James P. Garrison The most noticeable thing about Jimmie Is that he is never In a hurry. He is so quiet and calm that we doubt If there Is anything that could excite him. Too, we suspect that his favorite pastime Is sleeping! However, when Jimmie does play or work he does It well and he has shown his ability by participation In Intramural Sports. Intramural Sports 2; Committee Work 2. Joseph F. Gigliotti A combination of seriousness, gaiety, earn-estness, and diligence Is Joe. He is a faithful worker and has done more during the past four years for the betterment of his school than any one other person. He is almost the father of the Service Club and is a keen sponsor of all Intramural activities. He has always maintained a very high scholastic standing. Joe, we of the Year Book Staff thank you for your cheerful cooperation even though you were not able to be one of us.

Charles E. Gilmartin Chas is more retiring than his brother Tom and he also has different interests. He enjoys fishing, and living so near the reservoir, he does a lot of it and not always from the bridge, we’ll wager! He is an ardent quoits enthusiast and he and Herby Cantrell have many close and exciting contests with the ’’ringers falling thick and fast. Charles is always a good sport and ready and willing to do anything that the gang wants. Committee Work 1, 2, 3, 4; Boys' Chorus 2, 3, 4. Thomas J. Gilmartin We used to have the impression that Tommy was a retiring sort of boy who sought solace in seclusion but we have been forced to change our opinion. He has become an active participant at all the school dances! Then too he also has been seen driving a delivery truck at a very speedy pace. His generosity and courtecusneas have attracted many friends to him. County Chorus 3; Committee Work 1, 2, 3, 4. 1935

Kurt B. Frankc On Kurt wo place our bet for the senior class 8 moat successful artist. Through his four years he has been outstanding for his fine and funny cartoons, as well as for his drawing and sketching. To Kurt, the Wampus owes a great debt of gratitude for the unselfish efforts he expended on its behalf, and the year book staff takes this opportunity to thank him for all the work and advice that he so cheerfully contributed, and to wish him much success in the years to come. Intramural Sports 1, 3; German Club 3; Wampus Staff 3, 4; Art Editor year book staff 4. Alfred F. Fredricks A1 is a tall, modest boy who never forces himself on anybody but who always is willing to cooperate. He has been a regular figure in intramural sports and has also become one of the best pitchers of our school baseball team. Baseball 4. Margaret I. Freeman Dark hair, deep brown eyes, plus a lovely profile--that's the result of a first glance at Peg. To the casual observer she appears to be quite a serious young lady and perhaps she is, but she also possesses her lighter side which she never tries to conceal. She is undoubtedly the best actor in our class, and in her work is very creative and original. She also has a good voice and is a capable songster in the Glee Club. On you Peg we are placing the dramatic aspirations of the Class of '35 and we expect to see your name in lights before many years have elapsed.

Friedman Al's beat interests are in sports in which he has participated intramurally for the past four years. His ability as a banjo player went a long way in making the debate orchestra a success. Al's wide smile and despairing ways have greyed many a teacher's hair. His humor will undoubtedly make him many more friends during the course of his life.

Robert J. Goodwin To the casual observer Bob’s motto seems to be, Silence is Golden , and perhaps It Is. But believe us he certainly is a natural athlete. Agile, quick, and graceful, he can play any game well. He’s a fast and shifty runner, a good shot in basketball, and a slugger in base ball. He is always ready and willing to abide by the decision of the umpire and give his opponent the advantage. Intramural Sports 1, 2, 3, 4. Mildred A. Gordon Mildred is another one of our senior girls who believe that smiling is the best policy, and that smile is only one of the many symptoms of her unfailing optimism. She has kept herself in retirement for these past four years but lately she too has been making a bid for the limelight. Harry F. Helbig Harry is one of the Germantown boys and lives up to all that they stand for: fun, frolic, and foolery. His two outstanding possessions are his sorely-scratched Chevle and his much-abused good nature. Several of our school high steppers would feel themselves thoroughly stranded if his Chevle failed to run some Saturday night. Harry's popularity is eternally recorded on the battered speedometer of his flying vehicle.

Herrmann Throughout his four years of high school Rudy has consistently maintained the highest of scholastio records. He is a model of efficiency and takes advantage of every stray second to get some work accomplished. He is a fine musician and has been our school accompanist since his freshman year. Capable, wise, and willing, Rudy is the nearest thing to sophistication of whioh Boonton High School can boast.
