Jamesburg H. S. MILDRED THOMPSEN General Millie is the genius of the senior class. We all look up to her in awe be- cause she always knows the answer to every question any teacher ever asks, always has her homework done and is forever producing masterpieces from her talented brain and hands. Next year - college, to study medicine. Well, Mil- lie, keep up the good work, and we know you will make a grand go of it. lf ever any of us need expert medical advice we will know whom to call upon. lOHN FRANCIS VAN AKEN Agr. Happy-go-lucky lack has a way with him. His attractive personality is win- ning him a host of friends, and he is willing and ready to give his time and support to our class. lack enjoys hunt- ing and driving as his favorite hobbies, but doesn't let overwork from studying worry him. Country life has its appeal, and his future will probably be spent us- tng the knowledge gleaned from Agricul- tural class, in making his farm a model one. LILY TROTZINKA General Lil is comparatively quiet, but is rather contrary at times. Nevertheless, her ready smile flashes at frequent in- tervals and a wink generally accompanies it. She has definite opinions on various matters and usually does not hesitate to voice them. Sports, in general, appeal to Lil. Evidently the sciences - Chem- istry in particular - do, too, for her ultimate choice for a vocation is that of a laboratory technician. lEAN C. WEISERT Academic What would we do if we didn't hear lean's cheery Hi-ya when we meet her in the halls? Always ready with a cheery word when one needs it most - that's lean. l-ler amiable, charming manner is going to take her places, mark our words. jean wants to be a pre-school teacher. Well, we wish her all the luck in the world. Next year - college, then, after four successful years, graduation and a profitable position awaiting her. Nice work.

LOUIS A. SELL General A happy grin and a droll sense of hu- mor which makes the most serious face smile, coupled with several talents gives us Lishki. We all enjoy his saxophone playing and he certainly can swing it. Any who saw Soup to Nuts will nev- er forget him as the excitable doctor who used his hands and arms so ex- pressively. Lishki's ambition is to go to college to study business administra- tion. We hope he swings that as well as the saxophone. IOSEPH A. SPEZIO General A friendly lad, always ready to help, that's Spuds. Although he doesn't over-indulge in school work, he seems to get along quite nicely. His ambition is to enter the field of draftsma-nship. We feel he chooses wisely for he is quite an expert in the art. l-le goes in for sports especially basketball and baseball. We are always entertained with his scarlet blush for it does not seems to fit in with his air of noncha- lance. Class of 1938 MARY A. SHERMAN Commercial Mary is a quiet student who seems to stick quite closely to a number of chos- en friends. She has taken up the busi- ness course and intends to enter the secretarial field. Numbered among her hobbies are sewing and swimming. Maw has always cherished a secret de- sire for traveling. We hope her ambi- tion will some day be realized. GERALD STEIB General jerry came to us in our Sophomore year and it didn't take him long to get acquainted with us all. jerry always has a smile for everyone. jerry like to take autos - especially Ford V-8's - apart to see what makes the wheels go 'round. This burning cur- iosity has led jerry to believe that being a-n auto mechanic will be his vocation after graduation.

KENNETH WEISERT General Ken has the heartiest laugh in the world and the tallest frame in the sen- ior class. When the seniors get togeth- er, one never misses seeing Ken among the horde. And how that lad can play the piano! He's going to give Eddie Duchin some serious competition. Need- less to say, music is Ken's hobby. Next year, he says, he intends to go to col- lege, but what courses he's going to take he failed to mention. Perhaps you'll start a band in college, Ken? MURRAY B. YACKNOWITZ Academic Yacko has a tall frame and a most engaging grin. And he's the best sport ever. What a fast game of varsity bas- ketball he plays, tool Oh, yes, Yacko is a swelegent fellow. Take it from us who know. His hobby is photography. Well, he always did have an eye for pretty girls and pretty girls make good subjects. Murray would like to be an electrical engineer, though. So, to make a pun, more power to you, Yackol MARCIA WILLIAMS Academic Marcy's auburn tresses set her apart from the crowd. Her attractive manner and infectious chuckle coupled with her talents give her a winsome personality, which has made her friends lwho really know and understand herl staunch ones. Marcia has taken part in various school activities - dramatics, as well as being literary editor on The Broadcaster and Tomahawk, Marcy has a remarkable flair for writing and as she expects to go to college to study journalism we are sure that this ability will take her places in her chosen field. MURIEL A. YESS Commercial Mickey, as many of her friends know her, has a sunny disposition and a generous nature. She acts as secre- tary to various faculty members and they all agree that she is a very capable young person. Mickey desires to be a secretary in some large concern, and we know she will succeed as she has the rare ability, not only of doing her work well, but doing it with a smile. Class of 1938
