CARL HARRY BARNETT, Father Delta Tau Delta ; pa Alpha ; Philo Club; Y. M. C. A. ' 07 ; Baseball Tau Kap- Sandwich Pres. ' 06- manager ' 07 ; Oratorical representative ' 07 Class Day Plays ' 06, ' 07, ' 08, ' 09, ' 10 ; Baseball team ' 04, ' 05, ' 07, ' OS. The father of his class. He came from Plainfield — or at least the catalogue says so, but it was so long ago that very few of us re- member just when it was. ROBERT JAMES McKAY, Bob, Mary ' s Lamb Sigma Chi : Philo ; Dramatic Club, Pres. ' 07 ; Class Pres. ' OS; Basket Ball, Capt. ' 07: Tennis Team. doubles and singles ' 07, doubles ' 0 9 ; Foot Ball, Capt. ' OS; Baseball: Drift Staff 09; Senior Scholarship ' 10. Besides all this Bob has been on nearly every athletic team and orchestra, and yet he has devoted most of his time to campustry. He tried Westminster for one term, but it was too far away from Green- field, for as a lady s man, Bob is the most consistent in Butler. Bob is a mighty good fellow — don ' t for- get it. GRANVILLE FRANK POWERS, Billy Philo, Pres. ' OS, ' 10; Sandwich Club, Pres. ' 10; Y. M. C. A., Pres. ' 0 7; Intercollegiate Ora- torical Contest, ' 08 ; Class Treas. ' 10 ; Treas. State Ora- torical Assn. ' OS ; Manager Baseball Team ' 10. How or why on earth a person with, such an imposing front name as Granville should come to be known only as Billy is a mys- tery. Once in a while he does a funny stunt in chapel, but his chief claim to fame is holding of the standing broad grin championship. His grin is of the kind made cele- brated by the Quaker Oats Com- pany.

OTTA RAY HANWAY, Otta Ray Y. W. C. A. (cabinet); Lo- tus Club. Otta Ray is said by the mem- bers of the Lotus Club to be an in- terlocutor of great ability. How- ever, a man would not be admitted to the black face performances of the Lotus Club, so we will have to take their word. MARY HANNA Philo; Y. W. C. A.; Lotus Club. Mary tried Oxford away back in 06, but it didn ' t suit her, so she came to a real school. She ' s not the only one who has done it, and to judge from her smile she is sat- isfied with the change. IRENE BROOKS HUNT, Dot Y. W. C. A.; Lotus Club; Philo; Drift Staff ' 09. Dot is said to have obtained her nickname from her chronic in- ability to arrive on the dot, — that ' s one story. Another goes that she was so pokey ' that they called her Polka Dot (pronounced pokey-dot ), and as that was too long to call her for short, they had to change it to Dot. Take your choice.

ALONZO ALBERT HARTLEY, ■ Lonzo Phi Delta Theta; Y. M. C. A.; Football 07, ' 08, ' 09; Class Track Captain, ' 10. ' Lonzo was the veteran center of the team that beat Wabash, and his graduation will leave a hole in the line that will be hard to fill. Always a steady and dependable, if not spectacular player, ' Lonzo has held down his place against men who considerably outweighed him. Off the football field ' Lonzo ' s chief ambition is to be as little conspicu- ous as possible, although once in a while compelled to recite. BARCUS TICHBNOR Philo; Lotus Club. One ot those gentle violets, modest, tender and true — and as she rather objected to being inter- viewed, this was all we were able to find out.
