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!

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.

This gentleman, whose pulchritudinous portrait you now behold, is judged by his classmates Chimself includedj the best looking specimen turned out since the days when Anthony played peek-a-boo with Cleo on thc Nile. XVe warn any female competitor for his desirable strong muscles to keep her distance, as Ellsbeth has a long term lease on his affection. On the other hand, Wally has been a busy man in the school. He has taken an active part in class and club activities. He is a hustler, and we know he will succeed. Good luck, WVal! CHARLES ELMER SCHAEFFER-Technical Ellen, Ding, Charley, Pete Varsity Foot Ball, 2, 3, 4, Captain, 4-g Varsity Base Ball, 2, 3, 4.4 Scrub Foot Ball, 15 Tech. Club, 3. Attention, please! This is none other than the athlete of our class. VVhenever Ding goes through the halls in passing classes, a few footsteps, because he provides an easy passage with spends the greater part of his time in foot ball and frequent visits to Ellen's home. But, then, he has a with the rest of us. By his actions each morning in winter never comes. Zip! Off comes his coat, and in fellows can be seen following in his his broad shoulders. Although he base ball, we know that he makes perfect right to be a married man coming to school, one would think this fashion Ellen walks through the halls. Ding has one record in Reading High which is hard to equal. This record lies in his numerous pouplar speeches from the assembly platform. The class wishes you success. Adieu! -
