Achievements are not measured bv vears. as is well attest- ed in the case of Howard. He has made an enviable record in the classroom. As a side- line he works with Gold and Black and shoots darts at female hearts. One mig ht judge his marksmanship to be extraordina- rily good. He is a valuable man to h ' s class and he will be a no less valuable citizen to his state. John Hicks Howell. A.B.

His va- ried activities on the campus, as well as his excellent work in the classroom, have made him an invaluable man. We expect him to play the game of life in a manner that will bring pride to his classmates. Ervin Jackson. B.S.

Ervin is another of that number who stole a march on the Juniors and left them trailing a full year behind. In addi- tion to this, he proved himself one of the niost efticient business men to appear on the hill in many a year by the manner in which he directed the financial destinies of the Re- vue and the football team. All of which presages the larger things he will put across later. fa J '

They would con- tend, doubtless, that Big Hall ' s case is an exception to the rule; but we prefer to be- lieve it proves their contention false. He was almost unanimously voted the most des- perately in love on the Slopes, and his achievement of winning a degree in three years speaks the rest.

Al- though he sniffled some of their gas. he seems to have gotten the better of the little argument over there and came back in fine fettle for joining in a contest of longer du- ration against the forces of his Satanic ma- jesty.
