,-• MLLIAi I NICKEL Chill Dunellen, N. Dunellen High School Here is one man who won ' t have to hire a car- penter to build for him. Bill was easil) ' the handi- est man with tools in the class. Although Nick ' s life was somewhat veiled with mystery, rumors have it, that he even got around in that fortress of Doylestown and points east of it. What do you say, knew his farming and cows, (although he seldom saw them over the weekend). In addition, he had a s olid grip on Mr. Cook ' s leg, for which he compensated by letting the shop man tug on his pedal extremities. Long will it ring inourclassrooms — Doyouknow,that Nickel made a hog shelter in thirteen minutes, chicken .shelter in five minutes, foundation to the Administration Building in two hours. If you can do the same — you shall get a three. Malicious tongues have it, that Chin ' ' always quit when he had the aces flying his way. Nick always managed to look out for himself and we are sure that his mighty chin will help him plow his way to success. I Brooklvn, N. Y, AL ORNER ■■Fats Newtown High School No one could ever predict that that slightly obese, jovial zoot-suiter who lagged into our gates would be a future football player — yet, that is the way things turned out. He must have been quite indispensible, for everybody noticed his absence before and after Sabbath. Yet, it seems that his poultry work did not suffer too much under those cruel interrup- tions. Al can hold his own with the best of poultrymen. Fatsy really managed to stick to one woman, at a time, when he made his mind up; and the annals of history of the N.F.S. will proudly show this exception to our law of ethics. Cards and headwaiting were his only vices. Shmaltzy was proud of the first one; the second vice made him feel so ashamed that he was seldom caught at it. Drive, Mr. Samuels says. Drive,- says Shmaltzy, our steadiest Romeo, in love, business, and all his future life.

KURT LOSER Buds New York, N. Y. Kaiser Friedrich Gymnasium When we look back on this year ' s successful football season, some of the credit will have to be given to the manager, who not only wrestled with the dummies and equipment, but who also eflTi- ciently performed the thankless task of making sure that the Varsity was tucked in on time. Kurt, who lived (conveniently) next door to the cigarette concession, kept himself broke, buying white sticks, and it is said that if the butts were laid end to end they would reach from Farm School to Hanoverton, Ohio. Usually quiet and unassuming, he could at times be seen searching the dining hall for Mutts, who had failed to respond to the gentle ministrations of the call boy, and had not gone to details. The oversight was quickly corrected. Kurt takes his dairying seriously, and has a genuine interest in his cows. We feel sure that he will still be an efficient manager when he takes his place on the farm. s»s»ss ««s;«! »e«« « « ««sv «s ©©« MEN= OF THE JOHX R. iMOLLICK Philadelphia, Pa. Northeast High School Although by no means the biggest, John is the muscle man of our class. On those rare occasions when he was assigned a job which was not the hardest to be had, John could be heard offering to switch assignments with those of us who do not possess such bulging biceps. Muscles idea of a vacation is to go to his Grand- father ' s farm in Jersey and put in a sixteen hour day pulling a plow, or some other gentle form of exertion. One of our mainstays in interclass football, and always willing to lend a hand in other class enter- prises, John, Let me get a word in edgewise, is rumored to have put more mileage on our trucks than the rest of the school combined. His temperament could best be described as, With malice towards none, quiet, steady, and efficient. He has earned for himself an enviable reputation, and we will long remember him as a good man to have behind the wheel. N ?se«««=©© ««ssss««««« ©«« i;sS5« =SOIL Y

HARRY PAUL Adysogynist Atlantic City, X. J. Atlantic City H. S. Nothing ever happened anywhere to any one that escaped Blabber ' s and thus everybody else ' s attention. His room was a refuge for all scav- engers and other scum of the earth (classmates). Flatfoot had his heart and sole in class activities and didn ' t even permit his somewhat corpulent figure to prevent him from playmg ball. Harry ' s sarcastic nature and a couple of in- herited joke books made him the I. S. Cobb of the N.F.S. and the persistent editors made him write the humor and personalities for the Gleaner and Yearbook. Some of his victims claim his eloquence stops only when he sees a she, but he is just waiting for the right one (so he says). While Harry wasn ' t too bad a Hort. slave, his destiny is to oust J. L. Lewis from the Farm organizing business. P. S. (Strictly deadline stuff.) Harrv found her. « © ©«;5««45©« ©©« «4»«5e4»©« «« MEN= OF THE MURRAY RESXIK ■■Res X. Y. De Witt Clinton H. S. Possessed of a voice which has led many of us to believe that he is the inventor of a portable amplifying system, Res has gone straight ahead in proving that his heart Is as big as his voice. Besides his long list of class activities, Murray was one of those who were most responsible for making the plans of our recreation room a reality, and if it weren ' t for his typing, we would have had neither this Yearbook nor the Gleaner. In his senior year a knee injury caused him to make many visits to the hospital in Philly, and we believe that his ailment changed to one of the heart (angina amoris) due to the influence of one of the nurses. In the daily Poultry Meeting, Murray ' s vocal exercises made student and faculty alike, tremble before his spirited criticisms. A letter man in baseba ll, and an excellent Poultryman, Res has proven beyond a doubt that all through life, he will be VARSITY. SOIL i« «««a €Kee«« «=e ©«««?«4?«te €»s«=
