EDWARD FRANCIS SCHROEDER W'hat'd ja say Eddie Secretary and Treasurer of Dominoes Club, '40, Sportsman Club, '41, Dancing IClub, '42, Soccer, '42, Basketball, '39, '40, '41, '42, Business Manager Class, '42. From court and field come grunts and groans, players go down but one stays up. That is our Ed Schroeder taking the bumps and bruises and giving them right back. An allfround athlete is what you'd call him, inter- ested in every sport. Soccer, baseball, basket' ball, football, all have been mastered by Ed. When there are tickets to be sold, Eddie is right there to get his share, and you can be sure he will not let you down by selling only a few or none at allAand getting rid of a box of Senior candy is elementary. Ed isn't a slouch when it comes to the fairer sex either. We don't know who his lavorite is, but we feel sure there is someone who has found her way into his heartgthat is if all of those letters from Susquehanna mean anything. When it comes time for Ed to go out in the world, the world will be waiting and will give Eddie the break he deserves. VIRGINIA SCI-IUMACHER Oh Yeah! Gin Assistant Girls' Basketball Manager '40, '41g Girls' Basketball Manager, '41, '42, Casts of Professor, How Could You '40. That Crazy Smith Family '41, The Curse of the Crystal Ball '42g Dancing '41, '42. Would you like to meet the glamour girl of the Senior Class? Then we will introduce you to Virginia. Her blonde tresses have cap- tured many a heart. At present, Gin is rather up a tree as to which of her captives she likes best. Well, they're all 0. K. So let your heart be judge. Gin's only unglamorous trait is gig' gling, but glamorous or not, it wouldn't be Gin if she couldn't giggle. She did her bit for sports by efficiently managing the Girls' Basketball team. Willingly taking part in all our plays showed Virginiais cooperative spirit and also her ability as an actress. Gin has one failing, a quick temper, but she cools off just as quickly as she becomes angry so we can forgive her. After graduation, Gin expects to become a dietitian. Here's hoping you can remember all those vitamins. - - , s as his fa ea seg xx 2 EE 1 tk V . x AQEH ,Wa ,,,. A 5 ,gl If .2 'iii' - ea ', ' 1 Q5 ' e , .-' i--LF ff , ,.::- gg ,:-,--- :ai f A ., tl ,.

Here we have a classmate that has an ovrrvfloxv of ambition. ln fact he has so much energy and pep that he works both day and night. During the day he comes to school, and during a part of the night he works at Wyanfs Radio Store. lt's the night work that Bill enjoys. Mooney hasnlt had any time for the wo- men regardless of how they have tried to en- tire him. Outwardly, he hasn't paid much at' tcntxon to them, but we have an inkling that when the time comes to jive , Bill will he ou: there with a babe in his arms. This fellows hohhy is taking pictures, the candid kind. That's the part we don't like. lle's taken some pictures of us at times that we didn't want our picture taken, and most of all we were not expecting them to be taken. Bill has been a great help to our Class hy helping with the stage work of our plays. We'x'e just left everything to him and it's been done. Bill has some plans about heing a me' rhanicz and if he works in the future as he has worked at Wy:1iit's, no joh will he too grC:lL for Bil1. CHARLES PFLANZ Hello Sweetheart Charlie Track, '39, '40, Cast of Professor, How 'Could You? '40, Member A. A., Sports- man Club, '41, '42. Here is one o'f those rarely found fellows who is an asset to any group in which he might happen to be. Charlie is a scholar, gentleman, comedian, and sportsman all in one. Whether it he arguing the war situa' tion with Mr. Clark or Ivlr. Krause, flattering a girl, telling a joke, running the half mile, or pursuing wild game, he can accomplish any task he undertakes with skill. Besides girls, Charlie also 'flatters car engines, For proof of this, watch him coax his Stuclehaker into hauling the gang home any noon. 'Charlie tends to he like his grandfather, Orin, a wellfknown and well-liked person. He takes a good bit of kidding, hut his temper seldom gets out of control. Acting is another of uCharlie's accom' plishments. Who can forget him as Butcher Boy Bean the pugilist of Professor, How Could You? Those scenes still hring a chuck' le to our lips. 'Charlie's amhition is to hecome a flyer. May there always he an unlimited ceiling 'for yon, Charlie. gg M, .aku J .,,, ...... xX ww 6 i 1 -- A f' A s 'Qt ......- ffgl A, 'YS fi 1 ff?

CLEMENT C. SLOCUM, JR. Just a minute Clem Dalton High School Band, '39, '40, Glee Club, '39, Matamoras High School Band, '40, '41, '42, Basketball, '40, '41, '42, Casts of The Curse of the Crystal Ball,' 41, That Crazy Smith Family, '41, A. A. Member, Dancing Club, '41, '42. With the toot, toot of a whistle, we in' troduce Clem QLoverj Slocum, Dalton High Scl1ool's gift to the girls of Matamoras High School. A whistle is a 'fair instrument to use as an introduction to this young fellow, for Clem is by no means slow, and he's in on everything. He plays a trumpet in the High School Band, is on the varsity basketball team, and has shown his dramatic ability in That Crazy Smith Family and The Curse of the Crystal Ball. We frequently UQ see Clem spinning along in the car with the wheels turned to- ward a road known to the people of Mata' nioras as Heater's Hill. If at any time you need information about the state of Virginia Qlvlortonj just ask Clem. After graduation, Clem is leaving Mata, moras, but he is leaving physically only, for his heart belongs to M. H. S.-mostly CootsI Because we know a good sport goes welll anywhere, we know that you will find as many friends in Ithaca as you have 'found here, Clcm. JOHN J. STRUNK uHis7 GtGr0vsv Casts of Professor, How Could You '40, The Curse of the Crystal Ball '41, Soc- cer, '39, '40, Captain, '41, Assistant Man- ager, Year Book, Vice President, '38, '39, '41, President, '40. The crowd is tense as a bit of nip and play takes place on the Soccer field. Then Captain Strunk works toward the ball, gives it a skillful kick, and-a goal for Mata' moras! johnny is a valuable Soccer player, as well as a valuable member of our class. A handsome fellow with good manners and an admirable taste in clothes, Grover, as he is sometimes called, is pleasing to the fair sex. He has always picked his girls from Port Jervis, but recently we learned that a certain Senior girl holds a place in his heart, Although the teachers think that he is slightly lazy when it comes to homework, john has proved that he is just the opposite in class activities by taking the leading part in 'two plays and selling more than his share of ads for our yearbook. He also took his work in various offices seriously enough to do a good job. Johnny has expresed a desire to be of service to Uncle Sam after graduation. Vifell, one of his ancestors was an officer on Ad' tuck miral Nelson's ship so we think that johnny will also be valuable to his country.
