PATRICIA H ATRY Third from the top. Patsy is one of the most activc girls in the class of forty-four. As secretary of the l.R.C. she has been one of its most contributing members. Patsy is also known for her oratorical and writing talents. IRENE HENDRICKSON Rene is the tall pretty girl who played the part of the beautician in the Senior play this year. Her accom- plishments are rather limited but she is accredited with being the only student to have created anything in Chemistry Club. At present Rene is studying hard as a cadet nurse. GEORGE HERM AN Frank Sinatra's most dangerous rival is our own George Herman. who has had more than one Woodmere Miss swooning. His grand playing on the varsity basketball team this vear. and his broad good natured grin won for George his popularity in Woodmere. NATALIE HERR A chemistry student with explosive lab ability. is Natalie. Her antics in Public Speaking are things to be remem- bered as well. She is forever giggling over a funny story which, when she takes time out to think about. she really enjoys. WALTER HEYMAN Walt has been a very faithful member of the band throughout high school. As suave John Randall in our Senior play. he proved his acting talent. He is better known as the other half of the Bev-Wallt couple . MILES HOYE We can remember Miles as the fellow pitching in those fast curved balls to the bewildered players on the visiting baseball teams last season. This season Miles helped out with the behind stage work in 'gReserve Two for Murder and could always be counted on for his advice concern- ing the use of firearms in the production. FLORENCE HYMES Woodmere's own Paderewski has certainly proved to Woodmere that she has a special technique on the piano. Flo, who is going to continue in her study of music after high school. has also loaned her talents to the French Club and Footlighters . BETTY JACKSON Cute, dark haired Betty could always be seen combing her long locks at both beginning and end of all classes. Her sense of humor broke many a dull moment in class, which was always appreciated. How she could forever find something humorous to say is still puzzling the majority.

She is ever calm and collected. and is seldom to be seen angry or complaining. CAROL FEIN BERC Carol is one of those rare species of Woodmerites who has been in this same school since Kindergarten. Her extra-curricular activities have been mainly confined to the field of sports. Though inclined to sudden outbursts of knowledge in history, they are usually found to be most helpful. LEONA FRIEDMAN Leona left the class of '15 to join our ranks this year. She was a member of the Spanish Club. and as a Wood- mere Wizard she helped to puzzle the rest of the stu- dents with her magic tricks. ROBERT CLASER Tall. lanky Rob is very quiet in his ways. His interest drifts easily from school work to athletics in which he has excelled in both football and basketball. Much of his spare time has been taken up hy trying to decide to which Sophomore girl he shall give his attentions. PHYLLIS GRADY l'hyl . who cattle to us from Ohio. was a welcome addi- tion to our class. In her capacity. as president of the Red Cross Cluh. she has done enviable work. Always sweet and calm. it is very easy for anyone to like her. GRETA GOLDBERC Blonde-haired Greta is always busily combing her hair one minute before the bell. Sorority sisters take up the greater part of Gret's time and attention. but she man- aged a few spare moments for the Spanish Club activi- ties. HELEN COLDRICH Helen is seldom seen without Greta or some other mem- her of her sorority. She is treasurer of the newly or- ganized French Club and devotes much of her time to its activities. She, too. was an important member of the cast of our Senior play. WALTER GREENBERC Since Walter is both comparatively quiet and new to the Senior class. we haven't gotten around to knowing him very well. We do know. that he is always coopera- tive and willing to help you in any way. any time he is asked. Nga 0 J ,U 1 I9
