This was due to the fact that l am an Englishman and had been brought up on the sterner methods of the English boarding school. I belong to the select group of Oaks boys. My real home is in Pine Valley, New Iersey. These years in the Oaks have been spent in thinking out, together with the other members of the Secret Six, various Ways of assisting Mr. Covert. When I first went out lor football, I was teased foricalling football shoes football boots. Such phrases rise from my throat from sheer patriot- ism. If and when l graduateyl hope to complete my education at North Carolina, ' iii EDITORS NOTE: Although Pete is the white hope from England land we're not sure what that meansl, we do know that Doc Newhall spends too much time trying to keep him awake in Latin class. 18

IAMES K. BOAK lim Entered: 1937 DARTMOUTH Baseball '38, '39 Squash '39 Golf '39 Current Events Club '38 Polemics '39 Honor Roll '38, '39 I was born in Philadelphia, but at the tender age of six months I began to have a longing for adventure, and I started out to see the world. During my travels I have attended fif- teen schools. Finally, coming back to the city where I started, I entered Haverford fthe sixteenthl in 1936 and have been try- ing to keep an Honor Pin ever since. That elusive 80 is a hard thing to catch, it can be so near and yet so far. I have not decided definitely what I am going to do after I graduate tif I dol. I would like to go to the Naval Academy, but if that doesn't work out, I will probably be in some college studying architecture or engineering. People have told me that I would make a good lawyer because of my ability at talking my Way out of demerits and into better marks, but I don't agree with them. If you ever come to Hanover, you might look me up, but my future is so uncertain that I will say no more than Good-by and good luck. iii EDITORS NOTE: If you ever damage a vocal chord, go borrow one from Iim. We're sure he'll have several to spare. 17 ll W'- CUI- I9 39

,M ,Y I WILLIAM I. BROOKS Bill Entered: 1938 MICHIGAN OR PENN STATE Football '39 Camera Club '39 Orchestra '39 My birth took place in Philadelphia, February 22, 1920. At the age of three I moved to Ridley Park. After twelve years of labor, I graduated from the public school there. The Haver- ford School was my choice for a year of college preparatory work before entering a higher institution of learning. My hobbies are photography and music., I ,am a member of the Camera Club. My bassfiddle affords me much enjoy- ment and a fair income. My foremost subject, both from the standpoint of marks and enjoyment, is trigonometry. English heads the list of dislikes. Chemical Engineering is my choice for a vocation. I am undecided, as yet, where I will go to college. So long. 19 S
