Any and all who have the good fortune of knowing uTwo-Buck Tim from Tim- l:uctu know the acquaintance is something they would not part with for galleons o' gold. This handsome, dashing, blond Appollo has become legendary among the more glorified sex. While eagerly continuing his pursuit from knowledge, ujoen has spent many happy hours on the Battle Field. He is now an authority on the subject. Not only this, folks, but each hillock, tree, cannon, or monument is near and dear to his heart. The managing of this year's football team was well taken care of, for Ralph was the popular as veil as efhcient manager, GEORGE FARNSLER HOCKER, JR. Football ' J34. i'Duck,' Mae West George e man with a jigure, And wot a Egger.

Any time you hear a melodious voice causing the ether quite some disturbanc ake a good look, it may be George defending some just cause in verbal com aybe just talking or yodeling. We must admit we like this product of the itle t f Bethlehem, and if we werenit to hear and see George here and there with ' dis ' hed and individual walk, truly we would miss him. BRUCE FRANKLIN HOCKMAN 'QHerc Houndl' 'iHockie,' Football '33-'34g Baseball i31-'32, '32-'33, '33-'34, Senate '33-,34. Here we have a gentleman who fspeaking in the vernacular of the fair onesj is just ucky for words. He is a veteran, having done four years. On the baseball diamond erc is an inspiration to the fellows who are not so skilled in the hurling sport. For se who are wondering, Herr is the short of Hercules. Anyone who has seen those erful shoulders in action or been in the iron grasp of this perfect specimen can well ap reciate the significance of that name. Ar night when bed time comes, great numbers of fellows troup to Herc's', room just to see him flex those mighty, rippling layers of me solid muscle. a heart-smasher this blond blizzard has no peer.

HAROLD RANDOLF HOCKMAN Poodle Stud Sound the trumpets, let them blare forth in a triumph peall Introducing, ladeez an, gennamen, that one and only uPoodle from Mingoville. We have here in captivity a living being not to be passed over lightly. Upon entering good ol' Stevens Hall there are times when one may hear the soft, entrancing fconsult M. Saundersj notes of a muted trumpet, wending their way throughout the portals of this majestic and stately building. The Battle Field guides have been known to attribute, as they passed by explaining the here's and there's to some tourists, these weird sounds to the ghosts of wounded Civil War soldiers who were housed here at the time of the war. Da Poodn is a real guy thoughg ask anyone in the school. We'll go farther than that, ask anyone in town. Be sure you get the right girl, after all there are girls and girls. t'Poodle is the smaller of the two Hockman brothers fthe other, Houndj therefore one may be sure to Find him a strapping young fellow, so he is.

X 19----- ------------ W-- O S O G A -'-- 'ri'- EDWARD STROH FASOLD Gigolo,' 'QFossiln Eddie Football '33-,343 Basketball '33-'34g Baseball '33-'34, As another of our ambitious students Eddie retains the all famed name of Gigolo.,' He is one of G. Afs most ardent lovers, and he has a keen desire for the opposite sex. Eddie was also one of the most promising athletes of the school, and will probably shine for the University of Pennsylvania in the future. Stroh has convinced the fellows that Sunbury, Pa., is a land of paradise and promise. ARTHUR LLEWLLYN FOGEL HAM, .flgogv Football ,33-,345 Baseball '33-,34. Now here is an ardent sponsor of girls' basketball teams. Rain or shine one will always find Art at the local high school cheering the girls on to victory. This quiet, reserved youth is a real student and a gentleman. Although at the time of the writing of this we have not seen the diamond stars in action, it is whispered about that Art is a flashy player. M ROBERT WILLIAM FROST Bob Pineapple K Vice President Upper Middle Class '32-33g Dance Committee ,33-'34g Osoga Staff '32-'33, ,33-,34- Bob is Gettysburgys gift to the F. 81 T. Lunch. Whenever curl, allowance comes along the F. 6: T. and the Majestic will have a tendency for businessg half the lower floor of the Main Building will be missing. This, folks, all just goes to show that Bob is the personification of generosity. Bob, having spent three years here with us, has soured so against the Square that he spends most of his time on our spacious campus, his favorite residing place. Happiness and success, Bob. We JOHN FRANK GRAFF, III Pete Q'Texas Football ,32-'33, '33-'34g Student Senate '32-'33g President '33-'34g Ring Committee '33-'34g Chairman of Dance Committee '33-,343 Chairman of Alumni Committeeg Literary Editor of Osoga '33-'34g Second Honor '31-,32, '32-'33g Chief Marshal ,33-,34. Pete is the type of fellow who has all the qualities that go to make up a perfect gentleman. Besides being a good looking chap he is one of the best dressed fellows in the school, and of course, you would expect him to have many feminine admirers, which he has. Pete also possesses a natural talent for music. One will always find the room crowded when z'Texas decides to strum on his guitar or to toot a soothing melody by vmy of the clarinet. Pete is also a studious soul and uses his spare time to the best advantage, sometimes even studying far into the night. Let,s hope he meets with the best results when the laurels are dealt out. But do not be led to believe that Pete', is a book worm, for at the arrival of football season 'cPete was one of the first candi- dates to try his skill at this manys game. We all think Pete', is a fine fellow and feel sure the fellows will witness a sad farewell when graduation day rolls around. im

WILLIAM WARREN HO upopn uRebe1v u . Q l Secretary Student Senate '33-'34g Ring Committee '33- 34. ' Our one and only l'Southern Gentlemanf, who was head waiter this year. Bill gave the basketball team many a hard scrimmage. His spectacular playing with the Main Building was one of the main factors in their victories over Stevens Hall. Rebel is one of the school's most humorous boys, and also one of the most obliging in the school. He is one of these rare people who always have a cheery greeting and a bright smile. We all wish Q'Bill as much success in his ensuing years of study as he has had in the past. 19----- ------------- o s o G A H- - - -H- GEORGE CHARLES HURS w5L, ,.Reds,, imankyn r i 31 . Here is a real tray slingerg those who have had the pleasure of ining i our dining- salon and had the luck to reside at Georgels table know this to be a fact. ot content to see the boys are well fed in the dining hall, Q'Reds has gone into the restaurant business on the Main Building. It is not an unknown fact that 'QGeorgie', is a real social lion. Few Academy fellows have equaled this titianed topped gentleman's success in the ranks of Gettysburg society. We hope to hear great things of George, and we know he will not disappoint us. uReds,, wfarzanv I Z HARRY LEHNER I I' Football '30-'31g Honor Captain ,32-'33, y33-,345 Ring Committee '33-,34g Dance Committee ,33-,349 Vice President Student Senate '33-,34g President of Senior Class '33-'34. Harry Lehner. There is a name that means something. It means two hundred and some twenty odd pounds of beautiful manhood. Those who know Reds know that deep beneath that mighty chest is buried a heart of gold. He has been a student at the Academy for many years without a single mar upon the clear horizon of his career. Harry has watched them come and watched them go. and all have felt that great bond of good fel- lowship and brotherhood toward him. Football opponents knew to their sorrow what it meant to oppose Tarzan the Terrible, that avalanche of bone and muscle. For Hve years l'Reds,, has graced the Orange and Blue eleven, being elected honorary captain as a suitable climax. Athletics is not the only phase of fame that the gods have so generously showered upon Harry, as he was chosen by the Senior class as their guiding hand and president. This energetic man, topped by a gorgeous halo of fiery locks, has been active in practically every line of school activity existingg therefore it would be foolish for us to try to discuss his true worth in this so small an allotted space. Yes, as the class breaks up, each going his separate way, we realize, and we would like to pass the word along to any other reader, that Harry Lehner is a name that means something-and a friend long to be cherished. GEORGE ROMAN LONGANECKER George,' 'QGander Football '33-'34g Basketball Q33-'34g Baseball '33-y34g Student Senate '33-'34. George, a man among men, arrived at Gettysburg from York, Pa., in the balmy September days of 1933. He immediately began to prove himself a great asset to football and was the Academy's dashing fullback. All those who know George like him and like his old Dutch speech. George is a gentleman and a worker. One never sees George with a local girl because of his unshirking loyalty to his York weakness. 110 l
