If silence is golden, then Riley is rich; for he seems to have mastered the art of saying much in a few words. For having l een as deep as the still water and as natural as a blade of grass, let us rcmcm! cr Riley. Unceremonius, unassuming, unaffected and uncomplaining; that's Riley.

Council; Intramural Basketball; Dormitory Council; John Miller Dickey Society; Pan-Hellenic Council; Student Instructor; Polemarch of Kappa; Presi- dent of Science Club; President of Senior Class. In diametrical contradiction to an abiding contention that nothing good can come out of Bluciicld. Rollins has proved to l e Bluefield’s pricelsss gift to Lincoln. As a leader, a student and a gentleman, he has established a record here which other Virginians will find difficult to excel. Who shall ascend into the hills of success? . . . Rollins, and by way of Bluciicld. Casual, companionable, capable and candid; that's Rollins. 18

(Hama MILTON ARTHUR GALAMISON Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Omega Psi Phi HISTORY ExTRA-CuRRlCULARS: Student Council; Seminary Librarian; Intramural Basketball and Football; John Miller Dickey Society; Keeper of Records of Omega; Debating Society; Vice-President of Dramatic Club; Literary Editor of Lincolnian; Director of Athletic Publicity; Editor-in-Chief of Lion; President of Philadelphia Club. From Philadelphia by way of St. Augustine in North Carolina. Their loss, Lincoln's gain. Came, saw and took Lincoln by storm. Apostle of spiritual pugnacity and militant determination, well rounded in lile's better mores: well grounded in her basic facts: well founded in her aspiring faith. The candle of the Lord. Gifted, articulate, luminous, ardent, mental, integrated, salutary, objective, natural (Dr. Jesse Barber). Extra-Curriculars: Dormitory Council, Dormitory Proctor; Intramural Softball; Intramural Basketball. The thirst for knowledge manifested by Persons is indeed commendable, however insatiable. Persons' second desire is to have his masculine intrepidity admired by the ladies, and he has succeeded. With women who know men best, it's Persons two to one. Meditative, mature, multanimous and metropolitan; that’s Persons. 17

Daddy HERNDON WHITE. Jr. Bai.ti.mork, Maryland Kappa Alpha Psi BIOLOGY Extra-Curriculars: Football; Track Team; Basketball Team; Varsity Club; Dormitory Council; President of Baltimore Club; Philosophy Club. To the composer, life is a song; to the dramatist, life is a stage; to Daddy White, life is just another 440. White is another, among millions of Americans, who finds it difficult to live within his means. This invariably entails both living within the means of others and living in luxury. It's a wonderful world. Sociable, skeptical, solicitous and slumbrous; that’s White. THE EMPTY CHAIR Extra-Curricular: War. An empty chair ... a forsaken paddle, a rabble hat that awaits the return of its owner. ... a fading name inscribed inconspicuously in the corner of a room . . . these arc evidences of a friend who once was here, but now is gone. And memories! There will always be memories of him whose destiny has l een miscarried by outrageous lortune. Clothed in drab khaki, he plods his way wearily along some foreign shore. Time has not changed his dreams, nor can fate permanently alter his course. Even the longest road turns somewhere. May the Almighty God in whose province it lies to bend the road grant his return soon. Soon, old pal; your chair, your paddle, your hat and your classmates are waiting. Misapplied, miscarried, misdirected and missed; that's my friend. 19
