GERALD ARNOLD “Fodder' Now or never is Fodder’s” attitude towards German which is his Waterloo. Tallness accounts for his participating in the half mile for track, while accuracy gives him the qualities of a good basketball player. Gerald’s main indoor recreation is dancing, which he does very well.

GERALD BATT “Slim “Oxford 0100”—no other than Mr. Ferguson of the senior play, known to his friends as “Slim”. As one of the class cut-ups, Gerald has provoked many a laugh from his class- mates.

THE COMET Our Progress Like a new invention needing much improvement, we, the class of ’41, entered a new phase of experimentation on a bright September morning in 1938. As sophomores we were embarking on our career in senior high school. It took us quite some time to settle down and do some work. Later we enjoyed the Hallowe’en party and the purchasing of pennants and emblems. During our junior year we received our class rings and by that time we began to feel a relationship toward the seniors. This relationship was solidified by the numerous social functions which ended in a blaze of joy at the Prom. But as inventions are improved speedily, the senior year found us improving in our attitude toward extra class activities. “What a Life”, our senior play, the “Comet”, the Prom, at which we were the guests of the junior class, and the Hallowe’en, Thanksgiving, and Christmas parties were the outstanding events. Now after all this experimentation and hard labor, we are practically finished with our high school years. Although some of us may go to other institutions, none of us will ever forget the three happy years at N. H. S- William Breidinger, Historian. twenty-two

THE CDMET JOHN BECK “Becky” For an interesting story, see John who knows them all. Although out late some nights, “Becky’s” sleep is made up on Saturdays, oundays, and holidays. He gets along in all sub- jects except English. His main ambition is walking his girl friend to and from school. Class Basketball (1) (2); Craft Club (1). MURRAY BERNSTEIN “Bernstein” A tall, husky fellow with black curly hair is Murray who hailed from California. He probably wanted to get a diploma from a good school; at least, that’s what we think. Although not an exceptional student, his humor marks him as one who is easy to get along with. He puts in a lot of time for teachers after 3:30, but Bernstein is a good basketball player. Track (3); Class Basketball (3). ROBERT BITZ “Bitzie” The eighth wonder of the world would be “Bitzie” study- ing during the fifteen minute periods. Watch those bandanas, girls, for there’s “Bitzie” at his tricks. Although a commercial student, he is more interested in sports than in his chosen field. Football, Assistant Manager (1); Basketball, Assistant Manager (1), Manager (2); Athletic Association (2). luvnly-four
