He, like many other boys, works after four and despises nearly all girls. Hobbie - reading books and sending for free booklets. Wally Starr - The tallest boy in XC.

He i s also the classroom joker and can make all of us industrious pupils laugh even though we work so hard. We wonder why Bill stopped wearing those cute little bow ties? Maybe too many people were calling him Fcankie. Bill is in the Reserve Air Force as you can tell by what he said in Geography Class. We quote In the future, it will be more fun driving an airplane than a car because it has automatic driving controls. Is that good or bad???

His hobby is listening to good murder stories on the radio. Bill Serytuk - Bill, known by the students as B , is XC’s sports rep who really enjoys soccer. Ever heard any queer noises in the room? Don ' t be alarmed! That’s, just Bill exercising his vocal chords. Ambition is to be a professor at Oxford, but we think he will end up shining oxfords , or wearing holes in them looking for a job.
