JANUARY CLASS Russel Liebnow Frank Mazurek RUSSEL LIEBNOXV Only four short years ago Russ entered South from Grant Street school and regis- tered in the Science Course. Since then he has maintained an average of eighty-five per cent in all of his studies, and has found time toadevote himself to sports. He reached the height of his ambition when he became a member of the snappy South football team of 1927. Besides all this. he takes an active part in all summer and winter sports and finds time for Science and Civics Clubs. FRANK MAZUREK Muzzy is a whale of a fellow in size and achievements. for didn't he make the Ac- counting Course? And didn't he win his emblem in football? And didn't he belong to the Boys' Glee Club? And didn't he rollick through the class play in the guise of a statistical poet? And isn't his laugh the heartiest. and his wit the nimblest in school? He says he likes movies and dancing, but We say that we like Frank. 23 Violet Luedke Georgette Moran VIOLET LUEDKE Enter Jane Ellen. alias Violet Luedke. She is a distracting young person. arch, dainty, humorous. quick, impulsive, and piquant --so say the stage directions and we agree. South is grateful to Grant Street for giving us such a delightful heroine. Not only did she charm us with her role in the class play but with her talent for verse- making as well. She was active in the Girls' Club and was made president of the Girls' Glee Club. GEORGETTE MORAN Just by her nickname Georgie, one knows what an active, boyish girl she is. She's a good scrapper too-witness her campaign that ended in admitting girls into the exclusive Civics Club. As a reward for her efforts she walked off with the secretaryship of that active organization. In addition she belonged to the Girls' Club and the Glee Club, and to that other one which best suited her tastes, the Athletic Association. ALPHONSE MEDVED It was a loss to Bay View and a gain for South Division when Al Medved joined the Cardinal ranks. A quiet, modest chap he is, with a decided penchant for verse making, and a concealed admiration for Shelley. It got out one day in a theme. Many will remember Al as a member of the Hi-Y. as the humor-editor of the weekly, as a player on the senior basketball team. but above all as an emblem man of if the 1927 football team. Out- side of school Al lives on any kind of sport, but whatever game he plays, he plays it fair and square. He delights chiefly in playing basketball at which he is a whiz. Al is truly an athletic lad well equipped for the game of life, which he will play squarely, a spectator dares prophesy. Alphonse Medved

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!

24 CARDINAL ANNUAL Mary Pillar Lucille Mocgenburg MARY PILLAR NVhat shall we do when our sparkling Mary leaves us? Her unique giggle is one of the attractions of the corridor, and it will be a lonely place without her. However. we envy the grumpy old bachelors whom her merry laugh will cheer when she goes a-nursing, as she is determined to do, At present, Girls' Club and Civics Club claim her when she is not at RoloiT's rolling a strike or laughing. It won't be a hardship to be sick when Mary's around. LUCILLE MOEGENBURG Lucille Moegenburg, known as Lu, is a friendly, brown-eyed girl of a quiet, unas- suming nature. Lu entered South from the Sixteenth Avenue school. and proceeded to work toward the winning of her diploma, which would enable her to become a stenographer. Her efforts earned her the dis- tinction of a monitorship. Thoughts of her will remain with many who knew her as the girl with the friendly smile. Joe Pavlcje Henry Napierala JOE PAVLEJ E Joe Pavleje, who is known to his comrades as Shamrock. doesn't look Irish, but judging from the nickname, we should guess that he hails from the vicinity of Cork at least. Bay View was his Hrst stop, South his second. Joe put his accounting work to good use in his bookkeeping job with the Cardinal staff. He remembers best his habit of watch- ing the weekly Cardinal being made up. South wishes him great success and happiness in his future work. HENRY NAPIERALA The curious appellation of Nap is the possession Henry Napierala of the Elective Course cherishes. He entered from St. Adalbert's school, and while at South he be- longed to the Boys' Glee Club and the News- boys' Club. He wrote occasionally for the Cardinal: in fact, his experiences there de- veloped in him a live interest in newspaper work. Tennis for outdoor and' reading for indoor sport are his favorite pastimes. JOSEPH PARADOWSKI Joey Paradowski, who calm- ly tips the scales at thirteen stone, came to South from St. Adalbert's school. During his last three years, he has gone out for football and has made two emblems, one in '26, and one in '27, His size and grit made him a feared tackler, for when Joey hove himself at a man, the enemy knew that he had been hit. Not surprising then th:t Joey describes his outstanding experience in high school as studying football. playing it, eating it, sleeping it. and talking about it. It will be difficult to rind another athlete as con- scientious, skillful, and keen as Joey. It will be difhcult to find a chap more pleasing in all ways than Joseph. South will miss him at the football season. Joseph Paradowski
