Oscar Battenberg, Wellesley, Ont., Can. Oscar is well versed in Pennsylvania Dutch, even more so than in Greek or Latin. Mathematics appeal to him strong- ly. He is very fond of sleep and often for- gets to come to class in the morning for this reason. Recy spends most of his shorter vacations at Convoy, Ohio. We have often wondered why? U U tJ Arthur Betz, Adrian, INIich. On account of his gentle manners and voice, Betsey has to bear an unusual amount of teasing. Arthur is a hard worker and always tries to do his duty with all his might. His motto is: Not at the top but climbing. u n rr William Brommer, Hampton, Nebr. Undoubtedly Bill is one of the most dili- gent (?) young men at the college. Next to athletics his best friend is his Hebrew gram- mar. He is captain of the Second Con- cordian basket ball team, and also holds the college record for the Hop, step, and jump. 5 Page eighte

Henry Abram, Bedford, Ohio. Hash, the initial man of our class, is a valuable and charming fellow, especially in athletics. Besides being a member of the varsity nine, he also proved to be a clever run- ner on last field day. He delights in the study of natural sciences and ancient history. Take care, you might learn something! U U XJ Walter Andres, St. Louis, Mo. Whop. This nickname does not sound very nice but Walter is not at all responsible for the same. Evidently the person that at- tributed this name to him did not know him very well. Exams have no terrors for this young man. His main hobbies are ' pitching and broad jumping. u u u Eric Baade, Fort Wayne, Ind. Boothy is one of the shining lights in the classroom, and is near the top in all studies. He is very much interested in athletics, es- pecially in basketball and in hurdling. An auto ride, however, is considered most sport of all l)y Eric. Page seventeen

Henry Burandt, Grafton, Ohio. Having been vice-president of his class since Sexta, Zoppy was in Secunda pro- moted to the presidency of his class, and, in- cidentally, of the student body also. Since then he has proved his executive ability in this capacity. Much credit is due him for the success of the Concordian. His tenor voice has earned an enviable reputation for him among the music-lovers. u rr tj Joseph Dinda, Maitland, Fla. Dang is a master of the English, Ger- man, and Slavish languages, and is excep- tionally good in Greek. Joe plays a cornet and is, for this reason, a member of the col- lege band and orchestra. His best friends are his pipe and a tin of fresh Prince Albert tobacco. n u tr William Dre ys, Akron, Ohio. Chief is a leader in many things and is therefore one of the most popular guys around the bunk. He is good in his studies with the exception of Greek, which seems to be his main difficulty. Bill ' s chief pastime in the classroom is sleeping. He is also quite handy at making automo- bile tires, and when summer vacation arrives one may see him at work at some tire fac- tory in his home town. His singing is ad- mired bv everyone that hears him. Page nineteen
