Leander Thomas DeCelles, 46 Ware St., Somerville St. Vincent de Paul (4) Stylus(2. .?, 4) About three weeks after we had assembled as Freshmen, this jovial youth appeared, somewhat late, it is true, but for that reason all the more welcome. The class would indeed have been incom- plete without him. Leander is very well kno N ' n to the readers of the Stylus to whose pages he has been a constant contributor during his entire course. An omnivorous reader, he is part- icularly well- versed in Greek mythology, with which knowledge he has often astounded us. His inexhaustible supply of wit has prevented any class becoming at all dry or monotonous. With a pleasant mixture of humor and seriousness, Leander has won a place in our hearts, and we . shall not soon forget the happy hours we have spent in his company. We presume to prognosticate that this facetiously fascinating fellow will devote himself to literary pursuits, and we will watch his progress in this field closely and confidently. A poet with a brilliant wit, A humorist of fame, And ah to versatility, Why that ' s his middle name.

(2) St. Vincent De Paul (4) Class President (4) It is indeed a pleasure to be able to present to you, dear reader, the President of the Class of 1916. By his diplomacy and clever manage- ment the class has gained its great- est laurels during the past year. But Bill did not jump into the limelight suddenly; from the very day he entered college he put forth the very best that was in him to make our class the greatest boast of Alma Mater. We all remember how Bill gave us the benefit of his keen intellect, of his strong character, and of his noble ideals during the four years that he has spent in our midst. With a genial disposition that the most difficult task could not eradicate, with an astute mind, and a wholesome humor, Bill ' s presence among us has been one which we shall not soon forget; and we wish, that in his every future endeavor he may meet with the same success that has been his during his college course. With a smile that never ' anished, Every college task he ' d scan ; But the thing we most remember Is the fact that he ' s a man. ai

Charles Edward DeLorme, 368 Hildreth St., Lowell Shakesperean Dramatics (3, 4) Secretary Glee Club (4) Class Day Com. (4) Passion Play (i Tennis Team (3 Gentle reader, you are privileg- ed to view on this page the feat- ures of Charles DeLorme, better known as Charley . Charley , it is true, is not a native of the College ' if I may so use the word; he was formerly loyal to Holy Cross. But B. C, called and Charley deserted his first love and answer- ed her call. Thus it came about that in our Junior year we rejoiced in the reception of a new member, and we have been rejoicing ever since, for Charley has made good , not alone in his class work and dramatics, but also in friendship. He has been tested and has not been found wanting in the qualifications for manhood and fellowship. May success attend him in his future activities, in which he will find his class- mates greatly interested; and in the years to come we shall expect from him additional honor to the now numerous glories of our class and our college. A chemist of note, An actor of plays, Success that is great. Shall crown all his days. ■I
