■ BERENICE SMITH “Smiuy Treasurer 2 President 3 Beta Delta Sigma Class Play 4 Latin is Berenice’s hardest task, and boys her easiest. VVe wonder if the State of New Jersey will ever have her on its teachers’ pension list. We doubt it. Her pleasing friendly manner have won many friends for her. ISABEL TAYLOR “Sally Class Play 4 “Her voice was soft and low, an excellent thing in woman.” By perseverance, patience, a good sense ol humor, she has gained the esteem of her class- mates. What do you think of her as a teacher? BENTLEY SMITH “Smiuy” Orchestra I -2 Year Book Staff 1-4 Vice-Pres. 4 Class Play 4 “Smitty” is the wise-cracker of the class. Dur- ing English period his wit appears the sharpest. Yes, we might call him the shiek of shieks. Law' at Syracuse is his ambition. CECELIA TINTLE “Cel You are now gazing at the quietest girl in the class. 1 he most noise that she makes is the “click” of her typewriter, as she carefully and accurately “pounds away.” HILDA TOWNSEND Hilda is persistent and earnest in her work; al- ways cheerful, hut quiet. Bound together by mu- tual interests, she and Maude are inseparable. Nor- mal School holds attractions for her. 26

HELEN RIEGER Basketball 3 Not very studious is Helen; but an accurate sten- ographer, a good friend, and a loyal member of ’20, would characterize her. She’s the girl who marks us late or absent. Future success be hers! HELLEN SEARLES “Sis’ “Silence is golden” is Hellen’s belief, and yet is she always silent? She always does her best and is a faithful worker. Stenographer Hellen will, not long hence, be on the job every day. KATHERINE RICKMAN “Kay An artistic temperament is Katherine’s. She would much rather paint a picture than write a theme or prepare a history lesson. She believes in taking life as it comes, and just smiles or paints the years away. Artist? Musician? Housewife? Which? GEORGE SCANDLEN Secretary Hi-Y 3 President Hi-Y 4 Music has charms, oratory has charms, sleep has charms, women have charms, for George—but if you should ask him what he likes best in the w'orld —he would answer—a cold bath at 2 A. M. George Washington Inn preferred for the “dipping. MARGARET SEARLES “Peg Margaret is called quiet and sweet by her friends. Her favorite subject is Chemistry! We think that you will make a very good and cheerful nurse, Peggy. 25

ALICE TRENT Alice is so thin the we are afraid every breath of wind will overpower her. Never mind, she’s a good faithful worker and a very competent girl. Success, Alice! GEORGE UMSTADTER “Umpy” Class Play 4 “Music hath charms to soothe the savage beast. Here we have the Senior cut-up who has helped “see the” many an audience by his part in our quar- tet. Does he appear as if he’s immune to feminine charms? Guess again! Sometimes looks are de- ceiving. JEANNE TROWBRIDGE “Jane” Year Book Staff 4 Class Play 4 Here is a demure girl, who thinks much, says little, and bothers no one—not even the teachers. Of her sterling character we are convinced, and this chance to say so, we have cinched. IRVING VREELAND “Ding” Social Committee I-2-3-4 (Chairman) “Ding” is one of the most popular boys in the class. His ever-present good nature and his versa- tility have won many friends for him during his high school career. Success at Rutgers! MILDRED VAN ORDEN “Mid” Beta Delta Sigma Volleyball 2 Here we have a typical exponent of the adage “To change her mind is woman’s privilege.” Changeable—that’s “Mid.” Her ever-ready smile and hearty laugh’ ought to assure her success as a nurse. 27
