If M28 HORACE JORDAN Horace Jordan is one of the outstanding members of our class. Since he came to Parker in his freshman year he has made a fine success. He has an excellent brain and a charming personality. Horace is rather inclined to be very serious, and when he undertakes a task, he goes about it in his own silent and persevering way. In his junior year he won the Harvard Classic, which goes to the boy with the highest scholastic achievement. He is captain of this year's Extemporaneous Speaking team, and he has very capably served a term as judge. Horace was made president of our class this vear, and has filled this office very ably. .R ROBERT JORDAN Bob is one of a small group of nuts on radio and science. His amount of informa- tion on this subject is really astounding. He is an exceptional student being very con- scientious about his work. He has been an outstanding member of the Extemporaneous Speaking team for several years. He has many friends as was proved by his being elected vice-president of the class and judge for the spring term. The halls have been run verv ably under his leadership during the full school year. Because of his brilliant mind, amiability, and conscientiousness we are sure that he will win many honors in college. SEYMOUR KALOM Lefty,' is one of the class's most versatile members. Question the athletic minded why Lefty is a valuable member of the school. Because he is one of our star football, basketball, and baseball players,', they an- swer. Inquire of a Weekly member why Seymour is worth knowing. Because he is such a really fine editor of the Weekly, comes the prompt reply. Anyone of the faculty or student body could be asked why Parker profits by having Seymour as a member and the immediate response would be, because he puts every bit of effort into everything he attempts to do. To sum him up in one sentence: He can be de- termined, yet compromising, stubborn yet congenialg is always forgiving, unconscious of his own virtues, and competent whether on the dance floor, on the gym floor, or in the class room. He is bound to carve a place for himself in the hearts of any he associates with. -.sm ,

ROBERT FOSTER Bob is the good-looking, dark-haired boy of the senior class. He commands everyone's attention when he enters the room. He is the voice of the class. Bob belongs to the Extemporaneous Speaking team, where he holds high honors. If one gets into any kind of discussion with him, one might just as well give up, for Bob surely can hold his own. His excellent work in The Boor, one of the senior class plays, shows his dramatic ability. Bob is going to Harvard to study law. Good luck to you, Bob, although we all know you'll lay the law down in great style. JANE FREESE Jane has been an invaluable member of Parker, being very beautifully poised, lend- i-ng her lovely voice to countless Forums, and doing her bit to make things run smart- ly. She is not superficial, for she can always get high grades and she may be relied upon to give a clear, concise, and fair criticism of any book she may read. Those who are fortunate enough to know Jane more in- timately are acquainted with her calm, so- phisticated, yet serene personality, and ever apparent charm. . X .A qw k Yak.

ROBERTIHAGEY is 3 Ever since about fourth grade, or ever since we were old enough to take part in athletics, Bob Hagey has been one of our great all-round athletes-a southpaw, hold- ing letters in football and basketball, tennis, and golf. In his athletic career at Parker he has played halfback in football and center in basketball. But he is probably greatest on the golf links, where to beat him one has to be good. Besides being an athlete the boy always has been one of our leaders. In his junior year he was class president, and it was in this ofhce that he directed a very success- ful Junior Prom. In addition to being an athlete and a leader, Bob has a personality which is sure to wi-n him friends and more feminine admirers at whatever college he chooses. -A if I 1 -gi , IND m ' f I I 'Fish I BIWAW I I -. --.:: I f Eh ,1 3 Fuses., Q ..

JOHN KANAGY If you have failed to make John's ac- quaintance you have lost the opportunity of knowing one of the most amiable and friendly people that Parker has ever seen. He is a sincere and true friend and always willing to help. Although he doesn't get the best marks of the class, he works harder than most people. His work on the Weekly has always been very commendable. His balanced combination of wit and seriousness, his heroic unselfishness, and his congeniality will long be esteemed by all of us. HELEN LOUISE KRAUSS Helen Krauss is a perfect example of the old adage to the effect that the best goods come in small packages. In her case the goods are a truly vivacious personality, a perpetual source of good, wholesome com- mon sense, a great fondness for little chil- dren, and an unfailing clearness of judgment extremely gratifying to friends in doubt. In short she is worth knowing well-the sort of girl Whose friendship will prove to be an asset to anyone. ,P A! -fi JEANNE LEVY If you want someone upon whom you can always depend, someone to cheer you up and make you laugh-Jeanne is the girl. She is an excellent student, though never asserting herself u-nless called upon. Her fine work as the Queen in The Queen's Enemies proves to us that she has a fine basis for her chief interest, dramatics, in which she will major at Sarah Lawrence. Jeanne has been outstanding among the senior girls for her athletic ability. In hockey, basketball, and baseball she has always been a great asset to her team. Jeanne,s fine sense of humour and her readiness to help have made her a person whom we shall long remember. I 13' ,' 'V bfi llll I fs, ,, T '- X, K ty lliil., 1.. q-.
