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.

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.

EDNA WILLIAMS “Ed” Beta Delta Sigma Quiet, demure, and friendly is our classmate Edna. Even though Algebra is the bore of her existence, we feel sure she will graduate and be- come a full Hedged teacher some day. HERBERT WARDEN “Ouzel” Class Play 4 “Duzel” is a good sport. He has helped in all the debates by singing in the quartet, and was our humorous ‘Tim” in the class play. Go to it at College, hoy. ELIZABETH ZEAK “Bettie” Can’t you see Elizabeth facing a class of young hopefuls, and putting them through the paces of the fundamentals for their mental training? The answer is—we can, for surely her grim determina- tion, and her ability to command will make her a successful teacher. 28
