JOHN WILLIS DRIES Academic Johnny As an actor, confessed, without rival to shine, As a wit, if not first, in the very first line.” Basketball, II, III,- Cheerleader, IV; Monitor, III, IV; Chorus, III, IV; Senior Supper Committee, IV,- Operetta, IV; P. 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. Libby in spite of her size is a jolly, fun-loving girl. To some she may seem quiet, but when you once get to know her, your rainy days are gone. Although she does not excel in her studies, she is always ready to lend a helping hand, accompanying it with a cherry smile. 19 3 7 Page Nineteen

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

ROSE ANNA FARR Rosie' Commercial He is well paid that is well satisfied. Bookkeeping Awards, III; Filing Awards, IV,- Eastfrin Staff, II, III, IV; Perfect Attendance, IV; Gym Exhibition, II. Rose’s quiet nature is indeed an asset. She takes very calmly those things which would greatly excite others. What would the Eastfrin Staff do without this worker so diligent and uncomplaining who does such a great deal of typing for the paper? Rose is ever ready to lend a helping hand to one she calls a friend and she has that enviable trait which enables her to call most every- body that. JOSEPH A. FERRANTE Practical Arts Joe Worry never was worthwhile. Monitor, III; Year Book Staff, IV; Eastfrin, III; Perfect Attendance, I, II, IV; Hill-Billy Band, I; Industrial Arts Club, II. Joe is a strong silent person who has taken out his energy in his course of Practical Arts. He is a shy and retiring member of our class. But when we want work to be done, he’s there to do it. The fact that Joe can do his work, without attracting attention, coupled with his unusual determination to do it, leads one to expect great things of him. BARBARA CAROL FRIEDHOFER Commercial Bobbie Not too serious, not too gay, But a rare good sport when it comes to play. A. A. Recording Secretary, III; Chorus, III; Stenographic Awards, III; Bookkeeping Award, IM; Eastfrin Staff, IV; Supper Committee, IV; Dance Committee, IV; Filing Award, IV; P. S. M. A. Chorus, IV. Witty, clever, friendly to all, always ready to help anyone—such we might characterize Bobbie . We believe that her greatest pastime is equally divided in dancing and driving a car, both of which she does exceptionally well. But for all her favorite pastimes we must give her credit for her untiring efforts in selling tickets in Room 10. ESTHER GILROY Academic Grade I would my horse had the speed of your tongue, And so good a continuer. Chorus, I, II, III, IV, Hallowe’en Party Play Cast, I, III; Senior Bake Committee Chairman, IV; Eastfrin Staff, III; Editor-in-Chief of Eastfrin, IV; Archery, III, Perfect Attendance, I,- Operetta, III, IV; Student Librarian, III; H2E, III, IV; Gym Exhibition, II; Junior Prom Committee Chairman, III; Supper Committee, IV. Esther will talk, for she is determined to develop the poise that may be acquired from practice in oral expression. She can both act and sing too for she surely portrayed her role well in both H. M. S. Pinafore as Buttercup and in The Mikado as Katisha. 19 3 7 Page Twenty
