Sal we all know youll do well in whatever you do Robert Ferguson Marysville, Kansas Chorus Black Club Tennis Team Bob was one of our post-graduates this year. He was one of those easy going, easy to get along with sort of fellows. although he was among the silent few. Bob was a hard worker and cooperated with everyone: he had a deep and true desire to be helpful, and he was a perfect gentleman at all times. He excelled in music, and had a good substantial bass voice. He performed, to the enioyment of the entire student body, at many musical recitals. Bob seemed a real stumper to the Keyhole this year but maybe thats lust because he had a secret love elsewhere Outstanding in table tennis Bob was number one on the boys team Also he was a good tennis player His good sportsmanship will be a valuable asset in the future and we know hell be liked and respected wherever he goes 1 1 ' 1 1 1 1 1 . 1 . . . 11 11 . 11 . . 11 . . . 1 . . 11 . . 11 . - 11 1 1, . . . , . 11 11 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 . . 1 , . 1

Jim Giesler Glen Ellyn, Illinois Black Club Basketball Football Track Although lim was a late-comer to our class. he soon established himself as one of the boys . Our ladies' man arrived every moming in cr green Ford which sounded like a Mac truck. Iim's clever remarks and crazy antics kept everyone in school in stitches through- out the year. He proved to be a great asset to both the football and basketball teams. We won't soon forget Iim's lazy walk up the basketball court as he slowly dribbled the ball. Midge plans to attend the University of Colorado next year. We'll miss you, lim. 5535 James Hall Elgin Illinois President of E Club Assistant Editor Hilltop Masque and Gavel Chapte Quill and Scroll Creative Writing Club Homecoming King Musart vice president r Star Merit Status Orange Club Our Town Swimming Football Tennis Team Six long years ago Iim first became acquainted with EA Ever since he started Iim was considered one of the best dressed men on campus After six years as a day student Iimmy became a boarder during his senior year But before the year was over he was again a day student Inn showed his terrific athletic ability in football and swimming He also contributed to the class production of Our Town as George Gibbs lim was another member of the hot rod clan He says that atter building a rod he feels as if he has accom phshed something and is a little sorry that the work ls completed At the end of the year lim was the proud owner of a customized Mercury convertible lim plans on attending Principia and later Illinois Tech maiormg in engineering Best of luck to a swell GUY 1 . ., .. . ., .. . ,V . f I ' ,r,, f ' A 'hy if I 137.
