As et she Ghdecided about ext te in the climb, for Y 1 P knowledgeg but perhaps some day, not far dis ant, we may point with pride to the wellfknown journalist, whose rticle are illustrated by the great cartoonist, Al Glines, both former clas s. PARENSEM KARIAN Glee Club, Pansy's dimples have won her many a friend in Classical. Her keen wit is ready to enjoy any remarks passed by her classmates. She is also one of our artists, elevated, by popular consent, to the position of sign' painter of her homefroom. She does not spend all her time, however, drawing and mixing colorful paints, for she adores dancing. This is her chief delight. When a social comes along, Pansy's first question is, Good dance music? All right, I'll come. French holds a great Riscination for her, in fact, if her plans are successful, she may cultivate the native accent l in Paris, after leaving Classical. FLORENCE KELLEY Glee Club, C415 Baseball, C21xGerman Play, C41. Whenever we think of Florenc i ars to come, Cand be assured that we shall do so countless times1, she appear fore our minds in several different aspects: perhaps as t htfully uettish Kathe in the Gerf man Play, or fifty per cent of .

She has more of an opportunity to offer such assistan an mo us, as she is an allfround Hne student, particularly in math. e've almo forgotten to note something unusually distinctive about Florence: of all the girls with curly hair in Classical and points west A -well, just look at the accompanying photograph and finish the sentence for yourself. all JOHN JAMES KELLY Baseball, CZ, 3, 41, Football, C3, 415 Basketball, C3, 41. Now we come to a shy, retreating lad, who holds the admiration of the whole school. His versatility in the Held of sport has made him a general favorite of both sexes, but though he is the subject of animated discussion among the fairer sex on many occasions, his bashful nature keeps him from becoming a lady's man. jack is in reality a rough and ready hefman, as many of his opponents will testify, and these hefmen are hard to understand. As the movingfpictures require this type now, surely jack will wind up as a hero! Hasta la vista!

16 THE CADUCEUS GIBBS LOUIS CHARLES IRVING BROWN Louie has a keen sense of humor. He proved it when he brought a rope to school the day of an examination fe-so that, if the latter was too hard he could hang himself . . . or perhaps, the teacher. His pet dish is mathematics, and he would like nothing better than to sit down before a table loaded with math delicatessen and devour all the mantissae. Have you heard of his latest modihcation of Darwin's theorygthe evolution of polynomials? Teachers seldom say anything in Louie's presence that is not challenged by him. And once he won his argumentg the boy certainly deserves credit. We appreciate it, Louie! HARVARD one of the foremost lawyers of the country GEORGE FRANCIS JORDAN, JR. Dance Committee, Swimming, 13, 45. R. I. S. C. George is one of the gentlemen of the class who has a heart from which noble sentiments spring like sparks from an anvil. He is a jolly all weather friend, capable of making a way through a world of obstacles. Every one has his ups and downs, but George specializes in ups He can give a detailed summary of the best shows in town, and is a popular boy at social affairs. Lets give a Yeafa, Rah! Rah lla typical Classical toastf-for George. EDNA LESTINA INGERSON Glee Club, CZ, 3,5 Leaders Corps Q21 What! Edna talking to another boy? Oh yes they come from f ir and near. Her popularity has manifested itself it our student dances and social affairs. In one of Miss Day's English plays she portriyed Polly very naturally, demonstrating, beyond doubt her dr unitic ibility We are certain that she will enter into everything in the future with the same vim that she has exhibited during her four successful ye irs it Cl issic il LEO LEWIS JACQUES Basketball, C455 Summa Cum Laude Leo has set many a teacher on the qui vwe during a recitation beciuse of a propensity for making philosophical remarks ibout his classmates the recitation, the teacher, and things in general Yet we h ive never seen a single teacher rise in wrath, or go beyond a very slight reprimind I must be his dignified bearing, which makes one think of professors or liw ers fthe le al kindl that subdues our instructors Sometimes Leo prac Y. . g ' .. tices his speeches on us and gets our goats in the same wiy k 'liuhis talent, which is too much of an art to be called ability should ma e im

THE CADUCEUS WALTER LOUIS KENDRICK Caduceus Board. NORTI-IBASTERN UNIVERSITY Kendrick, Kullberg Er? jacques, Inc., Manufacturers of Wise Cracks, jokes, Witty Remarks, Etc. If such a company were possible, the aforementioned trio would certainly be among the leaders of this branch of business. Bud Kendrick is known to all his associates and confederates by the unusually pungent quality of his humor, expressed not only in his speech, but also by the art of drawing, in which he excels. His cartoons have gone a long way towards making this edition of The Caduceus successful. Perhaps by combining these two abilities, drawing and inventing humor, Buddy will some day produce sheets for our Sunday papers! EUGENE HOLMES KING Track, C2, 3, 45: Social Committee, C3, 4j, Chairman, C415 English Play, C4jg Stage Manager, German Play, C4j. ARCADIA UNIVERSITY Holmesie expects to become an aviator, on the strength of the hit his uniform made in the soldier play, but we think that's just a little bit over his curly head. He has, however, put in much ground practice during his active career on the track team as pole vaulterg but once upon a time he tried to leap a fenceg that's another story. His has been the guiding hand behind our many successful C?j student dances. As Chairman of the Social Committee, he can be seen any third period considering weighty matters with Miss Hoye, Rice, Warren, Singleton, or any other who hapf pens to be around. We wish Holmesie all the success in the world at his lofty profession, but we hope he doesn't become too much of a high flyer. WALTER FRANCIS KING French Club Committee. BROWN This petite script will introduce to you one of Classical's most ubiqf uitous personages. Walt takes a keen interest in everything pertaining to school affairs, has hosts of friends, a gentlemanly demeanor, and that saving sense of humor which is required to make a success in the diihcult pursuit of knowledge. King has earned the commendation of his com' fades and teachers, alike, for his fine scholarship. He is one of the reasons why this year's French Club has made such a good showing. He is also a colonel in the library brigade, where he is often seen with his brother officers of that illustrious company. So Inultifminded a fellow should go far on the pathway of life. We extend to him our best wishes that he may have no punctures on this most difficult journey. ETHEL ELIZABETH KNOWLES Glee Club, C4jg junior Play. CONNECTICUT Resembling her part in the junior Play, Ethel is the kind of girl one likes to have around. As the nurse in the play, she devoted most of her time to appeasing both Falciglia and Davis, but her spare minutes at school have been divided between the Glee Club and the cheering squad at games -especially Hockey games. Even more outstanding, however, is her perfect attendance record, for she has not missed a day since that eventful September morn when Classical iirst received her. We cannot help being proud of our future student at Connecticut.
