He left us for a short time to return to complete his course at Pingry. Horace, as most of us know him, is usually found out on the athletic Held or in the gym engaged in some sport. He plays any game well and has been a fine leader. VVe used to hear about his becoming' a doctor, but now he intends to take a P.G. and try his hand at journalism in College. 6 JOHN SIMPSON LLDRIDGE Jack, Herman Future: Princeton 36 Hillside Road, Elizabeth Glcc Club, '35, '36, '37, '38g Student Council, '35, '36g Foot- hall, '36, '37, Caplaiu, '37q Basketball, '38, Baseball, '36, '37, '38, Athletic Executive Committee, '38. Jack is without doubt the Samson of our class. Though he lacks the head of hair the Biblical character had, it's a sure bet he could tie him in a test of strength. He has been the toughest man on the football line for two years and is well known for his one-fingered tackles. Unlike many a good athlete, Jack has little or no trouble with his marks. Princeton is his next stop. 4 no

Jolmnie is in a class with Blumberg when it comes to a good argument. Always an honor student, John should have little trouble in college. His objective at Harvard is a medical education. Jolm. in Pingry, is the most versatile boy with fcw exceptions. His marks and his athletic ability have stood him in good stead with his fellow classmen. 4 38 RALPH FRENCH Italphie Future: Columbia 1155 East Jersey Street, Elizabeth Chess Club, '36, '37, '38g Rifle Club, '35, '36, '37, Camera Club, '35, '36g Soccer, '37, Swiuuuingr, '38q Fencing, '35, '36, Ralph is our test barometer. If he complains of ill health or a headache, there is a test coming in one of our classes that afternoon, or if he doesn't show up for chapel, there is a test that morning. French has taken many Hribbingsu and taken more than his share. He takes them all good-naturedly and it hardly disturbs him. VVe hcar many words from Ralph on hlinnesota and Michigan U. but he is now contented with Columbia. 4 U51
