Carl, although being quiet and modest, has forged for himself the reputation of being a hard worker. He has ably assisted in the publication of the school newspaper and we feel that Carl will succeed in whatever he undertakes as his life work. RQBERT MATCHICK 'gMavcus Basketball-2, 3, 4 Football-3 Yearbook-4 Marcus has left to posterity many memorable stories about his ad- ventures while behind the wheel of his beloved truck. His participa- tion in athletics includes both football and basketball, in which he played on the varsity squad. His knowledge and skill in mechanics has often amazed us, and we feel certain that Marcus will do well as an auto mechanical engineer. JAMES MILLER Hfimmyn Baseball-3, 4 Athletic Manager-1, 2 Class Officer-2, 4 Yearbook-4 Hi, Jimmy, has ben a familiar call resounding throughout the halls at M. M. I, during the past four years. Due to his pleasant per- sonality and his subtle sense of humor, Jimmy is one of the most popu- lar boys in the class. His social activities are almost a secret except for the few times he is seen at the Hazleton and Freeland youth can- teens. Although he is an occasional day dreamer, Jimmy always manages to come up with the right answers when called upon. Jimmy's per- serverance and resourcefulness assure him of a very successful future. GEORGE MGLLICK G C 7 Athletic Manager-1, 2 Band-l, 2, 3, 4 Baseball-3 George is one of the mainstays of the M. M. I. band. He leads the trumpet section, and although no person is -indispensable, George would be sorely missed. A rather quiet lad, George sits contentedly in the classroom taking everything in and smiling once in a while. He is undecided about his ambition, but will probably make-good in what- ever field he enters. f gg! f f . fc . ,t,g,,yx.,f f m f Myfirwv ? X' 2.551 .443

Upon his dis- charge he returned to Freeland and resumed his studies. Having had many experiences in the Navy, Ray knows his Way around. Although he is a few years older than we, he is still considered one of the fellows Raylg diligence and perseverance should carry him far. I CARL KISLAN Carl Dramatics-2, 3, 4 Carl's innocnt expression should, by no means, be taken as an in- dication of his nature, for wherever there is any mischief, he is likely to be around. Always one who appreciates a good practical joke, Carl not only has been the instigator of many, but has often been the re- cipient of several. In his more serious moments, Carl has shown his abilfity as a true scholar. He is undecided about his future work, but he will undoubtedly make good in the field he enters.

SALVATORE PETRILLI Sal Bnseballfl 4 Athletic Mziiizigeref-fl, 3 Band-1 Yearbook-4 Sal 115 that outspoken lad who has such a hard time restraining him- self from shouting out wisecracks in class. Possessing a sharp Wit he usually has an answer for everything, although not necessarily correct. Sal can most often be found in Nick's sipping at a coke or pounding away at the pinball machine. His very generous nature is one of his main traits. A hard worker, Sal should go far in his chosen Held of dentistry. ELWOOD SCHNEIDER i'Deacon Yearbook Staff-4 Deacon can be seen almost daily riding to school in his smart, little Chevy coupe. During the noon hour he takes great delight in sound- ing his variety of warning signals, which range from foghorns and bells to lur-ing wolf whistles. He is one of the few members of our class who has traveled extensively outside our homestate, having gone almost as far as the West Coast. Elwood will always pause to hear a good joke, and his appreciative laughter can often be heard echoing near and far. We feel sure that he will attain success because of his fine abilities and traits.
