in this high school. With such a glorious past the class of 1939 is about to leave their school days behind and take on the more serious affairs of life. How much greater our achievements will be in the future if we are made to feel that the guardians to whom we shall intrust our sacred cap and gown on Move-Up-Day is equipped to accept the duties which we shall have bestowed upon them. i161

BETTIE BERKEBILE proved her ability to lend a hand as student coach for the senior class play. Throughout her four years in high school, dramatics held her interest. LETHA BERKEY spent most of her four years in the library. We believe there is not a volume she hasn't read. MARY BITTNER is one of the few good pun makers. She is generally in a good humor and can always make us the same way. THELMA BITTNER will make some man a good secretary-or a good wife. She has worked hard, taking time off only now and then for a little fun. 4 4 4 4 4 IANE BOOSE is interested in artistic things-she's done some lovely work in oils. We think she's the perfect type of person to tease because she is so easily flusteredflustered. FLORENCE BOWLIN. whose chief ambition was to become a drum major, has had her dream fulfilled in her senior year. She also likes dramatics and has been a member of the Dramatics Club for two years as well as prompter for the class play. DOROTHY BOWMAN'-Still waters run deep-they say. Dorothy is a perfect example. Her ambition or destination is not known to us'-but we hope they will be parallel. MILDRED BOWMAN is Somerset High's Grace Moore. She had the lead in the operetta for two years and has been a member of the trio and quartet. Was there ever a musical activity in which she didn't take part? 4 4 4 4 4 ARDITH BOYER has been interested chiefly in dramatics. She has belonged to the dramatics clubs and has been in several plays while in school. As a make-up artist she has always been in great demand. CYNTHIA BRANT. When Cynthia smiles. the world smiles with her. She can always cheer us up. Her excellent work has always cheered up despairing art teachers, too. IACK BRANT'S greatest interest is building model aeroplanes. He has been a member of both band and orchestra for four years, too. Iack's put-putting along on his scooter is one of S. H. S.'s big sights. LILLIAN BRANT is interested in Home Economics. Is there a man connected with the domestic work? Iudging from her work, we'd say, O fortunate one! How do you rate?
