EDMUND SCHEDLER Fall Creek, Wis. Staff tPhot. Edm Glee Club, Truck Driver. Puff! A flash. . . .fumes. . . .coughing . . . .choking. An explosion? No. Mr. Schedler, the classlphotographer, has just executed some of his poor, help- less victims. He puts in some more films and leisurely strolls along to shoot some more poor birds, who just happen to be hanging around. We don't want to give anyone the impression that he is a marble-hearted, merciless fiend, but he certainly doesn't care who suffers from the gaseous vapors he diffuses into the atmosphere after he attacks someone with that deadly, one- eyed black box of his. After all, he can make excellent pictures, but this photographic display rather gives one the idea that he is in love, than that he is such an enthusiast of snapping pictures of college yokefellows. By the way, his own map doesnt look so bad, does it now? l421 WILLIAM SCHWEDER Laporte, Ind. Glee Club Octette. Here is another sheik of the class. When it comes to facial beauty, sweet smiles, and winning ways, our llSwede takes the prize. In fact, he takes a pic- ture with such smooth and attractive lines that his above map was placed on display in the window of Swansonls Studio for several weeks. He vehe- mently declares he is immune to all the arrows of Cupid. This blond boy is also a heavy smoker. Day by day in every way he trys to think up a hard- luck story that will enable him to sponge a cigarette. But to get down to brass tacks, HSwedeH is noted for his musical ability. ,If you hear some sweet melody floating on the night air, investigation will reveal our petite t'Swede pommeling a poor, long-sutf- ering piano in the attempt to repro- duce Home Sweet Home. Really, when he inflicts punishment on his punching-bag he is liable to show more consideration for the bouncing leather than he does for the stubborn ivory.

ERNST MENNICKE Tay10r Ridge, 111. Sanhedrin, Germania. i Rub your eyes! A war? No, just a smokescreen cleverly laid by uTail- lefer to prevent being disturbed in his reading. He hears us, lays aside his Illinois corn-cob, and the air soon clears. Now we first see the second outpost of Deutsch of our class. Na- turally he is an incurable addict to sau- erkraut and to everything that smacks of German. Besides showing us how a Primaner should gesticulate with vim and vigor, he occasionally makes an at- tempt at joking. HTaillefer never laughs, not because he isn't often in that mood, but because his laughing consists in a loud'chuckling. In a more serious vein, we note Ernst to be a quite, persevering young man, not mathematically inclined.-Success to you, 01' topper! Don't go slipping on too many banana peels that may be in your.way, ,cause you know yourself it's a bad thing to have your feet where your head ought to be. WILLIAM RIEGELMANN Racine, Wi's. Braves, Glee Club, Ocetette. Biif! Bam! Zipp! Ouch! Flocks of students scurrying down the corridor to room 38. Everybody is stretching his neck, standing on tiptoes, gawking with bulging blinkers. Biff! Barn! Zam! What is the matter? Don't worry; it is only Billi, our coming Gene Tunney, who inhis pugilistic mood is hammere ing the walls and pomrneling the chairs with his sledge-hamrner lists, or per- haps he is only boxing with his sha- dow. After an hour of such belliger- ent effervescence HBiyll 'sprawls down into his chair, a champion triumphant. In this slouchy, outlandish position, he leers at one from under a shaggy mop of disheveled hair in such a thuggish manner that one feels like quietly leav- ing him alone to ponder over his war- riorhood. Just the same, come and shake hands with a real, big-hearted, boyish chap. And say! When he comes yodeling down the hall ' you would think he was a rare Edelweiss from the snowy Alpine heights. Any- how, he is a precious part of the class.

LUTHER STREUFERT Chicago, Ill. Glee Club, Librarian. This is our short, stodgy classmate. Generally he is silent and reserved, but never without a smile. His walk is one that immediately attracts attention for such a little guy as our HKater. Each footfall is followed by a. deep, booming reverberation, almost suggest- ing the coming of an earthquake. Whenever the pictures in the rooms of the dormitory begin to 'shake and shat- ter, it is at once evident that HKat'er is restless and is trying to wear off some more of his stature. His voice is low and resonant, and full of a quiet feeling which it unconsciously betrays as he smoothly glides from one topic to another; that is, if he happens to be in a conversational mood. In order to preserve his sweet smile, Katz pays frequent visits to ice cream par- lors. That is not the greatest of his attainments. He is also recognized as a rather collegiate fellow, because he flashes brilliant and' blinding jazz- bows, smart clothes, and hot socks. E431 FREDERICK TREICHEL Sheboygan, Wis. Staff tHumor EdJ, Courier tMailing StafD, Glee Club. Octettel There are optimists and optimists. H'Trixy is one of the rosiest type. He is always sliding down rainbows, lying on violets, sniiiing primroses, visioning purple-hued and pink-fiushed cumuli. He is generally seen fiat on his back on the velvety college lawns dreaming away his hours of leisure. The'song of the bluebird gives him soulful throbs and thrills. O my!! In class itTrixy wants to be a very good boy so he invariably chooses a frontvseat. That doesn't persuppose that he is always very quiet during class sessions, for now and then a nervous scufiiing of feet from his direction grates on the nerves of his classmates so that they howl at him most vociferously. Now and then he is just a little serious. .'?! That may be a direct result of down- right diligence or some other malady, or it may be just plain soberness. Anyway, he's a sporty chap.
