THE BACONIAN SARA G. LIEBERMAN “Sally” “Perserverance leads on to victory.” French Club—Home Economics Club—Dram- atic Club—Year Book Staff We pause here to pay tribute to a girl who is sincerely liked and admired by everyone in the class. Since her entrance in the fall of ’26. she has been a sturdy booster of the class of ’30. Her cheerful willingness to cooperate has had much to do with the success of our many activities. “Sally” is one of the few seniors who seem to remember every assignment and she is con- tinually bothered by someone wanting to know “the English or History for tomorrow.” We sometimes wonder how she can keep her temper, for we have never seen her lose her composure during her extremely successful career at Baconia. BERTHA LEVINE “Birdie” “Bert” “Serene is she who never makes a sound.” Home Economics Club “Birdie” drew general attention to herself by her unusual quality of being able to keep silent. Even as a Freshman—and Freshmen are supposed to be noisy—she was always quiet and dignified. She has maintained this reserve throughout her four years at Bacon Academy, with the result that few of us know her very intimately. “Bert” manages, however, to put in a sentence or a word just when it is needed. She has been a loyal supporter of our class. Continue to say the right thing at the light time, “Birdie,” and the world will be yours. PAULINE RUTH LUBIN “Paul” “Silence never betrayed anyone.” Home Economics Club Very few of us know “Paul” for like “Bir- die” she rarely speaks in class. But when she does recite, we give her our undivided atten- t on. for we know we are to hear what is what, and why. Pauline is rather a serious, dignified girl and we rarely see her wasting her time in idle gossip. She is very charming, though, and makes a very attractive participant in any social function. When she leaves Baconia, she carries with her our heartiest wishes for hap- piness. ACADEMY BACON Twelve

THE BACONIAN GLADYS KALMANOWITZ “Babs” “Gittle” “Laugh and the world laughs with you.’ Home Economics Club—Dramatic Club—Stu- dent Council—Baconian Board—Year Book Staff—Senior Prom Committee. Who does not remember this young lady as class treasurer in our Freshman year. Mr. Atwood told us that our dues would have to be paid up, and believe us, “Glad” certainly followed Mr. Atwood’s instructions. This year she represents the Senior Girls on the Student Council. Her record in scholastic work is an enviable one and when she goes out into this world we feel sure everyone will like and trust her as well as do the student body of Baconia. EDNA KASHKIN “Eddy” “Quiet, but still there.” Baconian Board—Basketball—Year Book Staff —Dramatic Club—Home Economics Club— Senior Play. Edna is the quiet type of girl who takes delight in keeping her word. When “Eddy” says she’ll do something she’ll do it. In conse- quence, we have come to depend upon her more and more and no small amount of credit is due her for share in preparing this year book. Other organizations have clamored for her help also. “Eddy” is an active member of the Ba- conian Board and has taken part in more plays than anyone else in school. Can she act? And how. In her studies she has easily main- tained a very high average.We learn that she is a very good cook. too. Edna has a charming disposition, a ready smile for all, and many friends. We all are happier because we have known her. Good luck to you, Edna. FREDERICK J. KOPP “Tarzan” --- Came Hermes, winged messenger of the Gods.” French Club—Orchestra—Basketball Team— Captain of the Track Team—Captain of Fire Squad—Baseball Squad. The class of 1930 is richly supplied with athletic young men. Here is one who has done much on the basketball, baseball and track teams. His studies have not suffered because of his sports activities, however. “Tarzan is a good dancer and popular with the fair sex. Next to Mr. Goodrich, he has been the main- stay of the school orchestra. We are all proud of the record “Freddy” has left at Baconia! BACON ACADEMY Eleven

THE BACONIAN SAMUEL OSCAR MAIOFES “Mozart” “Oh Love, has she clone this to me, what shall alas, become of me.” Dramatic Club—Fire Squad—Orchestra—Sen- ior Play. In our Junior year this young gentleman got the job of treasurer of the class. And he cer- tainly made the students payup their back dues! “Mozart” is a jolly soul, always joking. He seems to have knowledge of almost every subject and lets everybody know about it, too. In our future life, I’m sure we will always remember Sam. RUTH MINTZ “Ruchel” “Great oaks from little acorns grows.” Class Treasurer—Basketball—Dramatic Club— Home Economics Club—French Club—Bacon- ian Board—Senior Social Committee—Year Book Staff—Senior Prom Committee—Senior Play. September, 1926, brought a tall stately girl to Baconia. and thereby furnished another rea- son for making our class illustrious. We have chosen Ruth our secretary for the past three years and this year she is class treasurer. “Ruchel” is also a member of the Baconian Board and has much to do with its success. Her culinary work has at some time or another been sampled by all of us. and we have begged for a second helping. May her luck in life be as great as her work at Baconia! MARY JOSEPHINE STERN “Rod “The multitude is always in the wrong.” Home Economics Club When “Red” entered Baconia, she immed- iately started making friends. She may have the temper that is generally acknowledged to go with that color of hair, but if so, she has continually held it in check. Mary is a very good-natured girl. Her very laugh is often heard ringing through the walls of Baconia. Her ready smile has endeared her to us all. We are sure her list of friends will increase as she goes up the road of life.
