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-

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. Al ' s domestic misfortune was to some degree counterbalanced by his notable class work. 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.

Suave gentleman of the Southland, romantic youth of a romantic land, haunt of beautiful women and small-town slicks. As Bruno ' s radiant personality ha.s completely won us so has it earned him a place in Philadelphia society, where he is a welcome guest in many homes. His ability has not been confined to divan duty alone, for Bruno has for three years commanded our admiration for his brilliant athletic record. Playing clean, wholesome, aggressive football Ely filled either guard or tackle with great skill. ■4 20 Ir-

In our Fresh- man year he always forecasted raids whether or not they materialized. Thus he endeared himself to his classmates. With the advent of his Junior year ' Hookey joined the social elite of Doylestown, and we were glad to be so well represented.

JrxiOR Y ' e.vr: Varsity Football Squad; Class Football. Senior Year: eterinary Society. Fats hails from Gloversville. N. Y ' ., which has provided Farm School with many past notables, and we believe Fats will eventually correlate these precedents. Manny ' s light heart has tended to preserve his cherubic countenance, and he is troubled by nothing more serious than the source of his cigarette butts. . mong Fats noteworthy achievements was his prolonged sojourn in the Jewish Hospital where he underwent a most profitable appendictum of three months duration. Manny returned to us. however, hail and hearty, an.xious to till the fertile fields of Farm Xo. 3. Here Fats spent many delightful days growing the things he loved, bearing good will to all and malice to none. ■4 22 1=-
