' - ALBERT RUSZCZYK. Corky leads a very scientific life. He was president of that intellectual group the Science Club; his favorite study is chemistry; and during vacation he takes his breathing exercises playing indoor baseball. JAMES SABEE. Jim is an excellent history student (so we have been told). H r r )- i L i i.i !. ' it t -j -- . famous fo r his smart comebacks, or what have you S.C.A. cashier and tried his hand at chess. ? He has served as an MILDRED SADLON. A few years from now, Millie hopes to be instructing her own physical education class. German and G.A.A. take up some of her spare moments at present. EUNICE SANDERHOFF. Sandy has a terrific time keeping her correspondence from getting mixed up. The wrong boy is always getting the wrong letter! German Club, G.A.A., Audubon, Wichaka, Student Council, and the Kipi Staff serve to keep her very busy. WALTER SATTLER. This individual has set for himself the not so small task of swim- ming the Atlantic Ocean. A playboy he will be if all goes well, for that will coincide nicely with his favorite sport — flirting. BETTY SAWYER. Bett has taken chorus to help toward attaining her ambition to become a better singer than Rosa Ponselle. Her interests are unrelated. She is a member of Tri Alpha, enjoys dancing, and likes French best of all her studies. with his sister (?} between his favorite he likes least, Advanced Algebra 2. It CHESTER M. SCHINSKE. Chetter walks classes, band and chemistry, and the one may be just training for football. JAMES SCHLEVENSKY. Jim tagged around after the basketball team for his entire stay at Park as manager. The Cubs will someday be honored by his managership too he tells us. RUTH SCHROEDER. Ruthie takes an interest in the manly sports and yet aspires to be a mannequin. She has the required intelligence (honor student), but food is her weakness. French was a snap for her, and she headed Senior Wichaka. DOROTHY JANE SCHUBERT. Dodie goes in for many and various high schools — Park is her fourth in four years. She joined the Kipi Staff and Wichaka soon after her arrival here, and decided she liked everything about Park — especially the boys. CARL SCHULZ. This dark boy is one of the most promising members of the ad- vanced art class. Several evenings of the week he spends in the art room drawing for the Kipi, and other evenings at Cartoon Club and Rifle Club, of which he was president. FRANCES SCHULZ. Fran is a busy girl. She writes the minutes of last month ' s council meeting, proof reads the Beacon, worked on last year ' s Kipi, and even then is an honor student. We don ' t know how she does it, but she also finds time for swimming, tennis, the boys, and Effie. RICHARD SCHULZ. I am God ' s gift to the girls, says Dick. And most girls seem to agree with him too. He ' s that tall flashy basketball star who made himself the idol of Park students and basketball fans. MARY ELIZABETH SCOON. Scooner, the Kipi ' s associate editor, was elected to the National Honor Society while a Junior A, has been on the Honor Roll every semester, and has belonged to Wichaka, Audubon, and Library Clubs. There are two habits she can ' t conquer — dropping things and arguing with Ernest. ■ ' ,. ■. -» ■ ■ ' SENIOR A ' S »■ . 28

ROBERT PRIDEAUX. Bob came down south from Horlick and succeeded in adapting himself to our atmosphere. Although he spends most of his time in his tennis shoes. he does manage to keep up in his studies, though he says it ' s no snap. VERNA K. RASMUSSEN. Verna has chosen secretarial work as the occupation she wants to follow. We are sure she should be successful, for she is con- scientious in all work she now undertakes. VERNA M. RASMUSSEN. Verna ' s an active R girl and G.A.A. officer. Basketball, dancing, and gym work help keep her in trim. She hopes to direct a gym class herself some day. JOSEPHINE RECUPERO. Joe can say as many words in a minute as Vincent Lopez can play notes on the piano. Her chief interests are found in Latin, basketball, and chorus. Then, too, she has been on the Honor Roll. CHARLES RETERT. If it isn ' t in dramatics class, it is in the Student Council that you ' ll hear him seriously speaking. Retert climaxed his rhetorical activities at Park by play- ing the lead in Nathan Hale. We still wonder how Nina Beth came to play opposite him. LUCILLE REINKE. Maybe it has been fairly hard for Lucille to keep awake during school hours, but nevertheless, she has been an honor student (she must not have been sleeping all the time). Lucille excels in German, a subject that she thoroughly enjoys. RAY RHEINSCHMIDT. Greek gods dwell not in myths alone—!! Ray possesses Apollo ' s physique and so forth and wants to travel as far as Hermes did. He has been an enthusiastic member of the Rifle Club, and has proved himself an ice skater of no littie ability. JOHN RIDER. John was one of the students who transferred from Horlick. His favorite study, so he says, is history! He is one of Park ' s studious members who talk but little, but he knows whereof he speaks when he does. Enough nice things can ' t be said about Gwen. T 5 s and honors, she was I , in of the Wichaka i n d d be r h e r as ' ■ ' i .■ pretty heroine in M i d - GWENDOLYN ROBERTS, one of her numerous offit football banquet last fall, summer Night ' s Dream? IRMA ROGNSVOOG. The radio holds no little interest for Irma. When she isn ' t listening to it, she Is reading, or maybe practicing for the chorus of which she has been a member since she came to Park. JOHN ROHAN. John sits up nights figuring how he can get more sleep, probably the reason he falls into the hand of Morpheus during school hours. H reformed criminal having taken that part in a mock trial. RICHARD ROMAN. Richie, the blond Romeo, staged a comeback from the football team to counting books in Miss Perham lass. He his Friday nights down at Willy ' s dancing with Whitie. He wants to be a iaker, CASIMIR ROSZKOWSKI. All of those students with excellent memories probably remember Kayo in the Merchant of Venice Up-to-Date. He has been a member of the Cartoon Club and the Science Club. He spends • hours constructing aeroplane models. MAYLIN RUFF. Step riqht up this way, folks, and se Park!

WILLIAM SERPE. Bill has been on the Student Council, earned his R, in football and gone out for tra ' clc. In spite of these drawbacks in his path of being educated, he has found time to graduate. HAROLD J. SHOVERS. Sonny looks innocent, but looks are often deceiving. The lis of his clubs looks like the table of contents of the club section. Law is his interest after school. NORMAN SHOVERS. Norm is one of the select group who like algebra and history, He is preparing himself for law work here at Park by joining the Debate Club, and some day hopes ro be a great lawyer. WILFRED SIMONSEN. Either school wearies Wilfred or he is too brilliant for the ordinary run of students, for he finds it necessary to attend school only a half day. He has been carrying the heavy burden of two Englishes. In other years he played in band and orchestra. JOHN SMITH. This good-looking young man, the pride of the senior class, — and of the whole school, was elected president of the seniors. He will also be remembered as one of the most valuable basketball players this year. GRACE SOLOMON. Auburn-haired Grade can be seen almost any day lug- ging home a big armful of books, but she spends her time there knitting. She came to Park from Pontiac High School, Pontiac, Michigan. LEONARD SOMMERFELD. Lem is a preserver of wild life after they are dead— he stuffs them. Student Council has got him out of a lot of classes. Wrestling is one of his sports. Printing his favorite subject. ANNA MARIE SORENSEN. Anna Marie wants, to be an opera singer and practices in the chorus. And how she can talk about that classified list of boy- friends and her extensive traveling and shopping! DOROTHEA SORENSON. Snookums ' height puts her in the back row of the choris- ters. We have heard that she can tickle the ivories, and it has also been noised around that she can play baseball In an enviable manner. GORDON SORENSEN. Gordon ' s nationality or ancestry account for his nickname, which, useless to remind anyone, is Dane . He enjoys puttering around machines in a machine shop or making cabinets, and prides himself on his workshop at home. vhat ambitious e sings the JANE SORENSEN. Doing nothing Is Sornie ' s favorite hobby. My people we have around Park! She really isn ' t that useless, however. Sh chorus and belongs to G.A.A. and Wichaka. WINIFRED SORENSON.

Why school teachers get gray — Al ' s handwriting. They have been considering the question whether or not to purchase him a portable typewriter, but because of the depression have decided to ruin their eyes instead. ANN STERNBERG. Sterny came from Huron, South Dakota. Since s he has been to Park she has earned her R, an accomplishment which many girls that go to school here all three years don ' t achieve.
