1932 CLASS RECORD OF THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL NATiLW M; NLW -Nate Agk 1 ) F lloRTUn.Tl ' RE Hot Springs ITiuli School Hot Springs. Ark. The secret of success in life, is for a man to be ready for his oppor- tunity when it comes. — Disraeli. Activities: Varsity Football Squad, 1, 2, 3; Horticulture Club. 1, 2; Treasurer, 3; Student Council, I, 2; Class Football ' 1, 2; Class Wrestling, 1; Junior Prom Coniniitlee, 2; Year- book Staff, 3. Here arises a tale, that is far stranger than any fiction. Our hero is a lad from the backwoods, handicapped by the customs, education, and unsophistication of the Ozarks, coming to this school to pave his way for the future. Nate has made good, and ranks high in all phases of his work. We will never forget Nate ' s determined spirit, his willingness to lend a helping hand, and his unforgetable bear hug. Today he is ready to lake his place in the world on an equal basis with anyone. JOSEPH NICHOLSON Nick Age 21 F D.MRV Pitman High School Pitman, N. J. High aim. forms high character, and great objects bring out great minds. — Edwards. Activities: X ' arsity Baseball, 1, 2, 3; Varsity Basketball, 1, 2, 3; X ' arsity Club, 1, 2, 3; Dairy Club, 2, 3, Class Basketball, 1, 2; Class Treasurer, 1, 2; Ye. rbook Staff, 3; Band Manager, 2, 3; Chairman, Dining Room Committee, 2; Student Council, 3. Nick , as he is known affectionately among his intimate friends, is about as generous, kind-hearted, and handsome a fellow- as you wish to know. As to conversation, it is not difficult to the great depths of his probing mind, for his desire for facts is insatiable. Nick has denied the rumor referring to an offer by the Arrow Collar in which he was asked to pose for their ads. However, he modestly admits that he just can ' t help being hand- some. The combination of pulchritude and dairying science is hard to beat, and should go a long way in this women ' s world. MARTIN PITT Marty Age 19 F D.MRY Gennantown High School Germantown, Pa. The earnestness of life is the only passport to the satisfaction of life. — Parker. Activities: Varsity Football Squad, 1, 2, 3; Class Football and Baseball. 1,2: Class Basketball and Bo.xing, 2; Interdorm Sports, 1, 2: Dairy Club, 2, 3; Poultry Club, 1, 2, 3; Gift Committee, 2, 3. Marty is one of our strong and silent men. His interest in work is real, although he does not go about broadcasting his ability. Mr. Samuels ne er could have put out a good football team without fellows like Pitt, who stayed on the squad for three years, taking punishment and liking it. Good Luck to you, Marty . Keep in touch with us.

Our football team must be good, because Stan always says that only one team compares with it. and that is Xotre Dame. His great weakness is writing letters to a certain little girl in Camden. Keep it up for a while. Stan. and vou ' ll win her vet. X.ATHAX MOSES Xate Age 19 Landsc.vpe Northeast High School Philadelphia. Pa.

You have before you. dear reader, a wonderful likeness of Max Xewman. in person. If you should wish to encase his god-like image in a platinum frame, we beg of you not to mulilate this valuable book by so doing. Simply mail your request to the gentleman ' s private secretary, and you will receive a handsome portrait of him. Just as there was only one George Washington, one Xapoleon, and one Abraham Lincoln, so there is only one Max Xewman. Despite the well-known fact that it is unneces- sary for great men to be amicable. Reds is the personification of agreeable service. He is a fine chap whom we all like, and we know he is bound to go high in the poultry game. kvV

Modest, quiet, but sure. Joe came to us from New York state. Scholastically. he ranks with the best, and when anyone wants to see wrestling of a professional caliber, just send for Raskin. His fame as an author of Billets Doux is unequalled in the annals of school history. Joe can write a letter for you that will easily fix up the most recent and serious quarrel with your sweetie, and do it with ease. Here ' s hopin ' the furniture business brings fame and fortune to your door, and that eventual poultry farm will appear. SYEN CHRISTIAN RAVEN Chris Age 21 F. RM ] I.

Activities: Class Baseball. 1, 2; Forestry Club. 1, 2; Interdorm Sports. 1. 2. 3; Class Track Team, 1, 2. Most people have a hobby, and Chris ' hobby is birds. He can tell you the difference between a Whistling Loo Loo bird and a Knock-kneed ingus without so much as winking an eye. One of man ' s objects in life is the pursuit of happiness, and if he can find happiness in birds he is indeed fortunate. Chris is a glutton for work, always putting in a full day and finishing up neatly. Considering that Ornithology and Agriculture go hand in hand, we are certain that Raven is on the right road to success. CHESTER ROGALSK I - Chel .Age 19 F F.xRM Machinery Camden High School Camden.

His serious purpose in life, however, is to become a successful farmer, and have broad acres of his own. in Poland. If he fails in this venture, he threatens to write Poetry. Here ' s luck in agriculture. Chet . 28
