TI-IE OWL 25 NORVAL LEFFERT ' ' BALLEY ' ' ' 'A mam afmrmg men., zz limi among the ladies 'QBalley,' is a good natured fellow but quite a booster. He may be seen at lunch times or at other vacant minutes exerting his mighty strength over some of his companions and over the Juniors as wellg winning out in the favor of a certain Junioress. Though not a lazy boy Bailey operates on the motto Never do today what you can let go until tomorrow and don't do it then if you can get out of it. He is an intelligent, good-look- ing boy with apparently never a worry or care. All through his high school career Norval has made a mark as a student and also as an ath- lete. Here's to your success, hoping that you may use your strength to the best advantage and bring credit to the class of BZ , RUSSELL LEISTER RUSS ' ' The helplfss look of blooming infa-':1cy Athough Russell is a full fledged member of the Senior Class you would never guess as much. Evidently he intends to keep out of the public eye for he abhors the idea of making a speech before the history class. Nevertheless, he is not without his bright moments for he was one of the trestles of the mighty bridge, Gram- mar , spanning the river of Bad English, at the beginning of the year, and he is still a reliable support of his class even though the subject has changed to literature. We don't know what Russell will do after he graduates but we believe that we shall probably Find him down on the farmu helping along with the Farm Relief Bill to keep depression away from the soil. MARGARET LEWIS ' ' M ARGIE ' ' Sim tflvklwi fverytllifng that came hm' way With Il joyful 11011-'l'f.H First in work, First in play, and first in the hearts of her classmates. A 'lstarn on the vol- ley team and an uaceu in her classes. Never shirk one thing to do anotheru is Margaret's motto. During her senior year she has Reflicientlyn filled the positions of class secretary, and as librarian. And how she plays on the heart strings when those Peeling', chords flow from her violin. Margaret has not only entertained in the school orchestra but displayed her musi- cal talent in the county orchestra as well. She was the only one chosen to represent our high school in the State orchestra at the High School Teacherls Asociation. Margaret is a firm believer in the old adage, Laugh and the world laughs with you, which will chase away much of the gloom which hovers over the cots in the hospital where Margaret hopes to begin her future work. W, H. S. is wishing you as much success along life's road as along your high school path,

THE OWL JOHN HULL ' ' REVEKEND ' ' Ii is the quiet woirlcrzr who succeeds John is one of the most quiet and most re- served students of the Senior Class. He is a very dependable member of the Commercial Department and we are certain that some em- ployer will get an eHicient and able business manager. John is one of those strong silent men, whose dark hair and brown eyes have caused Min- nie feminine hearts to flutter. The sailor chorus of the Musical Comedy wouldnlt have been complete if it were not for ujohnnyv, the typical sailor boy. Whether John will be a business manager, or a preacher we do not know, but whichever it may be, the best wishes of the class of thirty-two will be with him. iHe may, after all, decide to hoe potato:-:s.J MAURICE KATZ KA'i'z I r1uz1'e had 'Hs AYUIJOIPOII, Honw had 'Hs C4u'.wzr, Eazglzmd haul its Cromwell, 1311! W. H. S. hrwl ils 'Katz' 'And it 's .vol 'riglzf ' f ' KatzH is noted for his abiilty to argue. Fast and furious fly the words when he and some other member of the class, preferably Bricks Englar, start an informal on the question to be decided. Katz,, generally comes out with colors flying, though these same are often both tattered and torn. Maurice has shown his executive ability as Grand Sachem of the magazine contest spon- sored each year by the Curtis Publishing Com- pany. He directed the contest in great style and we cannot help but feel that his managerial ability fortells his success in life. He is also the right hand of Miss Fiscel when her Owl inclines toward typed material. Here's the best of luck to you, Maurice! ERMA KING HERJXIAU We mn Zire without Tow and we can live without books, But 0'i'Uil-i2'8'd man cafn't Hoe without cooks! Author Forgotten. Coming down the list we come to a King just five feet three inches in height, but whether she holds her own in reigning over her own do- main may be determined by those who know her. Erma is a very active member of the Home Economics Club and we have heard, from a very reliable source, that she can cook. We find Erma is very much interested in cer- tain colleges, Gettysburg heading the list. How- ever, she intends to enter training and, as a king, keep her subjects always happy with her radiant disposition which, perhaps, accounts for her popularity. May the warmth of true friend- ship urge you to high attainments, Erma.

m 5. 26 THE OWL HELEN MANCHA KK I 7 ' ' To be patient is to be loved' ' A patient, loving smile always makes its way to Helen's face and we are glad to say that it finds itself a home there most of the time. We never hear Helen speak an angry or discourteous word. She just doesn't do it, no matter what happens, and she has the hap- py faculty of making the best of everything. Helen is very unselfish whether it be in the writing of a shorthand letter or whether it be in bookkeeping and she always helps in both, as she is very consistent in keeping her work up- to-date. We do not know for sure what Helen in- tends to do after leaving high school., We have heard she is a good cook besides being good in business. Whichever you may do, Helen, you may be sure that the whole bunch of '32 will re- call their associations with you with the most pleasant memories. MARGARET McCAULEY 6tPATy1 With mirth she 'makes the cavalier? lIf'Il'IT'Lbl6U A peach in dramatics, a whiz in the girls' chorus, and a scream in the Operetta spells Margaret to perfection. If you couldnit crack a grin at her witty jokes and imitations-well we won't mention your disease, it would be too horrible. Maybe because of her curricular abilities you think she is just an average in school. Oh, Noi The honor roll will settle that fand being an honor roll student for four years is not a usleight of hanclv trick either.j Pat has for two years been a representative of W. H. S. in the declamation contest. The school is proud to own you, Margaret, and will give you a Hying start through life. Here's to you! RUTH McCAULEY K 4 ! I ' ' This is 0, woman 's world ' ' Ruth is from Baltimore but what we want to know is where she is going. She is one of those students who is always well prepared and foremost in solving difli- cult problems. Just ask Miss Fiscel. 'iBeck', is one of our four year honor pupils, versatile, full of fun, and ever ready to see that Mr. Curd's room is occupied after school hours. In the musical comedy, i'Marriage of Nan- nettev, Ruth was just a dancing chorus girl but was promoted to a major part in All at Sea . Ruth is a good sport and can tinkle a merry banjo, uke, guitar, fnow you name onel so well that even you will want to yodel a duet all alone. Ruth is one of our speedy ustenogsn. We predict for her a snappy secretarial position. The class is backing you, Ruth.
