OUR 1919 ANNUAL WALTER FRANCIS CIESIELSKI “Deacon” Walter joined our class in 11 17 from St. John's Kanty College. Erie, pa. Next to Farmer, Walter is the biggest thing in the class. It is not unusual for him to have his lessons done (once in awhile). Walt likes to rough things up quite often. If you doubt the veracity of this statement, ask any oppos- ing football player who has come in contact w.th him on the field of battle. As tackle on our eleven this year. Walt tackled everything that came along. Walter was the only boy in the Senior class brave enough to volunteer as an interpreter of Virgil. He held his own in the class with seven girls and never once weakened. There Is some rumor floating about that Paderewski Is Walt's uncle. This has not yet been confirmed, however. JAMES ALEXANDER COCHRANE “Jimmy” Ladles and gentlemen, allow us to present to you James Alexander Cochrane. He entered Chester High School in 11» 1T» from the Larkin (Iram- mar School. Jimmie is well liked by all. He is the girls' ideal, tall and handsome with copper-gold hair, anti a rosy complexion. In his Sophomore year Cochrane was the president of his class, and when a Senior, managed the basketball team as well as being Secretary of the A. A. Hut even Jimmy is not perfect. He has a habit of saying nothing with such absolute con- viction that he makes every one believe it (nothing). James is quite a fanatic on the Marine Corps. We have no doubt that future years will find Jim denning an officer's uniform anti breaking hearts at every step.

OUR 1919 ANNUAL CURTIS VEASEY BURKE Vamp Turkey” “Vamp” is a delegate to. Chester High from away out In the country. He entered Chester High in 1915 from Trainer Grammar School. Burke is a brilliant fellow. He is of the famous “strawberry blond” type; in fact, he is quite light-headed. We believe that Curtis is going to grow up before he is twenty-one, in spite of the fact that he is still a little childish. Vamp” is active as a track and basketball participant. During school hours at least he is exceedingly fond of arguing. If you ever find Curtis voluntarily seeking the company of the young ladies, please notify the editors and receive reward. HANNAH FRANCES CASSELL “Nan” “You may have your fox-trot or waltz, but it’s always a one-step for mine. Hannah entered the High School from the Franklin Grammar School in September, 1915. Every one knows Hannah’s ability, especially in teaching school and reading French. Hannah is very modest and does not tell her affairs to every one, but somehow we have heard a little about a young gentle- man, and we wonder who he is. He is a wonderful dancer. What is the reason that Hannah should prefer the one-step to all the other dances? We think that we know why she has this preference, but we may be wrong. We wish you good luck. Hannah, in all your future work, and we remind you now, that should you ever become a teacher, you should try not to forget these days when you were a student. 20

OUR 1919 ANNUAL JOHN FRANCIS CONNORS “Jack” Connors is distinguished in that he c;m crack more poor jokes In a given time than any one in the school. Ever since Jack entered in 1915 from Im- maculate Heart Parochial School, he has taken an active part in all school activities, and from the platform in the assembly room, delights in urging the students of Chester High to pour forth their school spirit. Connors was manager of the basketball team and is trying to get another letter for base- ball. As president of the Dramatic Club he has shown his remarkable execu- tive ability. The class need never worry, for as treasurer. Connors makes an ideal guard. If you ever hear some otic talking about debates or giving excuses for not having his lessons done, you will be safe in assuming that Jack is in the immediate vicinity. ETHEL SYDNEY CROTHERS “Bunnie” ‘'Bunnie entered C. II. S. from Upland Grammar School. September. 1915. She is the creator of the saying, The moon shines only in Upland.” Perhaps she knows; she lives there. Her usual routine consists of rushing home after school and doing her lessons so that her evenings may be free. “Mitchell” machines are her favorites, although a Ford limousine might do in a pinch. She is terribly afraid of any kind of insect. Ask her if there is a bug on her and she will shriek until it is a wonder all Chester does not hear her. For some reason “Bunnie is particularly fond of Bridgewater road on a sunny Sunday afternoon. Although she studies continually and is very conscientious about her lessons, she is an all-round good sport, and lots of fun. 22
