Q Hi' ME' MJ Lid GEORGE H. YEOMAN George Peekskill Military Academy Council K. D. C. 43 Debating Society 4. George came to us from Peekskill Mili- tary Academy, and in recognition of his military knowledge, w,as made private in Com-pany E. He is one of the most pleas- ant fellows in the class, and his lofty brow does not seem made to bear a frown. Even when late for morning recitations, he greets Brother with a smile. George has ever amused us with his bubbling humor, and brightened us with his merry smile. He possesses that priceless quality of making friends and holding them. He is known as the Rip Van Winkle of the class His hobby is dancing. Yet time spent on the waxed floor serves, not to dim his flame for study. Nature has endowed him with no mean degree of good looks. But withal, George is a good student and a bright scholar. We predict a. happy and f successful future for him. Thus wisely careless, innocently gay, Cheerful he played. Page fifty-two 'f it ii R V W i i itat vel 55311511 mi Leif g, 9 ZQ Q1 tar an H321 ea rg

tewiiiiieiiiifiiii misty it Myers is Us UifiU El1ills+iLt+vL4t.i+sF+1i CHARLES J. VOGEL WILLIAM A. WALKER Charlie St. Gabrie1's Billg Shortyg Tubby St. Rita's School K, IJ, C, Varsity Football 4. Clap hands, here comes Charlie. Four years ago our class was joined by the Teu- tonic Adonis, Charlie Vogel. After four years, he is still with us and only slightly changed. We said slightly. Yes, but Charlie has changed merely to adopt the new. He does the Charleston. Even in class his feet can't resist the invitation to give an exhibition. In the classroom, the locker room, the gym, or the laboratory, our friend can step with equal pep. He never worries: just forgets his troubles in the intricacies of the latest step. Natural- ly the young ladies are fond 'of him and we are delighted to say this fondness is reeiprocated. Charlie has besides quite some literary ability, He has served as a reporter for our class for two years and we can say that he has made our section one of the most attractive and interesting in every number of the Record. Despite what the future holds in store for him. I'm sure it must be justly said, His feet are useful as his licadu. VVho is to be more cherished than a pleasant and loyal comrade, a true and sympathetic friend? That is why we hold Bill so dear. A generous and trusting na- tureg a jovial dispositioug a magnetic per- sonalityg that is Bill all over. Tubby, is the kind of a fellow whom you cau't help but like. He is not related gto' Mickey Walker, but he will give him a good battle for his namxe, His vibrant spirits find out- let on the football field and behind the catcher's mask. Bill is just a goodnatur- ed, ,easy going fellow, whom we are go- ing to miss. He never makes much noise, but something is lacking when he is not present. Despite his rotundity, the bounc- ing lad pictured above can amble about the football field with the agility and speed of Grange. Bill personifies a generous heart, a calm force, and a determlined character. Page fifty-one sith 9 2. e, tsn13i.ieigml
