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.

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

PETER JOHN MARSHALL KING January 23, 1931 15 Highland Avenue, Short Hills, N. J. Pete Dartmouth, Amherst Two Years At Pingry Football, VI, Tennis, V, VI, Manager, VI g Athletic Executive Committee, VI, Glee Club, V, VI. Although Pete's stay at Pingry has been a short one, it has been very successful. One of the better students scholastically, he has not confined him- self strictly to his studies. While it is evident by looking at his record that Pete likes more than one sport, his favorite is tennis. He was a member of last year's undefeated team and served in the capacity of player-manager for this yearls team. He and his brother are an impressive pair on any court. Whether Pete goes to Dartmouth or Am- herst, his varied interests and perserverance will always be his aids to success. LINDSAY RUSSELL LAIRD May 10, 1931 17 Morraine Place, Short Hills, N. J. Lin Q Princeton Five Years At Pingry Record Board, V, VI, French Club, V, VI, Secretary, VI g Tennis, V, VI. Entering the class in the Eighth Grade, Lin got a chance to become accustomed to Pingry before the class moved into the Upper School. Lin has always been one of the better-ranking students scholastically and, because of this, he hopes to enter Princeton. Following in his brother's foot- steps, Lin has become one of the sure winners on the tennis squad and was a member of last year's undefeated team. His genial attitude will undoubtedly win him additional friends to the scores he has here at Pingry when he leaves these fair halls this June. 1949 Page twenty-seven
