GARNET AND GRAY GILDA M. DIENNA Academic Jil” Her stature tall—I hate a dumpy woman. Christmas Party Plcy Cast, IV; Year Book Staff, IV,- Eastfrin Staff, II, III, IV; Field Day Events, I, II; Perfect Attendance, I,- Gym Exhibition, II; Halloween Party Committee, III, IV; French Club, IV; Student Librarian, III. Jil has true poetical genius and originality. She has written many bits of verse which are especially good and we predict that, providing she does not lose that imaginative touch, she will be a poet of great note. She is undecided aoout her futjre, but we wish her success and happiness in whatever she does. ANNA C. DONATO Commercial “Ann” Good nature wins many a heart. Bookkeeping Award, III; Perfect Attendance, III; Stenographic Awards, III; Filing Award, IV. Anna is one of the quietest girls in the Senior class. Her quietness and her small stature are net a hindrance to her activeness. She always has a pleasant smile for everybody. The close resemblance of Anna to her sister is not a restraint to her popularity among the commercial group. Although she came to us in her Junior year, she has won many friends, especially in the commercial group. HELEN M. DONATO Commercial “Shorty” I am no wordy woman. Stenographic Awards, III, IV,- Bookkeeping Award, III; Perfect Attendance, III. Helen came to us in our Junior year from St. Katherine’s School- She is a very quiet girl, but can laugh at a good joke anytime. Those who know her best are always expecting her to laugh and relate some droll little incident. Very seldom is Helen heard to complain, no matter how worried she is about a large amount of homework or any other problem. We look forward to a bright commercial future for Helen. DOROTHY W. DOWNING Commercial “Dot” Sincere in all her doings. Chorus, III; Typing Awards, III, IV,- Stenographic Awards, III, IV,- Bookkeeping Awards, III; Year Book Staff, IV; Eastfrin Staff, IV,- Candy Committee, IV,- Perfect Attendance, IV,- Student Librarian, III,- Gym Exhibition, II; Filing Awards, IV. Dot isn’t the kind that pushes herself forward and, in fact, saying she is rather retiring doesn’t reveal her either. Her very best friends will tell you that she possesses a keen sense of humor, and gives a helping hand wherever it is needed. May your future be very suc- cessful, Dorothy. Page Eighteen

S. M. A. Chorus, IV. Contrary to the wide belief that red hair involves a wicked temoer, Fog has the red hair, but the disposition of a wrenny-bird.

S. M. A. Chorus, IV. A careful look directed at Johnny immediately tells one what the well dressed man may wear. With impeccable taste he stands out prominently in the field of sartorical correctness. Johnny is also the class gift to the women in school, and if you ever see him around anywhere, he’s surrounded by many females. Johnny's ambition is an engineer. Good luck to you. VIRGINIA M. DUCKWORTH Academic Virgie I should rather excel others in knowledge than in power. Virginia was a new member in our midst, coming here to join us in our Senior year from Eastern Mennonite School in Harrisonburg, Virginia. She appears to be shy and reticent to those with whom she comes in contact, but when you really become acquainted with her, under that quiet exterior one finds a most intellectual person whose suggestions in any subject are always helpful. Virginia’s plans are to go in training. All of us feel certain that she will become a most successful nurse. HOWARD HUNTER EARL Academic Rusty Who first invented work? Football, II, III, IV; Tennis, II, III, IV; Monitor, IV, Perfect Attend- ance I; Operetta, III, IV; Orchestra, I, II, III, IV,- Band, I,- Gym Ex- hibition, II. At the top of our list of well-dressed Seniors is smiling Rusty Earl. Add to this his handsome countenance and congenial manner and you have the answer to many a maiden’s dream. Although we rarely find him actually looking for work, yet upon examination we see that his share has been efficiently carried out. MARY ELIZABETH FARR Commercial Libby We know her merry giggle, For she’s a jolly lass.’ Chorus, III; Stenographic Awards, IV; Bookkeeping Awards, III; Field Day Events -Baseball; Perfect Attendance, II, IV; Gym Ex- hibition, II.
