COLONIAL - 1920 JOHN ROBERT CHAPPELL. JR. Chappell blew into our midst just three years ago and in June he leaves us with his sheepskin tucked carefully away. We are hardly surprised, for any man who can grab ads for THE FLAT HAT with the ease that he does, would consider stickmg A.B. after his signature in three years time a small task. As soon as he had registered in his Freshman year, he joined the literary society and ever since his voice has rung throughout the Halls of the Phoenix. She now claims him as her prexie. In his due year. Chap won the right to repre- sent W. and M. in the State Oratorical Contest. He didn ' t win, but he made a good attempt. In the classrooms Chappell is a twister, and on the campus he is known and liked by all. The class of ' 20 considers itself lucky in being able to claim him among her members. We know he will succeed, and wish him good luck. 24

COLONIAL i;,,J£CHO- I920 ' i i — JAMES DURETTE CARNEAL, JR. Although J. D. has left us at the time of this writing, yet his influence for good is still among us. Ha ing secured his Bachelor of Arts degree in February, he has now launched into the great world of business. If he goes after his business as he did after good things while in college, we have nothing but the highest hopes of his ultimate success. Q This youngster took part in all college activities while in college, and every- thing he attempted, he did well. Many organizations and publications can proudly claim him as a member of their staffs or as a business manager. Amid all his duties, he always found time and opportunity to assist in any literary attempt around college. Among the femmes, no explanation of Carneal ' s standing is needed. He is always found among them and can draw them to him by his magnetic powers. However, he never allowed this to detract from his college duties, and hence we find him taking his degree in the short time of three years. Carneal, we expect a great deal of you : march on and don ' t disappoint us. 23

COLONIAL ECHO- 1920 WAI.TKR HU(iHART CHEATHA I fl Now there is no connectidii hot ween the face of the Charlie you see on this page and that CharHe whose name is posted in flaming colors on the front of every movie theatre, and for many weeks no such connection was formed on the campus. But one day there appeared on the upper lip of the above gentle- man a growth of fuzz, the beginning of a moustache. Then and there the wire- less flashed through the mind of every student on the campus, Charlie Chaplin, and it stuck. fl But seriously, the senior class of 1920 expects great things of its black-haired President. An ability to lead men, a keen and energetic mind, backed by a cherry hail-fellow-well-met are characteristics which must carry him to the summit of success. And his accomplishments in college very strongly verify such a predic- tion. His numerous activities attest his interest in aiTairs surrounding him and a mountain of A ' s in the registrar ' s office deny any imputation that he has neglected his classes. fl . character strong as Gibraltar and a heart that is the truest of the true are (|ualities that will ever win him friends. Here ' s to you Charlie! But live up to what the senior class expects of you and William and Mary will have an aluniiuis before whom the world nnist bow in reverence and respect.
