RUTH MARSHALL NORTHAM April 6, 1926 Ruth also is a native of Salisbury. She was a mem¬ ber of the Student Council, Home Economics Club, Li- bray Club, and Monitor Club. She played intramural fieldball and basketball, and entered the track meet. Her future is yet undecided, but she may become a stenographer. We sincerely hope some one will in¬ herit her love for good jokes. JEAN WINTER OWENS March 29, 1927 “Shorty” hails from Salisbury. Her activities in high school included membership in the Glee Club, Dra¬ matic Club, and Monitor Club. She has participated in several operettas, and in the Junior Class Play. She has also played intramural basketball. In her home room she twice held the office of vice president. Her work in the Junior Red Cross was an inspiration to all. Her plans for the future are promising—to attend medical school and specialize in surgery. Jean leaves behind her Red Cross work and the lovers of W. H. S. ALICE LEE PARKER October 21, 1926 The one contribution of Whiton, Maryland, to the 1943 class is red-haired Alice Lee, whose rapidity in French translations astonishes us all. In the future, if she doesn’t follow the road to matrimony, we will know her as a hard working wage earner. EMMA FRANCES POTTS October 12, 1926 Salisbury is Frances’ home town. “Sis” has shown great interest in all intramural field meets by par¬ ticipating in them. When “Sis” graduates, she plans to go to college. There she intends to carry on with athletics as she did at W. H. S. MARILEA POWELL June 27, 1926 Marilea is another Salisbury gal. “Pal” has taken active interest in the Red Cross and intramural sports. She is also a member of the Home Economics and Camera Club. Next year Marilea is planning to at¬ tend S. T. C., where she will probably give more parties like those she gave in her senior year.

SCOTT MORRIS April 9, 1926 “Potz” is another native Salisburian. Like a great number of his male classmates, he, too, has been some¬ what unwilling to participate in class elections. Nev¬ ertheless, “Potz” has contributed much in the way of spor ts, namely football. Scott carries with him to college that typical happy-go-lucky way of his. HERMAN STANLEY MUIR, JR. May 22, 1924 Stanley hails from Princess Anne, Maryland. He was interested in football and played in his second, third and fourth years. He was a Wi-Hi News reporter in his first year, home room secretary, and monitor. Stanley would like to join the United States Army Air Corps. He will be remembered by his misunder¬ standings. PEGGY JOYCE MUMFORD August 15, 1925 Peggy is another one of our native Salisburians. Participating in intramural sports and an active mem¬ ber of the Monitor Club, have been Peggy’s main con¬ tributions to Wi-Hi. We will all remember Peggy by the friendly manner that she showed by those slaps she gives on the back. If Peggy shows as much ac¬ tivity in her future as she does around school, she will certainly make a good nurse. VIVIAN LAVINIA MUMFORD July 4, 1924 Salisbury claims Vivian as another of its daugh¬ ters. Throughout high school Vivian has shown in¬ tense desire to do her part for bettering the school. Vivian has served as a Red Cross Representative, Mon¬ itor, reporter for the newspaper, member of the Glee Club and Operetta. Vivian will be remembered by her curly brunette hair. She plans to become a nurse. , TOM WHITE NEALE Tom came from Modestown, Virginia. He played varsity basketball in his first and third years, intra¬ mural in the fourth year, and three years of football. In his fourth year, he offered his services to the Vic¬ tory Corps and the Monitor Club. “Wolf’s” ambition is to become an engineer. Tom carries with him his fun-loving spirit and cooperativeness. 25

I DOROTHY LUCILLE PURNELL January 19. 1926 “Dot” was bom in Salisbury. She was on the field- ball and volleyball teams. She is a member of the Senior Commercial Club and plans to be a stenogra¬ pher. We can’t recollect “Dot” without recalling “Joe”, too. FREDERICK CHARLES RAU, JR. June 19, 1925 “Charlie” was born in Easton, but has been a faith¬ ful Salisburian for many years. He was in the band his first year, and in a few plays. As a senior, he was an active air raid warden. “Charlie” wants to enter the Navy or Marine Air Corps. We are sure he will be deluded with fan mail. MATTIE w LEE RAYNE February 12, 1926 Mattie Lee is another daughter of Salisbury. In high school Mattie has served as secretary to the Glee Club, reporter to the Wi-Hi News, monitor, member of the operetta, Dramatic Club, and intramural sports. Mat- tie leaves behind her friendliness. She hopes to be¬ come an orchestra leader or a vocalist. RONALD HOLMES RAYNOR May 4, 1926 Holmes comes from that great place, White Haven. Maryland. He is a member of the Victory Corps and a school Air Raid Warden. After school he wants to join the Army Air Corps. PAUL BENNETT ROGERS June 1, 1926 Paul hails from Long Island, New York. He has been treasurer of the Junior Class and President of the Senior Class. His other activities cover the Vic¬ tory Corps and Fire Warden. Paul wants to go to An¬ napolis, but Uncle Sam may have a different idea. He can always be detected by his enunciation of the word “first”. 27
