1- si, l twenty-four PAUL EWING One of those happy-go-lucky fellows who somehow always manage to do the right thing at the right time, Paul has an indefinable something about him that wins him many friends. Paul, who expects to enter a school of forestry, may become one of our chief conservationists. Who knows? Good luck, Paul! MARY ANN FAW Weather Vane 12, 3, 415 Annual 1414 French Club 12, 3, 413 Latin Club 12, 3, 41g Glee Club 12, 3, 419 Girls' Gym Program 1313 All-State Chorus 13, 41. The toast of the South! She has brown, brown eyes and sings as clearly as all belies should. Worthy of the highest honors We can bestow, Mary Ann is going to Agnes Scott College. Like the fairy princesses, she is as good as she is beautiful. MARGARET FELL Finance Committee 131g Senior Play Committee 141, French Club 13, 415 Latin Club 121, Hockey 12, 3, 415 Soccer 1213 Baseball 1315 Tenni- quoit 1315 Gym Program 12, 3, 41. A sudden crash on the stairs behind you or a prostrate figure surrounded by books and papers suggests Margaret. Even though this blunder-buss falls over herself perpetually and asks silly questions, she's an exceptional student and executive. ROBERT FERGUSON Football 1415 Swimming 1W41, Baseball 1413 German Evening 141. Fergy came to us from Columbia last fall, and in this short time he has made an active name for himself in the line of sports. A select few of our girls meet with his approval, but we hear he left Columbia maidens in tears. NANCY FLOOD Nancy is liked by all students for her ability to keep them in good spirits. Although bookkeeping and losing weight are her chief problems, she seems to have many ideas on both subjects. While her favorite hobby is collecting dolls of different lands, talking seems to come second, much to her teachers' regret. We are proud to have had such a traveled member as one of our classmates. HELEN FRASER German Evening 12, 3, 41. Helen, Butch for short, is always to be found in Pat's car waiting for a ride home. Her .chattering and her habit of forgetting homework have proved vexatious to practice teachers. She is one of Miss Dodds' everpresent Deulxche Muedfbfn. Some time ask her about Mimi.

Leaven from the old '37 lump, Derge tries to raise the spirits of this tragic class. l3ob takes to bowling and sopho- mores as easily as to horseplay. PETER DUGHI Athletic Council 13, 41g French Club 12, 315 Mask and Mime Club 12, 3, 413 Football 1W41g Basket- ball 141g Track Manager 12, 3, V413 Senior Play 141. Peter has been the stalwart in the var- sity football line for two years. An ad- vocate of sports and an able goalie in hockey, he naturally follows the big- time games. Although he enjoys teas- ing girls, he has a heart as large as his supply of wit. MARY DITTO Senior Day Committee 141g Finance Committee 1413 Latin Club 12, 31g Tennis 12, 3, 41g Basketball 12, 3, 415 Baseball 12, 31. Dinzl and Egert grow rich on girls like Mary, for they induce them to pose in bathing suits and then sell the result. This vivacious chatterbox is interested in pretty clothes, 1-ine cars, and Red Dog. aid HAROLD EHLERS Academic Committee 1313 Archaeology Club 12, Vice-President 3, 41. Hap, who is one of the more reticent members of the class, has been known to loosen up among intirnates. He en- joys target shooting with his trusty twenty-two. His cousin and he form one inseparable company. The future will show what Hap was doing while we were laughing. .12 'A .ff ?'5'5'7'f'i '?1'f ANNE DRAKE Senior Play Committee 1415 French Club 12, 3, 41, Glee Club 13, 415 Latin Club 121g Mask and Mime 1313 Annual 141. Red hair usually denotes a violent temper, but Anne is as placid as a mill- pond. She manages to keep on the Honor Roll though she spends hours at the movies. Those who know her well attest her true friendship and her deep-rooted affection for certain people. VIRGINIA EVANS Most blonde of' all 1938 blondes is Virginia who is almost always seen with another very blonde young girl. A really slender girl, Virginia can afford to laugh at the dieters. Although her classmates think of her as truly reticent, it is certain that in the company of her intimates she is quite voluble. twenty three

GEORGE FRICKMANN A regular job after school has kept George from any active participation in extra-curricular affairs, but has made him a good judge of meat cuts. He is the proud possessor of an excellent camera with which he has had very good resultsg and his other avocation, poultry raising, he plans to make his vocation. He is certainly our authority on chickens. GEORGE FROST French Club 12, 3, 433 Latin Club 13, 433 Library Council 12, 3, 433 Mask and Mime 1333 Golf 13, 433 Senior Play 1433 Red Cross Council U3 A pastime of teasing fair damsels during class and a smooth way of dancing will always identify Frosty with the class of '38. According to the Senior Play he is a prospective model husband, but obviously he hasn't decided on any one girl. RUTH ANNE FROST Academic Committee 1433 French Club 12, 3, 433 Mask and Mime 1233 Latin Club 1233 Baseball 1233 Tennis 12, 3, 433 Soccer 1333 Girls' Gym Program 12, 3, 43. Golf, riding, swimming-at all Ruth Anne is successful. Her favorite pastime is cheering us up with puns that would make anybody laugh. She has a mania for ice cream sundaes, hamburgers, trucking, and imitating a pretzel on skis. PAUL CERHARDT Slide Rule Club 1433 Mask and Mime 13, 433 Literary Club 1433 Forum 1433 Football 12, 333 German Evening 12, 3, 433 Senior Play 1433 Christmas Play 1333 Band 12, 3, 43. This trombone enthusiast and imitator of Tommy Dorsey's style won all hearts in his role as hero in A Romantic Young Lady. He is definitely an out-of-door man and prefers Pennsylvania for skiing as well as for other reasons. WALTER GIVAN Class President 1333 Athletic Council 12, 333 Civic Committee 1Chairman 433 Football 12, 3, 433 Track 13, 433 German Evening 13, 43. Givey, one of our outstanding athletes and a fellow who has gained the admiration of his classmates, has a very pleasant disposition and a keen sense of humor. During the football season Givey was unfortunate enough to sustain a shoulder injury and as a result missed getting his letter. FRED GLEIM Civic Committee 1233 Program Ccmmittee 1333 French Club 12, 3, 433 Chess Club 12, 333 Senior Play Committee 143. Mr. Johnson's chief heckler, Camp Wulamat's best counselor, and Highland Avenue's best stand-by laughs at anything at any time, particularly Foo. Cleo has gained as large a reputation as his monicker Stymie and is heard every time Fred can be heard. l twenty-five
