(Elic JBeathn Uanc 27 FRANK SCHOENWISNER The Creating Chair He is but a country gentleman. Christmas Play (4); Debate Club (3). Frank is all that his name implies. He succeeds at everything he tries, whether it be studies, acting, or arguing. Among his aspirations are a professorship in Columbia, and the Mayoralty of Garwood. ELIZABETH SCULLY The Quaker Cirl Your Presence gladdens our days. Glee Club (I); Pocahontas (I); Class Track (I. 2. 4). Here is our class Philleas Fogg, never in a hurry, always on lime. No wonder she can always laugh so easily. JOSEPHINE SILBERG vYrj-Booirs' M “And leave us leisure to be good. Junior Prom Committee (3). In the classroom. Joe assumes a quiet and reserved manner but outside it is quite different, where she is girlish and enthusiastic, of a friendly and kind disposition. Joe proves a very likeable personality—lively and full of fun. L. LORRAINE SLOCUM Tcll Me More What means this passionate discourse? Debate Squad (3. 4); Senior Play Publicity Committee. Mire! Flere’s our marathon debater. What would happen if she stuttered! Lorraine is the type that blows away your trouble by waggling around you and laughing at your stupid jokes. I I I9KJHB M r

Class Football (4); Class Track (3); Weather Vane (4); H.-Y (4); Senior Day Play (4); Varsity Track (3. 4); Christmas Play (4). Smash! Bang! What's this coming? You guess it; it’s Wallie. the class shark. No. he didn’t have to lake off his glasses to have this picture taken because he isn’t that kind of a shark. He is a shark with athletics, a shark with acting, a sheik (pardon me. shark) with the ladies. , DOUGLAS SAMPSON . LUUaJ. 3 j y £ Js al So? “So curses all Eve’s daughters of complexion soever.

Is the metomicocuc of the snickerumbisic a part of the I vpocoticus of the thyronemphtcra, or of the wilonypex of the Maxelotherim? Yes. Douglas, two or three of them. Douglas' frequent pardon me. but it is not that etc. has made him the wonder of his class-mates and the terror of his teachers. MARIAN SCOTT When Knighthood Was in Flower Toil, says the proverb, is the sire of fame. Living Pictures (I. 2) • Class Basketball 2); Varsity Basketball (3); Cant. Second Varsity (4); Weather Vane (3. 4); Junior Prom Committee (3); Union County Oratorical Contest (4); Times Oratorical Contest (4); Armistice Day Program (4); Class Hockey (4).

Varsity tennis (I. 2. 3, 4); Captain (2. 3. 4); Manager f3); Senior Play Carpentry Committee; Thanksgiving Play; Weather Vane Board for Senior Issue. We often wonder if Kid doesn’t fear the Ku Klux. Perhaps some day the Klan will make a mistake—Poor Kid! But he does ! spend all his time in his Hebrew gesticulation—far from it! Can he play tennis.—yes he can—and bridge! CO LA As .

28 (Elu' 3Heatl|cr %ittc EVERETT S. SMITH The Jest Good wits will jump.” Weather Vanc (3. 4); Senior Play Scenery Committee (4) ; Thanksgiving Play (4); Springtime Publicity Manager (4); Concert Committee (4); Hi-Y (3. 4); Senior Play (4) ; Class Track (4); Dramatic Club (4). You re likely to find Smitty on the chandeliers, window casements, or telegraph poles. He amuses the student body with his Weather Vane and Dramatic Club speeches. He expects in future years, to support himself by selling can-openers. He will be the human fly in his spare moments. MARJORIE SMITH Pinafore Keep this friend Under thy own life’s key. Class Track (I, 2. 3. 4); Varsity Track (I, 2. 3. 4); Class Hockey (4). Class Basketball (I, 2); Varsity (2, 4); Art Prom Committee (3) ; Art Committee Senior Play (4): Art Committee Class Day (4). We think that Midget must have a pair of wings tucked away somewhere—she just seems to fly through the air in all athletic events. She is another example of the old saying that the best goods come in small packages. C. WESLEY H. SMITH The Master Builder Faith, his hair is of good color. Entered W. H. S. in 1923. Chairman Senior Play Carpentry Committee (4); Chairman Lighting Committee Senior Play (4); Dramatic Club (4). If Red should hit his thumb with a hammer, you wouldn't hear about it. That s the nice thing about him; he does his work well without a lot of noise. We hope the scenery won’t fall down in future years after Red has left his post. If he doesn’t succeed as a stage artist, he can always make a living as a humorist. RUTH STADELE The Dove Promise is most given where the least is said. Glee Club (I, 2, 3); Pocahontas (2); Class Basketball (I, 2. 3, 4); Junior Prom Committee; Class track (4). Ruth accomplishes whatever she does with the least possible confusion. When she plays basketball, she hardly moves, but she always manages to get the leather through. While she is at her Remington, she sits still and the type flies.
