Because of his amiable disposition, Digger has made many friends. His ambition to enter the profession of a Funeral Director has made him the object of many jokes, but he has been quick to turn these pranks back upon their originators with others of his own.

KENNETH KLINGERMAN ffKen,, Dramatics-3, 4 Basketball-2, 3, 4 Baseball-3, 4 Yearbook-4 Ken, being very popular with the opposite sex, has often been the object of Mr. Stofan's jokes about his one and onl-y from Lan- caster. Nevertheless, he does not let this disturb him in the least as is shown by his active participation in outside activities as well as his scholastic diligence. Possessing a cheerful disposition and an ability to convince people, he will surely succeed in his ambition to be a minister. JOHN KRESGE llBudl!

Not only has he kept the class laughing but in most cases the teachers, too. However, in addition to his clowning, Bud has found time to actively participate in many extra-curricular activities.

As he is not one to talk much about anything, very little is known about his ambitions. That he has athletic abilities, however, is evidenced by his playing on the baseball team for four years. Whatever his voca- tion, we feel sure that Gabe will be successful. GEORGE LESSER llBuz,l Band-1, 2, 3, 4 Chorus-4 A very likeable fellow, George is that type of boy in our class who has not made an enemy.
