OUR 1 92 9 ANNUAL 27 Here’s another boy that nature in- tended to be a “puella . Else why did she so endow him with the gift of gab? No statement has b en made in problems class that Ellis hasn’t chal- lenged. Argue? Why. argument is his food and drink, exposition his des- sert. and explanation his demi-tasse. Not con ent with mere originality in argumentation, he even falls on Vergil with malice aforethought and makes Neptune “bicycle over the waves”! ELLIS DWYER WAYNE EGBERT Freshmen, sophs, juniors, and even seniors must stand aside and gaze in awe at our Wayne. Among the achievements his children will boast are that he is the famed Spectrum and Annual edi'or, besides being one of our most popular classmates. Wishes of success arc futile, for everyone is confident that Wayne will ultimately “do both himself and our class proud.” PARK ELLIOTT Joy himself! Since he’s a football hero, and a universal hero, lie needs no introduction. A man’s man and ladies’ man! But how many of you know he is an old fashioned chap? Well, he is. He is fond of old songs, especially of “Seeing Nellie Home and similar ones. Park refuses to reveal his future work, but it is supposed he will be a hosiery salesman—patronizing “Berger wares, of course. However, if our hopes for him materialize. Park will succeed in anything he undertakes.

26 OUR 1 9 2 9 ANNUAL EARL W. DAVIS “Sheik” This distinguished looking chap is Earl Davis. He needs no introduction to the girls. Earl came to us from Dewey School, and started in the aca- demic course, but later changed to the industrial, the change making him a member of the June ’29 class. Earl is surely some mathematical genius, espe- cially in algebra. Even Mr. Graber says so. Here’s luck to you, Earl. JAMES DEERY This strong, silent youth is an answer to a public speaking teacher’s prayer. You should hear him render Italian dialect, or see him act! Jimmy stoutly maintains he has no weakness for the fair sex. but time works many changes. Although he is not certain what his life- work will be, we know enough about him to be sure he will be a credit to June ’29. S. HARRY DUBLISKY Ahem! Attention, all ye physicers t Here we have the world’s most corpu- lent physicer. Harry excels in physics. If you don’t believe it. ask Mr. Hagy. Harry is a valuable asset of our class. He has attained the Honor Roll sev- eral times, and has a fine average in all his studies. Harry’s favorite pastime is receiving greetings from his friends. Harry wishes to be a pharmacist. There can be no doubt about his suc- cess.

28 OUR 1929 ANNUAL WALTER FELTON AUGUSTINE FRANK FENZA “Fenzy” Augustine is another of our indus- trial students. He came from Dewey School, a small, young man. After four years he is the same, only four years older, of course. Augustine chose the industrial course and has succeeded. After you leave C. H. S.. Augustine, no matter what path you follow, we are sure of your success. Yes. it is really true,” says Walter, future electrical engineering prodigy of Lehigh University, “that I have been prominent in several ways, including Debating Society, Spectrum Hoard, and History Club—to say nothing of dra- matics and the piano keys! My pet hobby is the pipe-organ, and my out- standing ambition is to make a success in life. In conclusion, allow me to state that I am generally considered a very charming and pleasing boy, if I do say so myself. And don't forget to mention that I HAVE been known to make the Honor Roll.” ALBERT FIRTH “Al” “Firthy” A seething mixture of volcanic passion. Smouldering quietly beneath a charm- ing smile; Keeping up with the latest fashions, Very neat, polite, and innocent of guile.
