WILLIAM KUNTZ HARTZELL B-zzz Academic Four years ago the portals of Northampton High School werempened and this young fellow was ad- mitted into the Class of '24. 'tBill was a bit bash- ful, but he has been cured of that. He took an ac- tive part in Athletics, having been a member of the Class Basketball :team for four years and has held down the initial sack on the diamond. He was class president this year, treasurer of the Black and Orange, and was a Contest Speaker. He took the leading role in, Springtime and is a member of the Amptennian Staff. William has an attractive per- sonality and formed many friendships while in high school. He intends taking up medicine. We wish him success. JESSE JOHN HERRSTEB Chess-ic General Would you believe that this insignificant, digni- fied piece of humanity belonged to our class? -ell, if you believe it, you're right, and let no one tell you otherwise, Jess came to us four long years ago, a bright scholar and destined to become one ofithe first in the class, but, his eyes were rolled in the direction of the feminine sex and he fell - but he didu't hurt himself. Chessie is a faithful member of the U-Needa-Biscuit Crew and at the present time resides in the peaceful community of Orrnrod. Altho holding no class offices, nor partaking in any athletics, Jesse has always been a faithful worker for the class. We found that Jesse frequents town quite often and we wonder why? We do not know what Jesse intends taking up after his High School career is ended but we wish him great success. , 1 AMPTENNIAN, '24 ADELE LAURA HEYMAN General Course Hold your hats! here we have the talker of our class. Adele talks and then talks some more, but her talking has not always been in vain, for she talked the judges into giving her first prize in the Oratorical Contest and in giving her side the deci- sion in the Inter-Class Debate, She had important parts in Cherry Blossom, Springtime and demon- strated 'her ability as an elocutionist at the Spring Concerts. Adele shows good class spirit and is a faithful friend. She was an active member of the class B. B. team, a member of Campfire, and Jest Editor for the Black and Orange. She intends to pursue for work in oral expression at some higher institution next year. Tzcfenity One

Then, he was one of the quiet, studious boys, but now in- stead of taking an active part in athletics, he is satished to go to the game and root for the team and use the surplus amount of energy to annoy the t'eachers with his continual talking. VVhen Eeny found that the best thing he could do -was talk he decided to make his talking worth- while and was one of the four boys chosen for the Ora-torical Contest. I-Ie also had one of the leading parts in.the Class Play. Eeny has now completed his course and ex- pects to become a prominent member of a large busi- ness Iirm sometime in the future. Success to you Eeny old chap-adieu. MABEL VIOLET FRABLE Bubble Commercial ' Mabel is a very quiet girl when certain teachers are around but oh my that third period in the morning certainly is used by Mabel and her friends by telling what occurred over the week-end. Her greatest pleasures are piano playing, dancing, enter- taining friends and roaming to Laury's. However, she is business-like and taps'the type- writer keys and writes shorthand at a surprising rate. She won the fifty-word bar which proves to us her ambition for commercial work which she has completed successfully. Mabel intends to work for some large automo- bile company, especially one that is specializing in Fords. We wish you the best of success Bubble, l l MAE ISABEL GOUGHER 'tS11ubs' Commercial Twenty' l Sh! Who is that girl? To be sure if it isnt Snubs, our young lady stenographer from Second Ward. Mae was a very quiet girl when she first entered high school, but after two years of study hervquietness disappeared and now we find her president of the Giggler's Club. She is also an honorary member of the inseparable Four. Mae has not taken part in many affairs, but one day we shall find her typing the scenario of her own play entitled The Mystery of a Dimplef' Mae has not yet decided what she will do after she leaves school, but the class of '24 wishes her success in anything she attempts.
