Elizabeth Yaple and Jane Vesey are trading positions on The Times, so as to better prepare themselves for major positions which they may hold later. Libby Yaple and Mary Jane Stults are usually seen whispering in a corner planning some dark conspiracy. Bob Knepple is a friendly fellow who is always willing to lend a helping hand. Now we know why Robert Feustel's eyes are so twinkly- the twinkle is the reflection of the stars he is eternally gazing at. John Brubaker is also interested in the constellations. Who knows, he may even discover a heretofore unknown planet. Louise Frost is the sweet girl who relieves parched throats at the games with ice cream and coca cola. Many of these freshmen started their high school career in a scholarly fashion. By virtue of their hard work the names of Elizabeth Barrett, Charles Bell, Mary Angela Berkey, Vir- ginia Beverforden, Dorothy Bremer, Wayne Brown, John Bru- baker, Grace Butler, Helen Eggers, Melvin Eggers, Martha Jane Engeler, Robert Feustel, Louise Frost, Jean Funk, Martha Garrison, Winifred Gearhart, Edith Geiger, Esther Gerding, Thelma Greek, Bob Gross, Lillian Henning, Anna Louise Hos- tetler, Jane Johnson, Virginia Judd, Mary Jane Kelsey, Helen Koldeway, Charles Lautzenheiser, Richard Lendeman, Harold Meigs, Herbert Merrill, Jack Mueller, Jean Rensenhouse, Ron- ald Staley, Richard Storr, Billie Stracler, Nell Jean Thomas, and Nancy Yapp were listed on the honor roll. Meterites and U. S. A. enticed numerous freshman girls, and likewise, Wranglers, the Glee clubs, orchestra, band, Torch Club, and the Wo-Ho-Ma Club drew a goodly number of the class. Upon glancing back at the first year of citizenship at South Side High School, we find that Robert Stone, who was elected president, guided the members of the class safely through that first rather hard and trying year. Charles Benz and Bob Hull were elected vice-president and secretary. Jean Farrel, Dor- othy Hosier, and Margaret Gakle composed the Social Council. Thoughts of the freshman picnic still bring smiles of remin- iscence. After the aforementioned freshmen had played base- ball and picked flowers to their hearts, content, they refreshed themselves with delectable hot dogs, beans, pickles, and ice cream. The G. A. A. offers girls the opportunity of indulging their love of sports. Many availed themselves of this opportunity. Page One Hundred Three

Bob Stone was in general charge of the arrangements for the affair. Melvin Eggers had charge of the tickets, and Jane Vesey had charge of the pub- licity. The planning of refreshments and decora- tions was left up to Agnes Blosser and Maxine Davenport. Musical chairs and other games af- forded entertainment for the guests. Then they all trooped to the cafeteria where they devoured ice cream and cake. After that, those craving ex- ercise retired to the gymnasium where they trip- ped the light, fantastic toef' Miss Perkins and Mr. Vvilson, the advisers and sponsors of the class, helped to make this annual party a success. Louis Hoffman, Allen Collins, and Richard Storr are depended upon by the student body to lead them in yells, and their conhdence is not misplaced, as these boys have plenty of upepf' Virgil Gerber has again been proclaimed the shortest boy in the school, and the co-eds, not to be outdone, have pronounced the 'Qbig-littlel' girl of the G.

Robert Parrish Lionel Schwan Junior Rippe James Thompson Evelyn Schwartz Hugo Winterrowd FRE HMA OFFICIALS When the freshman class of 1931 elected Robert Par- rish as their president, they seemed to know what they were about, as Bob seems to be showing that he is a leader in many things. He has started by making the honor roll both semesters and by being chosen to the Booster club and by having a position on the Times staff. Bob has had an excellent helper in his duties, Lionel Schwan, who was elected vice-president of the class. He was also chairman of the games committee at the an- nual freshman party. Junior Rippe was chosen to keep the records of the class of 1934. 1-Ie was in charge of the ticket committee for the party. Evelyn Schwartz, James Thompson, and Hugo Win- terrowd were elected to the executive council. They were the heads of the refreshment, publicity, and decor- ation committees, respectively, and were assisted by Martha Suter, Jane Tolan, and Robert Goldstine. With such a group in charge of the various commit- tees, it is no wonder that the freshman party went over so well this year. So many were present that the party had to move from the cafeteria to the gym. In order to get acquainted with their classmates with whom they will go through the next three years, various get-ac- quainted games were played. Hand-shaking contests and relay races with match boxes on noses were the features. After a grand march through all the dark halls and up and down South Side's many inclines, the yearlings had refreshments of pumpkin pie, cider, and ice cream. Two-hundred-fifty first-year students attended this party. South Side has some famous freshmen with her this year. This year Dan Zehr set the wor1d's backstroke indoor swimming record for boys. Morris Neuman, one of South Side's yell leaders, played on the R. K. O. vaudeville circuit previous to entering high school. Thus South Side claims at least two nation-famed freshmen, and the rest have three more years to prove their abilities. Donald Powell has made an excellent start by show- ing himself an outstanding football player. Don was the first freshman ever to make the team. Page Cne Hundred Four
