Harry is always there with the answer whether the subject be geometry, French, or the atomic bomb. With his appeahng accent acquired dur- ing his boyhood in Switzerland, Harry could be a killer with the feminine element, but so far, formulae and test tubes are much more in- triguing (?) to him. He intends to become an engineer, and we know he ' ll reach the top. RICHARD P.

WILLIAM J. YSKAlXIP Bill 50 JEFFERSON PLACE TOTOWA BOROUGH Class President (10); Class Student Council Representative CIO); Editor-in-Chief of Crier (11-12); Yearbook Associate Editor (12); Chorus (12). Master at wit and whimsy, this lad ' s ersatilitv and varied abilities enable him to adapt himself to any situation with apparent ease. We all look to Bill for a characteristically Yskampish com- ment and criticism of run-of-the-mill opinions and hum-drum attitudes. Bill ' s humorous out- look has greatly enhanced his popularity, but has in no way detracted from his intelligent handlino of the more serious matters of life. 21
