6224621923 Liber B-runensisws WHITNEY DORUS BASCOM A K E Ty Ticonderoga, N. Y. Ty has been with us on the Hill for five years, and the associa- tion has been most pleasant. We do not find him often about the campus: it is at the Biltmore and in the salons of Providence that he excels. Brennan's draws more feminine trade, because the girls hope he will be there, and they are usually correct. Hand- some, dapper, and well-groomed, he still remains somewhat of a mystery. At times we can only fearfully guess at what goes on behind that urbane countenance. CHARLES WALKER BATTLE e A '1' Sz Charlie Providence, R. I. A shock of hair, quizzical eyes, a book held nonchalantly in one hand, and feet that seem impatient to be going somewhere, characterize one of the best-known men on the campus. The successful season that the University Orchestra has just enjoyed is due partly to his managerial efficiency and ability to do to-day what so many of us put off until to-morrow. Harvard Business School will probably be his next stop on the road to financial independence, and to that mythical circle of close friends the suc- cess of One Hung is not doubted for an instant. l Daily Hcmlrl C15 C23 C355 Eronomics Club C35 CAD: University Orchestra C39 C437 Treasurer CM. RAYMOND JOSEPH BECKWITH Joe New London, Conn. Generally speaking, there is something seriously wrong with a man addicted to solitaire. Ray is an exception, for apparently his solitaire playing is his only fault. Outside of being an en- gineer, Ray's chief claim to fame is that he has dispelled the myth that only the intelligentsia can wear a mustache. FREDERICK BEHRENDT fb E K Freddie Newark, N. J. Everyone that knows Freddie likes him, and those few who do not know him, respect him. His retiring affability makes him an agreeable companion, just the kind of a man that keeps the friends he so easily makes. Freddie divides his time between Chemistry, Physics, and Lacrosse: and from all reports is equally adept in 1 each. A loyal friend, a good fellow, a man of character and ability, he will be a success in life. University Lacrosse Team C33 CD. 30

Qaolqza Liber Brunensmssae LYMAN BENTLEY AVERY 6 A X Beanie White Plains, N. Y. V Beanie, the first of the Avery combination, is just the opposite of his older brother. Care-free, and happy-go-lucky, he always takes the easiest way. His hearty laugh and the thrill of his really beautiful Voice, have cheered us in moments of depression. A good student, one of the best indoor athletes, and a gentleman always, we know that he will succeed in whatever line he chooses. ROBERT DILLS AVERY 9 A X Bob White Plains, N. Y. Bob is the little man with the big smile we see walking across the Campus at eight o'clock every morning. He is always looking for trouble so that he can avoid it, and gets into more places free than One-eyed Connelly. Some day we expect to see Bob in the White House, sweeping the floors. In spite of all this friendly banter, everyone thinks a lot of Bob, and without doubt his hard work and perseverance will take him far. JOSEPH ANTHONY BAGDON Joe Clinton, Mass. Joe has for four years set an example of sartorial elegance for the engineers, and meanwhile, has maintained the appearance of an exceedingly carefree young man. His attitude has failed to hide the fact that Joe is one of the most earnest students in the depart- ment. Not just another engineer, but Joe Bagdon, gentleman and friend. University Engineering Soriclg C32 CLD. V EDWARD AMES BALZER B 9 H Ed, Peewee New York, N. Y. It hardly seems four years ago that this typical New Yorker announced himself upon the Hill. All traces of greenness were ably removed in his one short year at Admiral's Inn. A man of strong dislikes, possessed of a wealth of ambition and a capacity for work, he soon became well-known on the Campus. It is hinted that J. Pierpont Morgan should watch out for his laurels when Ed hits Wall Street. With a strong personality and true deep sincerity, he has left an admirable impression on his friends.

Q 6611923 Liber Bruneneiswv LEWIS TILTON BENNETT A X A Lew, Ben Manchester, N. H. Manchester scored her greatest hit when she sent us Lew, Pre-Med. extraordinary and bridge player supreme. Here we have the finest example of the perpetually tired student. Lew claims that it isn't working 'in the Biological and Chemical Lab- oratories that wears him out, but the confounded dates between times that do the trick. Nevertheless he revels in the smell of pickling alcohol and will do almost anything to be allowed to operate on an amoeba, snake or what have you!! We dare say that he will eventually develop into a mighty fine Chiropodist. LOUIS BERDANSKY Lou Brooklyn, N. Y. Weary of being a strap-hanger in the Big City, Lou packed his two shirts, said the maternal farewell, and hied himself to Brown. Now he is a Senior and can safely say that he has acquired another shirt and a taste for hamburgers at three o'clock in the morning. His great contribution to mankind has been his untiring efforts in reorganizing the Menorah Society. His work at Columbia Law should fit in well with his abilities as an organizer. I Ilfexgnralz. Society, Executive Member CID, Secretary 425, Vice-President CSD, Presi- r en . ROBERT FREDERICK BERWALD, JR. XII T Bob, Roscoe Cleveland, Ohio Managing the hockey team, falling in love, answering charges for speeding, and talking with the leading politicians in dimly lit places have taken most of Bob's four years in Providence. The fact that he does all these things very well indicates that he is closely acquainted with the vicissitudes of life. In addition to perfecting his accomplishments, Bob has taken time off to show us he is gifted with the qualities that make him-one of the very few-capable of real friendship. University Horkey Team, Assistant Manager 139, Manager C435 Junior Promenade Committee. A PAUL BEH NIEN BIEN Paul'l Tientsin, China Paul is from the chaotic China. In spite of the unrest of his country, he joined us last fall in the pursuit of knowledge. Before he came here, he was an employee of the Golden Sea Chemical Industry Research Institute, connected with the Pacific Alkali Company and the Jiu-Ta Salt Refinery at Tanku, North China, for two years. He hopes to remain here for further training after his graduation. Let us watch his future. 31
