NVe should not blame the kiddies for deriving marked enjoyment from gazing upon Willie's physiognomy, but we must reprove the adults for not extending their heart- felt sympathies to this same young man who has so notably distinguished himself by at- tempting to introduce juvenile tactics into the High School. Were we to dig down deep into Mary's soul we could iind music. It is.with no small degree of pride that we proclaim Bill as an accomplished violinist. His operatic selections, which are quite melodious, have shook the very foundations of the Cedar Street building, much to the anger of the students. VVilmer anticipates continuing his musical career at some con- servatory, and may he bud forth into a musician of first magnitude. Farewell, Bill! FRED M. MILLER-.Latin Scientific Fritz, Freddie, Boner, Freddie the Sheik Class Base Ball, 1, 2, Zelos, 1, 2, 3, -Lg Treasurer, 4:3 Camera, 4-. Dont' rush! Don't push! It is only Freddie trying to translate his Latin. Fred, as we all know, is one of the Latin sharks of the Class of 1927 Feb. Boneri' is also a star base ball pitcher, and in one game, it is is said, he has walked as many as fourteen men in a. row. He belongs to such great base ball teams as the Midgals and Rinkeydinks. Frtiz is very bashful and is one of the woman haters of the class. Fred can sometimes be seen with such roughnecks as Noela, Abels and ltudolph. Fritz intends to enter the University of Pennsylvania, and we know he will succeed. Au revoir, Fred

James Bonneville I-indenmuth Jacob Andrew Maier JAMES BENNEVILLE LINDENMUTH--Technical xaJimmy,vr nl-Aindyn Hi-Y, 3, 43 Camera Club, 3, 44. Behold, ladies and gentlemen, what we have with us. 'Tis none other than our be- loved Jimmie James is one of those quiet chaps who never looks at girls. VVe suspect that he likes flowers, especially the Rose, He is one of those people who love to take a trip on the Tenth Street flier in order to get home. VVe believe Lindy burns the mid- night oil at his friend's home. I believe, if one were to question his friend Merkelse, some great secrets would be revealed. But no matter, James, you still have the best wishes of our class for a successful career. So long, old top! JACOB MAIER-Technical uJake1l Class Foot Ball, 1, 2. Here we have a most prominent member of our class. Jake distinguishes himself by his fine speaking powers. His speech, however, has its faults. Often the proctor sec- tion is quiet, only to be interrupted by a deep voice. This, as we all know, is Jake talking to himself. But he is a, real scorer in his school work and in making friendsC?j with the teachers. While conversing with other students, his favorite topic is, How rotten some teachers are. VVe all know that this is all in jest and always agree with him. You can iind Jacob in back of all the school functions with a determination hard to equal. So, with all his jesting, '27 Feb. knows he will make his mark in his undertakings.

MILLER--Commercial Butch, Curlie, Mud, Dick Lo and behold! The clubman of our class! This handsomeC?j countenance can bc seen any Sunday evening at the NVest Wyomissing Club. If not found there, he is either in the company of Ruth, Mary or Helen. From the reading above it is known that Butch is a good deal of lady's man, but this is not the c'ascC?J He is one of the best butchers in Reading, and can be seen cutting up meatsf?j any time of the day or night. Mud is one of the best known big' game hunters of Reading and vicinity, and can be frequently seen in the wilds of Mt. Penn and Oakbrook hunting rabbits and blackbirds. But we know that Butch will succed in anything he undertakes. PAUL RILEY MOYER-Commercial Pete Class Secretary, 2, 3, 43 Class Foot Ball, 1, 25 Class Basket Ball Captain, 2, 3, fl-g Class' Base Ball, 2, 3, 4-g Commencement Program Coin-mitteeg I-li-Y, 4g Alumni Editor Red and Black. Behold! Pete, the inspiration of all women. Even Pola says he is a nice boy. Pete is a great help to his dad as a clerk and errand boy, the only trouble being that he spends too much time at Pola's when going there for an order. NVe must admit that Pete is a fine student and knows his stuff in stenography. He is also great bankerC?7. B0b VVeiherer does the work and he does the blotting. Taking things more seriously, Pete expects to go to Philadelphia, where he wishes to continue his commercial course, and we are sure he will make good. Here's luck, old top!
