In the summertime you can often find Alton at the nearest diamond playing baseball. His favorite subject is history and his favorite color is red. You can always dis- tinguish him at a distance by his bright red sweater. Alton has not decided what he wants to do after he graduates. He informs us that he does not plan to continue school, but prefers to go right to work. Course: General Activities: Track 4. ELMER R. BAER Breinigsville, R. 32 HJ. B. is a very quiet, but industrious, fellow. Not only does he remain quiet in class, but he is also quiet outside of school.

Like many of the other fellows, he is always anxious for the opening of hunting season on the first of November. Elmer tells us that he hasn't thought too much about the future as yet, but cabinet-making and wood-finishing appeal to him very much. Course: General Activities: Mixed Chorus 2: Orchestra 3, 4.
