WILLIAMSVILLE HIGH Souooi. JAMES GREEN Jim For courtesy wins women all as well As valor may. Although jim just came to us from Bennett this year, he certainly has been a valuable asset to our class. There is one thing in which he decidedly takes the lead-courtesy. Moreover, Jim is an excellent example of What the wellfdressed man should wear. In ad- dition to this, the English IV class has discovered that he has an inquiring mind. It is perhaps due to this that Jim does his work so faithfully and well in spite of the heavy program he is carrying. It is no wonder that he has made a host of friends. A winning smile and a cheerful word are his usual greeting to all of his acquaintances. Ma j or-Science FREADMONDE HOHL F1'itZll KWorlQ first and then rest. Fritz is one of the few mortals who is blest with . the gift of curly hair. Moreover, he has the ability to do efficient work in a filling station. We often wonder if L'Fritz, could pump information into his classmates as vvell as he can pump gas into automobiles. Although not athletically inclined, Fritzl' has rendered service to his Alma Mater as a first violinist in the orchestra for three years. Then, too, he displayed marked dramatic ability in the first German play at' tempted in this school, Der Krieg Kommtf' Those of us who went to Washington prophesy that Fritz will become the village photographer, or at least an able assistant of Reverend Schleifer. If you haven't seen his album of several hundred pictures of the trip, do not fail to ask him for it. He'll be glad to lend it to you. Orchestra '28, '29, '30 Honor Roll '28 Major-Science 15

WILLIAMSVILLE HIGH SCHOOL JACK CADMAN The men of culture are the true apostles of equalityfl Jack is rather given to giggling, but after all, it is the cheerful and merrymaking people that we like to have around us. Jack is one of the cleverest boys in his class. He came to us from the ninth grade at School 17 in Buffalo, and has helped to keep the stand' ard of W. H. S. high ever since his arrival. Jack's greatest interest is in natural science, in which he has won considerable recognition for his study and work along this line. Dramatic ability is one of his strong points. He was so winning in the French play as an American doughboy that the two French maids almost fought over the privilege of serving him. And what' ever would we have done without Jack's criticisms of the Searchlight ? He certainly filled his position as critic faithfully!

WILLIAMSVILLE HIGH SCHOOL ROBERT JENKS Bud Honor lies in honest toil. Full of pep and fun is Bud Jenks, the boy with the cheerful. curly hair. However, his temper certainly is not the sort we associate with red hair, for he has one of the most remarkable dispositions we have known. Is he courteous? And how! In addition to all these admirable qualities, Bud has been of great service to W. H. S. along the athletic line, participating in base' ball and football. Last year, he was one of the boys on the AllfHigh team. In spite of his heavy prof gram, Bud has done his work faithfully, and thus has acquired the admiration of his instructors as well as his classmates. We have a good deal of faith in Bud's success, regardless of what his intentions for the future may be.
