WALTER S. PYTKO 3314 Almond Street, Philadelphia Born January 19, 1901 Roman Catholic High School, 1919 ‘Pit “Peregrinating Pytko” was here and there both at the same time. At the beginning of the hour he would be serenely catching the pearls of wisdom as they fell from the lips of our learned professors. Then, presto! he was gone! He was “Houdini,” “The Vanishing American” and “The Phantom” all rolled into one. While in class Pytko was so quiet that when he went out we missed his silence. Walt was the outstanding orator, and the acknowledged leader of the Polish people in Philadelphia. If he is as well liked in court as he was in class Pit ought to make a high hatting average with the judiciary. LOUIS A. .1. ROBBINS 519 S. Melville Street, Philadelphia Born November 30, IXO'i South Philadelphia High School, 1910 University of Pennsylvania, ltd 1. B.S. in C.E. Lou Lou, the silent realtor, was a quiet, reserved individual, and like the celebrated geyser, he was “Old Faithful when it came to attendance at school. Though his original intention was to follow the transit he decided to specialize in the mysteries of real property. But law, real estate and engineering pale into insignificance when Mrs. Robbins and the two charming little Robbins (not of the feathered variety) enter the scene, for they are Lou’s confessed weaknesses.

NATHANIEL NATIIANSON 125 Wingohocking Street, Philadelphia Born January ( . 1899 Northeast High School, 1910 Philadelphia School of Pedagogy, 1918 Temple University, 1922, B.S., in Ed. Graduate School, University of Penn. “Nate” Nate's moustache was the last word in sartorial elegance. It measured 4 3-16 inches from tip to tip (both waxed, of course). Nate was a member of the “Anvil Chorus” of the Record Committee, where his innate cleverness proved most valuable. Among his successful simultaneous activities were: expounding history in the Roosevelt High School; commanding a regiment of National Guards, and keeping his classmates in a jovial humor. GEORGE W. PHILLIPS 1028 Kerpcr Street, Lawndale, Philadelphia Born July 13. 1900 South Philadelphia High School, 1918 Strayer’s Business College, 1919 T. U. Real Estate Conveyancing Course, 1920 University of Pennsylvania Admitted to Bar, 1925 “Phil” Will any of us ever forget the witty interpolations in the class notes as recorded and particularly revised by Phil? Aside from being 49.99 per cent owner of the Rosephil Publishing Co., Unltd., he found time to win a paltry $350 in Limerick contests. George was the closest thing to perpetual motion the world has ever seen. His impersonations of the faculty and some of his classmates brightened up what would have otherwise been many a dull moment while awaiting the arrival of our occasionally delayed professors. As a member of the Docket Staff he was (to quote no less a personage than Leon Herman Rose, himself) “The Editor’s greatest help.” 59

LEON HERMAN ROSE 330 Penn Street, Camden, N. J. Horn May 1, 1899 South Philadelphia High School, 1017 Philadelphia School of Pedagogy, 1020 Gratz College, Phila.. 1015-1919 City College of New York “Rabbit” Ye Editor-in-Chicf himself! Leon Herman Rose, Esquire—an indefatigable atom, if ever there was one. This Class “Docket” is a monument to Leon’s tireless efforts. His plans, ideas and thoughts are saturated throughout every detail of this literary work. Before the completion of the Delaware River Bridge, Leon was the legal link which connected Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Rabbie lived up to his name, too; he walked home every Friday evening, and Professor Wolfe gave him five exams on Friday afternoon so that Rosie’s “Sabbath” would not be violated. HARRY ROSENBLl’M 5033 Hazel Avenue, Philadelphia Horn March Ik, 1899 South Philadelphia High School, 1018 Hebrew Education Society, 1017 Admitted to Bar, 1025 “Rosey” He was our Secretary in the Senior and underclass years. As a “court reporter” he had no peer, and in reporting the lectures was often a sentence or two ahead of the prof. With his pal, Phillips, he served on the Docket Committee. The only question ever raised by Harry in Mr. Hamilton’s class was one that to him was of such momentous importance that lie asked it at least a dozen times per lecture, viz: “What time is it?” 01
