;- :«SBa 3s Bsa The 1928 Amptennian PERCY MILLER Percival Chang ’ A large crowd is awaiting the clash of the gridiron. Among the players for our Alma Mater we sec Percy, whose motto is Play football and grow thin. Although Percy, coming from Cementon. had a chance to get a free ride daily to attend another high school, he refused it all and kept up his loyal support on Northampton High School. As an active member of the Hi-Y and also a very studious boy. he has always been found some place in the lead. He has proved himself a capable book keeper. and what would we have done without our Chang” to clang the cymbals in the band? The orchestra knows him for a violinist. Percy has many friends in and out of school. His one ambition is to attend a higher institution and become an A No. I bookkeeper. Here's luck to you. Percy.

Never leave till tomorrow that which you can do today.” The fact that he is a member of the National Honor Society is sufficient evidence that he is devoted to his studies. John takes little interest in the social activities. His time is divided between sports and his lessons. Monroe made a name for himself as our third baseman on the varsity team. He not only is prominent in baseball, but is our star forward on the class basketball team. Although John uses his physical abilities to advantage, he never neglects his studies. He is one of our champion bookkeepers. Monroe was also an S. B. A. member, but sad to say he is a woman-hater. Oh. well. Monroe found that he either had to choose between women and studies, and. choosing the latter, he has been rewarded for his his choice. C lass Basketball (1. 2.'3. 4); Baseball (2. 3. 4); a B. A.

The Hudson is the pride of his heart next to his beloved sax. He is the leader of the famous Agony Sextet. being one of our enthusiastic syncopatcrs in the High School Orchestra. A valuable asset to the class basketball team he was. helping to win the class trophy last season. Although Sam is a carefree fellow, he finds his time well divided in work and play. He excels in arithmetic and is a steady worker in all other subjects. We fell certain that when Sam enters life’s channel, he will be a successful helmsman.

I he 1928 Amptennian : :3£ $8? PAUL MALARCHUK “Pauly When “Pauly began his freshman year he was very bashful and spent most of his time studying. Soon he began to realize that his social activities were being neglected and now he has learned that there is a time for work and a time for play. “Pauly has been a member of the Glee Club since he entered high school. That he can use his voice to advantage is seen by the fact that he captured second prize in the Oratorical Contest. His combined singing and speaking ability made him an ideal person for the hero of the Rose of Tokio. Paul is also an athlete, having been a varsity football man and one of the marathon race winners. “Pauly” has not yet decided definitely what he shall do after he leaves school but whatever he chooses may the good Lady Fortune speed him on his way.

KENNETH MENS1NGER Pretzel Kf: Look a little more closely, reader, and you will sec that this fair visaged one is none other than Kenny.” Whenever wc think of him. we think of his hair, and when we think of that, we also can picture him. day in and out. combing and straightening his permanent” every time he thinks about it. Kenneth has won much popularity in his four years, for he is the possessor of a first tenor voice which he always uses to its best advantage. He surely scored hits in the plays and Glee Club. He does not spend all his time singing, though, for he hammers the keys of the typewriter. He enjoys taking dictation and will be a valuable asset to any business man. When Kenneth has any spare time he usually takes the shortest route to Coplay. Kenneth, your future is promising, wc wish you success in making the best of it. Aces, all aces!

Arlene is ♦'ery ambitious and industrious, a faithful worker who is always willing to do her share. Coming from the third ward she enjoys her walks to and from school (a-hem!). Arlene s chief hobby is doing domestic science work, and she can do it. especially when it comes to cooking and baking. Ask any one who has tested some of her cakes. Her friendly disposition rivals even the goodness of her cooking. Only once have we seen the black cloud. Wc shall not forget Mandy.” Some day we’ll see her as a home economics teacher. Good luck and success to you. Arlene. Kathleen (I); Miss Bob White (2) Girl Reserves(3.4); Amptennian Staff (4); Row of Tokio (4); French Club (4). 2b KNorthampton High School

se:ae Bsass»a The 1928 Amptennian Enweasoi ar-Hjse®, CHARLES REICHARD Tod Charley” Clap hands, here comes “Charley.” “Tod” is one of our most accomplished makers, and being a member of “Brinkey’s’’ hangout, we can’t expect him to be quiet. “Tod” is a good student, though he often forgets to do his work. But when he has time to study he really does study and the results arc amazing. Having athletic ability. Tod” was a faithful member of the football and basketball teams. Outside of school hours, when “Tod” isn’t home writing letters, he can be found in Catty.” Charles has not decided upon a career, but we feel sure he will make a success of whatever he undertakes. The class wishes you luck. Tod.” Kathleen (1); Miss Boh White (2); Fleurette (3); Rose of Tokio (4); S. B. A.

MILDRED REINERT “Millie” This charming member of our class is an active worker, being a good commercial student. She has won several pins and certificates for proficiency in those studies. Personally. Mildred is interested in jewelry and may some day make an efficient private secretary to the head of some jewelry establishment. We approve heartily of her taste. She was student manager for the girls during the basketball season, filling that position very well indeed. Millie” is interested in hair dressing and we will soon put her in her own Elite parlor.

LEWIS REINHARD “Babes” “Valentino’s Double” Looking at “Babes” you can sec he is innocent looking and quiet. Yes. he is a very quiet boy in school, but when out of school he can be as noisy as the rest, but a very good sport as well. Babes” comes from Coplay, but during his one year with us he has made many friends. He has shown a marked interest in pianists. But we can’t blame him for that. As a member of our football squad he proved his loyalty to N. H. S. His American-bcauty blush has been one of his distinctive contributions. He can usually be found at “Brinkey’s” or. when in Coplay, at ” Trankley s hangout. Babes” is undecided as to his future, but we all wish him success in whatever he may undertake.
