He has left the South liehind. hut is still hrmly hound to it hy his large numher of daily letters, which some- times swells to the total of tive or six at one delivery. He loyes his golf, which he plays during the entire season: he loyes hoats. of which he often talks: and he loves cars to such an extent that he can almost tell you the registration numlwer ol' eyery passing moclel. If there is anyone in Lawrencexille who likes hgs. he may he interested to know that Holi is thinking ol' i establishing a Hunter Fig Corporation in Lawrence- yille. He has acquiretl .1 supply in preparation for his l grand opening. which may he in the very near future. Yes. a supply of fifty pounds of the hest quality ngs was recently cleliyeretl to Holm. But since the Lawrenceville market has not yet heen llootletl hy this prodigious l reserye, it must be that he expects a fig shortage and a consequent rise in prices. or perhaps he is just insuring himself against the ravages of an extremely yoracious appetite.

Qs-xii 'Eg l-22.45 fj XE? CJNE can see often moving about Upper a spectral form lost in a daze of deep thought and reverie. He is shrouded in mystery so as to make a casual observer think of magicians and weird, romantic. Far-Eastern sages. However, one is soon brought to realize. with perhaps a jolt, that it is only Defo Hunter quietly pursuing his way. Even though he is quiet and unassuming, Defo likes to air his knowledge and skill. especially in physics. He selects someone not acquainted with that subject and dares him to ask a question from the book. No matter what the question is, Red gives the answer with apparent ease. VVhen the question is easy. Defo shows his scorn of the fellow's choice and passes on. ln a winter term bull session this year the subject of discussion turned to stomachs and their capacity for holding liquids. Defo boasted that he could drink one hundred Coca Colas in a day, and was soon met with many challenges. He was offered tremendous sums of money by various parties to do as he had proposed. but as yet the lure of gold has IIOK prompted him to risk his health. Om' Hzmzfred Eigfzleezz

I-'oil c llouses. Cromwell and XVoodhull. Preparing for l X Font years ago a quiet, bashful fellow entered the Cromwell House. It was Rover Hurd from the windy city of Chicago. I-Ie's still not a lengthy conversationilist but his few well chosen words are sulhcient to ensnare many young women attracted by his tall, handsome ligure. Soon after his arrival in Lawrenceville people began asking who the blonde boy was on the basketball court. Later in the spring Roclge was to be seen on the golf course, and from the Cromwell golf team he has advanced to captain of this year's varsity. He plays other games too, but it's in basketball and golf that his greatest interest lies. This year Roger and roommates Bob Osmun and Iim Lord have become the leading socialites of the west side ol' Upper's lirst Hoor. livery night they may be seen burning the midnight oil entertaining their frequent guests. Yet. in spite of all this night life, Roger always has his assignments prepared. Rodge will be in Stanford next fall: and well miss him, though probably no more than some of those fair young ladies in Montclair. Um' l'IlH1lfl'l'd Tll'6IZI-3' ?
