•Seniors LossiE Morris, A. B. OTdlloii, Jllmois With a mischievous twinkle in his eyes, a pleasant disposition and a friendly manner, Lossie seems to have found the secret to creep into the hearts of his classmates. Unassuming usually, blatant never, this young minister has a future before him in the field to which his Master has called him. Though Lossie has been with us only one year, he leaves McKen- dree a true son of his Alma Mater. PARK COLLEGE, ' ii. ' y Robert Peach, A. B. Lebanon. Illmo.s With a pleasing baritone voice, a luxuriant crop of light hair, keen intellect and excellent acting abilities, Robert is an asset unto himself. This explains in part his success in musical operettas. From early childhood, Robert long aspired to attend McKen- dree College, on the campus of which he has romped many a day. His dream has more than come true, for he is one of the Cen- tennial class. He believes in education for business. GLEE CLUB, •lyii: PRESIDENT PHILO, EXPRESSING WILLIE; ' AS YOU LIKE IT; BOHEMIAN GIRL: ' MARTHA; LASS O ' LIMERICK TOWN; MESSIAH. Fay Ragland, A. B. Greennllc, llUnois It is rather diiEcult to tell about Fay without telling about May at the same time. The twins spent two and one-half years in Green- ville College and one-half year in DePauw University. Wanting to graduate from the right place, they came to Mc- Kendree to conclude their college careers. At first they seemed to be quiet and reserved, but on better acquaintance they are known to be right jolly. Continued — in May ' s write-up. GREENVILLE COLLEGE, ' 25. ' 26; DePAUW UNIVERSITY, ' 27. May Ragland, A. B Greenville, Illinois If any distinction can be made, this half of the twins is the more mischievous. Both are excellent scholars and are interested in other activities too. By exhibiting skill in basketball they won their college G ' s in this sport. May was also yell leader for her class. These girls are good examples of true sisterly love. GREENVILLE COLLEGE, ' is.

IS characterized by a generous still waters run deep, and when it which he believes, then his True to his type, this on the field of collegiate amount of reserve. But, comes to a matter of principles strong character is truly revealed. However, his reserve did not keep his thoughts from lightly turning to love. It would not at all be surprising if he soon lent his ears to the Heavenly strains from Lohengrin. PHILO; BACHELORS; TRACK. ' 16. ' 2-. ' 28, FOOTBALL, ' 28; BASEB.

Granite City, Illniois When a man goes out for football practice every day for four consecutive seasons without earning a letter, he certainly must be a man overflowing with the spirit of self-sacrifice, abounding with persistence, and especially fond of hard knocks. That introduces Rocky. Diminutive in size, Rocky played an inconspicuous, but heroic, role in athletics. But the honors he lost in football he gained as the custodian of our most beloved pet bear. Rocky wisely chose a field of service — the ministry. PLATO; Y. M. C. A.; CHEER LEADER, ■2;. ■26. -27. Helen Douglas, A. B. Oblong, llmois Doug is McKendree ' s most famous man-hater. All but John Hall have given up hopes of ever obtaining her coveted smile. He still pursues her steadily, furiously, yea — even vigorously, but Helen will have none of him. Leap Year dates cause her to lose no sleep, for she knows John ' s persistence will urge him to ask for just one date. Alas, alack! Doug, we wish you joy! McKENDREE REVIEW STAFF. -26. ' 27; W SECRETARY-TREASURER JUNIOR CLASS. cKENDREAN STAFF. Lela Sites, A. B. Salem, Illinois Lela is small and peppy, and one of her chief delights is a mid- night feast. Last year she distinguished herself as a member of the Eternal Triangle, and has proved to be the survival of the fittest. She IS not thinking in terms proportionate to her advancement in the field of mathematics, as this year she is thinking in fewer numbers. Having linguistic possibilities, she is especially interested in the romance languages. CLIO PRESIDENT; MATH CLUB SECRETARY.

antiiu ' s Sam Kotelly, A. B. Chautauqua, ew Tor A congenial personality, a ready wit, and the ability to speak well in several languages, peculiarly fit this ambitious young man for his chosen profession — law. His inclination to work hard and his ability to keep at it promise Sam the success which he deserves. Clean in thought and conduct, this Albanian boy unconsciously plays to advantage the best attribute for making friends. Naturally a future judge would blush when a girl tries to kiss him. PLATO; GLEE CLUB. Alfred Crossley, B. S. OTaUon, lUmo s Beneath a rather quiet and pleasing personality, the explorer in human nature will find a heart of gold and sterling qualities of a faithful friend in this young lad. His character, clean intellect and sincere attitude towards others make him a good pal for any one. Though not spectacular, Al will achieve a high place in the chemical or business world, with his perseverance and stick-to-it- iveness. A pretty little girl at Belleville holds his heart in her little hand, and this explains why Al has rather neglected our fair McKendree maidens. WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY. ■24- Oliver Wahl, A. B. EdwardsviUe, llhnon Quiet and reserved, Oliver has the ability to make his violin, which he loves, do the talking for him. At his hands, this instru- ment, otherwise inanimate and lifeless, laughs with glee, cries with sadness, sighs with longing. To his active interest is due the credit for the organization of the McKendree band and orchestra. It is hoped by those who know of his activities, that he will remain at his post to tontinue his good work. Anthony Sigillito, A. B. St. Loms, Misscurt Coming to McKendree in his senior year, Sig at once took an active interest in several student organizations and became a true McKendrean. His congenial and sociable nature has made for him numerous friends from Italy, his birthplace, to McKendree. His record in college, his genuine earnestness in performing his work, and his confidence in himself assure success in his chosen profession. Girls? Well — he prefers blondes and brunettes. ThrtyTwo
