Et MrQ.LR..E S or ROY FRICK Toy Oprrclla, 3: Glen Club, 3. Silence is golden . That is one of Roy's chief reasons for his quiet manner. Here's a boy who could raise an orchid from an onion bulb, if possible. Roy is one of the few Senior boys who can dance. Please don't crowd, girls. Roy's ambition is to go to Penn State and study landscape gardening. We wish him the best in life because we know some day he is going to Say it with Flowers. EDITH FULMER Edie Opercltu, 2: Girl Rest-rvrs. 3. Edith is one of the few-and-far-between redheaded girls of the Senior class. However, this doesn't mean that she is quick- tempered or temperamental. On the contrary she is just as jolly and good-natured as a girl can be. Moreover, Edith is one of those precious people who can be termed a real friend. Perhaps her heredity and environment keep her from be- coming fickle or inconstant. At any rate there is a certain something about her personality that wins friends on all sides. Please don't change, Edith. PAULINE GREENBURG Greenie Curly Class Buslzclball, 3-4: Les Memolres, 4: Echo, 4. This vivacious miss is one of those people blessed with a happy- go-lucky temperament. Cheerful, sprightly. and brimful of giggles,-our curly-haired classmate will undoubtedly lead a very happy and contented life. Pauline has always had a scholastic standing better than the average. Her English com- positions generally receive praise and favorable comments from Miss Moyer. If she ever takes up journalistic work. we will certainly look for something out of the ordinary from Pauline. Please don't forget your old classmates, Greenie. CHECCHINA GUZZETTA Kiki Class Basketball, I-Z-3: Opvrelta, 2-3-4: Glee Club, I-2-3-4: Les Mcmolres, 4: Echo, 3-4. This happy young lady is so congenial and companionable that she is a universal favorite. Her merry blue eyes and smiling lips never seem to lose their friendliness. Checchina is both musical and literary minded. Surely such a talented person de- serves recognition in one line or another. We'll surely miss her cheery smile and willingness as a friend. At the beginning of the year, Checchina's lack of punctuality was a cause of great concern to the authorities, but for some reason or other she has turned over a new leaf. When the roll is called up yon- der , will Checchina be on time? nineteen

79' eighteen LES MEMOIRES -E e -fe ee e . 'ss THOMAS ELLIOTT Tom Tim Baseball, 3-4: Class Basketball. i-4: Cher-rlcacler, J-I-4: Clce Club, 3, Echo, I-3: C'ass Prcsidenl, 2-3-4. At the football games everyone cranes his neck to see where that shouting for cheers and much waving of arms comes from. Oh, now we see who it is--none other than Tom , He has been one of our cheerleaders for the past few years. He also played a big part in making the Junior Hop of '30 a big suc- cess. We, the class of '31, salute our big class president. What would our classes be like if we didn't have the gorgeous rays of light that come from Tom's blush to guide us through some boring subject. HILDA B. EMMETT Hilda Operetla, 3-4: C'ec Club, 3-4: Les Mc-moires, 4: Echo, 4. Typist-in-Chief: Honor Student. This petite young lady is one of the most energetic girls in our class. Her nimble lingers have hovered busily over more type- writers than it would be possible to enumerate. Of course. everybody can't be fast but Hilda certainly has more than her share of speed. In her capacity as typist-in-chief of the Echo. Hilda has probably put in more over time than any other Senior. Unlike the toilers we learned of in Problems, she has never gone out on a strike. ln fact, she seems to enjoy being busy. If everybody followed the example set by this dainty. gray-eyed miss, wouldn't the world be a much pleasanter place to live in? MURIEL FLUHR Flare Varsilq Basketball, 4: Class Baslzelball, I-2-3, Operutta, 2-i-4: Girl Reserves, lg Glee Club, 2-3-4: Les Mcmolres, 4: Ecko. 4. Muriel is one of our artistically-inclined classmates. Her work in poster making and decorating has already reaped a large har- vest of praise and commendation. Anyone who can draw pretty girls as well as Muriel, deserves success and esteem. We are glad that she is to continue her studies in Art after leaving high school, because we know she will make Hood. May the kindly regard of the art critics always be lVluriel'sl Best wishes from the Senior Class to a future Nell Brinkley! J OSEPHINE FORNWALT Jo Varsity Basketball, 3-4g Class Basketball, I-2: Opcretta, Z-3-4: Girl Resrrces, 3-4' Glee Club, I-3-4: Les Memoires, 4: Echo. 3-4: Honor Student. Josephine has long been one of the most brilliant players on our Basketball team. Any girl who can intercept passes as neat- ly as she can, would make a wonderful professional. Josephine is also one of our super-intelligent feminine students. Her dimples and blue eyes are certainly misleading because while they look so carefree and unconcerned, we are very well aware that Josephine must have burned a great deal of midnight oil in order to achieve such a high scholastic record. With two lines of life work open to her. we shall expect great things from Jo. Don't disappoint us!

PP' so twenty LES ME1ylp1REsg WW, LORETTA HALE Hardy Class Basketball. 2-3: Operctta, 2-3-4: Senior Plau, 4: Glee C'ub, Z-3-4: Les Mcmoires, 4. One of our youngest and most distinguished members is this attractive blonde. Dancing is one of her many accomplishments. Acting is another, for she had an important part in the senior play. Loretta is a true friend and well-liked by all. She is unselfish and always Willing to lend a helping hand to all who need it. Once in a confidential mood she said she would like to become a nurse, but now her plans have changed and no one knows just what she will do. But we know that whatever she does, she will do well. Carry on, Loretta! HELEN HARDING Din Class Basknlball, I-2: Operctlu, 3-4: Senior Plan, 4: Cilrl Rv- svrues. I-4: Glce Club, 3-4: Les Memourvs. 4. Vkle all remember this young lady as the aristrocratic and haughty Mrs. Falkener in the Senior Play, but Helen isn't really that way at all. She is a very quiet girl, but she has a sense of humor and is Willing to make friends with everybody. Anyone so conscientious as Ditt is bound to be a success as a trained nurse. and we wish her the best of luck! DAVID HARRISON Dave Varsity Basketball. Assistant Manager, i, Manager, 45 Oper- vltu, I-41 Cleo Club. 34: Les Mumoirvs. 4. Many things about Dave seem to be different from the average. Although he is not unusual in his studies, he is unusual in other respects. The most important of these is his height. No, that's wrong. A teacher would say the most imporiant item is his quietness. He believes in the old adage, Don't count your' chickens before-. No, this is it: Children should be seen and not heard. Although Dave cares little for sports. he is the most successful basketball manager Wilson has ever had. All successful men need some recreation. His is driving some- body's machine. Here is some good advice for you. Don't make the hobby a habit or you will end up as a truck driver. Be a chauffeur. It's easier. RUTH HELLER Ruth Class Basketball, 1-2-3-4: Opnretta, 4: Glee Club, 4: Echo, 4. Honor Sludent. Ruth is very quiet-looking, but appearances are certainly de- ceiving. You'll generally flnd her surrounded by a group of laughing girls. Listen to her giggle in the near future and watch your blues fade away. Ruth has another reason besides that of merriment or amusement for her infectious laughter. Just take a look at those gleaming pearls. Any time the unemployment situation gets out of hand. Ruth will undoubt- edly receive a position as chief advertiser of Pepsodent or lpana. Just one of your all-embracing smiles, Ruth, will do the trick!
