J'ANUARY CLASS li N . X R txxixx X Stewart Gloycr Mildred Gordon STEXVART GLOYER Stewie was a very likable fellow and made a host of friends at South. He showed his powers as an athlete by winning track em- blems in '26 and '27, and a cross country numeral in '26. He was a proud member of the championship mile relay team. As Randy Weeks, he scored a decided hit in the senior class play by his portrayal of a typical South- ernigentleman. Just to prove his versatility, he 'acted as sport editor of the Cardinal Weekly. ' MILDRED GORDON Looks are deceiving. Those big brown eyes of Mudie's do not tell the truth. She looks sweet and quiet, but oh my! She was graduated from the English Course. where her work in public speaking was of outstanding quality. XVhat a world of wis- dom fell from lips so young! Mudie is a good booster of both Girls' Club and Shield Club in school. and devotes herself with equal zeal to dramatics outside of school. Z1 Irene Hagen Adolph Hoffmann IRENE HAGEN Champion ticket seller. that's Rene Hagen -and an emblem presented in A---u--um. That she was a favorite among the girls is shown by the fact that she was vice-president of both Junior and Senior Girls' Clubs. Moreover, she was a very able actress, having skillfully portrayed the character of Mrs. Falkner in the January Class Play, Come Our of the Kitchen. One of the finest con- tributions to her schoolmates was the essay which she gave in A on Von Steuben Day. ADOLPH HOFFMANN Bud Hoffman is a very likable chap, al- ways ready with a witty remark for every occasion. The thrill he likes best to recol- lect is the first high mark that he got in high school. Next to that stands his ap- pointment as property manager for the class play. His interest outside of school was golfing, and if he golfs as well as he man- aged properties, he ought to be in a class by himself. ALICE HAGELUND Shorty is just another proof f that all good things come in small packages. For four years, she has brightened the halls of South Division with her cheery smile and quick wit. She came from the Sixteenth Avenue school and enrolled in the Stenographic Course. Through her diligent work, she attained the monitorship of Row 7, where racing down the aisle to take roll supplied her with a real thrill. What time she has left from her pursuit of the monthly excellent is devoted to travel. dancing, and reading. January 1928 knows her for its real all-around representative girl. Her vivacity. skill. friendliness, and scholarship, are qualities which have won this great distinction for her. Alice Hagelund

Erna's works and achieve- ments at school are well worth the time she spent here. May she always be as happy as she was at dear old South! HELEN GREDE When Pat, with her blond hair and pink cheeks, came from the Scott Street school. no one would ever have suspected that she had it in her to become a stout, elderly. female person of color -the Mandy of the January class play. At South she was a member of the Girls' Club, Shield Club, Century, and Girls' Glee Club. Once, too. in '25 she played basketball, but that ad- venture was accompanied by a mania for sprained ankles, and was abandoned.

Her outside interests are skating and swimming. She tells us of an embarrass- ing experience at school: Just to be foolish. one day, I crawled up the steps on my hands and knees. Upon looking up, I found Miss Kelsey smiling down at nie. 'My, are you trying to be a monkey?' she asked. ROBERT FERKO lntroducing a globe trotter. Bob Ferko by name. Every vacation, long or short, finds him mounted on his gallant gas buggy whose tail light is turned toward Milwaukee. And when he isn't roaming, he's hunting big game such as bunnies and chipmunks. Forum knows him as an able debater. the Civics Club as an alert investigator. Incidentally he is a member of the Accounting Course. Good mixers like Bob are sure to make a go of it wherever they are.

22 CARDINAL ANNUAL Ida Levin Bernard Latus IDA LEVIN XVhere's Mary? This is Idee's version of Love s Old Sweet Song, and she sings it all the time. No, she isn't very tall, but when sl1e's gone, you miss her. Just now Girls' Club. Century, and the Cardinal Busi- ness staff take up much of her time. She likes to play tennis but she takes more delight in playing bridge. although she rue- fully admits that she seldom wins. But remember, Idee. Unlucky at cards. lucky in love. BERNARD LATUS Just call him Bernie for short. He came from the Boys' Technical High school, and we wondered who he was and what he could do. XVe soon found out that he was a trombone player, so we attached him to our famous band. He also plays the violin: and he is interested in radio. tennis. and skating. Since we have known him, Bernie has been jolly and full of fun, and we guess he will try anything, at least once. Evelyn Jones Stephanie Iwitsch EVELYN JONES Sailor Boy at the skating rinks: but just Evelyn Jones at South. She came to us from the Scott Street school four short years ago. Her club activities have included Girls' Glee Club, and a four year membership in the Girls' Club. Among the outstanding ex- periences of her high school career, the one she cherished most was the state track meet at Madison. Her main interest outside of school was skating. She participated in many races, and won several medals. STEPHANIE IWITSCH This sunshiny maiden with chestnut hair has made an academic record to be proud of. Her favorite indoor sport was getting ex- cellents throughout her four years at South, while swimming, skating, and tennis occu- pied hcr time outside. Although she was usually quiet and reserved, Stef was beloved by hosts of friends, who enjoyed her sudden sallies of wit and fun and waited for her merry smile. None knew her but to love her. MILTON LOHR -And still the wonder grew, that one small head could carry all he knew. Whose head, did you ask? Why Mil- ton I.ohr's. of course. In ad- dition to pulling down nineties, his favorite indoor amusements were sport editing for the Cardinal. playing old Tucker in Come Our of the Kitchen, teas- ing his violin. and expressing his soul in linoleum blocks at which he was quite adept as his excellent w ork well attests. Presidencies were a mere baga- telle to him. for he ofliciated both as president of Forum De- bate and Century. Not satisfied with the number of studies he passed so well in. he returned to do post graduate work. Truly, life at South was a hectic affair for Milton. May his mantle fall on worthy shoulders!
