fifteen William B. Kleina Butch Orchestra, Band, Football If anyone ever starts a sleep- ing marathon we're sure Butch will win it for he's certainly not a victim of insomnia. Neverthe- less we all like Butch for he has a splendid voice and is a regular sport. Edith I Krueger Edie Philo, President, '34, World, Thespians, Dramatics, Botzoo, ORlOLE, Yearbook Staff, Pic- ture, National Honor, Class Play That red-head that's such a good dancer? Yep--that's Reds. And don't get the notion she's just a party girl. Oh my no! She's in almost everything in school atndt Highest Honor graduate at t a . Elizabeth Logan Lizzie S e n i o r Leaders, Reporters, Type 'Trophy Lizzie is the believer of the old adage, Silence is golden. But we like her just the same. lnci- dentally, if you want to make her extremely happy, ask her to 'go tobogganing. Robert McClure Bob Ayita, Varsity, Student Coun- cil, Hi-Y, Football, Ticket Com- mittee Bob is the male representative of the redheads in our class. We don't know whether it's those wavy auburn locks or that croon- ing baritone voice that attracts the femmes, but he certainly gets them. Herbert Meyer Herb Herb's ability for making a person feel ridiculous, is unequal- ed, for he certainly is full of witty remarks and is a sure tonic for the blues. La Verne Mowry Mowry P h i lo, Reporters, Thespians, South Hi Dramatists, journalism, World, Yearbook, ORlOLE, Ad- vertising Committee Mary's better half is quite a little girl but this way there is no room for any badness. La Verne is quite an important student in the school, since she is connected with all the extra-curricular ac- tivities, besides being an A pupil. Robert Muirhead Bob South Hi Dramatists, Class Play We haven't come to know Bob as well as we would like to be- cause he has just come into' our class this semester. But we are glad that he decided to graduate in three and one-half years be- cause he certainly is an asset with his droll humor and engaging grins iand spontaneous blushesl. NOVEMBER Albert G. Kountz, jr. Al Botzoo, Chemistry, Vice-Pres- ident, '34, Radio, ORlOLE News Staff, Yearbook Staff, Class Play Although -Al has science writ- ten all over his face, he would make an excellent poet. For he has even published a book of poems! He is also interested in photography, journalism, dramat- ics, and is quite a versatile lad. Margaret Ann Lindner Peg Senior Leaders, Student Coun- cil, National Honor, Yearbook Staff Peg is one of those rare people who fit in everywhere. She is a marvelous dancer and an excel- lent student. Her ambitious na- ture is envied and she will be sorely missed on future yearbook staffs. Andrew Manko Giggles Senior Life Saving, Varsity, Swimming, Assistant Manager, Football Team, '33, Class Color, Advertising Committee Giggles is quite a gigolo. But when it comes to swimming he becomes very serious. By the way, a certain blonde beauty has as- tonishing luck in p r o d u ci n g bluzhes on this lad. Gilbert Mervosh Gil Radio, Chemistry, Class Color, Varsity The Silent Serbian is an ap- propriate surname for Gil. De- spite his quietness he is respected and admired by many, and his F r e n c h would even make a Frenchman sit up and take notice. Mary Lou Miklas Chief Philo, Secretary, '34, Treasurer, '32, Dramatics, Thespians, Re- porters, Business, News Staff, President, '32, ORlOLE N e w s, Student Council, World, Quill and Scroll, National Honor, Class P I a y, Advertising Committee, Flower Committee We certainly are proud of our editor -in - chief. She is one of those rare people who seems to have the ability to do everything as nearly perfect as possible. She has hosts of friends but her in- separable pal is La Verne. Bernard Muehlbauer Bernie Dramatic, Thespians, Camera, Class Play, Class Costume Com- mittee When it comes to describing Bernie, we do not know just where to start, for he is quite a versatile lad. His dark hair and brown eyes are certainly irresisti- ble to the girls. But he maintains that his is a woman hater, that flowers are nicer. Oh Yeah! Wilhelmina Marie Nagel ' Minnie I junior Class, Vice - President, '33, Type Trophy, Secretary, '32, Girl Reserves, Reporters, Philo, Class Motto. Wilma is one of those girls that we all like to walk and talk with. She has exceptional organizing ability and is always ready to do her part when called upon. jo is her best pal and vocal harmon- izer. 6.-Open House Night explains exactly the social gathering of parents at South. The Philo and Ayita Societies furnished the amusement, assisted by the band. The parents certainly enjoyed the night and asked for many more events of this type. 6.-To-day every student was asked to participate in a Mock Election. The experiment proved to be a great success 6.-- The chief purpose of education is to train the mind and the will to do the work you have to do when that work ought to be done, whether you like to do it or not. Dr. Charles E. Barker's address was one of the most impressive speeches we have ever had the pleasure of hearing.

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

Eleanor Rita Narodzonek El S e n i o r Leaders, Reporters, Camera, Senior Life Savings, Bas- ketball, Class Play Dark curly hair, dark laughing eyes, a petulant mouth, and you have Eleanor. She's a Heavenly toddler too, besides b e i n g a good actress. 'Nuff said. Stephen Okarma Ticky Mrs. Okarma's little boy Steve has quite a host of friends in South who are going to miss his mischievous smiles and banters. Are we right, Miss Goldstein? Thomas 0'Sullivan Tom Chemistry, Student, T i c k e 1' Committee Tom is the male representative for the honor students. He is a very business-like man, and like the proverbial Irishman, is very witty. Stanley I. Pieklo Pickles Class Play How we envy the way Pickles wades through history! ! ! l And wouldn't the lunch crew be lost without him? Pickles has proven himself a real friend by his will- ing and earnest attitude. Walter Pusateri Walt Senior L i f e Saving, Varsity, Football Tall, dark and handsome fits Walt to a T. And Walt has proved himself an ambitious young chap in graduating in three and one- half years. George Raynovich Lefty Bachelor Lefty is our idea of a hand- some brute. He has lovely curly dark hair, brown eyes, and a mil- lion dollar smile. Sorry girls, but he's already taken, isn't he, julia? Ruth Redlinger Ruthie News Business Staff, Ayita, Student Council, South Hi Dram- atists, Thespians, Class Color Ruthie is the closest double of Boots, the little blond who has won her way into our h e a r t s through the Press comic page, that we have ever seen. And she is not only good looking-she can dance and sing extraordinar- ily well, too. Pearl Netzer Pearly Gates Botzoo, Chemistry, Swimming, Basketball, Life Saving, Adver- tising Committee Did you ever hear anything quite so sweet as Pearl's voice? We haven't, and we're willing to bet that it will go a long way in bringing her fame and fortune. Pearl is also an A student and a prize swimmer. Nevol Oldenburg Nevol Girl Reserves, Dramatics, Life Saving, Thespians, World, Stu- dent Council, Swimming Team Nevol is one of the nicest girls we know, and one of the best dancers too, She has a cheery smile and a friendly word for everyone. Eleanor Pavone El Thespians, Student Counc'l Eleanor reminds us of a little kewpie doll with her big brown eyes and captivating dimples. De- spite her cunning ways, she has an air of sophistication. She is an excellent student, a good dancer, wears good looking clothes-and well-some people get all the breaks. john P. Postellon Possy Hi-Y, President, '32, Senior Leaders, Life Saving, Camera Possy gets our vote for the class clown. He certainly can pull the funny boners. Some day he may become a comedian on the air, who knows? Go ahead, Possy, we'll be glad to hear you. Erben Raynor Ebenezer B a n d, Orchestra, Chemistry, Camera A person that can be trusted is worth knowing and we certainly trust Erben. He has been elected report room treasurer for years and also has the job of taking care of banking. He is a promi- nent member of the band and also of the Women Hater's Club. Dorothy Rectanus Dot Senior Girl Reserves, President, '33, '34, Dramatics, South Hi Dramatlsts, Botzoo, Basketball, Ticket Committee The class of '34 is not the only one that is losing out when Dot goes, but the Girl Reserves are losing a very good president. She's a girl whom all respect and admire for her sweet disposition. Alice Richardson Alice Reporters, Girl Reserves, Bot- zoo, World, Swimming Alice is a little lady of very few words. Her mother taught her never to use the word hate, but she says it's the only word that really describes her feelings towards HaIleck's History of Eng- lish Literature. 22.-Learn to control your emotions, especially the emotion of fight. This was the theme of the talk given by Dr. Earl Barnes. Never let your fighting spirit get the best of you, was just one sentence of his most enjoyable talk. 23.-Senior A's held a meeting to-day. You know the Seniors always have so much to talk over and discuss that there seems to be no end to impromptu meetings. 29.-A Thanksgiving Dance for Seniors was held in the gym at 3:05. My! that Mickie Mouse Orchestra sounds good these days. No school till next month, was perhaps one reason for our high spirits at the dance. sixteen
