THE SPECTATOR Senior Statiatira Samuel ll. Ackerman-Wyckoff Grammar School, Butler High School, Student Council. ,This neutral youth blows in from the distant country. Catching trains is the only sport he indulges ln. His hobbies are eating, sleeping and doing nothing. But we don't believe all this, Sam, and anyone with your head will do something big. Best of luck to you. Rose Alper-Schools 11, 15: Dramatic Society, Choir. Ro expects to be a teacher and her hobbies are dancing, having a good time, and going to the Majestic on Friday night. We predict that Ro will be an unusual teacher and will keep up her hobbies. George N. Anderson, Jr.-School 5, L. D. S., Choir, Ushers' League. Hall! this Totowa youth-Pride ot the Farm. The chap who made Colgate's Brllllantlne famous! Hey, gang! note this blrd's college-Montclair Normal. We suggest the appointment ot a commit- tee of one to look after this wayward youth. Andy's hobbies include everything except smoking Meccas. It's sad to part with this live wire. Randall Atkinson-Schools 20, 13: Foot- ball, '18. Ran intends to study surgery at Rut- gers. Take a tip from somebody who sees him at work in Room 45, sixth period. Keep away from him when he hangs out that shingle in 1928-he's some butcher. The class votes Randall the third best athlete. Hey, mister, let me carry your grip. Alice M. V. E. Balnbrldge--School 13, Choir, Mel Club. Is the Mel Club open for new mem- bers? We've only been able to trace three. It must be a 'grand and glorious 1eellng ' to be popular, Al, She gets all Qllaaairal Olnursr this popularity by ordering us all around in the lunch room. Most of her athletics were cutting gym with I. J. and then mak- ing up the time. School never bothered Al, but she knows she came here to make a life, not a living. Here's wishing you luck. Natalie E. Blewettf-School 21. Another one who lsn't here for the lm- provement of her mind only. Nat wants to be a private secretary for a rlch man with a bad cough. Remember your school motto, Nat - If your business interferes with your pleasure, glve up your business. You say you have no societies, but we know all about you in society. Good-bye. Charles G. Brustlln-Schools 19, 5, To- towa Borough No. 1: L. D. S., Spectator. Chuck, the studious, would like some day to become manager of the Standard Oil Co., but we would not want to see you become an oil can, so please stay away. In his spare moments at present he likes to play tennis, go canoeing, or go tlshing. After graduation he expects to take up a business course. Milton Chapman-Schools 4, 15, 61 Brook- lyn 150, 72, 158: Spectator fArt Editorj Staff, L. D. S. I would suggest that Mickey start to fulflll his ambition, namely, becoming a second Vernon Castle, by opening a school for terpsichorean art. I-Ie's an accom- plished young man whose talents run in all directions, everywhere from picking 'em up to drawing. Mickey's athletics consist of chasing rainbows. Florence Clegg--Schools 13, 243 Choir. Flo says her ambition is to last until May 29th. Why, we wonder? Motoring is her hobby. With whom, may we be so inquisitive as to inquire? 7 Q. U-

THE SPECTATOR Now its glassy surface is hazy, As a bank of fog would be, But with concentration, The future clearly I see. ll U lk In a northern forest a lumber jack Has just chopped a huge tree down. He turns, 'tis Jack Weber, the popular! Let our President lead us to town. In canoes on a peaceful river Misses Schneider and Malone Are being propelled by romantic young men Whose names must remain unknown. N We see Anna Petzold teaching In a country school house of logs. On his own little farm Duke Wishnefsky Entertains with music, his hogs. That bright looking girl who passed on her steed Is Esther M. Mitchell, of course, What she did desire fmany men who'd admirej Are following her a-la-horse. Yonder crowd is cheering George Bothyl, Who won for his team first place. The reason he beat Joe Baxter We won't tell lit takes too much spacel. And now we are right in the city Ruled by Charlie Gorgas, the mayor. With Pop Galloway as the chief of police They run things their own way. Beware! In a neat barber shop, Arch Van Blar- com Is clipping some gentleman's mop. Great Scott! If it ain't Gus Schlichtlng! Vivlano sweeps up the shop. At the manicure table I.. Kaufman, As neat as e'er polished a nail, Sits manicuring John Guyet, Our biggest fusser. All hail! Down the street comes Ken Auburn, Leading the village band. They welcome General Raphael Stein. Perseverance gave him command. That shrimp chopping meat is Ran Atkinson, In a butcher shop of his own. He took a course in surgery, Yet he cannot tell meat from bone. You can see Pinky Pfister working In an office fthe floor abovel, While Nesbitt, the struggling artist, In the garret, lives chiefly on love. That handsome marble building Is the home of The Voice of Nineteen, Our weekly. The editors, Harper And Charniak, cannot be seen. On the street we meet Becker and Hutch- lnson Hurrying on to a. show. They say we'll know some of the actors. The price isn't high-let's go. The theatre's called the Majestic In the box-office, to my surprise, Is Al Bainbridge selling tickets. No wonder the crowd's such a size! Helen Blauvelt grabs our tickets lln an llSl16I B suit she's neatl, Finds a huge convenient pillar, And behind lt gives us a seat. The show starts off with moves- With the greatest stars of all, Rene Jones and Axel Allen. For Axel the ladies all fall. They next show a Keystone Komedy, The kind which wastes good pies. The antics of Clara Elsaesser And Murph Steinberg bring tears to your eyes. And all the while an organ Sends music through the hall, The girl at the keys is Eleanor Thorp, Whose work at High you recall. Then they start the vaudeville With a singing and dancing skit. Phil Hall and the famed Nat Blewett with their acting have made a hlt. And next comes the bean pole, Llfsitz. Who can reach from the stage to row F His juggling act with Ed Wolek Reminds us of Mutt and Jeff. The Groothedde twins, Dutch comedians, Crack some jokes we won't repeat. fContinued on page 331

THE SPECTATOR Celia Diamond-Schools 23, 53 Dramatic Society, Student Council, Choir. We have a presentiment that Cereal will end her days in Passaic. We are further enlightened by the fact that J. W. has a Pierce-Arrow. No wonder riding proves so attractive. But why leave America? Don't home products suit? Catherine Eleanor Dowling-St. Bonaven- ture's School, Choir, P. H. S. Girls' Club. Cathie is a good little girl, whose ambition it is to be a cranky schol marm. But think, Cathie, your hobby of lying in bed in the morning will have to be changed, unless school houses will be llxed for your convenience. Eleanor V. Dunn-School 6, Choir. Mlckle wants us to think her only accomplishments are in the line of movies and dancing, ut we'll advise all curious students to take a peek at the honor roll. Eleanor expects to go to Normal School and then paint. Don't you know the painters are on strike? Clara Marie Lucille Elsaessar-Schools 21. 153 Spectator Staff QEdltor-in- Chlefj '18-'19.

S. 14, 6: Pi Alpha Phi, La Societe Francaise. Her ambition is to become president of a Bachelor's College, which would be quite a job-or rather, position-to hold. Bert is fond of playing tennis, hiking and driving, but the mystery comes in 8 when you try to find who it is she likes to drive with. Helen Charlotte Friedman-Schools 1, 4: Dramatic Society, Orchestra. Here's a girl who openly admits her ln- tentions of entering the college of wedlock. From your blank, R. F., of Newark, seems to be the' favored one. Helen lovesxto drive in his Stutz, preferably alone, she says. We earnestly expect that she will have her Mrs. degree soon. John XV. Galloway-L. D. S., Ushers' League. Pipe this husky youth's ambition: To be a millionaire and live in the country! Pop is the bouncer of the Ushers' League. Jack is one of our all-around athletes and we'll miss his sort, but Mr. North says that the coal bill must be cut down, so out into the cold, you steam- heat absorbers. If good wishes would count, your millions are made. Charles Crawford Gorga-s-Dramatic So- ciety, L. D. S., Fencing Club. Chuck says his ambition is to become a man, Your class votes you tho student most likely to succeed, so we guess you will become a man, Charles is a good athlete and an exceptionally good speaker. The L. D. S. and the foot- ball team will miss a boy of your type. We hope Lehigh will finish the good work begun in P. H. S. Say, Charley, where do you buy these trick middle names? John Guyet-School 15, L. D. S., Dramatic Society, Ushers' League. Jack, the lady killer, was declared to be the biggest boy fusser, there being only ten in the class who didn't think so. He claims his hobbies are too numerous to mention: in other words, he couldn't think of any worth while mentioning. Jack expects to go to Columbia. Allan G. Harper-School 15, Dramatic Society, L. D. S., Civic Club, Editor of Spectator. Al intends to follow in the steps of the former illustrious men of letters by first going to Bowdoin, after which he
