14 U P I - D A H ALICE MARION ANDRASSY ‘'Scraps” Folcroft Big black eyes, black hair, two adorable dimples and a ready smile—that’s Alice. Her smile has won many friends for her during the three years she has been with us. This little lady is quite studious. She has completed her high school career in three years! Shorthand and typing are favorites with Alice, and we know that next year somebody is going to get an A-l stenog. Then, too, Alice is one of our most promising musicians. Happiness, Alice, in what- ever you do! Dramus Club (3, 4); Orchestra (3, 4). WILLIAM PERQUETTE APPLEGATE “Dinge” Kirklyn Affable Dinge and his rubber smile is the possessor of that striking popular appeal called personality. His uncanny ability to turn a classroom into chaos is a lesson in sagacity and genius. His versatile ability in athletics has won for him the coveted letter in three sports. Dinge has been our class weather barometer—when it rained he stayed home, and if it looked like rain, he waited until it did. His technique in all things, however, makes us look for big things from Bill in the future. Vice-President (2); Hi-Y (4); Soccer (3, 4); Basketball (4); Base- WM. RUSSEL B. ATCHINSON “Rus” Sharon Hill The only thing we have against Rus is that he hails from Sharon Hill. But kidding aside, Sharon Hill shouid be proud to claim him. Is he a real Upper Darbyite? Don’t make us laugh. This year he did his bit to make the senior play a success. 'Way back in ’25, before he took a vacation to Florida for the following winter. Rus grabbed a silver medal for his pole-vaulting proficiency. Rus sayeth that his hobby is study—believe it or don’t. The boy friend pictured here is the possessor of a loud smile which has cheered us all times innumerable. Rus has always been a real sup- porter of Upper Darby and ’27. That’s not extraordinary, but it’s mightv true! Tribunal (1); Play (4); Class Basketball (1); Soccer (1. 4); Track (1, 4). Committees—Christmas Basket (2. 4), Color (1). HOWARD BALDWIN “Baldy” East Lansdowne The gentleman from East Lansdowne, we next introduce. A tromboner who can trombone, or. if you like it better, a musician who can music. Bands, orchestra, jazz aggregations, organizations uncounted share in Baldy’s talents, and there’s plenty to spare. Back last year Mr. Baldwin was seen in the role of football man- ager, and here he managed well indeed. True, this beau of Lans- downe docs almost everything, and most astonishing he does it in a manner to be proud of. With which we say farewell to Baldy. Orchestra (2, 3, 4); Football Manager (3); Dramus Club (3. 4). WARREN E. BALDWIN “Balder” Highland Park Good-natured—that’s Warren. A ready wit, a warm smile, and an encouraging word. ’27 has been indeed fortunate in having this member who for the last five years has taken active interest in class activities such as student government, class basketball, and senior play. Incidentally we hear Warren has no mean ability as a pianist—playing in a number of local orchestras. Warren has thus far been unimpressed by feminine pulchritude, but when he falls— well, you know! We wish him all sorts of luck at the College ol Osteopathy. Tribunal (2); Play (4); Class Basketball (4).
