YETTA SIEGEL Class V.-Pres. (1) (2) Class Sec’y (3) Aloenim (3) G. A. A. Sec’y (3) Glee Club “Polly Lou” The Senior Class is fortunate in having Yetta Siegel for a member. Yetta, who was supposed to be grad- uated in ’26, surprised iTs all by join- ing the class of ’25. We expect to find her expounding her brains some- where in this wide world. JOAN SMITH G. A. A. Pres. (2) (3) (4) Class Vice-Pres. (3) (4) “Polly Lou” Basket Ball (3) (4) Track Team Glee Club (3) (4) Aloenim (2) (3) Editor (4) Winner of Triangular Speaking Contest (3) Class Recitationist When we recall our high school days we shall always picture Joan cheering a basketball team to victory, winning prizes as a public speaker, (occasion- ally being late for class, but always getting good ratings), and ever work- ing for Mineola High. We all wish her luck in her chosen career as a nurse. WILLIAM STEIDINGER B. A. A. Baseball (4) Bill drawls it out, but he always fnds a ready audience. He’s a good all ’round sport with a policy of “Haste makes waste’’.

BERTHA PRIBUL G. A. A. Orchestra Glee Club (2) (3) (4) Aloenim (4) Bertha’s talented fingers have cer- tainly been an asset to our class. She has played the piano for the school for quite a number of years, and has always helped in entertainments. She has been writing a continuous story for the Aloenim which is quite praise- worthy. Bertha is undecided as to what she will do after leaving high school. RAYMOND ROLFE Basket Ball (2) (3) Baseball Team (1) (2) (3) Track Team (1) (3) Aloenim (2) (3) B. A. A. Sec. (2) Winner of the Quadrangular Speak- ing Contest (3) Ray” is short and Ray” is fleeting, And the grave is not his goal, But to carry off the pennant, On the field where heroes roll, Bigger game he also tackles. Brave and dauntless, see him rise, And especially at Hicksville, When he won that speaking prize. GRACE SCHAUFELBERGER Basket Ball Team Capt. (3) (4) G. A. A. Treasurer (4) Girls’ Track Team (2) (3) When it comes to athletes, we put Grace at the head of the class. She is best remembered by he r whirlwind basket-ball playing; and it is alway ■ the ambition of the lower-classmen to play basket-ball like “Cappy”. As a studeyit and a sport, Grace can hold her place with the best of ’em. Next year will find her in the business world, but we still insist that she should be an Olympic star.

IRENE STELLWAGEN G. A. A. “Polly Lou” Glee Club Her smile is always cheery, Her laughter always gay; With her we’re never dreary, She cheers us on the way. FRANK VAN WAGNER Baseball (1) (2) Basket Ball (1) B. A. A. Van Wagner in our class is the handsomest boy, To his teachers and friends he’s a great deal of joy. His humor and nature have won every heart We all have admired him right from the start. We know that in life he’ll surely succeed For “Do ivhat. is right” and Work” are his creeds. ISABELLE Von OEHSEN Class Treasurer (2) (3) (4) Aloenim (3) (4) G. A. A. Vice-Pres. (4) Glee Club (3) (4) Charge to The Juniors “Polly Lou” “And still they gazed, And still the wonder grew, That one small head Could carry all she knew.” Now that she has stolen the hearts of the Senior Class, and particularly of a certain blond young man, we send Billy” off to Wellesley to win the hearts up there.
