1 RENIA DOROTHY SHELLHAMER General Slmiw little but slze's wise, She 's cl. terror for he-r size. This petite one was a very shy girl until the latter part of he Junior year. At this time she started to tease and pest the bo'-'K so 'much that we had to nickname her Pest However, she prefer her own pet name, Tutz. You hear her speak of Our bunch oc- casionally and very often of a red rose even in winter time. She was very studious through- out her High School course and ranks high among her classmates. She was secretary of the class for two years, a member of the Or- chestra last year, and an Oratori- cal Contest Speaker. She intends to continue her stu- dies and become a school teacher but she also has an ambition to become a nurse. Renia, you may be sure that 1919,' looks forth to your success in whatever work you may choose to do. w,-. P i lf . l ff l.

What's that noise? That is Mity trying to tell us how many test tubes were swiped from him in the laboratory or relating his experiences after going on a fish- ing trip for an A . As you all know, his greatest delight is to cause trouble. Harry gets his lessons by read- ing the headlines and then 1'ecit- ing what he thinks it ought to be. A first-class fusser and some day, we hope, a first-class engineer. -W--11 1 1 ll

Hold thy reading glass closer, dear reader, and you will note that this fair visaged mortal is none other than our far famed hero Bull. His soap-box oratory puts all others to shame. He has cap- tured the first prize at oratorical contest, is captain of the basket ball team, class president, in gen- eral, all that is open for oiiice he has or had possessed, during his career here. His greatest accom- plishment in his time here is slin- ping thru class on looks, by Bull, hence his nic-k name. I-Ie intends to become a lawyer of note, and housing his office on 6th Avenue, New York. We fear very much, that like all other great men. he will fall to the charms of the woman's wiles. He is a patron of art, the terpsichor- ean variety, as he contributes 28c. weekly to trip a light fantastic toe. He is an advocate of the Young Men's Barber Shop Union and spent many of his precious S. BRUCE CHASE, JR. . College Preparatory Brutus, a by-product of Pen Argyl, entered the class ,of 1919 at the beginning of the Senior year, seemingly a modest and studious young man. But the gods, after a few days' residence in N. H. S., saw fit to remove his false coat and Crab shone forth in the pleasing garb of a regular fel- low. As the weeks leap-frogged their predecessors, Bruce formed a nat- ural affinity to the class of '22. His various successes and failures have been faithfully preserved in his diary. The Troubadour Four Jazz Quar- tet owes a larger part of its fame to this poor soul. His favorite songs, Roll Dem Bones and Oh Hel-en, have received much fav- orable comment. Bruce intends to continue his education at one of the higher in- stitutions, after taking a course in the 'tPsycholo,fry of Experience in Cuba. May thou too. a Brutus, have success like unto Caesar. evening hours improving this bene- ficial organization. K F' if as df 7

HILLARD ALVIN MILLER College Preparatory June 13, 1923. Dear Bruce: You're rightg I was born in Al- lentown in the month of December, not September, 1902. Yet, it scarcely seems possible ,that we had our Commencement Exercises four years ago tonight. Thoughts of school were in my mind the en- tire day. How I studied in those days-Jive minutes at a subject: and argued-over nothing. I had one fault. I see it all too plain now-I coudn't throw bull. When there were two solutions to a ques- tion, I would guess the Wrong one every time. Perhaps you remem- ber me as the leading' cornetist in the old school orchestra. When- ever I began to play the other members of the orchestra would stop to listen. Gr do you remem- ber me as a basket-ball player on the class tearn? Did you iforeget our little joke about a trip to Near-Beersvillei' on July lst? The little Ford gave me plenty of preparatory traininrr for the engineering course, which I completed in a few weeks.
