JANUARY CLASS Z5 Teddy Pogorzelski XVilliam Radtke TEDDY POGORZELSKI Teddy--even to this day of seniordoml He came in 1923. but stayed only two years. when he decided to see what the world held for him. His absence was brief: he returned to fulnll his contract. In '27 he earned his football numeral, an achievement that gave him great satisfaction. Most astonishing of all, he confesses that he enjoys sitting upon a mossy bank in silent meditation and angling for the finney prey. There's no accounting for tastes! WILLIAM RADTKE Of course, he's Bill-no one christened by the dignified name of William is anything else. The rest of his cognomen is Radtke. Forest Home Avenue sent him to South to enroll in the Elective Course from which he is now graduating. Automobiles form the major interest of his life: in fact. he re- gards his service in the auto shop at Tech as his most valuable experience. XVe expect some day to hear of Bill, the master mechanic. Lydia Reinkc Lorraine Reid LYDIA REINKE i Lyd is a preposterous contraction of Lydia, yet we like it, because it refers to our own Lydia Reinke of the Stenographic Course, After her graduation from Grant Street school, Lydia entered South. and later be- came a general reporter on the Cardinal staff, where she worked diligently. As an assistant monitor of Row 6 she also served her school. Fussing around with books delights her soul, and so it is not strange that library work at- tracts and delights her. LORRAINE REID Lorraine Reid is called Lorry for short. She entered from Grant Street school to take up the Elective Course. She was a member of Girls' Club. Forum, Century. Science Club, and the Cardinal business staff. She took part in a memorable debate at the Forum in which she argued the possibility of Henry Ford's five-day week plan. What she most enjoyed was soliciting ads for the Cardinal. TERRY REIMER Terry's interests reside in the very front ranks of modern progress. They all center about aviation and model aeroplanes. Although he is all up in the air outside of school, in school he joined heartily in the work of the Civics Club, the Cardinal Chess Club, and the Boys' Glee Club. His first experience in singing before Assembly A is his most poignant recollection. And twice he saved the reason of the stage coach by hooking up the lights in class plays. His go- ing will cause regret on the part of many of his friends. A re- turn visit to his alma mater will bring pleasure to these same friends. They often wonder if he is not taking up aviation just so he can follow in Lindy's footsteps and become a national hero. Terry Reimer

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

26 Mildred Reiss Eugene Reich MILDRED REISS In her quiet, unobtrusive way Millie has made an enviable place for herself at South. NVhat if she did get lost on the first day of school-she's never been lost since, not even in the maze of Girls' Club, Science Club, and Shield Club activities. She was a ring girl, and squad leader of Shield, and vice- president of the Girls' Glee Club, not to mention an Assembly A reporter all through the entire year of '27. EUGENE REICH Many men are versatile, but to Eugene Reich goes the distinction of being a scientist, a public speaker, an athlete, and a property man. Gene's versatility began to develop at the Sixteenth Avenue school whence he was graduated. His real versatility was dis- played during his senior year when he won a football numeral, and became assistant proper- ty manager of the class play. Besides public speaking, Gene likes electrical work, and in- tends to be an electrical engineer. CARDINAL ANNUAL iss' :Gif - . . c Q: R. I X ' fig..

He has changed schools ten times, each time on the South Side, but he managed to stay at Grant Street long enough to be graduated. At South he chose the Elective Course. His greatest thrills were being called a poet. and having an article in the Cardinal in his sophomore year. He was graduated in three and one- half years. He enjoyed playing volley ball at Grant S Just treet school and at South. ALBERT REIP what relationship the nickname Duck- soup has to curly hair, good-nature, and a voice like a silver bell will always remain a baffling Football. mystery. Yet Ducksoup Reif it is. with emblems for '26 and '27. track with a numeral in '26, and basketball in '24, record o '25 and '26, constitute the athletic f Al. His popularity record includes the chairmanship of the January Class Com- mission, the class PHYLLIS ROSINSK Those sparkling eyes? That rippling smile? None other than Rosie's to be sure. She entered from St. John Kanty's school and enrolled in the Elec- tive Course. She has been an active member of'Girls' Glee Club and Girls' Club and admits she had great fun running for vice-president of Girls' Glee Club. Outside of her school interests. Rosie enjoys playing Phyllis Rosinski and the role of Burton Crane in play. I the piano, singing, and doing her daily dozen by dancing her evenings away. In the latter she has become quite proficient and could very well give some would-be dancer a few lessons. Be gay and everything will turn out all right. is her motto. Phyllis was always a most will- ing helper when there was work to be done for Girls' Club, or Glee Club.
