ANDREW BELL (;rf.f,nsb()R(), n. c. ■ -liuly M AlKICULA ' IKI) 1922 Eirst Year: I ' rivate Co. B, Varsity Foot- hall, ( ' i.fillion Clul), N. C. Chili, Piililic Speaking. This is Andy ' s first year with us and we are sorry he did not join us sooner. Then too, we wish he was going to he with us hinger, for we woukl hke to see him when he reaches that higher point that we know he will attain. He came to us with a good athletic record, and he has lived up to it. He was a mainstay in the hackfield ol the fo()tl alI team of ' 2Z, and is some- what of a horse on the cinder path. Andy leaves us with the intention of at- tending Carolina next year. Here ' s luck, y ndv, from the Class of ' 23.

LEWIS L. ALLEN CHARLES TOWN, W. VA. Al Matriculated 1922 First Year : Private Co. B, Wrestling Squad, Football Squad, Track Squad, Swimming Team, Rifle Team, Cotillion Cluli, W. Va, Chill, Pul)lic Sjicaking. We have all seen good men come and go at old F. Ivl. S., and here is another notable addition, who will be missed by many. This is Al ' s first and last year on the hill, and none can say that he has not done his best for b ' isliliurne. His ])ersonality and good humor have gained for him a large number of friends, both in school and out. Al first won our admiration and praise in the classroom, being a shark in most any subject. His ability, howe er, is not con- fined to academic work, he hits the line as hard as any in footliall, as well as hitting the bullseye nuist every time. His resolute perseverence and determination are indeed great assets, and with these qualities, in ad- dition to his character, we have no fear for his future. While Al is not a devoted Lady ' s man, he docs spend a large part of his time writing to his girl back home. Al is always in a good humor, and ready to help out and do his i)art in anything asked of him. We ' ll miss you, boy, but the Class of ' 23 is for you and wishes ' ou every success.

HENRY BOTELER eminence, ky. Matriculated 1920 First Year : Private Co. A, Travelers • hill. Second Year; I ' rixatc Co, A, Travelers Clul , Public Speaking. Third Year : Private Co. A, Cosmopolitan Club, I ' ulilic Speaking. Here we have lief ore us, kind readers, a lad who hails frcmi the nati(jnally-known i;i;ie Grass Country — Kentucky — further- more, we ha e been told that he hails (not being able to locate his home town on any of our maps, wc were forced ti i ask his Hume State friends as to what iiart of Kentucky he resides in) frcim the Bluest section of the Blue Grass country. Henry did not return to us after Christmas last year. He decided to try Tennessee Mili- tary Institute. September, 1922, found Henry back in our midst, and he recei ed a hearty welcome. He says that T. Al. I. is a good school, but dear old Fishburne has them all beat. He neither dances nor is he an athlete, but let us tell y( iu he (hies find enjoyment in lircarms. The number of weapons in his room reminds one of an ar- senal ; howe er, he does not believe in dis- l)laying them. Henry is a ratlier quiet, (U ' ep-thinking lad, and he keeps to himself most of the time, ne cr-the-less he has many friends in school. He exhibits much interest in the many phases of school life, and during his stay with us liis conduct has remained free from all blemishes. Where wc will next hear from him is unknown, for he is undecided as to what liis life ' s work shall be, but some day we e.xpcct in- formation relative to the fact that he made good. - u rc -oir.
