'Stye 'tUeatl|cr jfiaiu? ROBERT CHATTIN “To be, contents his natural desire.” Spanish Club (3); Thanksgiving Play (4); Christmas Play (4) ; Senior Play (4) ; Glee Club. Robert glides along the corridors in puritanical fashion, with naught but the black book lacking. Although we have heard many people remark that he was perfectly suited to his role in the Senior Play—we assure you he is perfectly sane and harmless. OLIVE CHURCH Blessed with a plain Reason and a sober Sense. Class Basketball (I, 3. 4); French Club (3); Slide Rule Club (4); Junior Prom Committee (3); Glee Club (I); Hockey (2) ; Senior Day Committee (4); Class Day Committee (4). This decided, dependable little person goes about her work in the most unobtrusive manner, but she does much and does it well. Olive does her best in everything whether it be basketball or IVealher Vane. She has the kind of character which is the admiration of her teachers and the envy of her classmates. JEAN CLARK “No, such a genius never can be still.” Varsity Basketball (4) ; Class Basketball (I. 2. 3. 4); Captain (3) ; Weather Vane Board (3. 4) ; Debate Club (2, 3. 4); French Club (3. 4) ; Dramatic Club (4) ; Class Committee (2. 3, 4); Junior Prom Committee (3); Junior Picnic Committee (3); Glee Club (I); Union County Track Meet (3); Hockey (2); Leader Reporter (3); Class Day Committee, Track (4). If you want a mean and “thankless job done, asl( Jean—and shell do it! If you’re playfully inclined, .and want lively company, asl? Jean—and you’ll get it! If you're down in the dumps and need cheering up, asl( Jean—and the blues will disappear! Life in W. FI. S. seems to be a series of ask Jean’s”—and she fits the bill every time! HAROLD COLYER “A brandy and tobacco shop is near.” Senior Play Committee (4); Thanksgiving Play (4); Class Financial Committee (4). We suspect that Chubby” is one of the originals of “The Motorcycle Boys.” If so. there should be a 'Motorcycle Boys in Maryland.” (This is merely a rumor.) If you are riding in the vicinity of Westfield, and a streak passes you in a flash of fire and a terrible racket, it is he. Once in a while he slows down to about 55. W firmly believe we shall see him in the movies, doing hair raising stunts.

16 {She Jftratlirr $mtc EVELYN BRUNNER Fair as the day and always gay. Second Varsity Basketball (3. 4) ; Spanish Club (2, 3. 4); Secretary (4) ; Slide Rule Club (4) ; Senior Play Committee (4); Class Committee (I, 2, 3, 4); Junior Prom Committee (3); Weather Vane Captain (I. 3); Union County Track Meet (I); Hockey (2, 3); Academic Committee (3); Class Track (I. 2. 3. 4). Squeeky, one of our class babies, is always busy living up to her nick-name. She is also one of those brave female souls who risked the terrors of solid . WILLIAM BRYNILDSEN Lover of peace and friend of human kind. Varsity Baseball (4) ; Class Football (2. 3) ; Class Baseball (2. 3); Golf Team (4). Bill Brynildscn, a little man from the Big Woods, showed his ability in sports by being on the varsity golf and basketball teams. Those who have seen him on the court or links will not deny that he is a great little player. Bill has one weakness— banana splits; he just can’t do without them. JAMES BYRD Speed your flight. ’ Varsity Basketball (3. 4); Varsity Track (I. 2. 3. 4); Cla Basketball (2); Class Track (1); Class Football (I. 2. 3. 4) Union County Track Meet (I. 2. 3. 4); Columbus Day Pla is well known to all of us for his flashy playing on if basketball team. Besides, who is there who doesn Jaime for his track work? He’s a real bird and a fast one at that. See you in Baltimore next summe Jimmie. NELLIE BUTZ She oft had favour’d him, and favours yet. Class basketball (3); French Club (3); Senior P.'ay Property Committee (4) ; Junior Prom Invitation Committee (3) ; A. A. Captain (4). 1,365.197 arguments have been started as to whether Nellie pronounces her name Boots or Butts , but we suspect that someday it will be pronounced Short . She lives 'way out in the sticks at the end of Dorian road. Poor Shorty adds up the miles trotting 'way out there.

A. Committee (3); Class Finance Committee (4) ; Junior Picnic Committee (3); Hi-Y Club (2. 3. 4). “Wop” is another one of the bad” boys of our class. In spite of this he is well liked for his quick wit and willingness to do what is asked of him. “Ric” spends much of his time in school reading his numerous love notes. What would 1928's football team have been like without our famous end, Red Cross? HOWARD CURLETT The smoking chariot bounds.” Class Football (4); Senior Play Committee (4). Curley”, who is one of the best liked fellows in our class, evidently was in co-operation with the man who said Why worry?” As a Dodge driver he’s the last word; and—have you ever tried to argue with him? Don’t try it! He has also developed the enviable faculty of walking, in his sleep, to classes. STANLEY DANIELS To midnight dances and the public show. Varsity Football (4). Steve is the big boy who likes to shock ’em with his plus 16 knickers and monkey-fur jackets. He is particularly successful at sucking lemons and thus causes a riot at debates. Meres luck to you. Steve! We only hope you don’t trip over those pants some day! HENRY CRANE I was a friend, man, to thee, to all. Varsity football (3. 4); Varsity baseball (3. 4); Varsity basketball (4); Class football (I. 2); Class basketball (1. 2); Spanish Club (3); Slide Rule Club (4) : Senior Play Publicity Committee; Class Athletic Committee (4); Hi-Y Club (4).
