Activities: F.ditor-in-Chief of Record Staff; Bow) man, popular vote; Chairman Banquet Committee; Toastmaster at Graduation Banquet; Award Committee. Each class must have its little busybody, poking his nose into everything and Joe is it. However, he seems to know what he is talking about (sometimes). He is the literary luminary of our class, in addition to being our commercial chemistry information bureau. So many-sided is Joe that it would take up too much space to tell all about the different facets, so a few remarks will not be amiss. At one moment his ambition seems to be to go on the stage, for whenever anyone wants the words to the latest song they see Joe. Then he is the comm. chem.. telling about Lewis Bros.’ white lead. Later he is one of the litterati, discussing new books and so on, ad infinitum. However, we feel sure that Joe will make his way far into this world. Kermit was the butt of many jokes and pranks played by his classmates, but he always took them with a good-natured grin, as he took his nickname, which was bestowed upon him by his fellow colleagues. “Hank” was a hard worker and tried hard to attain his Ph.G. It was a pleasure to work with Kermit, for he always had a ready “wise-crack.” KERMIT J. BERMAN “Hank Wetzel” 526 Tree Street A hermit dwelt far. far away. Disdaining a hie fellow men. His hands were long, he never would play So d smal wax his shadowy den. Hobby: Sports (outdoor and indoor). Future: Great Ph. G. (6'G ).

To (rvx Nj « r a lecturer and man of industry. His lectures shall always he a source of knowledge and wisdom. A silver-haired, kind old gentleman, one named Dr. Fisher, took up the reins of Materia Medica. From him we learned of new cures for old diseases. It will he remembered that upon his return from the South, the class presented him with a Sheaffer lifetime writing set. He appreciated this deeply. We benefited greatly through his exhaustive knowledge of his subject. The next gentleman, who hailed from Haiti-more, was in a class by himself. He made this trip every week to give his demonstrated lectures in biologic assaying, which, to say the least, were unique and very interesting. Each week Dr. Fittinger brought a different animal, some being frogs, roosters, gold fish and a dog, on which some drug was assayed. We shall never forget the throbbing of a frog’s heart, or the “bluing of a While Leghorn cock’s comb. or the incising of a dog’s throat. Time was flying hurriedly and was waiting for no one. A few exams, a couple loads of worry and C.hristmas holidays were received with warm welcome. The finishing stretch lay just ahead of us. On our return came the installation of a new procedure, namely the granting of exemptions from final examinations lo those having an average of 80 in each subject. This was indeed a pleasant surprise. Many strove harder now to attain exemption and subsequent graduation. On March 10 the (’.lass of ’28 was invited by Smith, Kline cV: French, wholesalers, to inspect their laboratories at Delaware Avenue and Foplar Street. Everyone was present at Dr. ('ameron-s bidding. The tour was just chock full of interesting things in which we saw theory applied to practice. The visit wound up with a colorful banquet given in our honor at which Dr. Mineheart and our president spoke. We pause for a moment in retrospection. Our classmates and protessors we shall very likely see no more. The flowers; are soon to he plucked and transplanted into different communities. They shall all he memories the commencement, the alumni banquet, the congratulations. S. E. Zieffkrt, H. M. Fillek.

Hobby: Seems to be bulet dodging. Future: Ph. G. Activities: Class Editor. Record Staff. “Nick was the brave man of our class. He had to be so that he was able to duck bullets as he did. But when it came to work in the laboratory Bert sure did his stuff. His pills and pharmaceuticals were par excellence and his help certainly pulled some of the poorer ones through. He was rarely heard in class, but whatever he said was u-ually correct. How d dja do it. Nick? WILLIAM BOBBIN 3841 Poplar Street So lit fir w kmw I O It. Sire William. Hobby: He couldn't condescend to have one—child’s play, dontcha know. Future: P. 1). Activities: Member of the “Green Key Ring. A quiet sort of a chap, always self-possessed and able to rise to any occasion in the classroom, seems to describe Bobbin pretty accurately. A member of the three, or is it thirteen, musketeers who seem to have for their motto The Musketeers Must-Get-There, William seems well on his way to “get-there —graduation, of course. We are sure that Bobbin will make more than a success in the business world due to his se’f-confidence, which, we feel certain, is based on a solid foundation. Be it as it may, we wish him plenty of luck.
