To "Dig Out" Railroad
Friends of William H. Hamilton,
president of the 1919 class of Central
Iligh school, were surprised to see
him clad in overalls and working
for a railroad near Philadelphia re
cently. "What's the matter. Bill?" asked C.
J. Classon of the Peters Trust com
pany, who was in- Philadelphia on
business last week. "Did the folks
cut off the allowance?"
The strike was the reason why
Hamilton and about ISO other stu
dents of Haverford college volun
teered for service to relieve conges
tion in the vicinity of Philadelphia.
"The engine that pulled my train
from New York to Philadelphia,"
said Classon, "was fired by a stu
dent whose strength gave out at
New Brunswick. There was a 20
minute delay until a fireman could
be secured."
The students are living in Pull
man cars and receive Pullman serv
ice while working during the strike.
