ONE HUNDRED SEVTX IHIRI FLA IACK E. BROD 2643 N. 30th Street Fitzsimons Iackie may be diminutive but he is absolutely not the shrinking type. In fact his stature measured in accomplishments would challenge almost anybody's. fprof. L. calls him Her- cules. J Iackie is an embryo politician, having served as a Home Room President and a Stu- dent Council Representative. Then he is on excellent terms with the writing fields-witness his high positions on the Centralizer and Rec- ord Book. However, Iackie has passed up both these lines, and has chosen medicine as his life's work with Temple the preferred Held.

Natrona Street Fitzsimons Marty fbacker-upperj Brown was the silent partner of our class. He desired no spot in the limelight, no noisy applause, he was con- tent for the most part to be just a spectator of all that went on about tnonsensicalj. His fprobably feignedl nervousness before a test or recitation, was often a source of much kid- ding by his classmates, but he always knew his stuff. Martys pet aversion was mimicking his 'fesses in a good-hearted manner. Marty's edu- cation was nevertheless consistent and he rates among the topmost fellows of our class. Barnwell Honor Roll. Z7

AL HIGH SCHOOL ISADORE BOLEF 2910 W. Oxford Street Blaine Not only was Izzy the master of a trenchant pen, but also a wielder of a potent tennis racket. Highly trained in journalism and literature he stood forth as the Editor-in-Chief of the Centralizer and was winner of both underclassman English prizes. Izzy's in- fectious personality accounted for his power in school activities, and his intelligence ranked him with the highest in scholarship. He not only excelled in English and History. but his consistant grades in all studies indicate his versatility. The best of luck in the future, lzzy !

IOHN SERGEANT BRAXTON 328 N. 42nd Street Sulzberger Iohnny's main interest for the past three years at Central has been school, and he's made a darn good showing at it. If grit. a full quota of thinking-matter, and a sociable per- sonality have anything to do with it we're sure he'll realize his ambition to become a teacher of foreign languages lhe's never received less than in his Latin or Frenchl. Chink in- tends to get his training at West Chester. Although he's a swing addict and a party man, he can appreciate classical music. Iohnny has won every honor badge and we expect him to keep on winning honors in coming years. Barnwell Honor Rollg Student Patrol: Second Team, Football. 26

E A IGH SCHOOL ' KENNETH CHALAL 1439 South Street Newton Kenny was a student who never let him' self go with undue enthusiasm, but was one of those silent men who weigh the facts before speaking. He was dependable and Well liked for his consistency in every-day affairs. One thing in particular he doted on was his har- monica. Harmonica playing was his joy. Kenny did well in physics, read numerous novels and enjoyed the syncopation of swing music. In the future, he hopes to have the title of Doctor of Veterinary Medicine tacked on to his name. Kenny seems very likely to achieve his goal, and his fellow students ex- tend him their sincere wishes for good fortune. Barnwell Library Assistantg House of Repre- sentativesg Inter-book Basketball. ROBERT NATHANIEL CHASE 4069 Filbert Street Gillespie A cheerful nature coupled with the desire to forget work has been an invaluable aid in Charlie's efforts to reach the end of the dili- cult, rocky path to graduation. No doubt we will remember him for the resigned manner with which he met the advances of all the professors. Charlie has picked a field in which we don't imagine he'll have much competition Hhe plans to become a mortician fundertaker to youl. No one of us who have really known him can help but wish him the best of luck in his future Uundertakingsf' Track Team: Centralizer Staff: Student Pa- trol: Table Tennis Team. 28 rwlwlofi
