RODGERS-Technical Fred, Freddie Sure is the word that describes Freddie's answer to all questions he k'nowsf?l From all appearances, Fred will never grow up in his actions, for he is still filled with the mischievous and kid's pranks for which freshmen are noted. But there are signs of his growing, for he will soon he assistant scoutmaster for the illustrious Troop 13, B. S. A. A secondary thought, as far as Freddie is concerned, is women, whom, it is said, he entertains frequently. His method for entertainment is quite novel, for we understand he makes all kinds of pretty faces for them. The third thought in Fred's mind is school. I-lc regrets terribly that he must leave Reading' High and is looking for a school that will suit him as well. lVe wish Freddie utmost success, wherever he goes and in whatever he may undertake.

No, no, my dear readers, this is not an advertisement for Mellin's food, but it is only Dizzy, one of the brilliant men of the class. Dick'i has many accomplishments to boast of. Some of these are dancing, indoor sports, champion tennis player of Reifton Chas no competitionjg also very fond of Latin.- Almost every day he could be found, after school, in Mr. Bingaman's room, studying' Latin. Dick was a member of the Culver Rowing Crew, which beat the Great Lakes Naval Academy this summer. He is the only Reading fellow that has ever made the Varsity rowing crew at Culver. Dizzy is also the chamf- pion walker of the class, receiving his experience walking home from Reading to Reiifton every Saturday night for Sunday morningj from Anne's house. Dick expects to study law. The class wishes you a successful career.

Permit me to introduce to you, gentle reader, the only real he-man of the class. Jim can be seen in Viest Reading at all times of the night. Gilda changes girl friends so often we c'annot keep track of them all. Epp never rushes more than two at a time, and these appear to he E. L. and H. It. for the present. Jimmie, however, is a good fellow and hard worker. XVith the exception of leading some man's daughter to the altar, this he- man has not decided what to do after graduation. However, we know that, no matter what he undertakes, he will be a success andra credit to lt. H. S.

At last! The green-eyed, galloping Romeo, Quick Silver Jim, faster than a lubricated bolt of hall-bearing lightning on the track or with trots. This illustrious young person is both an athlete and a scholar, and S0l'1l6 even go as far as to call him in- telligent. Anyhow, if he isn't, the fact's not noticeable, for he has won a gold scholar- ship and been President, Captain or Manager of almost everything he has had anything to do with at school. Both the class and the school are mighty proud of him. He is going to be a lawyer, and intends to prepare himself for the profession at Dartmouth and Harvard. Success to you, Jimmy!

Here is a fellow who is so funny that he would send YVill Rogers to the poor house and force Elmer Pinckney to seek a new job. Gawge is certainly one of the wittiest chaps of the class. VVhenever there is a bunch of fellows laughing, he is usually the starter. George also has a rather artistic temperament. One has but to look at one of his notebook or book covers to verify this statement. Q'l'he observer will be lucky if he can tell what the cover looked like originallyj In spite of these Hdruwbacksj' George is one of the most popular members of the class. VVe wish him worlds of success in his later life! HERMAN L.

Hoim is a studious chap, who is very quiet and unassuming. Rudy, as he is known to the fair sex, is quite an accomplished dancer, being seen at Bach's quite often. Pouch is an active member of the Migdal basket ball five, being manager of the team. If Hoim is seen with a certain young lady, Estelle by name, have no fears, for he has gone with her but two short years. Well, Rudy, we wish you success in whatever you undertake. Adieu!
