“Frankie FRANCES HARTSELL OSBORNE Pleasant Garden, N. C. Entered Fall 1923 Class Day Committee (1); Union (1), (S), Secretary (S); Comitia (1), (S), Treasurer (S); Home Economics (S), President (S); Art Club (S); Natural History Committee (S); Proctor Committee (S); Chairman Girls’ Choir (1), (S); Gym Squad Leader (S); Monitor 7:15 Collection (1); Music Club (S); Characteristic Committee (S); Manager Tea Room (S). Frankie is as nonchalant and complacent when you arc trying to fuss her as she is when she is working or studying. Her congenial nature and affability always make you feel at ease. There are not many in school busier than she, nor with as much musical talent; for we cede place to her when it comes to tickling the ivories, which she does remarkably well in such places as the community house or at “sings. Characteristic: Cement machine (mixes well). Carolina sun. I'm lonesome. Guilford College “SlKl ALVIN SCOTT PARKER 311 Hamilton St. High Point, N. C. Entered Fall 1923 Radio (1); Parliamentary (S); Union (S). Scott (Siki) Parker the original battling Siki (pronounced sicky). His pugilistic propensities caused him to join forces with the Democratic party, and never was North Carolina more ably represented. His talent as “rook champion has never been contested; and we know that his party will hang together, if he manages it with the same skill that he does his ten cards. Characteristic: Mule (Democratic). Thanl( Cod. I—I also—am a Democrat. Guilford College DAVID SANS BROWN PENNOCK, JR. 1630 Allegheny Ave. Philadelphia, Pa. Entered Fall 1919 Ataraxa (4); Radio (3), (2). (S); Latin Club (3), (2); Second Soccer Team (1), (S), Numerals (1), Insignia (S), Class Team (1); Brown and White Board, Associate Editor (1), (S); Year Book Board, Athletic Editor (S); Swimming Team (S); Rustic (S); Union (1), (S); Parliamentary (S). There are reports about that Davy used to be a good fighter and a frequent one, but the exuberance of youth has waned, and he now tends strictly to business (his own, too, by the way). In addition to the fact that he plays soccer, writes for the Brown and White, and is Athletic Editor of this book, Davy is a stamp collector, and we know that that requires perseverance, energy, and perception. Characteristic: Telescope. Slowly provoked, he easily forgives. Penn. State 7 Davie”

JANET MORRIS 131 West Walnut Lane Germantown, Pa. Entered Fall 1923 Class Day Committee (1); French Club (1), (S); Latin Club (1); Treasure Seekers (S); Comitia (S); Home Economics (S); Union (S); Choral Society (S). Jay's pink tinged smiles never give you the impression that she is sad; in fact, she isn't, except maybe in French class. We've seen her hold down the wheel of a car. and she's a veteran swimmer, too. If you should happen to hear a shriek, you will know she is just having a little difference with her wife, but it really isn't as bad as it sounds. She keeps us posted on the Haver ford songs; so between them and her blushes, we are well entertained. Characteristic: Box of Rouge. Blushing is the color of virtue. Vassar “Isabel ISABEL WOOD MOWRY Woonsocket Hill Road Woonsocket, R. I. Entered Fall 1924 Union; Treasure Seekers; Comitia; Chorus. Isabel has broken down that old tradition that New Englanders are very prim and dignified. Can she laugh? Well, just visit English class and see. She has only been with us a year, but she has definitely proved to us that she should have come sooner. We aren't worrying about her future, for she has a mind of her own, and is in no way afraid to express it. Characteristic: Old Fashioned Bouquet. On their own merits modest men are dumb. ANNE LEA NICHOLSON 118 East Oak Ave. Moorestown, N. J. Entered Fall 1922 Athenians (2); Union (S); Comitia (S). “Le Penseur is in the shade when it comes to silence. Nancy is a fair representative of that quiet, studious type of person who always gets every thing done, and done well. Hard work has its rewards, too, for she is enter ing Bryn Mawr in the fall. Physics and advanced French are a couple of ex amples of the tasks she undertakes. Characteristic: Turtle. Hot in rewards, but in the strength to strive, the blessing lies. Bryn Mawr 26 “Nancy

CHARLES EVANS PUSEY Darlington, Pa. Entered Fall 1911 Brightonians (2); Radio (a); French Club (2), (1), Vice President (2), Latin Club (2), (1), (S); Rustic (1); Union (1), (S); Parliamentary (S); Brown and White Board (S); Soccer. Insignia (S); Basketball, Numerals (1), Insignia (S); Elocutionary Contest Finals (S). “Say, Charlie, got anything to eat?“ Charlie may be practicing on his violin but he repeats the well worn “Yea, look under the couch and you'll find some sandwiches, bananas, hot dogs, and- “ A true friend in need. Did you ever hear him recite, and send shivers up and down your back with the murder of Duncan by Macbeth? Many thanks, Charlie (not for the shivers). Characteristic: Basket of fruit. It is more blessed to give than to receive. Dartmouth GEORGE ASHBRIDGE RHOADS 123 E. Central Ave. Moorkstown, N. J. Entered Fall 1922 Latin Club (2), (1). (S); Brightonians (2); Radio (2). (1); Parliamentary (S); Union (S); Natural History Committee (S); Junior Varsity Soccer Team (1), Varsity Team (S), Varsity W“ (S); Assistant Track Manager (1); Third Rank Skating (S); Class Day Committee (1); Chairman Class Pennant Committee (1). One could do worse than be obliging and courteous. Courtesy is, figure atively speaking, George's middle name. George doesn't mind if we kid him about his form on the ice or on the track, because he knows that we know that he knows that we are just kidding him. George is a good hiker, but often takes his bicycle; at any rate, we make him walk on Natural History Day. Characteristic: Venus. Life is not so short but that there is always time for courtesy. Haverford COMLY BIRD RICHIE 154 East Main St. Moorkstown, N. J. Entered Fall 1922 Chairman of Second Class and below (2); Advisory Committee (1); Brightonians (2); Rustic (2), (1), (S); Radio (2), (1); Union (1), (S); Parlia- mentary (S); Second Rank Skating (S); Junior Varsity Soccer Team (2), Numerals (2), Varsity Team (1), (2). Varsity “W“ (1), (S), Class Team (2). (1), (S), World Team (2), (S); Track Team (1), Class Team (1), (S). Our quiet and hard-working neighbor; he is carrying eight subjects this year, so we really can't blame him for minding his own business. He's the only one who can ski on both skis; very often he takes a vacation and has some fun. and some one said he was going to break the discus record. Soccer season is over, but we just want to remind you that he was one of our starriest players. Characteristic: Slide Rule. Let every man mind his own business. Antioch College “Richie’ 28
