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.

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

l l JANUARY CLASS Elaine Schubring Robert Schuster ELAINE SCHUBRING An eager, wide-eyed little freshman opened the door of South Division in February. 1924. She's still a little girl, but no longer a freshman-indeed, she has all the ear- marks of seniority, even a nickname, Boots. It all came from the fact that she danced along her way. Elaine was agile in other things also --in public speaking for instance, where her eyes they spak sic things. Outside of school she dances, swims, toboggans, and makes music all the day. ROBERT SCHUSTER Bob has distinguished himself in the Glce Club where he has proved a valuable asset to thc music department. He was also a member of the Science Club. His South Division friends well remember him as the natty sailor in the school revue as well as a fine fellow in the classroom and in the cor- ridor. for he was above all a gentleman. Outside of school, Bob's time is taken up with music, especially the piano. 27 Eugenie Skacel Dorothy Schroeder EUGENIE SKACEL Eugenie Skacel enrolled in the Accounting Course. Now she has left South as a full- fledged stenographer and accountant. Jean's outside interests are varied. including skating, swimming, the movies, her dog. her ukelele, and, of course, Stephanie. Her charming personality and her captivating laugh have endeared her to many. When Burns wrote his poem entitled Jean he must have been thinking of someone who re- sembled our Jean. DOROTHY SCHROEDER With her sunny disposition and her de- lightful power of leadership Dorothy will always seem to us the ideal girl. XVhen Dot joined the Girls' Club and the Shield Club, her sense of responsibility and her pleasing personality won for her six of the highest offices of these organizations including secre- tary of Girls' Club '24, treasurer '27, presi- dent '27, treasurer Shield Club '25, '26, vice-president '26, president '27, MARGARET SHAW Margie! That's the name by which she is best known among her classmates. At her initia- tion into Girls' Club, she had the honor of being chosen the Grand Opera Singer, which greatly thrilled her very soul. Margaret Shaw is a graduate of the Scott Street school. At South she :chose the Elective Course. She loves all sports, swimming, hiking, and tobog- Y , A ganing, besides being a patient spectator at all football games. She belonged to Girls' Club, Shield Club, and the Athletic Association. She is quite active for such a small girl but her short stature does not hinder her interest in school life and ac- tivity. She has the true school spirit. and everyone who has be- come acquainted with Margie knows where to find a friend, Margaret Shaw
