RICHARD ALLEN HARTKOPF .luly 2, 1931 718 Midland Boulevard, Union, N. .l. Dick Cornell, Vermont Five Years At Pingry Football, V, VIQ Basketball, V, VI, Band, Vg Glee Club, IV, Record Board, V, VI, Spanish Club, VI. 1 One of the more quiet members of the class, Dick is very conscientious about his work. Even at recess, he can often be found studying in the library or some other place. His abilities are not, however, confined to the scholastic side of Pingry. He is well known for his pass-receiving on the football team, and his scoring record on the bas- ketball court. Dick is the brunt of many jokes, but he always shows the same swell sportsman- ship that characterizes him on the athletic field. With his conscientiousness and all around ability, he will undoubtedly make a name for himself in any field he chooses. T. KENNADY HESTON, JR. February 7, 1931 325 Prospect Avenue, Cranford, N. J. Teke Princeton, R.P.l. Two Years at Pingry Football, V, VI, Captain, VI g Track, VI g Swim- ming, V, VI 5 Dance Committee, VI 5 Spanish Club, Vg Athletic Executive Committee, Vlg Record Board, VI, Business Manager, VI. Teke's congenial attitude and fine character have combined to make him one of the best liked fellows in school. Other than his athletic prowess and capable leadership, shown by his election to football captain after but one year at Pingry, Teke has applied himself diligently on the Record Board and Dance Committee. On a week- end Teke may be found on either end of Harry Hall,s Manesquan to South Orange date bureau. Whether Teke chooses Princeton or R.P.I. we are certain that with his fine record he will make a success in any career he chooses. 1949 Page twenty-five

SENIURS Page twenty-four HAROLD THOMPSON HALL, JR. January 3, 1931 7 Chicago Blvd., Sea Girt, N. J. Bud, Bub Lafayette Two Years At Pingry Football, V, VI, Basketball, V, VI, Track, V, VI, Captain VI, Record, VI. Although he has been at Pingry but two years, Harold has established himself as one of its best athletes and most popular students. In the sports department, Bud is one of the few three letter- men in the class. Undoubtedly the crowning point of his athletic activities was when his fellow cindermen elected him as their captain. Socially Bub may be seen at many parties and dances, including his escapades down at the old Jersey shore. Bud will continue his education at Lafay- ette where he will undoubtedly reach the same enviable heights he did here at Pingry. WILLIAM FREDRIC HANZL July 5, 1929 4 Central Avenue, Cranford, N. J. Binx Nichols Three Years at Pingry Class Council, V, VI 5 Track, V, VI. Bill is probably the most easy-going fellow in the senior class. This characteristic has helped him to take many things philosophically. Binx has a fine sense of humor and is certainly the most obliging fellow in the class. Bill is known for his big appetite, but this is put to use when he demonstrates his strength as a shotputter on the track team. As a result of his popularity, he has been elected to the Class Council for the past two years. One of the fellows heading for Nichols, Binx has given an indication of a promising future by his past performances.

SENIUBS Page twenty-six WILLIAM HAMILTON HILLS March I7, 1930 2141 Linden Ave., Westfield, N. J. Bill, .I it Pennsylvania Five Years At Pingry Basketball, IV, V, VI, Captain. VI 5 Soccer, V, VI, Class Council, III, IV, VI, Dance Committee, VI, Ring Committee, V, Athletic Committee, VI, Spanish Club, V. Bill is one of Pingry's best liked students, six foot tall and every inch a grand fellow. Though unassuming and modest, J it impresses everyone with his sincere earnestness and high sense of fairness. Being a fine athlete, he has added much to Pingry's basketball and soccer teams, and still finds time for extensive committee and club work. His election to Class Council for three of his four years in the Upper School further proves his popularity. Bill will go far in whatever field of endeavor he chooses. A fine friend and jolly good fellow. What else could one ask? PETER BABCOCK JONES December 20, 1930 190 Oakridge Avenue, Summit, N. J. Pete Amherst Three Years At Pingry Class President, V, VI, Student Council, IV, V, VI, President, VI, Tennis, IV, V, VI, Captain, V, VI, Athletic Executive Committee, V, VI, President, VI , Dramatic Club, V, VI. During the three years Pete has been in Pingry, he has become one of the most popular and most respected boys here. Few ever approach the very enviable record which he has compiled. The com- bined facts that he was elected president of his class in the fifth and sixth forms and captain of the tennis team for the same two years proved the faith which his classmates had in his ability to lead. Peter's future plans center around Am- herst, and his days there and in later life will undoubtedly be bright and full of accomplish- ment.
