J cA-aiJ JOHN HORACE GITHENS MILLVILLE, N. J. Gith Of the firm of Githens Bros. No stiff proposition is Horace. You know and I know that Horace will make a hit wherever he goes and make a score after his hit, too. We know he can make a mark even in granite, for Miss Gorham assures us he still has his niche in her heart. The chief side to Horace ' s character is its good nature, in or- der to preserve which he refuses to discuss anything deep- er than current baseball problems, or to debate the advan- tages of the Bunny Hug over the Tango. MAY THORNTON HAINES ATLANTIC CITY, N. J. Oh people, this trig will be the death of me yet. I worked just hours on it, and don ' t get anywhere. I know I ' ll flimk it, and if I do, I ' ll die. I ' m just worried sick. May starts over for the Trig exam, imploring every- body she meets to pray for her. A couple of daj ' s later you meet her coming from the observatory with a broad smile, and you know that she has gotten another B in that Trig. Page Sixly-three

MEYER WILLIAMS GINSBURG PHILADELPHIA, PA. Ladies and gentlemen, allow vis to present Meyer Wil- liams Ginsburg, our boy hero. Inspired by visions of a Carnegie medal, Ginsy rushed into the fiery flaming fur- nace and did the Aeneas-Anchises stunt witli somebody ' s cook. In view of the fame acquired by this heroic exploit, Ginsy decided on a political career and, leaving the H S sanctum, he took up Political Science. Since the mid semesters he has changed again and is now going into pro- fessional basketball in the Chester Church League. FRANK WEEDER GITHENS MILLVILLE, N. J. A man of much exercise; at least he has the slim results of over mvich exercise. A good fellow — and incidentally a dashing waitress. He carries about with him the green character of the ocean waves, derived from lingering over 1 seaside soda water booth — the result of his business part- nership in summer with Horace. Frank is the shadow of Horace, Horace the shadow of Frank. Without one you haven ' t the other, without the other you haven ' t the one. Page Sixtv-trvo

MARION LLOYD HALLOWELL, n B PHILADELPHIA, PA. Danger! Her laugh is dangerous; explodes violently and frequently. Her eyes are dangerous; turn on you une.xpectedly. Her talk is dangerous; may trip you up. Her manner is dangerous; affects the heart. STOP! LOOK! LISTEN! It will pay. RUSSELL HARRISON HALTOM, K 5 WORTHINGTON, IND. Russ is a Hoosier; you would never guess it though by looking at him. He is funny, so funny that you have to laugh at him. If any one wants to spill soup down any one ' s neck, Russ presents himself as the victim — and every- body laughs. If at the training table, peculiar concoctions are brewed, Russ is the taster — and everybody laughs. If at the Math Club some one promiscuously throws cube roots and radicals, Russ always manages to get hit — and every one laughs. Yes, Russ is a funny guy. We all have to laugh. Yet we all laugh with him. Page Sixt -four
