MR. LUNDHOLM ELECTED to succeed Mr. Savage as advisor to the class of 1940. Mr. Lundholm has justified the confidence of the Seniors by his kind and tactful treatment of the many problems which are bound to arise in so large a class as that of 1940. His wise and just enforcement of discipline has further inspired the respect and liking of the boys. His friendship will remain with us as one of the pleasantest of our Blake School associations. 25

Two boys entered the class in the first form—Bertram Mokros. whose long and successful career at Blake was capped last year when he received the highest honor the school can confer upon a student, the position of Head Boy. and Lampert Walling, whose arrival was hailed par- 27
