 v. Francis Rak Tall, lanky and a strawberry blonde--that’s Francis. He is a humorous and exceedingly opto-mistic classmate, and you really have to know him well to appre-date him. Interclass sports are his activity. Edward Randall Ed Ed swings a mean tennis racket and it no doubt keeps him in shape for his Service Club duties in the halls. He is somewhat of a dreamer, but a regular guy. Philip Ricci Phil Phil is what we call a he-man. His record on field and court are the envy of all boys; he’s tall, dark and handsome and a swell dancer. What more oould one ask? Cyril Riohardi Syd Syd’s very likeable and has quite a way with the fair sex. Here’s how he does it: he walks up to a charming miss, looks oh, so ooy, rolls his big, blue eyes and----she listens to anything he might say. George Richardi Combustion George The halls of Boonton High wouldn’t be complete without George’s famous smile while on patrol for the Service Club, or without the usual shocks felt whenever he lives up to his name of Combustion George. William Ritchie Bill Recently it was discovered that Scotty’s suppressed desire was to wear kilts to school. He really looks nicer in his varsity football uniform, in whioh, although he is the silent type, he has raised many cheers.

William Muhl Bill A big, blonde football hero! Meet Willy Muhl, a great linesman on the championship team. He not only plays football; remember the weird lighting and sound effects in Spooks ? Well, Willy was partly responsible. Frances Nagel Fran Here is one whose interest in music is most outstanding. Frances has contributed much to the Girls Chorus and to the County Chorus with her beautiful, well-trained voice. Her other hobby is dancing. Elma Oliver Elma's scholastic record is one for which many strive and few attain. She displays the same conscientious spirit in her committee work, Girls' Hi-Y, chorus, and National Honor Society. Daniel Phelan Danny Danny has the reputation of being the fashion plate of our class, and he certainly lives up to it. Danny’s Irish smile and wavy hair are but two of his many charms. Richard Plahn Dick When you hear a wisecrack, the man behind it is usually Dick Plahn. Dick's hobby is making airplanes, and he has made und exhibited many fine models. He is president of the Aviation Club. Henry Popp Bud Take a keen wit, a lot of crazy antics, a distinct talent for literary work, a handful of dynamite, and mix it all together. The result is Bud Popp, our Class play-wright and practical Joker. v-v:

Russell Sims Russ Around school, Russ seems to be a quiet sort of ohap, but to his friends at the Riverside Athletic Club he is quite a mis-ohief maker and loads of fun. Helen Sisco Blonde, pretty, attractive— that’s Helen. In spite of her petiteness, she’s exceptional in athletics, basketball, volleyball, end soccer. She was a member of the Big Pond cast, Wampus staff, and the debate team. Margaret Smetzer Peggy Although Margaret’s only been here two years, she’s been quite active. She's been a member of the library staff, chorus. Senior play cast, and several committees, displaying friendly cooperation always. Allen Smith Smitty Smitty’s favorite tune should be For He’s a Jolly Good Fellow, for that’s a title that fits him to a T . Though his moustache may fail, his wit and Jokes never do. Raymond Stackhouse Ray Ray’s best interests are in sports. He has participated in intramural sports for three years and graced the ranks of varsity football as a Senior. Ray’s quiet smile makes us want to know him better. Mildred Stauder Milly Quiet? Oh, that’s Just because you don’t know Milly. Really she's Just as full of fun —or more so—than any of us. Milly’s contributions to the class in the form of committee work, have been very valuable.
