Volume Seven THE CORRELATOR Nineteen-Ten CHARLES B. Goss, JR., known as Pike, is a very popular young man, especially among the ladies. His good looks act like a magnet with the girls and it is not uncommon to see Piker surrounded by co-eds. Pike came to U. High from Culver Military Academy last year and since that has made himself a very popular athlete. As Captain of basketball he starred. Pike was also a star on the Swimming Team, Football Team, and Base- ball Team. Tripleee. SANFORD GRIFFLTH, or in short Grif, is rightly called school scribe and orator. He is all this and more. He has never been caught fussing, but the only reason for this is he doesn't have time to throw away. He is one of the hardest working fellows in the class, although he doesn't make a big noise about it. He first won fame on the Daily and since then has been given many important oihces and has made good in them all. Clay Club, '07, '08, 'l0g President, '09g Camera Club, Debating Team, '09, 'Class Football Team, '08, '09g Treasurer, Senior Class, Associate Editor, Correlatorg Tripleee. J. BARTON HALL is a U. Higher of recent date, having come only this year from the Lake View High School. Boots hikes to school all the way from Ravenswood every morning, which fact explains the ease with which he trots around in left held or circles the bases in base- ball. He feels most at home when nipping a near home run, and by feats of this sort has put a crimp in more than one batting average. The University of Chi- Sago will be his destination. Senior Year- Baseball eam. The record of HARVEY LOUIS HARRIS shows that with the keenest foresight he has fitted himself for prominence in the legislature. We find him, in his Sophomore year, earnestly acquiring the act of debating, serving as secre- tary of the class debating club. Realizing, however, that words must occasionally be reinforced by physical strength, Haw went out for football last fall and made the team. In the winter and spring quarters basketball and baseball furnished him his next interests and he won the coveted U.'s in both. Cornell is to furnish him a platform for his ambitions during his college career, where we wish him the best of luck.

Y., where he spent his other undergraduate years. Cornell will claim him next year. Boys' Club. Jr-:ssm FREEMAN FOSTER, known principally as Jess, Jessie, though small in stature, has been one of the big- gest girls in U. H.

ABE FRIELER, our star Senior Class Baseball pitcher, is a popular youngster, Abe delights in entertaining crowds at noon hour, or in Mr. Fox's 9:30 History Class by brilliant remarks.

Volume Seven THE CORRELATOR Nineteen-Ten MAURICE S. HORNER, JR., is a former Harvardite, Who, however, recognized his error in plenty of time. Jack is one of the few members, now in school, of the old Weekly staff, and might, with appropriate fitness, be termed a Son roi the Revolution. Had he only con- tinued on the Daily, after such a start with the parent organization, there is no doubt that we might have had a great editor among us. Sheiiield Scientific School, Yale, will be his goal, where he will devote his time to scientific rather than literary pursuits. Sophomore Year-Weekly. junior and Senior Year-Boys' Club. DOROTHY BUSHNELL HYMAN. Everybody who knows Dorn thinks she is O. K. She is quiet, but we are glad of that, for good-looking girls often are too talkative. She has good school spirit and supports every school activity as every girl should. If she hadn't been other- wise engaged she would have been even mixed up in politics. She is a big favorite among her friends, and is admired by strangers. Junior Girls Club, Senior Basketball Team, Executive Committee Girls' Club. Vassar will be her Alma Mater. REBER NETTLETON JOHNSON, our wireless expert, is also a marvel with the violin. Many is the time Reb has held us spellbound by his beautiful playing in assembly. Reb doesn't say much, but that is the reason of his popularity and great success. He will attend the Uni- versity of Chicago next year. Manager Tennis Team, School Orchestra, Engineering Club. HELEN IKEELY, 5459 Washington avenue. Helen is so mod- est and retiring that everybody at U. High may not know her, but those that do, say that there is no one like her for amiability. She came to us from the University School for Girls, where it is generally supposed she acquired her demure manner. She has no definite plans for next year, but expects to attend one of the Eastern schools. 34
