9-'f ERNEST ALDRICH BAILEY, IR. Io Io. E. A. Entered: 1935 MASSACHUSETTS INS'l'I'l'U'l'E OF TECHNOLOGY Honor Roll '35, '37 I entered Haverford School in 1935. I have spent four years here doing nothing, although I love Haverford. During these years the school's biggest worry was: Weitere is Bailey? Strange as it may seem, my favorite subject is Mathematicsg at the bottom are History and English. I have never been a member of any club or on any committees. I have never made a team. I am, however, sorry that I have to leave in Iune, and I would give-lnnything to be able to spend another four delightful years at Haverford. iii' EDITOR'S NOTE: Ernie has the finest sense of humor to be found in this year's graduating class and is known as the originator of many famous and oft-quoted remarks. There should be a place for him as a columnist on a college wit-magazine. A :ae P 1--.V it W t XqmHi, n 15 I9 so

Class '37 Student Council '38 Ring Committee Oaks House Committee '39 We Oaks boys, who are very much in the minority, have always felt that we are really the backbone of the school, but I am going to be the first to say so in writing. For three years I've lived in the Oaks, and those three years hold memories I'l1 never forget. Six of us, Brigg, Crebbs, Spackman, Ross, Voehringer, and I have been inseparable pals. We have been called the Ornery Six, but our friendships and those contacts made with other swell fellows will last a lifetime. I now live in Ridgway Kno cracks, pleasel. It was named for Graham Dripps' Uncle Iacob. It's really the garden spot of the world, but I have great difficulty in convincing the fel- lows of that fact. My athletic ability is almost nil, but I've made a stab at all sports, with crew and golf as favorites. I have aspirations to Amherst and the Bar, but secretly I harbor the desire to return to Philadelphia some day as Ham- let, Romeo, Ieeter Lester, or some other dramatic character. iii EDITORS NOTE: If you make the bar, keep your feet off the rail. 14

'39 Latin Club '39 Current Events Club '39 Honor Roll '36, '37 Game Committee '39 My birthdays started back in 1921 on May 25 in Philadel- phia. At the age of seven I entered school at Waldron Acad- emy in Merion. After finishing seventh grade there, I was sent to Haverford to complete my high school education. Mean- while, the family moved from Overbrook to Haverford. During these years I have had a swell time in the school and have had great fun in playing soccer, tennis and squash. I have become interested in flying, and I hope to learn to fly in the near future. As to my college career, I will enter either Cornell or Prince- ton, probably Cornell, to take up engineering. Later I may branch off into some course which seems better for me. I want to wish all the rest of the class the best of success and luck. i 1' tl' EDlTOR'S NOTE: Gordie is one of the most generous fellows we've ever met. His car, his money, and even his shirt can be had for the asking. 16
