Northampton High School ■« $ 5S The 1928 Amptennian MARGARET KLEPPINGER Butch Butch!” Whenever we hear her name mentioned we think of recitations, for she is our class elocutionist. She has taken a keen interest in dramatics and shows great ability along this line. Whenever any work is to be done Butch is always willing to do her share, never shirking her duties. She is a member of the National Honor Society. Although she has never taken part in sports, she is an ardent booster at all of our games. Her ever pleasant smile has won her many friends of both sexes. Margaret is interested in teaching. In a few years you may hear of her as a professor in some large college. She expects to enter Moravian College next fall. Success to you. Butch.

RAY KOEHLER Here's a bashful boy clinging to his seat. Ray Koehler, one lad of our class perfectly immune from the arts of the fairer sex. Ray is a hard worker in all that he undertakes. Diligence in his studies has won him the respect of the entire class. Machine riding is Ray’s hobby. Every night at about ten o'clock you are sure to see him coming down Main Street with his Essex. Ray is also a loyal rooter of our sports and many a time he has taken the “gang” down to a game. Ray is interested in commercial work and we feel sure whatever he undertakes he will accomplish. Badge Club (1). PETER KORELLO K’rello This quiet, unassuming fellow is one of the earnest workers of the class, with a knack for going after things and getting them. Peter is one of the silent fellows, who thinks a lot but never says much. Although he studies hard. Peter cannot earn a good mark in French, but chemistry seems to come to him better. Peter is not a fellow for athletics, although he did come out for basketball in his senior year. A pleasant manner and ever-ready smile are assets that are going to help him to achieve success in his chosen life. Peter wishes to become a pharmacist and we’re sure he will make a good one.

 § ::I he I 928 Amptennian RAY H1ESTAND ,,Maxm Ray. the mighty hunter and trapper, is also bound fast by the chains of convention and of the state, and so he comes to school. During the first three years of his attendance one might have thought he was stealthily stalking some timid creature and did not dare to make noise. That was in his first three years. Now he still stalks wild boars or lions, but he does not do it quietly. A most expert sleuth would not be able to find Mr. Hiestand in or near school the first day of the hunting season. Lessons can't even track him. He throws them off his trail without the least of difficulty. Yet. he must be a good young man. for he belongs to the Hi-Y and some say he canvassed all of Pennsylvania to sell fourteen tickets for the class play. BESSIE HOFFMAN Blackie Shrimp Black eyes and a laugh come with Bessie, our class financier. She displays her skill as a business woman by handling all the candy money for the class and for the Girl Reserves as well. For two years Shrimp was a cheerleader, and a cheerful cheerleader she was. B« ng interested in all activities our Blackie always could counted on when work was to be done or fun to be had. We ll not forget that her sales for Captain Applejack tickets went over the hundred mark. There s loyalty! Varsity basketball found Blackie guarding the glory of N. H. S. Her membership in the Four Horsemen gang verifies her good sportsmanship. She was on of the earliest members of Philomathean; besides. Shrimp is a good student, a member of National Honor Society. As a modest worker full of energy and cheer. Bessie gets another A.

Kid Frobisher Helen is a very studious girl and it is a pleasure to see how willingly she always carries her share of responsibility. Trials may come, but Helen meets them with a smile and a determination to win. She spends lots -no not all of her time at her lessons. As the secretary of the Girl Reserves. Helen has filled her office faithfully. She also took part in the class play. Helen’s winning ways have drawn many friends to her. Her soft modulated laugh is pleasing to hear. Her voice is also an asset to the Glee Club. If you want to be entertained come and hear Helen play on the fiddle. Although Helen is an efficient student of stenography, we feel she will not grow old on the job.

ennian •«3xs v; The 1928 A nipt NORMAN LAUB ‘‘Professor” ‘‘Lorb’ 1 i i I Well, here is Norman violinist, actor, debater, and history shark. The violin comes first, you notice it always goes with Norman. Chi Fu. the deformed beggar with his weird cry of ‘‘Alms. and Mr. Pengard. alias Zoroaster the Second, of deep Hindu coloring, are not easily recognized in the ordinary mien of “Professor.” But once he is beyond the footlights, no contortion is too great to expect of this lanky lad. History and debating find him an apt student. Where literature is concerned, his favorite poem is Burns’ Highland Mary. In a few years Lorb will be Professor of social science; in some lucky school.

When he entered high school he was so bashful he could not give a satisfactory recitation. But his fourth year found a different sort of fellow, and although he still cannot look a girl straight in the eye. he can easily be heard in a gang of fellows. Carl is a very studious fellow and usually has his lessons in on time. He did not blossom in any sports until his last year when he became a varsity guard on our football team. Buttercups” ambition is to become one of the heads of the Mauser Mill and we all wish him good luck. Badge Club (I. 2); Miss Bob White (2); French Club (4); Football (4); Hi-Y (4). MABEL LERCH “Lerchie” Shorty Mabel is one of the shorties in the class. She may be small and not easily seen but she can readily be heard. She enjoys telling jokes. If you want to hear the latest, go to Mabel. With Mabel there is time for both work and pleasure. She has spent her time successfully and is ready to go out into the business world. Not only can she talk, but you ought to hear her drown the others in the Glee Club. She is a member of the G. R. Small in stature, but big-hearted. that s Mabel. She spends lots of her spare time in the vicinity of Twenty-first and Main. What can be the attraction? Let's investigate. Her merry laugh and jests will remain as an echo of the class of ’28. Whatever may be your fate or the road of life you traverse, we unite our hopes in wishing you success. Mis Bob White (2); Rose of Tokio (4); Glee Club (3, 4); Girl Reserves (3. 4).
