ARNOLD ABEL Arnie’s was a familiar coun¬ tenance at the athletic games where he lent spirit and voice to cheer W eaver ' s reoresentatives on towards success. Although his club activities were few, he was a wel¬ come enthusiast at school dances and eagerly supported other school projects. Amiable and agreeable, Arnie ' s worries are few, for his carefree philosophy of life keeps him happy. Baseball Squad; Basketball Squad. MARGERY ABRAMS Tall and dark, Marge’s Duch¬ ess of Windsor flair for clothes ex¬ hibits itself in her engaging appear¬ ance. A complacent fatalist, she wends her casual way humming to herself “what is to be must be.” You could usually spy her huddled in the bleachers at all the football games, no matter how the wind whipped and blustered around corners. Girls’ League. BERTHA ADLER Generally speaking, Bertie is generally speaking. Her round face belied any seriousness she claimed, and her irrepressible snicker amused many an unsus¬ pecting class. Bertie” is rated as a darn good kid” and can always be depended upon to lighten some poor discouraged heart. Girls’ League. KENNETH ALBRECHT Here’s a fan for swing music. At the mention of Benny Goodman, Kenny ” gets all a-twitter. Kenny ” has a sparkling eye when in con¬ ference with a gal —- the femmes think he’s cute. In spite of his chatter about swing music and Goodman, we all liked him! Lookout Editorial and Business Boards. CHRISTINE ALLEN A true friend whose sweet dis¬ position has gained her wide popu¬ larity! Chris’ extreme fondness for sewing accounts for the many chic” sport frocks of her own creation worn during the semes¬ ters. However, her heart and soul lie in serving humanity; conse¬ quently, she plans to enter Lincoln Training School to prepare herself for this work. Girls’ League. CELIA ALTSHULER Babe ' spends her spare moments knitting and reading, though she confesses a violent dislike for books written in the first person. Her vocal ability makes her the envy of us all; this talent, combined with her natural enthusiasm, sunny disposition, and vivacious manner, should insure Babe” success on the stage of life. Choir; C. H. L. S., President; German Club, Vice-President, Girls’ League; Glee Club. ARNOLD ANDELMAN From the pages of Esquire” Arnold might have stepped, if his immaculate clothes could tell his history. With his thoughts on his saxophone and clarinet, female admirers gazed in vain at Andy’s” good looks as he strolled through Weaver’s corridors. His favorite diversion being music, Arnie” studies music composition and arrangement to occupy his leisure hours. Glee Club; Inter-High Orches¬ tra; Lookout Editorial Board; Or¬ chestra. BERNICE ANDERSON In Swede’s girlish and beguiling manner, we detect a certain note of smart sophistication and serene poise which served only to en¬ hance her slim, blonde appear¬ ance. Indeed, we must speak of her hair, for her interest lies in hairdressing and her up-to-the- minute coiffure attracted attention and praise wherever she went. Choir; Girls’ League.
