OSOGA '-33 ROBERT JACOB CALHOUN UBOBYF Great Day. ' Steelton, Pa. Basketball Team ,32-'33g Second Honor Roll '32-'33. Came to Gettysburg September, IQ32. Bohn is by far the leading man-the mainstay, as it were-of our grill roomf' I have actually seen this gentleman have his table set one hour before the first dinner bell. And if you could see some of our waiters you would indeed agree with me that this man's different. Since Bohn expects to continue at Gettysburg College next year, is that not indeed evidence that one year of our beloved Gettysburg is not at all enough for any man? Q35 JAMES A. CHARLEY Iron Man', Chawlie Strength is an asset to any rnanf, Derry, Pa. Senior Memorial Fund Committeeg Second Honor Roll '32-'33. Came to Gettysburg September, 1932. To describe this man in less than a thousand words would be impossible. To be concise, Iron Man is a combination of Earl E. Leiderman, Paul Muni, and Tarzan the Ape Man. Although 'zJimmy is very reserved one must not believe him unable to rise to the occasion when necessary. To see this specimen of physical perfection in action is a pleasure unsur- passable. The folksi s of Derry may be right proud of their Gettysburg representative. JOHN LEON DAUB Johnny Catfish', lt lake: brains to be alumbf' Norristown, Pa. Senior Memorial Fund Committee. Came to G tysburg February, 1928. There are t uman landmarks in the school. Dr. Huber is one-'lJohnny Daub is the 1 er. John e told us that if all the money he has paid into Gettysburg Academy were a e ether sent to Washington, this present administration wouldn't have to worry a ut '- er thingl If you ever have the time let John tell you about the spot nearest his ear ' orristown, We have actually heard him out-argue Havens in a discussion as to ' h- X, hrs of Trenton in comparison with Norristown. crane what may, John seems to be perpetually good natured, and his cheery outlook on Ii wi .probably bring him as many friends in after life as it has in the class of '33. WILLIAM JUSTUS DENNER Tueton,' Von A regular kick from the real country, be ufasf' Manchester, Md. Second Honor Roll ,Bl-l32, '32-,333 Senior Memorial Fund Committee. Came to Gettysburg September, 1931. Justus is the Adolf Hitler of our fair school. To see him stroll, or should we say stalk, down the street, body erect, and head surmounted with a Hitler hair-cutw is-is sompin. And to hear him talk one would think the sun rises and sets on Germany. Even the great Indalecio Perez gives up bragging about Cuba when Von', appears on the scene. But on top of it all, RW. Jf' is a scholar, a real friend, and a gentleman-need more be said! U3 Il

OSOGA '-33 I 3 ,F DAVID BOYD Dave', Q'Blonclie'l Quick, I-Ienry, the Flirfl' Philadelphia, Pa. , ,Football '31, Press Club T30-'31, '31-'32, '32-,33g Co-Editor of the GAG, Osoga Staff 32-'33, Second Honor Roll 30-'31, Second Honor Roll '31-,323 ,32-'33, Student Senate '32-,335 Chairman Dance Committee '32-'33, Baseball ,33. Came to Gettysburg September, 1930. H We,have often' wondered how the girls of Philadelphia bore the pangs of departure when Blondie turned his steps toward G-burg. Then, upon his arrival, we began to wonder what manner of demon this blond haired Adonis from the Quaker city was. In fact, folksies, there are many things about this Creature that have instigated our wondering machine. Seem- ingly immune to the charms of the opposite sex, our Davey has indeed got it in the bag when it comes to our knowledge of his amorous affairs. But all the same Dave's a plenty much good boy, and we wish him the very best of luck regardless of his future undertakings. ICI-IARD EDGAR BRADBROOK Scotty', xl A bird in the air shall carry the voice. Rockville Center, L. I., N. Y. i T 3 ,32, ,32'733- a t ett urg February, 1931. X wo rs ago ast February Scotty blew in upon us and proceeded to intrench himself firmly in r midst. Since then we have been favorably blessed with his good nature and swell voice. cottyv tells us that he expects to carry on at Dartmouth. Best of luck, and more power to you, Scotty . EDXVIN SHERMAN BRAINARD ' Eddie A finished gentleman from top to toe. Pittsburgh, Pa. Press Club '32-'33, Tennis Team ,3o-'31, Second Honor Roll '30-,31g Senior Memorial Fund Committee. Came to Gettysburg September, 193o. Absent following year. Returned September, 1932. Although he is our strong, silent man-at least one of them--'lEddie is by far not the least conspicuous. Always willing to oblige, Ed has made many sturdy friends during his two years with us, and it is our most sincere wish that he be most successful in whatever he undertakes. 'il GEORGE EDWARD BROWN, JR. Buster Q'Brownie', CIW I have the strength of ten because my lveart is puref' Clifton Heights, Staten Island, N. Y. Rifle Team 730-,3I,V ,Bl-,32, ,32-'33, Dance Committee '33. Came to Gettysburg September, 1930. This, ladies and gentlemen, is the personality man of our class. It is indeed a treat to be present at Epley's when friend uBuster,' struts his stuff. And not being satisfied with the above advantageous trait, Browniel' has also proved himself to be a magician of no mean ability. In fact we are not the least bit doubtful but that we shall see Q'Buster's name among the lead- ing magicians of America some day. It seems that the path of fate is leading Buster', to Gettysburg College next year. Best of luck, Buster ! li 22 T

OSOGA 533 CD CHARLES FRANKLIN DOUGLAS erD0ugvr izclarkry 'Ah ba, fair maidensf hissed the villain, tnfixling his lmrley mustaclzefi Orwigsburg, Pa. Baseball '33. Came to Gettysburg September, 1932. The gentleman whose picture accompanies this write-up is the hero of not a few Gettys- burg girls, and-incidentally-the marvel of not a few Academy boys themselves. This is one of the human specie who can really wear a mustache and not look like-oh any number of things. And we are awaiting the day when some movie director spies Doug , for when and if he ever hits the silver screen, millions of feminine hearts will surely be broken. But l'Dougl' is one plenty nice ball twirler. He is reputed of having more hooks on a ball than a chorus girl has on her costume. Whether he aspires to be a big-leaguer, we can't say, but if he continues in his present capacity, helll be no mean amateur, believe us. A PAUL FRANKLIN ECKER l'Eck', t'PaulH They lauglved Wlven I rat down to the piano-W-lj' Osoga Staff '32-,33g Press Club ,31-'32, '32-'33, Dance Committee '32-'33, School Pianist l32-'33, Temp Ports Orchestra, Hanover Dance Orchestra. Came to Gettysburg September, 1929. Here, dear friends, is probably the best natured member of our class. We have yet to see Eck', when he doesnlt feel inclined to lend a hand. And besides being a possessor of that most admirable trait, Paul,' can really do things to a piano and trombone. We hope some day to see our Paul', classed with Jack Miles and Bert Lown, both famous orchestra leaders as well as trombone players. Very rarely have we ever seen Eck,' when he hasn't some music with him, and he is always willing to rip off a tune on the piano for us, too. His course has been exceedingly difhcult this year, and it is with pardonable pride that we boost him as one of our best workers. gs I VICTOR FALCONE s Monky' Vic W' Wl7at.l No Salome! Utica, N. Y. Football ,3o, '31, '32, Basketball ,32-,333 Second Honor Roll '30-,31, ,31-'32, Student Senate '32-,333 President Junior Class l3o-'31, President Lower Middle Class '31-,325 President Upper Middle Class ,32-'33. Came to Gettysburg September, 1930. It is very rarely that one runs across a person that excels both in athletics and scholarship. UVic , however, is one of these exceptions. For the past three years he has been one of the mainstays of the football team, and has maintained an enviable scholarship record as well. And on top of all that the Monk,' has proved to be one of the finest fellows in the school. We predict big thin or this boy. Good luck, Vic,'! X 1 BERNARD JOHN GIRTON Boomer', Dynamite often comer in small pacltageffj Bloomsburg, Pa. Football ,325 Basketball ,32-'33, Student Senate '32-,339 Baseball ,33. Came to Gettysburg September, 1932. This diminutive creature proved to be one of the fastest backs Gettysburg Academy foote ball has ever seen. It was a certain gain when the ball was given to Boomerl', and it was he who was responsible for many of the high-lights of the last season's games. But Barney excels not only in football-he's a basketball man, too. He has only been with us a year, and the only grudge that we can have against him is that he didn't come to Gettysburg sooner. l24l'
