CLIFFORD PHILIP GEHRING February 11, 1923 1800 St. George Avenue, Rahway Cliff, Lou Business Photography Club 2, Camera Club 3, 4, President 43 Record Board 45 Blue Book Board 4. Cliff has been with us for four years. His main ex- tra-curricular activity is photography and he has distinguished himself in that field. He is seen at sport contests taking pic- tures for the Pingry Record. He is also seen snapping pic- tures of the other seniors for the Blue Book. Besides this, he has founded and is president of the Camera Club, and is a great baseball fan. We wish Cliff the greatest success, and we feel sure he'll have it. FREDERIC S.

Sf' Princeton Tennis 3, 4g Soccer 4g Fencing 1, 2, 3g Rifle Club lg Glee Club 2, Rod and Gun Club 1, 2, 3, 45 Treasurer Dramatic Club 4g Literary Club 4, Bridge Club 33 Library Committee 4g Record Board 2, 3, 4, Editor-in-Chief 4g Class President 35 Class Treasurer 45 Orchestra 1g Blue Book 4. One of the best students ever to enter Pingry's halls, Freddy'3 has proved himself not only an outstanding scholar but a most popular classmate as well. His many activities at- test to his wholehearted interest in the life of the School, and, as Editor-in-Chief of the Record, he has been the guiding light of that publication. Athletically, F. S. has shown himself a tennis player of no mean proportion, and was a capable member of Mr. West's never-say-die soccer elite. Pingry and, to a lesser degree, Millburn High will miss his presence next year, but their loss will be Princeton's gain. Page Twenly lx 555 , xxx NRE

This year Dick was elected President of the Senior Class. He has upheld all the honors attached to this position and has also found time to partici- pate in varsity baseball and basketball. He has not let his duties as President of che Class and Chairman of the Student Council interfere with his scholastic record. Dick plans to go either to Brown or Bucknell.

ROBERT SPURR GAMBLE October 24, 1924 42 Aberdeen Road, Elizabeth Bob Cornell Football 45 Record Board 3, 4, Dramatic Club 3, 43 Dance Committee 4, Student Council 3, Bridge Club 3. Bob has been a member of Pingry from the Sixth Grade and has been going strong in and out of school life ever since. Bob, besides being prominent for his athletic prowess, is also known for his Big Noise and good-humored banter. Bob has been a mainstay on the football line on all minor teams and for the last two years on the varsity. Bob's work on the dance committee this year, and his hard work on the Record show his many talented abilities. We earnestly hope that he will be as successful and as well liked in college as he is here. Good luck, Bob. Page Nineteen

But lives near the School and has received his entire education at Pingry. This year besides being one of the prin- cipal leaders of the Dance Committee, Butler has done a fine job in helping the Pingry Players with the properties and stag- ing of the annual production, Thunder Rock. But can be found arguing with Mr. Diebolt often, but whether he wins or not he always presents a strong view. We feel that Butler will win in any profession he chooses if he keeps up the fine work he has done at Pingry. CARL EDGAR HOLMES, JR. May 24, 1924 966 Park Avenue, Elizabeth Homer Swimming Team 1, 2, 3, Captain 35 Tennis 1, 2, 3, 4, Bas- ketball 4, Captain 4g Bowling Club 2. Carl has been one of our most outstanding athletes of the last two years. He was captain of the swimming team last year and is captain of the basketball team of this year. Unfortunately, he hurt his elbow in a basketball game and has just had an operation to remove a splinter which was causing complications. A speedy recovery is expected. In spite of his injury, Carl has had a full year and has led his team through a tough season with an undaunted spirit. In addi- tion to his being an athlete, he is also an extremely popular student with both the young and old. Page Tufelzly-one
