Behold the leader of our great basketball team! From the very beginning, there was no child like Lou (even his mother said so). Rattles and Grimm ' s Fairy Tales never interested him. He teethed on a whistle, and amused himself by looking at the ])iotures in the Rules Book, His interest in basketball has never Miice lagged. If the game continues to produce men of his caliber, 1 i.isketball is going to become mighty popular, Lou ' s specialty is ■ l.iirying. and we predict his success in this vocation. JOSEPH SILVERBERG Troubador Age 20 Floriculture Central High School Philadelphia, Pa, was his nature to blossom into song, as it is a tree ' s to leaf itself in April. — Ale.x Smith.

Trouby. the connoisseur of the fine arts — the arts of court- ship, music, and nickel squeezing. It must have been the Spanish blood in him. for Spain is noted for its romance, as well as for its temper. He has endeared himself in our hearts (and many, many, many maidens) with his golden voice and the jet black of his mustachio. The emotional quiver in his voice must have been caused by a broken heart, or probably lumbago, Joe, your genius for beauty, both feminine and floral, will set you high in the world. GEORGE P, SMITH Smythc Age 21 Landscape .Ashland School Scranton, Pa. The fruit derived from labor is the s ' iccetest of all pleasures. — Anon. .Activities: Class President, 1 : Banquet Committee, 1; Forestry Club, 1, 2, 3; Gift Committee, 1, 2, 3; Class Track, 1; Prom Committee, 2: Interdorm Sports, 1, 2. George entered our midst, serious of purpose, a gentleman, and above all. with genuine friendship for all. This rare combination of qualities has been enhanced by his three years at the school. Your appreciation of natural beauty and thoroughness in your work should make you outstanding in your endeavors. 30

Nigs is conxiiiced that he was not created to pore over books, but to get as much pleasure out of life as he possible can. At some future dale (buried in the ha- ' v years of tomorrow) he intends to settle down to hard work. Walter loves a good joke, appreciates some of t he most serious anecdotes, and really picks up an educa- tion outside of school hours. He is a live wire, and will surely get ahead. MILTON liOSEXZWEIG Ros Age 23 ■ ' F 1 OULTKV Boys ' High School Astoria, L. I. ' ' The soft dropping of rain pie ' ces the hard ma ' ble. Little st ' okes fell g ' eat oaks. — Franklin.

A. Broad, 3; S. S. A. Comntittee, 3; Manager of N ' arsily Football, 3. About Rosy- they may say bigger m°n, but never better men. In the capacity of football manager, his e ' ficiency was a cog in the machine that spelled an undefeited season. His talents were also directed into the contrasting fields of chick- raising and Gleaner E.vchange Editor. It will be a lucky hen tha t will be intrusted to his care. MORRIS SEIDMAX Whiley Age 21 PillLTRV Southern High School Philadelphia, Pa, .-1 man born with talent which he is meant to use, finds his greatest happiness in using it. — Goethe Activities: Band, 1, 2, 3; Poultry Club, 1, 2, 3; Gleaner ? ta . 2, 3; Class Boxing, Baseball, and Wrestling, 1, 2; Class Football, 1, 2; Banquet Committee, 1; Student Council, 2; Ye. rbook Staff. 3; Ring, Pin and Pennant Committee, 2. Through these portals entered a quiet, fair-haired chap. ith the months, his individual qualities became clearly seen, and lo! and behold! Whitey became centered in the midst of campus life. By his own eflorts, he has developed from a rookie to an outstanding cornetist, aiding in the success of the orchestra and the student dances. Good Luck. Whitey . There ' s no doubt about your suc cess in the field you have chosen.

1932 CLASS RECORD OF THE NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL MARTIN SOLOMONOWITZ Sol Aci; 20 !• Poultry Plainfield High School (N. J.) Brooklyn, N. Y. Delibfralf with caution, but act with decision, and yield with graciousness or pose unth firmness. — Colton. ACTIVITJE!:: Interdorm Sports, 1, 2, 3; Poultry Club, I, 2, 3; Literary Society, 1; Horticulture Club, 2, 3 (Treasurer, 3); Vice-President of Poultry Club, 3; A. A. Hoard, 3; Manager of Basketball (N ' arsity), 3; Assistant Manager of Varsity Basketball, 2; VWestling, 2; Dining Room Committee, 3; Class Track, 1; Manager of Class Basketball, 1. For a lover of fun and merriment, it would be hard to find Sol ' s equal. When he first came to the school, he proved no exception to the rule that plumpness means joviality. The avoir- dupois is now gone, but the joviality remains. Many dull moments have been enlightened by his timely and opportune jokes. His painstaking efforts in connection with his project work have called our attention to his capabilities in this line, and have won the respect of all who know him. Perhaps the Poultry industry has been waiting for such a one to elevate it to higher levels. If ability and character are the re(|uirements for success, then Sol is a made man at the start. MORRIS SOOPPER Moish Agk 20 Horticulture Overbrook High School Philadelphia, Pa. Knowledge once gained casts a light beyond its own intermediate boundaries. — Tydall. Activities: Forestry Club, 1, 2; Interdorm Sports, 1, 2, 3; Horticulture Club, 2, 3; Class Football, 2; Poultry Club, 2, 3; Gleaner Staff, 2, 3; Ye. rbook Staff, 3; Varsity Foot- ball Squad, 2. Moish was indeed different. Combine statistical basebalb research in Herpetology, a bit of Greek, and a dash of irresponsi- bility, and what have you? Soopper, of course. Lest we forget, his passion for the elusive Solanum Tuberosum was only rivalled by the fine art of ditch digging. May we wish you luck. Moish ? and wherever your esthetic depths are understood, there will you find happiness. WALTER SPILLER II ' u7 Age 21 F Dairy Simon Gratz High School Philadelphia, I ' .i Simplicity of all things is the hardest to be copied. — Steele. Activities: Varsity Baseball, , 2, 3; Varsity Club, 2, 3; Studini Council, 2 (Vice-President of Council, 3); Student Senate, 2; Poultry Club, L 2, 3: Dairy Club, 2, 3; Prom Com- mittee, 2; Captain of Class Baseball, 1; Interdorm Sports, 1, 2. Walt made his mark as a quiet and thorough student. always making friends as he went along. In his work he was sincere and we often wonder how the Dairy Department would have done without him. When not studying or working he could be found batting a baseball around the diamond, a habit which made him famous as the best hitter ever to don a Farm School uniform. We know that he will be missed, but hope he won ' t forget us. 31
