KlKITTY,, GEORGE EDWARD BUTZ HOKENDAUQUA Character is the cornerstone of success. This young man first saw the light of day in West Catasauqua, where he attended the grade schools. His parents then moved to Hoken- dauqua, where he continued his elementary edu- cation. Butzie entered Whitehall in the fall of l925 and soon became popular. He seems to prefer to work with machinery rather than spend his time studying. He is a good friend and lends a -helping hand when needed. His witty remarks are amusing to some? ? George is interested in sports and has never missed a game unless utterly unavoidable. For a time, he played on the varsity, but, when not la ing he could be found among the rooters P Y v doing his bit for the school. He is undecided as to what he will do upon leaving school, but we know he will succeed in his undertakings. The class of '29 bids you, farewell!

Catherine was demure and shy when she enrolled at Whitehall, but not for a very long time, for today she is one of the most active and popular girls of her class. Kitty is a shark at dancing, and enjoys it very much. She is very popular with the opposite sex, but there is no one in particular. She always has a smile for every one. Cares and worries are her arrowed enemies. Catherine is considered a good speaker, as was shown by the fact that she was entered in the Oratorical Contest. Although Kitty has not definitely decided what her life work will be, we may picture her as spending the next few years in an office as some- body's private stenographer, and we wish her success in her undertaking.

MARY GRETHEN BRENDLE EGYPT I cannot check my girlish blush, My color comes and goes, I redden to my finger tips, And sometimes to my nose. Mary first saw the light of day in Abilene, Kansas, on April 3, 1912. After some moving she came to Egypt. She entered Whitehall in April, 1926, as a member of the class of '29, When Mitzi entered Whitehall she was some- what bashful, and not much concerned about the opposite sexg but now she is a friend of every one and is especially interested in a certain Sophomore at U. of P. She is also a member of the Big Five. Mitzi took a great interest in athletics, as she showed by playing basketball in her Fresh- man and Sophomore years. Mitzi is a rmember of the academic class and intends to attend Ursinus College to further her quest for knowledge. We know that what- ever she will attempt to do, she will be a success.

WOODROW ALLEN BUCHMAN A ALLENTOWN, R. 3 ' A good reputation is more valuable than money. This lad was born on January 17, 1913, in the village of Walberts. He entered the grade schools of South Whitehall Township. After completing his education there, he entered Whitehall with the class of '29, While going to the grade schools he was given the nickname of Woody, which was very soon adopted by his high school companions. He is a person who is liked by every one and easy of acquaintance. He took much pride in the fact that he always had his school work well pre- pared. He was interested in athletics and he always supported his high school well in this respect. It was always his hobby to monopolize the sport sheet of the newspaper, and as a result he was always well informed of the facts contained therein, especially those pertaining to baseball. His main ambition is to enter civil service and we of the class of '29 know he will succeed.
