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.

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.

ELMER VOLKMANN Chicago, Ill... . Staff tSport EcU, Glee Club tPresJ, Sports Reporter, Octette, Sanhedrin, Librarian,f Ih- vitation Committee. , V V 5?;- . HVic, a past master in the art of ty- ing an elusive knot in a. bow-tie, is titled in the annals of our class as the HSheik. Immaculate in attire and usually well prepared, he takes his ac- customed seat in the class room, which, not by chance, is behind a pair of husky shoulders, and enjoys himself immensely while someone else is be- ing bombarded with questions. As president of the Glee Club he ardently persists in demonstrating the ability of the singers by warbling the latest hits to himself in his deepest and most son- orous bass. However, should you wish to speak to him during study period, you will find him safely entrenched behind an enormous fortification of history books. Let us giVe you some inside information: Should you ever have a. dispute with him, please do not consent to settle it on the bowling al- ley, lest you find yourself badly beaten before the fifth frame has been com- pleted. 1++1 ROBERT WOLFF Cambridge, Wis. Athletic Board, Grounds Inspector, Pres. of Prima Club. Mr. Wolff. Donlt run. It is only HBob.H He is harmless, though at times he is somewhat peevish. If his faults were legion, we should still love our wild andlwoolly l'Bob. Without him our class would be without an import- ant part of its varied make-up. Just walk down the corridor of the second floor of the Wunder Dorm, and you will invariably see huge, contorted bel- ches of smoke issuing forth from the endmost room. It is almost impossible to enter without being nearly asphixi- ated by the twisted clouds of sweet- smelling smoke. The source of all this fumigation is to be found in the cor- ner where HBob is easefully lounging in his chair, puffing away peacefully at the stump of a stogy. He loves to strut tyrannically up and down the halls and bellow at terrified Freshmen, whereas in class he declaims in a voice that is scarcely audible.
