TED MUNROE Editor-in-Chief of Annual Commissioner of Finance of Student Body C. S. F. Secretary Swimming Team Captain Letterman in Baseball Pi Lambda Kappa (honorary chemistry award) Of all the Seniors, Ted Munroe is the easiest to write. The simple explanation is that he has been by far the busiest. (Also the writer has to get a good word in for his editor!) An inveterate canvas sailor, Ted could launch his ship as well as a tirade against power yachtsmen, at the drop of a hat. Recently his father bought a power launch, and this tack had to be abandoned. Ted is a crack swimmer, and one of the high points of his career took place when he conquered the National Junior champion in his own pool, thus bearding the lion in his den. Down at Balboa, the old salts sit around on the quay and talk of the day Ted will go North to Stan- ford to major in engineering. They also speak of his numerous scholastic achievements while at Flintridge, and they speak the truth when they say that the future is indeed pleasant for Ted Munroe. 25

DAN FROST Student Body President Annual Staff member Hoi Polloi staff C. S. F. President Tennis Team Captain Hunting for Daniel Frost? Vou can usually find him hiding behind a giant soda in the Pig ' n Whistle, for Mr. Frost is always busy with the dizzy round of social affairs which consume the time of similar bon vivants and boulivardiers. Everyone agrees that it was with his frivolous outlook on life in mind that Dan chose Yale as his college. However, this is only one side to the duplex character of the Great Khan of Flintridge. He is also declared to be, by hitherto reliable sources, a good student. He has been a member of the C. S. F. every semester since entering the school. This scholastic ability should help him to become a lawyer, as this is his ambition. However, if you can show him a place and an occupation where he can make a maximum of money with a minimum of effort, he will be exceedingly grateful. 24

THOMAS MELIN Editor-in-Chief of the Hoi Polloi C. S. F. member Czar of the Tumblers Thomas Melin, practically three years at Flintridge, has gained a reputation for being a gourmet. At least this pertains to desserts, for which he shows a profound partiality. Tom also shows a partiality toward resting his pedal extremities while he parades up and down on his hands. Besides carrying the torch for a fine physique, Tom is quite a fashion plate, often dazzling his fellow pupils with his multi-colored wardrobe. Stanford is Tom ' s collegiate destination where he plans to major in electrical engineering. He has been the recipient of the C. S. F. novitiate pin which all hope will prove to be an indication of his college scholarship. If the engineering business turns dull, though, Tom can turn to his true love, the sea. Every year he goes to Balboa where he can sail and think up more queer say- ings to spring on his friends the next semester. ■•- gi 26
