He nearly always has a perfect mark in studies. Athletics, too, are of interest to Eskie. He is a member of the Second Concordians and plays on the varsity nine. Hugo Kleiner, Weland, Ontario, Canada Corporal ' 14. First Sergeant and Lieuten- ant ' 15. A few years ago, Hugo ' s gentle manners and voice br ought him the nickname Girlie. Now, however, since he has passed the six-foot mark and acquired the punch of a Willard, this name would be quite out of place. With the exception of coming from Canada, Hugo is a pretty good fellow. 22

Fatty is one of the unlucky who are forced to bear more than the usual amount of the class ' s teasing. His motto, how- ever, is : I can ' t worry. Although he weighs two hundred pounds, Meinz manages to get out and catch for the class team. Everything, except Hebrew, agrees with him. His chief pastime is sleeping. Herbert Mueller, Port Huron, Mich. Corporal ' 13. Sergeant ' 14. Lieutenant ' 15. Glee Club. Gym Committee. Our official pugilist. Tough is always poking his fists into somebody else ' s ribs. When not doing this, he either sings or plays his mouth organ. He takes an inter- est in all branches of athletics, and has won a place on the track team. Tough ' s watchword is: Come on, fellows, let ' s do something. 24
