The jolly boy with a wondrous mop of golden hair, yet, somehow predisposed to ill luck. So thoughtful and kindly are his actions, so ready are his hands to aid fellows in distress, that Al has become the refuge of all in need. Regardless of the nature of our ill. mental, moral or physical, we always sought Abies consolation and assistance.

With meritorious grades throughout the year Al foimd Senior sailing quite easy; and although we were long unaware of his class bearing, we finally found him to be one of us. ELY BERNH.

Playing clean, wholesome, aggressive football Ely filled either guard or tackle with great skill. ■4 20 Ir-

JiNioR Year: Class Baseball Football; Poultry Club. Senior Year: Orchestra; Poultry Club; Inter-Dorm Baseball. When our friend .Abie lamentably and boisterously hollered, Give the Common Herd a Chance , little did he realize that his utterance was to become the by-word of the large insurgent body of N. F. S. His worils rank second in quotability to Mr. Samuels ' time-honored phrase, It ' s not the money, it ' s the principle . .As is easily surmised Sam is a staunch defender of his rights — right or wrong. Sam ' s sensational claim to fame is his brilliant flare for music as inter- preted through blatant saxophonic strains. If we are to accept science ' s claims that music in the laying house increases egg production we need have no fear of Sam ' s future success. FREDERICK BH ' MER Anilij Gnmp Philadelphia, Pa.

This common- sensed Switzlander might well be called a jack of all trades and a master of many. Possessed of mechan- ical genius, and a thorough knowledge of intricate electrical contraptions, Fred solved many of bur mo.st enigmatic technical problems. His adept manipulation of the radio made it possible for us to enjoy many long study periods. During his regime as movie operator, Sunday evenings became a source of gratifying entertainment. Nothing was ever too insignificant or too intricate for Andy to tackle, and he gladly performed many invaluable services to his class and school. ■4 21 f-
