, Q5 QUAKER , D L 5 Wfweax. DONALD McCOLLUM Entered 19 l 8 EI-IOLD one of the few remaining Scottish chieftains. For such he is. Just look at the name and yo'u'll know at once that he cuts up some didoes in the auld countree. We used to remember Mac for his high morals and principles. but lately we have lost all faith in him and so have the rest of those who have heard the glamorous tales of this .wild Highlander that have occasionally filtered through. Mac is an accomplished boy, and has many of the same aspirations as our friend, Bill Stiller in that he takes Latin and is going to Amherst. This is not all of Ikky's category, though. No, indeed, not by a long shot. One of his crowning glories is his misplaced eyebrow or moustache. They were a new acquisition at the beginning of school this year, and we thought. naturally, temporary. The Scotchman put up a brave fight, however, and was allowed to keep them. Later they disappeared, but Mac only had a plan to make them grow out stronger again. We understand that he has a secret prepara- tion for making them grow out much faster. In the summer time Mac is something of a cowboy in Colorado, and people from Lima, Ohio, and Kansas City , W have a fine time making up blood-thirsty tales to fit with his ug' wild and woolly appearance. Mac also plays the flute. and at Doll Show time is a great asset to the orchestra. ff Unlike Sidney Lanier, however, he carries his instru- ment in a case and not up his sleeve. Luck to you, Mad ,fs lf ljfllx . 1, l , Page Thirty- fiuc , ,.

Class Vice-President VAN DUSTEN is the equestrian of our class and is by way of being the - Friends Polo team, since he and Albaugh are the only ones in the school who can stay with a horse for long, They hope to have another member of this team in the near future, for we have heard it rumored that Agnes has also succeeded in staying with a horse of late. Jack was the manager of all the athletic teams this year, and in our opinion was the best we ever had. In case you don't know Markle organized the Maryland Prep School Managers' Association. Van Dusten also started the practice of firing a gun at the end of the halves of a basketball game. Need- less to say this caused quite a commotion and invariably produced such an ef- fect on visiting coaches that they pleaded that Jack use discretion. Only one thing Markle failed to do, he overlooked the need of larger towels, and as everyone knows, that the towels are not large enough to dry anyone but Eddie Marriott, one can realize what a grievous error this was. Markle has not decided where he is going to college. He said something about waiting until he got a good offer from one of them, but we doubt if this is true. Well, Jack, old boy. we wish you the best of luck wherever you go, and we sincerely hope that the windows of the classrooms are equipped with well oiled blinds. Q I T32 .

SX 4 4 ZX 01kNQ lam? ly' HARRIET NOURSE MYERS Entered 1923: Glee Club, Jr., Sr.g Square, Jr., Sr.: Declamation, Jr., Sr.: Doll Show, Jr., Sr.: Dramatics, Sr. VERYONE knows Harriet through her ability as an actress. She has taken part in all the dramatic activities of the school, and was especially good in the Senior Play. Harriet won the Declamation Award last year, and we prophesy that she will do the same this year. This fair lady does not go in for athletics, but she takes the more digni- fied exercise of walking. Doubtlessly some one told her that it is a good reduc- ing exercise. Harry is a good sport in all things, so, of course, she is in the Square. She is always laughing and happy, with a smile for everyone. This smile, by the way, has attracted many of the so-called stronger sex, but they are kept at safe distances by Mush, who is her cousin and protector. Harriet has not informed us of her plans next year, but with her sunny disposition we feel sure that she will be welcome wherever she goes. i , ,, ,.a . ' Page Thirty-six
