BENNETT P. LUJA Benny PORTLAND, MAINE The envy of all the girls, They so wixh they had your curls. Benny is the guy who breaks silences with one of the many remarks that he has for all occasions. He has kept the boys in Mass. Hall amused with his rendition of boogie-woogie. Ben has gained a repu- tation as an athlete and as an actor that should stand him in good stead later in life. As for women, he seems to have a weakness for girls with long hair. Football 4g Hockey 4g Baseball 4g Stunt Night 43 Operetta 4. JOHN THOMAS MCDERMOTT Moc CoNcoRD, NEW HAMPSHIRE A hit of lively chatter will make the day gladderf' Mac's the guy with the beautiful eyes surrounded by inch-long eye- lashes that make all the girls swoon.

GEORGE CALVIN HAMLIN Col Soun-I WATERFORD, MAINE Life ix a .verious proposition. Have you ever noticed the noisy chap who yells at the co-eds from the steps of the Administration Building? Well, that isn't the fellow. No, George is a quiet young man whose studious ways may take him to the peak of fame attained by that other Hamlin from Waterford, Cyrus by name, who was a distinguished alumnus of B.A. Camera Club 4g Ski Club 45 Track 4. FRANK LEON HENDERSON Hendy SAco, MAINE Quiet, unassuming, and likeable. Frank seems very quiet and serious to most of us, but to those who know him best he has a lot of life. He has proved himself to be ready, willing, and able whenever called upon to help out. We learned of his ability as a singer at the times of the Christmas Cantata and the Operetta. Good luck!

WARREN EDWARD PRIESTLY Gif MELRosE, MASSACHUSETTS Not by years but by disposition is wisdom acquired. Git is the big good-looking fellow who was one of the strong points of the hockey team this year. He is always a good sport, and is a very capable student, too. He has been a so-called woman-hater as far as the girls at B.A. are concerned, but we expect that before long he will become a victim of the opposite sex. Could it be that there is a girl elsewhere? Hockey 4g Baseball 43 Class Prophecy. CARLETON KENNARD SMITH Smitty BRIDGTON, MAINE Tall, dark, and handsome. Smitty is quiet, but not so shy after you get to know him. ln his one year at B.A. he has shown his cleverness on the basketball floor. Next year he plans to study Civil Engineering at the U. of M. Basketball 43 STRANGE!! Board 4. JOSEPH WEEMAN UNNOLD Joe BRIDGTON, MAINE He smile: away the cares of llvc day. joe's the tall, husky fellow who always greets you with an ear-to-ear grin. From what we hear he does a good job of keeping the third period library students quiet-you know, spare the rod and spoil the childf' Librarian 4g Basketball 43 Class Prophecy. DANA L. WOODBURY Woodie PORTLAND, MAINE Woodie is a lad the girls and boys on the campus are quite proud of. He is outwardly calm, but when it comes to excitement he'll more than join in the fun-. Good luck to you in the years to come. We hope to see you often. Football 45 Basketball 45 Camera Club 49 Baseball 4.
