HOWARD HASTINGS . . . A happy combination of the serious and the humorous has made Howard a wel- come and beneficial member of student life at Flintridge. His witty sarcasmshave enlivened many of the tedious hours of study, and his serious concentration has gained for him many friends and admirers. Howard has worked for and gotten good grades, and has also found time to be center on the A basketball squad and first-baseman on the varsity baseball team. It looks like a bright future, Howie g good luck!

JAMES TURNER Pope once said, I lisped in numbers, for the numbers came. If Turner said that today, no one would dispute that fact, for his eloquence and fluency of speech which further augment his intense observations of world affairs and life in general are as sudden and unexpected as orchids in a briar patch. Besides his preaching and athletic achievements, he often indulges in treating the school to booming excerpts from operatic scores as styled only by Turner Magnifico. In fact, on a clear day the whole valley is treated. His robust, aristocratic figure is a colorful sight around the campus, and it usually signifies that contentment and friendliness prevail.

DWIGHT PHILLIPS. To attempt a description of Whitey is an arduous task, for he is truly the composite Senior. Heeling a reach in a gale, bringing home a cup from Black Foxe, Hitting across a snowy slope, and even in isolated moments participating in scholarship are all traits that have marked the enviable course of this infectious wit. Laugh and the world laughs with you might be called the precept which has made Whitey Flintridge's own lovable, laughable son. If Flintridge's sons are men of purpose and stability, profound athletes and interpreters of living, all characterized by the clashing eloquence of a cavalier, then Whitey fills his niche perhaps better than anyone else in Flintridge's family.
