B.. 3--1 0 Sometimes you may hear out on the baseball field during a big game, Come on fellows. a little pepper. or Come on, talk it up! Or, in room 206 you may hear a boy with a gavel in hand bang on the desk and say, The meeting will please come to order. Yes, that is Bob Fischer, president of our class for the past two years. captain of a great little base- ball team, and president of our Hi-Y club. Bob is a very quiet boy in the classroom, and a very active one outside of the class- room. He has that certain power of drawing friends very close to him. and once you know him. you find many pleasant hours in his company. Bob is headed for a medical career and we are sure that he will make a great success as Robert BI.

This quiet, conscientious boy goes about all his work with the ambition which should be inspiring to his fel- low students. He has many friends and is liked very much be- cause he is always in a cheerful mood. Karl has had one par- ticular friend who always sits on Karl's right in any classroom. Kolbie is the name. He has many ambitions and goals which he is always striving to attain. His chief ambition is to go to college where he hopes to pursue an engineering course. He is the kind of student who makes the teachers wish there were more like him because of his studious qualities and line attitude. Louis H. GRIESHAMMER - Lou, Louie Baseball. 2-33 Glass Basketball, 1-2-3 9 This blond haired boy is one of the quietest fellows in the class: and is he shy and bashful?

- , Q . ,- ..s f - .M '4 HELEN EDKIN Dranmtie Club, 23 Girl Reserves, 3-4 0 A slim Ggure, big brown eyes and dark hair. No. it's not .loan Crawford, but Helen Edkin. Vvfilson High School's dancing lady. She is always singing Little Jack Little's favorite com- position, P. S. I Love You. I wonder to whom? Helen is of the jolliest nature and can really keep secrets. She is a mem- ber of that great sorority. The Girl Reserves of XVilson High School. and takes an active part in all their activities. She possesses a great deal of intelligence in her class work and really thinks before speaking. Her leisure time is spent on Seibert's dance floor where, it seems, she greatly enjoys herself.

If you don't you will probably miss out on the greatest piece of luck you will ever have, because Ruthie is going to be Somebody's Stenog and you might be the lucky one. Ruthie's soft natural waves are the envy of all the girls. But Ruth's head is not only something nice to look at: it also holds plenty of brains, and we are sure they will carry Ruth a long way. She is always smiling. This has proved to melt the icy stare of any teacher. She sings beauti- fully. Here's luck, Ruthie! PAUL FEHR ' Football, -l ' Paul came to us in his senior year from our friendly rival across Fifteenth Street. Although he is not what you would call a studious boy. one can find him hard at work in the mechan- ical drawing departmcnt. In the classroom he is very quiet. probably absorbing Miss Moyers wisdom or Mr. Garner's con- clusions. XVhen asked what he intends to do after graduation he replies in an optimistic way, I do not know. but hope that something big will come my way. Opportunity knocks but once and Paul is waiting patiently. eighteen OLGA FERENCY Olgze Operetta, 3-lg Dramatic- Club, Ivluke-up, 43 Glee Club, 3-43 lnterc-lass Basketball, 1-2-3-4: Girl Re- serves, 2-3-4: Year Book Staff, 4 ' Olgie is a very quiet lookinv young lady, but appearances are certainly deceiving. As soon as she is with her immediate circle of friends. a great change can be seen to come over this otherwise quiet girl. Her carefree and sunny nature have greatly increased her circle of friends. She has participated in many ac- tivities and has been an asset to all. She hails from the State of Ohio and we are all glad that Olga came to Wilson Boro to be one of the dignified seniors to graduate in '35. The bus- iness world will certainly be aware of the fact that it has within its ranks a girl of real stenographic ability when Olga takes her place behind a typewriter, with her shorthand pad beside her, in an office back of a door marked Private
