RICHARD SOMOGYI Rich came to us at the middle of his Junior year, and made quite a hit with every- one here, as is evidenced by his having been elected vice-president of the senior class. We would be even more awed by his accom- plishment if the election had been anything but a popularity poll. Rich, the little minister, plans to go to Ursinus College for his studies. QThat's really why he came here, but it didn't work.j Beep, beep! JAMES SOLOMOS This year Jim becamekalmost inaccessible, for he moved to the Dean's house, where he leads a quiet f?j uninterrupted life. We have been shown that this is contributive to good scholastic work but we fear that he has been somewhat shut off from the activities of the school. We aren't sure what Jim plans to do when he graduates, but we are sure that it will be a real success. fThis kind of guy can be successful doing anything.j XNGTQ 0 ' ' 0 Nunn 4?

First, he established a new, all-time record for driving between here and Peddie. We thought for a while that the coach would never make it. Second, he holds the thanks of all for his kind help in seeing that we didn't get too many de- merits last year. We are sure that Steve will have success in college Qif it is subsidized by Pontiacj and in all his future endeavors. 32

Lee Sharlin Among Lee's cultural pursuits are wine, women, and song fwell, wine and song, any- wayj. Anyone that knows Lee will certainly remember him for his one outstanding extra- curricular activity, sleeping! A true scho- lar, WE are sure that he will succeed in his chosen field at the University of Miami. Bradley Sary Breaking the hearts of his female admirers fnamely, his motherj, Brad decided to come to Pennington to study UQ. All kidding aside, Brad, has done much in his short stay here and from all signs we would venture to say that he just ,might get into college. Being a member of Lindberg hall, he has leamed to do push-ups, if nothing else. Actually these push-ups showed in his performances with our football and basketball teams. We wish him luck, both academically and athletically, in the college of his choice. XNGTQ Vet? Worn 'X xl 4' da F 5' if 'Is IE Q J' 5 ' o U0 .4 1? Robert Smith Big Bob who comes to us from Lambertville has become a true Penntonian in his four years at Pennington. He has held many school offices and has been active in sports. The swimming team certainly will miss him. We are sure Mr. Hawthorne will remem- ber Bob for his outstanding performance in the Physics lab, if you can call it a performance. Good luck Bobf! 31

Eric Stromberger Eric, who comes to us from the wild West, is a prime example of shocking accomplishment. As Mr. Fixit of Goorley Hall, Eric has established himself as the electrician laureate of the school. He has a good time working on our radios and hi -fi's, and we hope he won't electrocute himself before others become aware of his fine work. If Eric can keep up his fine record throughout college, he will be able to retum to California and do his best to make it into a useful state. xNGTo 'A 'Er-yy-v Norm X as s 0 4?

Well, anyhow, Steve has become one of the best- known, best-liked boys on campus during his three years here. This Summer, Steve decided to defect to Madison Avenue and be- come a Public Relations man. This is all very fine, but we hope he will learn to keep his relationships a bit more private. We know that Steve will make a great success of his life if he ever recovers from the Christmas vacation he spent with Martin. 33 Philip Sullivan Last year, the North was invaded again by Phil Sullivan, a confirmed rebel from North Carolina. Typical of the calm pace of the South, Rebel is a smooth, easy- going person who enjoys serious discussion as much as a good joke. As a lineman for the Redmen, Phil re- ported late for practice this year, to fill a serious gap in the football team caused by the confirmed smokers! Even with his late start, Reb was a definite aid to the efforts of the squad. Although we have certainly tried, we have not been able to Yankee-ize the lad, as is shown in his desire to return to the sane atmosphere of the South for his col- lege years. Oh well, you can't win them all!
