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!

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

Ladies and gentlemen, crooks and horsemen, kindly hear me. Here we have the hand- somestC?D boy in the class. Ted is a good dancer and may be seen hopping around at Bach's on Saturday evening. Noche is just chucked full of knowledge, because he never lets any out. Izzy is the best horseman- in the class, he has been riding through his Latin for four yearsC?J. Noche is as hard-boiled as they come. He lives on hardtack, dog biscuits and applejack. It is often said that Izzy can Charleston to the music of any orchestra. But even with all his faults, we know Ted will make good at Syracuse and will uphold the standards of Old Reading High. ' LUTHER PARKER-Technical Luke Camera, 1. Behold! Our class inventor. Following in the footsteps of Edison and Steinmetz, our classmate would stay up until the early hours of morning trying to perfect some chewing gum contraption. For this reason he takes a liking to physics, chemistry and electrical work, and was an active member of the Camera Club. Luke is easy and cau- tious in motion and words, and whenever in an argument with his co-workers, namely. Letcher and Zerbe, he never raises his voice to a highC?j pitch. 1Vhether he continues in the inventive line or not, such determination as his deserves a place on the top of the ladder, and '27 Feb. bids him farewell with the assurance that he will make the top round.
