ALBERT GREGORY BAUER August 5, 1927 932 Pennsylvania Ave., Union, N. J. Al Undecided F ive years at Pingry Rifle Club III, IV, Chapel Activities Committee Vlg Inter- national Relations Club VI. During his five years at Pingry, Al has become one of the best liked members of the class. He will long be remembered by both faculty and students for his witty remarks and sense of humor, especially in the classrooms. All of us are looking forward to class day exercises, where he can demonstrate his imitating abilities to the whole school. His ever-ready sense of humor not only holds forth in school, but is prominent at parties, where he is always one of the bright spots of the evening. To see him at one of these parties or football games, one would never think of him as a professed woman-hater. Al has always kept up with the news, and his desire for more has led him to join the International Relations Club. One of his other achievements is the Rifle Club, where for two years he has distinguished himself as a crack UH shot. A1 is still undecided as to his plans after graduation from our happy halls, but whatever they may be, we all feel assured that his fine personality and wonderful sense of humor will carry him a long way in life. Best of luck, Al. ALEXANDER ALBERT BIBBY, IR. November 13, 1927 50 Sayre Street, Elizabeth, N. J. Alex,' Undecided One year at Pingry Although Alex came to Pingry only in February of last year, his easy-going ways soon garnered him friends. In his classes Alex had to keep working steadily, but kept up in his Form. During activities, he could most easily be found churning the waters of the swimming pool in his preparation for a meet. Around the school we didn't hear much from Alex, but we know with his modest ways and his assuredness that he will do well in the world. ski? ik irikik

Al Army Air Corps Four years at Pingry Baseball IV, Vg Dance Committee,V, VI, Home Room President IV, Vg Rifle Club III, Varsity Club V, VI, Foot- ball VI. Though he didn't enter our class until the Freshman year, Al has had a most successful career at Pingry. He has consistently maintained a high scholastic level, while socially and athletically he has also excelled. One of the four boys in the class to attain positions on the baseball team in their Sophomore years, Al has held down the Hhot cornerw for the last two seasons and would have done so again this year had he not graduated in February. On the football field, Alis speed and determination again accounted for a permanent varsity berth, this time at half-back. Al gets along splendidly with the fair sex, but fortunately for .the rest of us has restricted his activities during the past year. Always one of the more popular members of the class, A1 has had no trouble keeping himself surrounded with friends. There is no question that Al will succeed in whatever he attempts and the whole class wishes him the best of luck. EDWIN BAIME August 7, 1927 52 Wilbur Ave., Newark, N. I. 4'Ed Undecided Two years at Pingry International Relations Club Vlg Dramatic Club VI. Ed is one of the very few boys who have the unquestion- able honor of living in the wilds of Newark and hiking in from there every morning. He is usually seen drawing car- icatures of the masters or anyone else he takes a fancy to. At any of the dances that Ed attends unescorted, you will find him portraying a '6Wolf,' or giving jitterbug lessons. Seriously, however, Ed leans towards the happy-go-lucky side of life, and although much of his life is a puzzle, what we hear from him between Monday and Friday is enough to assure us that he doesn't hibernate over the weekends! The class wishes him success in his chosen profession.

It was two and one-half years ago that Bob entered the halls of Pingry. Ever since that time, however, his good nature and friendly smile have been part of us all. Bob has fully earned the title of being one of the most obliging members of our class. We also must not neglect the fact that Bob is one of our intellectual students, especially in the field of higher mathematics. Another one of Bobis many accomplishments is acting. His performance in '4Our Townu last year was one of the memorable parts of the play! We all wish to extend to you, Bob, our best wishes for good luck at Rochester. We realize, however, that Pingry's loss with be Rochester's gain. .HAROLD HAMBLIN BRACHER, JR. I une 4, 1927 504 Colonial Ave., Westfield, N. J. Hal, Brach Cornell One year at Pingry Although Brach has been here for only a year he has become a respected member of our class. Hal was one of the major spark-plugs in the Advanced Algebra class, Mr. West and he would get into long discussions along the lines of higher mathematics far above us lower mortals. Brach wants to go to Cornell, but the services probably will interrupt his future education in college for a while. Hal hails from Westfield, and is one of the accelerated group of Seniors. He graduated with departmental honors in mathematics. Brach has some real ability and we expect to see him come out on top in anv and everything he does.
