Within five short years helhas masterednour tongue so well that he has fulfilled the requisxtes for a h1 h school education A , 8 . good student. bashful, shy, and reticent, he has the respect and admiration of the wh-ole class. Though he is undecided as to his future, we wish him all success. ' MAX ISRAEL MILLMAN l'Kaiser, Sonny Brown Class Play OJ: Orchestra Cl-Zjg Indoor Track UD: Class Basketball OJ 3 Dance Committee Q41 Max is not quite correctly named when called Sonny, for such a pleasant, good-natured helping hand ought to be ac- knowledged as Sunny, If you have been out late Wednes- day, for reasons manifold, and come to school on Thursday unprepared in Virgil, Max is always willing to teach it to you: and how quickly he does it! The words flow right out. as if English and not Latin were printed on the page. Cheery, helpful, a fine scholar, Sonny is typical of much that is and has been good in Classical. e , GASPARE RAPHAEL PAOLA Athletic Committee C353 Basketball C3-43 Brown Jaspar, or I-Ioss, is well-known as a bulwark of the Greek division. Without his smiling countenance and his some- times weird remarks, Cireek would indeed be a dead language. To watch I-loss going along the corridors is to be assured that he is the originator of the genuine collegiate walk. Ciaspare smiles through everything, and many of us envy his ability to keep cheerful in storms of Vergil and Homer. The energy that Hoss expends on study is remarkable. 1' 4 ROSALIND E. PARKER How Rosalind can have such high marks, and yct read all the books in every library in town is a mystery! We think that Latin must be Rosalind's favorite study, as she is always prepared to enlighten troubled minds from 8:30 to 8:56. I-Ier hair is indeed her crowning glory. It is the envy of all the members of our class, who have to resort to hairdressers. Long may it wave! Rosalind is somewhat reserved, but to her per- sonal friends she is a real pal. Another mystery about this young lady is her future. Who can fortell it?

State George is an authority on athletics, his chief topic for con- versation, and as such, he will give you all sorts of informa4 tion about the subject. While at Classical, he has shown great interest in football, track, and other sports. His glowing per- sonality is quite as brilliant in the ballroom, where he is truly in his element. George expects to go to Kingston College, whither our best wishes precede him.

Cecilia, the minute maid I Every morning this fair stu- dent precedes the fatal 9 o'clock gong by a single minute.

,DB 'ia 329 THE CADUCEUS GORDON FRANKLIN PEERS Football HD Unfortunately for Classical. Gordon has devoted his athletic ability chiefly to the where he spends his leisure hours. Swimming is one of his pleasures, Mr. Paine will guarantee that he is a regular barracuda. Gordon is also an artist, and such a conglomeration of talents assures us of a great future before him. Proficiency in tripping light with grace brings him to most student dances. Sad to say, Gordon is bashful. but in spite of this major offence, he is sure to succeed: in fact we expect Gordon to give us a place in history. NORMAN T. PRATT, JR. Photograph Committee Chairman: Baseball Qlj Brown Jimmy, the fair-haired Adonis, is one of the outstanding members of our class. His scholastic record is brilliant, he is an excellent athlete, and is generally pre-eminent at our various social affairs. Vw'hether he is debating with Miss Day or split- ting hairs on a point of Greek syntax, his classmates get a view- point that is original, instructive, and amusing. He takes his energy, his good-nature fboth boundlessj, and his bizarre ties to Brown, whence he will emerge prepared to diffuse learning among some future generations. JOHN BELL RAE Class Treasurer C33 3 Business Manager of Caduceus Board C45 1 Debating Team C45 3 President of Debating Society C49 1 Soccer C45 Brown Who can translate this sentence of Homer? - Ask John: he knows. This extraordinary young man is our honor pupil: the delight of all teachers. ls there ever a question to which he cannot find fitting reply? Not only does John excel in studies, but together with another curly-headed player, he has made the soccer team really formidable at times, Nor does he lack inter- est in social affairs, for so far, he has been strenuously present. Next year he goes to Brown to prepare to annoy the future generation as a teacher. MARY BROWN RAE Caduceus Board C4j Brown or Gibbs Mary and her flaming brother have more than the class's portion of sunset's vivid hue. Prom Scotland she came, and with native tenacity, securely grasped the coveted Summa Gum Laude : but she is not a grind, taking part in all social affairs, and Joining in at every burst of applause at the sporting events. Her less fortunate neighbors always welcome her assistance in solving impending academic difficulties. Two years from now, she will, no doubt. be urging one hunderd words a minute from some perspirmg typewriter, for she will enter Gibbs Secretarial School in September, unless she decides in the meantime to go to Brown.
