One would never suspect all his potential thunder to hear him whisper at the upturned blank expressions in chapel on Monday morn- ings, but the storm resulting from a bor- rowed book has often been of such in- tensity as to shake the walls of the Senior room. ' Bob was a pillar of strength when he captained the football team from his right tackle position, and when his good nature was ruffled, his cavortings were something to behold. He was in the Glee Club for a while, but he thoughtfully resigned. They found that he outroared the combined bass section, and the or- ganization was thrown into terror and confusion one day when he found a piece he really liked. The only time he came under a Cloud of suspicion was when he was found, in company with another hilarious class- mate, stowing a chicken under the dash- board of a car parked near the field- house. Upon discovering that the car belonged to an alumnus, the Man Moun- tain masterfully extricated said chicken, amid a storm of squawks and a flurry of feathers. His only Vices, though, are his big feet and his magnanimity. Page Twenty-one

THE CALL 09 PAN OF 1933 During his sojourn at the little red school- house on the hill, Bill has managed to participate in a rather imposing number of extra-curricular activities. He started his collection of trophies by winning the Union bottletop for Fifth Form declama- tion, and due to his skill in the annual orgy with the boys from St. Paul, he was awarded the Stricker Debating cup for this year. His ability to juggle accounts from the red into the black has been used for the salvation of the prostrate publications, and in handling the swimming finances, he has brought roseate smiles t0 the grim visage of Mister Paul Bosanko, tA.B., Page T wenty William Frederic Hayden ttBilF, iiWhence is thy learning?

When of an afternoon we see the familiar green Buick going to- ward town on Excelsior Bulvud. at a hor- rible rate of speed, we know that several more hard-hoiled businessmen are going to succumb to his arguments that it really pays to advertise in year books after all. His studious calm isn7t ruffled even when he crosses foils with the French mentor or with Arthur, another disciple, although the contest seems often to be verbal in nature. With the medical bee in his bonnet, Bill intends to extend his experience as a Boy Sprout to the sterner requirements of Harvard, which he will attend with four other Blake hopefuls.

THE CALL 09 PAN 0F 1933 Distinguished as being one of the few serious-minded members of a rather hair- brained and hilarious class, Al is known to have his moments of levity, as fre- quently evidenced by the crestfallen ap- pearance and limping gait of many of his classmates. Becoming addicted last year to the pur- suit of the microbe, he has delivered many learned dissertations on bacteria and germs, with the result that half the school believes itself tubercular. In con- vivial moments, his outbreaks of reason- ing delivered at the trough known as the Senior table have been known to silence even the philosophical treatises 0f the irrepressible Wimpy. His acquaintance with Grey,s Anatomy and weighty tomes 0n pathology has established him as an Page Twenty-two Allan J anney Hill, Jr. HAP, tiOf science and logic he chatters As fine and as fast as he can?

Deciding upon a pre-medic course, Al is going to cast his lot with the hopefuls at the U. of M., and we suspect that he isn,t oblivious 0f the attractions of co- education. With his insidious fondness for carving and probing, i4Butch,, ought to make the name of Hill famous in the medical world. Caveat emptor.
