Jim came t(i us last year and at (ince made himself loved liy all, due jiartly to his pleasing personality and ]iartly to his ex- cellent school spirit. Me is always in a good humor, and just as willing to hel]i one of the hoys as to escort one of the lair sex to a lance, or make one ol his sjiec- tacular plays on the gridiron. S]ieaking ol the fair sex reminds us that Jim is one of our most widely known social lions, luuing lieen present at e ery school and private entertainment during his two years ' sojourn with us. We hear that he has an Affaire d ' amour in e ery town trom Bristol to Eort I )efiance ; howexer, this is only one of his minor attainments. It is on the gridiron where jim really shines. His first year it was disco ered that all he lacked was a little veight, when he re- turned this year all who saw our star center could readily see that he had gained this re- quirement. East year Jim was one ol our most military Keydets, and he has lieen rewarded this year with raiiid a l ance- metits now lieing thi ' highest ranking sec- ond year man on the hill, kie expects to enter V.

ALEXANDER JONES CHEEK HENDERSON, N. C. ■ ' ■ ■■ Slim Matriculated 1922 First Year : Private Co. A, Baseball Squad, Basketball Squad, Tennis Team, Rifle Team, Cotillion Club, Carolina Club, Public Speaking. Slim is another one of those proud North Carolina Tar Heels, and a great booster of it. Although this is his first year, he has gained many friends, not only among the new cadets, but also stands ex- ceptionally well with the ' ' Old Fellows. He got this way by attending to his own business and doing the things which are right. We might not call him an athlete in every sense of the word, but he has proven that he possesses spirit. He missed the basket-ball team by the narrowest margin, and was a valuable member of the baseball squad. Pie is one of those long-legged, happy-go-lucky fellows who mixes with everyone. Well, old boy, we will be sorry to have you leave us, but we know the world will gain another good citizen.
