ROBERT MILLER Bob Senior Commercial Club: 4. Here is the silent member of the senior class. As far as we know, his only dislike in school has been homework.

This future Florence Nightingale will cheer many a patient's day at Jersey City Medical Center. STELLA MYTNICK Stel Glee Club: 2, 3, 4; Basketball: 3; Senior Com- mercial Club: 4.
