Scientifically inclined, Goldie has always beaten around the 100 per cent mark in Physics and Chemistry. He practically taught a class of fellow students taking these courses. With the scientific background of Lawrenceville, Ed has the ' ambition of becoming an aeronautical engineer .... Although he is forbidden to play basketball because of a bad back, he enjoys it very much. Fifth Form basketballers will remember his eliicient refereeing dur- ing scrimmagesl . . . Studies very diligently and is never ranked below the 93 percentile mark .... A daily newspaper is an essential factor in his existence. . . .

Getting up on time is not one of Goldie's stronger points, and unquestionably his Cum Laude Chapel cuts are extremely convenient. i One Hundred Ten

ONE might invest on Charles 'iTall, Dark, and Handsome Gordon the oflicial laurels of being the real Romeo of the Lodge. Harry Harrison, his roommate, and the other Lodgites unanimously voted him the best looking in their house. Rumor has stated that a certain damsel, who easily hlls luliet's shoes in this combination, whole- heartedly votes in the athrmative on this question. . . . Can dress in two minutes lthis may be a trifle exaggeratedj for breakfast every morning when neces- sary, which is practically every morning .... Spark- plug of the Lodge touch-football teams which used to conHict on the temporary playing field at the side of the house .... Mr. lameson makes Charlie the butt of his most biting humor. You are familiar with his kind of humor, arent you? NVell, stay away from it. l ...1 -X dancer par excellence and one of those unavoid- able Math wizards .... Bowling milk bottles at mid- night with a one-time Laurentian is an example of his 1 very subtle pranks .... His humor is constant, and occasionally funny. I One Hzuzdred Eleven
