1024 THE MIRAGE 1924 CHARLES WHITE SNYDER Classical Course Literary Team, '24g Dramatic Clubg De- bating Clubg Mirage Staff. Nickname- Chuck He was the mildest maiznered man Every class has its orator and this is ours! We call him ours for we are really proud to have such a bright young fellow in our midst. He is a brilliant conversationalist with an er- ratic wit that displays itself when you're least expecting it. There are so many things to say about Chuck, we really don't know where to begin. Sufiice to say, he's a friend worth having. Girls, this is leap year and Chuck hasn't a girl! BERTHA MABEL MENSCH Commercial Course Leap Year Club. Nickname- Bird Youth holds no society with grief Ah! here is one peppy, happy, genial girl flowing over and sparkling with mirth, she can even give repartee to the wise sayings of our estimable professor, Mr. Litzenberg, with Whom she is a great favorite. When Bertie starts giggling, everybody forgets his troubles and giggles with her. It just can't be helped. She surely will make someone a nice Stenog. when she goes out of R. H. S., with diploma in hand. DONALD NIEDERGALL Scientific Course Senior Football Team: Dramatic Club, '24g Choral Club, '24. N ickname- Don What sweet delight a quiet life affords! Don is one of the most studious boys in the class. Around the school he seems to be very quiet but we dare say he is concealing something from us. Don's singing is far superior to that of Caruso. We wonder why? He has had some experience with the birch and rule. Poor kids! We feel sure Donald will succeed wherever he goes. R H S Severiteen

1924 THE MIRAGE 1924 WILLIAM MURRAY Scientific Course Football, '23: l'rs-sidvnt ol' the Class ol' 'Z43 Gym Team. Nickname- Billy Just to be naughty Billy's popularity was plainly shown in our Junior year when he was elected president of our class. Since then he has lead us through many successful ventures which have made a name, for the class, that will go down in his- tory. He has been a hard worker, and in a large measure the success of the class has been due to him. He also found time to go out for football and won his letter during his Senior year. His academic standard is one of which no one would have cause for shame. His pleasing personality, coupled with his great capacity for work, will make him a leader in the world, as he has been in school. The best of luck, Billy. R H S S'i.z'tccn,

1024 THE MIRAGE 1024 MADALYN ISABELLE DAVIS Commercial Course Nickname- Madge History Club: Leap Year Club. She finds the joys of heaven here on earth Madge proves the old saying Laugh and grow fat, yet she is not what we might term our hefty member. Rain or storm, snow or sleet, always she trudges bravely up the hill towards our dear Alma Mater, that wonderful seat of learning where we, from little boys and girls, have grown up into strong minded men and women. Madge's prophecies as to her own future are sort of vague when uttered from her own lips, but nevertheless tea-towels and rolling pins might be handy to have. So take our advice, don't get left, always be right. JOSEPH HEIDEGER Commercial Course Orchestra, '21,,'22, '23, '24: Chorus, '23, '24: Mirage Staff: R. O. B. C'lub: Dra- matic Club, '23, '2-1: 'Senior Football Team: Associate Editor, Fly Paper. Nickname- Snooky Watch this bird Snooky belongs to the Bridgewater gang which forms a small percentage of our stu- dent body. Besides being an A-I student, he has raised his melodious voice in the chorus which represents R.H.S. in the Geneva Con- tests, and has been a great factor in the suc- cess of the Class of '24, It is certain he will always rank as one of the bright lights of Bridgewater, as he has been of Rochester High School. ANNA FRANCES MORTIMER Commercial Course History Club: Bachelor Girls' Club. Nickname- Ann Give thy thoughts 'ho tongue Ann is another of our quiet unassuming girls. We think she would make a good teacher, for she looks as though she would ex- press her wrath mildly, and would have a good amount of patience. It is a true but sad fact that we never become acquainted with the people who may make a good friend until it is too late. A dignified expression, a lady-like walk, and a good nature ought to insure a good position for Anna in the future. R H S Eighteen
