thirteen Katherine M. Bachmann Kay Ayita, President, '34, Report- ers, World, ORIOLE Staff, Dra- matics, National Honor, Class Play, Class Motto If you see a tall, slender blonde with her report card full of A's, it's Kay. This quiet miss, whose knowledge of Halleck's is the envy of the Senior B's, has de- cided to be somebody's secretary. All we can say is Lucky Man. josephine Marianne Bauer josie Type Trophy, President, 33, Ayita, Senior Girl Reserves, Stu- dent Council, World, Picture Committee Small, dark, with laughing brown eyes, this fraulein has hosts of friends. But when you consider that intelligence is added to this jolly disposition, you'll all agree that she'd make quite a nice frau. Phyllis Brown Sis Camera, Dramatics, Thespians, Girls' Swimming Team, Material Committee Sis is quite a vivacious person. Her pep is contagious to those around her and consequently she is a very popular girl. Michael Chaklos Mushy Varsity, Football, Boys' Swim- ming Team, Baseball Mushy is a quiet, unassuming lad, a marvelous French student, and a full-fledged woman-hater. Evidently he's anxious to leave South for he's graduating in three and a half years. Michael Costock Mike Type Trophy, Student Council, Stamp T h i s Business Organization Shark is quite an actor too. He likes the women, especially one by the name of Margie. He is well-liked by his classmates. Mary Esther Dawson Mary Es Hostess, Treasurer, '32, Type Trophy Another little lass who is grad- uating in three and a half years is Mary Es, She has the loveliest pair of big blue eyes which have set many a masculine heart pit- ter-pattering. Alberta Deary Boots Senior Leaders Alberta's greatest accomplish- ment is dancing-and can she dance?! Her best chum is Nona William Bartman Barty Camera, Senior Life Saving, Class Play, Ticket Committee Bill very seldom talks, but when he does talk you can be sure it's worth listening to. He's quite a favorite among the boys. because he always has a good word for everybody. Natalie Bereznetski Nat Type Trophy, Senior Girl Re- serves, Senior Leaders This taciturn little miss will make many a sick man want to stay sick when she dons her nurse's uniform. Her friendly smile and sunny disposition have won her many friends both in and out of South High. Carl Casato Carl A certain atmosphere of mys- tery surrounds this tall, dark lad. Maybe that dreamy look in his eyes means that he's thinking of sunny Italy and Venice with its gondolas. How about it, Carl? john Chasey john Sketch, Chemistry, Yearbook Did someone mention art? john is quite an authority on this sub- ject. For proof, just take a look at the cover of this book. Now don't you think that we have reason to believe that someday we'll be viewing his works in an art gallery? james Davis Lefty World, Varsity, Baseball, Ad- vertising Committee Lefty is another studious lad who is all wrapped up in his art. He doesn't have much to say but his drawings, which speak for him, will be greatly missed at South. Damaris Edmunds Dean Dee - Senior Life Saving, S e n io r Leaders, Girls' Swimming Team, Class Play ' Dee certainly is a bundle of pep. She's a marvelous dancer and is usually quite cheerful and gay, but since Pete has gone to the C.C.C. she has been rather disconsolate at times. Mary Fedornak Mitzy S e n io r Leaders, Thespians, Treasurer, '32, '33, Library, Girls' Swimming Team, World, Tennis, Reporters, President, '34 Mary was a newcomer to our class this year but her splendid ability soon made itself manifest to us. She has her share of A's i and more than her share of friends. and her best beau is ??? spectators at the game. Yea, South! Hold that ball, was not yelled in vain. South beat Fifth l4-O. 20.-This night was the night of nights at South High. Nearly every country of Europe was represented in this gorgeous display. International Night was one of the most successful under- takings our school has ever attempted. Antiques from every land were laid in all their splendor before our eyes. Entertainment, too, was close at hand. Swimming, dancing, and dramatic sketches -at the turn of every corner something different. And what a hit the colored minstrel made, with its singers and rhythmic dancers. Of course the ticket system was a little confusing, but a good time was enjoyed by all who attended this gala night at South.

FEBRUARY CLASS OF l93Li , CLASS OFFICERS FOR FEBRUARY President, Arthur Geisey V.-President, john Grad Secretary, Helen jackson Treasurer, Alma Siegfried O. Rep., Mary Miklas CLASS CALENDAR SEPTEMBER l.-Back to school for the grand finale, yes, this is our last semester. Pouring in from vaca- tioning rendezvous come South's new Senior A's. 2.-Ah, Ha. Something new in the way of a fraternity, This date marks the organization of the Zilch Club, on the third floor, by Miss Davidson's room. l5.-To-day the Student Council assembled to have their first meeting and, with the election of the officers, we find Ruth Groenert President. l8.-Each man has his masters who help him to form his life. Dr. Griggs, in his impressive speech, brought home to the students the fact that every person meets someone whom he follows as his ideal. l9.-Two of the most important clubs of the school to-day met to organize. Of course they are the Ayita and Philo literary societies. I 22.-Football season is again in progress, especially at South. A game was played at Wash- ington, Pennsylvania, to-day and maybe the South men didn't show their true colors! We won the game by an I8-7 score. 23.-Do the Senior A's love fresh corn on the cob? I'll say they do. What is nicer than a picnic at South Park? Do you agree, Seniors? 27.-We're a little wiser than we were when we went to assembly. We now know the purpose and the objectives of the N.R.A. Charles H. Lehman is the man to whom we are indebted for our enlightenment. 29.-We certainly have some team. South walloped Schenley by a score of i9-O. Who thought we'd have such a pleasing climax for the month of September? OCTOBER 2.-Were you ever in the Chocolate Town? All the students present at to-day's assembly had this rare privilege. Luscious, creamy choc- olate. Mmmmm! what could be sweeter? And it was Hershey's representative who showed a movie about the candy. How we longed for a sample. 7.--There was nothing rrore to say than, Every good team is tilted now and then, when South lost to Altoona, i9-14. l3.-Reports were given out, and woe to those who didn't study. Even report cards, W Miss Edythe Davidson however, failed to dampen the spirits of those R. G' Dean My twelve

Mary Fleck Mary Girl Reserves, Stamp, Band, Orchestra, Class Day If Mary keeps up she'lI soon be a one-man band. She knows how to play, exceptionally well, about every instrument you can name. She certainly has been an asset to our class and she will be sadly missed. Eva Funk Ev S e n io r Leaders, Chemistry, Camera, Thespiansg Class Cos- tume There's mischief in them thar eyes, and don't let it fool you! We certainly will m i ss Eva's hearty laugh and naughty pranks. But better still, we'll miss her ready willingness and hearty co- operation. Michael Glumac Mike Despite Mike's smallness he is quite an asset to the class. He hates civics, history, type and what have you? But there is one thing he is fond of and that is marking up books. How about it, Mr. Dean? Robert Gray Bob Sketch, Hi-Y, Thespians, Class Day Dancing feet and sparkling eyes best describe this gay Ro- meo. He's quite an actor and a favorite with the women. Some- day we may be privileged to hear, This is Robert Gray announc- ing, since he aspires to be thus associated with radio. William E. Guthrie Bill Life Saving, Chemistry, Radio, Secretary, '34, Ticket Committee What a man! Handsome, witty, and personality plus itself. Be- sides this, he is an excellent pub- lic speaker. Will you ever forget him as the master of ceremonies at our Class Day Program? Margaret Christiana Hough Margie Senior Leaders, S e n i o r Life Saving, Class Play Margie is a very good actress, a good typist, a good friend of Eleanor and Damaris, a very good- looking girl, and well-she's just a good girl all around. 1, Helen Marie jackson Sis Girl Reserves, Reporters, Sec- retary, '34, Camera, Type Tro- phy, Senior Secretary, '34 As a secretary Sis is unex- celled. Her quiet manner and ready willingness will be sorely missed in future classes. Albert G. Fuchs A Al Band, Orchestra, B o t z o og Camera, Thespians Al's sparkling dark eyes are just as irresistible as his magnetic personality, which accounts for his many admirers. He also dances well, plays several musical instru- ments and is an excellent public speaker. Arthur F. Geisey Art Senior President, '34, Student Council The responsibilities connected with the leadership of the senior class have in no way curbed this lad's youthful spirit. Art has no use for the Woman-Haters' Club and the girls are glad of it. ' john Grad Powerhouse Football, Basketball, Swim- ming, Baseball, Varsity, Camera, Philo, Student Council, National Honor, Class Play, Class Costume john takes the laurels for be- ing an all-around athlete. He cer- tainly will be missed on South's future teams. lt may seem odd, but this tower of strength be- comes quite a weakling under Wanda's loving gaze. Margaret Greh Marge Another shy miss? Not on your life! Marge may seem reserved and shy in the class room, but outside of school she is quite jolly and full of fun. We wonder whether a certain boy residing in Philadelphia is the cause for her reserved manner at school. Eleanore Hesse Nora Reporters Brown wavy hair, brown eyes, a peaches and cream complexion -sounds like the heroine of a novel, doesn't it? But Eleanore is a real, honest-to-goodness girl, and we're glad of it for she is quite an addition to our class. Odessa Howieson OH Girl Reserves, S o u t h High Dramatists, Botzoo, Reporters, World Club Our Odessa is just bubbling over with personality and pep. She will be greatly missed in the Girl Reserves Society where she has been an active member, and in a certain band member's heart where she has had quite a large spot. Constance Anne Kildusis Connie Girl Reserves, Reporters, Sen- ior Leaders, Type Trophy, Ticket Committee, Flower Committee Witty, bright-eyed, intelligent --that describes our C o n n i e, whose place in our hearts will be difficult to fill. 20.-South walloped Westinghouse i2-O to-day, chalking one more victory on her slate. 26.--The Student Council is not all cut-and-dried hard work, as those who attended their special party will inform you. The party was one of the best ever put over by the Student Council. 27.- We will fight till the last whistle blows, was not only a song, but it was the spirit throughout the game, though we lost to Peabody, our long-time rival, by a score of i2-7. 31.- Hallowe'en Dance, 3:05 P.M. was the notice that brought so many approvals. The dance was a welcome break in the monotony of classes. All enjoyed themselves to the fullest ex- tent, and their only regret came when it was time to go home. of ,x i .,l Q. 1 v li Sify fourteen
