fiW0 ElS THE CADUCEUS JOHN QUATTROCCHIMIR. Tennis, C435 Debating, CID, Baseball, f4j. BROWN Folks who judge another's stature by the length of his name would, I'm afraid, miss their mark in guessing johnny's size. But size doesn't mean a thing, for what he lacks in inches he more than makes up for in gray matter and mental ability. In geometry, especially, he learns his theorems as if he had written the book himself. We might mention the fact that he wields a pointer like a rapier, and woefbetide the unfortunate triangle which Riils to parry his thrusts! If he employs whatever weapons he takes up in life's duel as readily as he does his pointer, we feel certain that life will get the worst of the encounter. MADELEINE AUGUSTINE REILLY Basketball, fljg Glee Club, Cl, 2, 3, 4Dg Orchestra, Cl, 2, 3jg Baseball, UD. R. I. C. E. Hark! Heels! Why that's our Madeleine Cnot Madelinel walking down the corridor without her O'Sullivans'. With a congenial smile for everyone, Madeleine has been a delight and help to her classmates. A queer sound in class needn't alarm you, it's just another of Giggles famous outbursts. This girl never misses a single social event, and is always besieged by the opposite sex. She will continue her studies at R. I. C. E. and perhaps will soon be the recipient of shining red apples from some small wanderer on the road to knowledge. Music plays a major part in her life, most anything from this classmate! RICHARD RICE Orchestra, CI, Z, 3, -Og Class Treasurer, C3, 4jg Soccer, Cl, 2, 41, German Play: Senior Play BROWN Itls not this l1oy's fault that Venus and Zeus have never stepped down from their high perch in the hall, and begun to trip the light fantastic, to some hot rhythm or low moans. No sir! 'Cause he's done everything else but with that old sax of his. And is he clever? Knowing how healthful it is to take a walk every day he used to do so faithfully, until someone casually suggested that the third period is not the time for even the Class Treasurer to perambulate. Perhaps there's a method in his apparently aimless wanderings he's going to promenade up and down College Hill considerably in the next four years. and, since musicians are supposed to be temperamental, be prepared for AUDREY ELIZABETH RILEY Glee Club, CZ, 31. R. I. C. E. Haste thee, Nymph, and bring with thee, jest, and youthful jollityn seems to be Audrey's philosophy. In the classfroom, she is sober, stead' fast, and demuref' but out of school, she is full of quips and cranks, and wanton wilesf' Although this may be merely an outward impression, her most intimate friends know how studious and how industrious she is when she settles down to her work. We all know that your smile will be like a modern racer in speeding you over the highfroads to success, Audrey.

GEORGE POPKIN y Q'vjiWQfSW 2 THE GADUGEUS HOWARD EATON PIKE DUKE UNIVERSITY Tall, blonde, and bluefeyed, Howard is the despair of young ladies and teachers alike. Credit is due him for his noble bearing up under diflif culties in one of the English Plays. He played the role of villain very creditably, although villains are popularly supposed to be dark and mousf tached. Messieurs Pike and Batchelder have a little game that they play in Room 6 f--Dick opens the windows, whereupon Howie pulls a little chain, thereby keeping the temperature of the room well above zero. Friend Howard is Ike of the partnership, Ike and Pahearn, Inc., who well, we give up, you guess. BROWN George isn't reserved. He just doesn't know what to make of a wild bunch of seniors who go tearing up and down the corridors, or make a beef line for the lunchroom when the bell rings. He is the kind of a fellow that forms a sort of anchorage. He's like a mountain, or the foundation of a great building. Things may rage around him but he stands firm. While others fool away their time, he takes out a book and gains precious moments. Well, George, the man who can stand immovable in a time of stress is the man who is appreciated. just hold on to your poise, you'll have no cause for worry. JOSEPHINE POPLOSKY GIBBS Last spring, Thomas Edison gave some rize examples in a nationfwide examination. Wilbur stbn ttainin th highest average, won fame by becoming the bright n he coui r iss Hoyt gives prize examples in Math. an o : a al c out n top. So by the Axiom of Substitution 1 Su traction Q Pop y measures only 5' 3 in the shade, and . uston is a g d si ffooterj eet our own feminine Wilbur, to demure an shy in appearance, but in reality, another of those keen Shinkers who have been rewarded by a Summa Cum Laude key. WALTER KENYON PULLEN I Say! Did you ever see such a slickflooking person? Perhaps. But not in this town. We'll have you know, too, that his character is by no means camouflaged by personal appearance. Ken is one hundred per cent sterling. if you know what that means, and if you don't, get acquainted soon, you will surely like him. He, too, has his secrets. Every Wednesday he wears a hat, and parts his hair on the right. But this is nobody's business. Ken devotes much time to Boy Scout Activities, and it may interest you to know that he holds an office not to be sniffed at. Well, don't take in any wooden nickels, my boy.

'faii-W sssQ'Q'S1 THE CADUCEUS ERNEST THOMAS ROBARGE Soccer, QD. PALMER COLLEGE or CHIROPRACTICS Ernie is quite wellfknown as one who sticks to his opinion when it is once made, and can usually show you how it is true and why you are wrong. Two years ago he made himself quite troublesome during study periods for certain classes by asking a certain teacher certain questions, which cerf tain members of said class thought quite unnecessary. We hear that in the last year his desire for knowledge of history has increased greatly. He also has made some very interesting experiments in connection with physiof graphy. He intends to go to the Palmer College of Chiropractics and study professional bonefbreakingf' HELEN LILLIAN SALMIN Clee Club, CD5 Tennis, fljg Social Committee, C435 Senior Play, Baseball, CU. PEMBROKE Lillian--blonde and beautiful'-but by no means dumb! Whenever there is any laughter in her corner of the room, you may be sure Lil is at the bottom of it. She also likes to crunch candy after lunch! She and her friend Alice are faithful patronesses of the student dances, where together they exhibit their excellent terpsichorean art. In the future, Lil is going to practice holding hands as a profession4she is out to conquer the medical world. Oh for the day when she may take our pulse! MILTON SCHNEIDER Track, Cl, 2, 3, 41. P. C. A statement is made by a teacher: a comment is made by a pupil. The teacher might be any one of the faculty, but the pupil could be none other than Milt. So humorous is he that scarcely does a day pass without a teacher's laugh, induced by his witticisms. His arguments will live in the history of the school long after his departure. Milt intends to enter Providence College in the fall, where he will certainly add to the honor and respect of Classical. MILTON GEORGE SCRIBNER Tennis, Cl, 2, 3, 41. BROWN Behold our future Tilden. Scribby has faced many a tense battle on the courts for dear old Classical. His success in tennis has been equalled only by his acumen in his studies, in which he is a shark. Milt further shows his ambition by patronizing the Public Library exclusively and frequentlyg in fact, he has almost become one of its fixtures. Next year he will venture further into the realms of knowledge by laboriously toiling up Waterman Street Hill. We hope that when he has attained the heights he will not forget the classmates who suffered with him at Classical.
