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

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

THE 1938 FRANK FYKE Campy Future: Undecided 812 VVinchester Avenue, Hillside Mechanics Club, '38g Football, '38. Fyke has been with us a long time and has attempted many things the outcome of which is still doubtful. He has a method this ownj for everything he does and some- times, to his surprise, it works. His chief interest is in the lab', where he may be found creating something with a piece of glass tubing or other equipment. Not a word has been said about his future, but we hope Cappy,' will meet success along the road, 4 V AL'I lali GAMBLL, JR. VValt Future: Cornell 4-2 Aberdeen Road, Elizabeth Orchestra, '35-ig Glee Club, '38q Dance Committee, '38g Foot- ball, '3Tg Fencing, ,35. VValt has long been known for his classic remarks in the class room. After long, tedious years of struggle wc now go to class just to hear VValt pass judgment on certain phases of his study. Outside of his school inter- ests. swing music and a guitar are nearest VValt,s heart. He left the class of women-haters in the late Autumn and since then has become quite popular. VVitl1 that fact in mind, we know his years at Cornell will be well spent. 5 U61
