THE GARNET AND WHITE 20 GRACE B. MATTSON General “Fair as the lily—sweet as the rose—”—Shakespeare Monitor IV. Grace lias been with us only two years, but in that time she has endeared herself to us all. Her merry smile and laughing blue eyes are familiar to us all, as is also her frequent escort—! Grace is quiet but de- cidedly efficient and is voted by some “the prettiest girl in the Class of ’23.” Here’s luck to you, Grace, in whatever you attempt next year. ELEANOR MATTHEWS Commercial “A shining halo 'round her head.”—Shakespeare Eleanor is one of that steadfast, dependable surt of people who make the world revolve properly on its axis. Her q uiet smile and firm voice are reassuring and pleas- ant. She must be nice when she can get along peacefully with her brother! Such a feat is almost unheard of—and naturally is a subject of wonder to her classmates. How do you do it, Eleanor? Eleanor is going to enter the business world—good luck to you ! WILLARD B. MATTHEWS Normal “A friend is worth all hazards we can run.”—Young French Club III; Science Club III, IV; Glee Club IV; Locker Room Monitor IV. “Bill,” one of our faithful Glee Club boys, is known by everyone. We expect Willard to make a noted pro- fessor some day. He is liked bv all his friends and looks as if he could strongly impress whoever might be his enemy. Willard expects to increase his intellectual capacity at West Chester State Normal School next year. RODERICK McKENNA Industrial Scientific “The rod that supports many things of value to the earth.” —Harris Football I. “Rod” has been one of the quiet, steady workers of the Senior Class whose presence has been little noted, but whose absence would have been a misfortune. We need such students to furnish the stamina of the school. We were all surprised and pleased when he sang so well for us in Assembly. “Rod” expects to manage ser- pertine stone quarries in the future.

THE GARNET AND WHITE I!) HELEN E. LOZO Commercial “Silence is a virtue.’’- Goldsmith Typewriting Certificate IV; Typewriting Medal IV. Helen is a very nice, quiet girl, but she is always ready to giggle when anything funny happens. She al- ways attends to business, and we arc sure she'll make an excellent stenographer. Helen expects to take a position. BLANCHE McCOY MALIN Classical “She shall have music wherever she goes.”—Lowell Garnet and White Staff I; Piano in Orchestra I, IV; Violin II; Assistant Class Treasurer III. Blanche’s full name is Blanche McCoy Malin, but her middle name really ought to be “Music.” The or- chestra and school will be sorry not to have her familiar figure playing tunes for us. Music is not her only ac- complishment; she excels in math, and Virgil as well. Blanche is another one of those fine additions from Mal- vern. She expects to attend Gouchcr College next year. JESSE MALIN Commercial “Tell and strong as sturdy oaks.”—Whittier Orchestra IV; Band IV; Spelling Team IV. We all remember the. day Jes” chewed gum in the spelling bee in chapel, and, despite this apparent handi- cap. did pretty good work. He has also been a member of our orchestra, and we know the school will miss him and bis saxophone. “Jess,” like a great many of us, is undecided about next .year. ANNA R. MELONEY Classical “Health and happiness go hand in hand.” Assistant Editor Garnet and White IV; Garnet and White Staff III; Basketball teem III; Captain Basketball IV; Honor- able Mention Senior Essay IV; Salutatorian of the Senior Class; Member of Program Committee IV. “Bee Bee” is one of our Titian Tints and a shining light of ’23. She is full of pep and energy, and her les- sons have always come in for their share of attention in the appliance of that energy. “Bee Bee” is known and loved by the entire school, and we shall sorely miss her ready smile and good nature, though we shall ever keep her in our thoughts and hearts. Anna expects to go to Swarthmore College next year, and we send her with wishes for success and good luck.

THE GARNET AND WHITE 21 MARION MEREDITH General A serious lass wherein lies deep a sense of humor rare.”—Strong During Marion’s years at High School she has made many friends and enjoyed the fun created in High School. We hope she will like college, and wc wish her the best of success as a future teacher. She expects to attend Drexel Institute next year. HELEN MELLOR General “Silence is a virtue here.”—Tyler Science Club IV; Basketball IV. Helen is one of '23’s quiet girls; at least one would think so to see her in her classes; but when out of class sbe is the most lively person one would wish to meet. She intends to go to State College and to study Agriculture there. After she finishes College, she is going to stay at home and “run” the farm. Helen, we know you will revolutionize things so that women will soon be the best farmers obtainable. JAMES PAUL MOSTELLER Commercial “His path—, may it be ever smooth and straight.”—Shakespeare Monitor IV; Member of Sanitary Squad IV; Baseball III; Football Squad IV. “Jim” used to be full of pep, but he seems to have used up some of his ambition and to have lost lots of sleep on account of that rattling, little old Ford of his. We are glad that he belongs to us, however, and we shall miss his ever-ready smile. He will enter Drexel in the fall. MARIE V. A. MUSANTE General And still be doing, never done.”—Butler Marie is noted for her good nature, which has won many friends for her during her High School course. She possesses a rare, contagious laugh which very often bursts forth unexpectedly, so I’ve heard it said. Marie is uncertain about her work next year, but whatever she attempts she will accomplish. Good luck, Marie.
