PHILIP COLE, IR. Phil Entered: 1936 CORNELL Soccer '38, H '39 Crew '37, '38, '39 Swimming Mgr. '39 Polemics '37, '39 Current Events Club '38 Game Committee '38, '39 I entered Haverford School with an arm in a sling, three years ago. Since that fateful day many other portions of my body have been in similar slings. All in all I have had a won- derful time here, and it is with tender feeling that I pass on to the next stage of my life. I am glad that I was able to take advantage of the grand athletic curriculum and above all that I was able to take part in the first crew to represent Haverford in any waters. I also had the privilege of following one of the finest soccer teams Haverford has ever had. I would like to give one little word of advice to the rising Sixth Form. Don't let Mr. Severinghaus and the Haligoluk board make you write yourself up. It is too hard to be modest and yet ring in a few much-needed words of praise. i Q i EDITORS NOTE: And whatever else you do, Phil, be careful in crossing the street, you might not always be so fortunate as you were one day this past year. 25 K f '9 917115

itll-JIQ YQ ' I9 9 WALTER THOMAS CHASE Walt Entered: 1934 NORTH CAROLINA Camera Club '36, '37, '38 Index Board One autumn in the early twenties a great calamity occurred. Walter Chase was born. Greater was the calamity when in l932, Mr. Chase sent his darling son to Haverford. Since then, I have progressed very slowly but surely, until, with the good grace ot innumerable tutors, I have reached my senior year. My main outside attractions are my car and my collection of swing records. I look back with a deep-felt hor- ror upon the yellow-sheet and Saturday morning demerit ses- sion. All kidding aside, I have had one grand time at Haver- ford and will never forget what it has done for me. Next Fall, I plan to enter Cornell where I expect to continue my edu- cation. Q 1 Q EDITORS NOTE: Walt spends most ol his evenings in the Oaks study hall and the rest of his spare time in the company oi a well-known Main Line figure. 24

tumt GEORGE WATSON COLLINS Entered: 1938 PENNSYLVANIA Football H '39 Basketball H '39 Track '39 Student Council '39 I hail from Swarthmore about twelve miles away. Any time you see a dingy little Ford taking the turn at Railroad Ave. and Bucklane on two wheels at 8:52 A. M., you can just say to yourself, I'd better step aside because here comes George Collins with his 'struggle buggy' full of Haverford School boys from far and near. I am fond of athletics, and it certainly was a great experi- ence to play football and basketball with Bill Nicholson and lim Burdick, the respective captains. One experience which I can't figure out is the fact that I made the Student Council for the second term. I was much pleased. Next year I expect to attend the University of Pennsylvania where I will probably major in Engineering. I manage to get along in some subjects pretty well, but writing such an article as this is just not in my line. 1' i i' EDITORS NOTE: George's record for one year speaks for itself. 26
