BOHDAN ULANYTZKY 1343 Newport Avenue Be noble.1 and the nobleness that lies In other men, sleeping, but never dead, Will rise in majesty to meet thine own. —Lowell One musty afternoon a dark Hudson drove up in front of our school and a tall, well-rounded fellow emerged. He surveyed the building, squared his shoulders and with an air of defiance strode up the steps. Since that day he has proved himself worthy of a Northampton High School graduation, by distinguishing himself as a truly good sport, and polished gentleman. That quality of eagerness to task has placed him in the position where we can call him a friend in need. Little has been known as to what path Bode” would choose, but it has been revealed to the Editor that he intends to go abroad and study in an abbey to become a priest. Bon Voyage, O Son of Trials and Tribulation.” Academic Course, Debating Club, Band, Orchestra, Hi-Y Club, Junior Oratorical Contest, Amptennian Staff. CATHRYN RUPP 331 East 9th Street Joy, in Nature’s wide dominion. Mightiest cause of all is found; And ’tis joy that mot es the pinion When the u heel of time goes round. —Schiller “Hya, boys!” That’s Rupp’s greeting to whomever she sees wherever she goes. Friends, basketball, and talking are Rupp’s pet interests. She is the all around athletic type of girl. (All around the building, and all around creation!) Her ambition is to call all the Congressmen of Pennsylvania by their first names. However the serious part of her disposition is revealed in her desire to continue her course of study at “Hood College and become a teacher. Academic Course. Girl Reserves, Basketball, Rings in the Sawdust,” “Lantern Land, “Love Pirates of Hawaii,” Girls Glee Club, Health Revue. KENNETH SMITH 1825 Washington Avenue Blessed u ith plain reason and common sense. Quiet, energetic, secretive, studious—that’s the way Kenneth appears to us. Being of a quiet and unobtrusive nature we have not been able to know as much about him as we would like. However, he is a great favorite of sports and is always on hand for a game of football or tennis. Problems of Democracy” seems to be his favorite subject, and the orchestra, his favorite diversion. Kenneth has been rather shy of the opposite sex but perhaps somewhere else, there’s a reason.” Kenneth is the type of person, that is bound to have a life filled with service and success. Academic Course. Hi-Y Club, Band. Orchestra, Student Council, National Honor Society, Amptennian Staff, “Lantern Land,” Glee Club.

LUTHER J. MINNICH Cherryville, Pennsylvania Happiness consists in the multiplicity of agreeable consciousness. —Samuel Johnson “He floats through the air with the greatest ease....” not floating, but FLYING is the enchanted word, which to this sunny, blackhaired chap, is the very essence of his greatest ambition. To be an air pilot has been Luther’s most active desire for several years. The clouds present a rather high aiming limit, but not too high for an adventurous youth. Luther’s good nature, and frank, engaging smile have won him many friends; not only among the fair sex (to whom he is a perpetual heartbeat), but also among “the fellows.” Academic Course. Hi-Y, Band, Orchestra, Student Council. RENAE ADA YOUNG 1916 Washington Avenue There’s music in the sighing of a reed; There’s music in the gushing of a nil: There’s music in all things, if men had ears: Their earth is but an echo of the sphere. —Byron “Has anyone seen the pianist?” is the common cry in the Northampton Senior High School. The pianist is none other than bright-eyed Renae who makeseveryone sway involuntarily as soon as she touches the keys of the piano. She is not only talented and fond of playing the piano but reading good books. Her favorite sports are dancing and swimming. She is not only greatly admired by all the girls but also by those of the opposite sex. Academic Course. Girl Reserves, President of the Orchestra, Dramatic Club. Girls Glee Club, “Love Pirates of Hawaii,” “Rings in the Sawdust.” HARWOOD PARRY Danielsville, Pennsylvania Gentle to others, to himself severe. —Rogers A quiet, rather serious, likeable fellow. ... is that Harwood? Likeable, yes. But quiet?. . . . Well, perhaps he is when by himself, but observation when in certain company, has exposed the fact, that his lungs are in perfect working condition. Serious? . . he is—but we know a certain “maiden,” whose presence can change his most pensive mood into one of lightheartedness, or perhaps lightheadedness would be more to the point, maybe this is due to high blood or rather high “blond” pressure; we are not sure. But his malady, whatever its cause, is only temporary, we believe, so we’re not much worried. Academic Course. Hi-Y, Operetta, “One Night in Bethlehem.”

ANTHONY T1MAR 504 East Ilth Street Why courage then! what cannot he avoided 'Twere childish weakness to lament or fear. From the “X Bar X Boys.” Anthony learned the courage, per-severence and character of men who become heroes. Underlying this admiration, Anthony has found a certain conviction that helps him in the discipline of his own life. His natural inclinations reveal a love for logical things in the study of Commercial Arithmetic, Algebra, and Grammar. To do the work required in an office in this commercial student’s desire. Baseball for physical exercise, and mathematics for the intellect are the exercises he chooses to develop and fit him for the routine required in the world of commercial activity. O yes, he takes dictation quite accurately and types well. Commercial Course. Basketball, Baseball, Football, Student Council. ALICE HARTZELL Route 2, Walnurport, Pa. Men as in no way approach so nearly to the gods in doing good to men. —Cicero Tiny—but, oh my! It has always been said that good things are concealed in small packages. After becoming thoroughly acquainted with Alice, we feel that there is much truth in at least one of the old adages. Being naturally very quiet, Alice is sometimes rather hesitant about making new friends quickly; however she is always eager to accept and return all friendly advances, making such plutonic relationships desirable and pleasant. We hear very little from her lips about any male admirers, but we’ve discovered at least one fact—she’s partial to “flaming locks and blue eyes—so we draw our own conclusions. Whatever fate may have in store for her in the future, we wish her success and happy achievement. Academic Course. Glee Club. ALBERT BILOVESKY 101 West 10th Street Happy am I; from care I’m free! Why aren’t they all contented like me! Opera of La Bayadere As student manager of football and basketball, Albert has fullfilled his obligations with admirations. To help the “Coach” with many unexpected duties is one of his hobbies. Known as the Coach’s right hand man, Albert’s silent and studious manner keeps affairs in athletics running smoothly. His shy subtle humor unexpectedly arouses mirth in a group that would be likely to become passive if he were not about. Because he is reluctant to express himself in regard to serious subjects, we know little of his wordly interests. Contentment is his continual feast; so we make note of this characteristic, too rare among us. General Course. Student Manager, “Love Pirates of Hawaii,” Rings in the Sawdust,” Class Basketball.
