The Call O' Paa of 1935 “E’en though vanquished he could argue still.” Entered Blake 1951 Yale William James Hill Handicapped athletically by his small stature, Hilly determined to make up for it in other fields. He started last year when, as a reward for his untiring clTorts, he was appointed Managing Editor of the Publications Board. His next triumph was when he received his debating key last year as recompense for his managerial excellence. But the crowning accomplishment came when Jimmy took the Williams Theme Contest right out from under the nose ot the favorite. The highlight of his career came when he starred in the love element of the “Pirates” where even the outsider could see that his ardent conviction was based on more than Platonic friendship. Jimmy’s arguments with Al White are a daily feature of the ride to school and they are continued with other classmates on Hill’s arrival. However on arrival he usually adjourns to the chapel to lend his rather discordant voice to an otherwise good quartette. If he can get through Yale without being stepped on, Jim ought to make a name for himself. PACK TWKNTY-ONF.

The CalI O' Pan of 1935 “No genius without a tincture of madness. Ned Entered Blake 1928 M.I.T. And now we come to write the Blake phase of the life of the fellow most responsible for this year-book. Ned not only led his class in scholarship for his entire sch x l career, but he has headed both the Publications Board and the debating squad for the past year, having been a member of both the year previous. One of his most outstanding activities has been his interest in the Blake Radio Club. He and Tom Wagner, ‘$4, founded the club last year and the members under Ned’s guidance have been able to contact many distant points. Undoubtedly the greatest worrier that Blake has ever known, he was consistently sure that the Torch was not going to be good, or that his valedictory was going to flop, or that he would never finish his debate speech, and he was always wrong. His technical knowledge has often baffled Mr. Hodgkinson and so we have no worries about his success at M. I. T. where he intends to take up electrical engineering.

Arthur Edward Larkin, Jr. “Whistle and she'll come to you. ’ «r Art Entered Blake 1932 Dartmouth When Art joined our “happy family” out here on the hill, he was known to most of us only as one of those rather rough children from Lynnhurst. Now, after three years at Blake, we realize to a greater extent this person’s importance. A three letter man this year, Larkin served as reserve center on the football team, as defenseman on the hockey team, and as left fielder on the baseball team. Remembering, no doubt, his days as traffic policeman at John Burroughs, Art sang with great gusto the role of Edward, the police-sergeant, in the glee club’s operetta, “The Pirates of Penzance.’’ He also has been a member of the senior quartette of “1 got shoes” fame. In the plays this fall. Art evoked many chuckles as the cockney in “Submerged. Arthur is one of the six members of the class of ‘$5 who plan to enter Dartmouth next fall. PACE TWENTY-TWO
