Clio: President Glee CI Adequate commendation cannot be given to Watt, the tall blond from Clay City. Loy comes from a fam- ily of great men and he has already achieved certain heights which form for him an enviable record. He is the president of the senior class, an active Platonian, a true Bachelor, a debater, and an athlete as well. He frequently loses the discus and this year won his letter in football. As a student Loy is also a star, for his grades reveal the reward of persistent and diligent study. He has given his best to the school and will always be a worthy alumnus. Just remember the girl with the friendly smile and greeting for every- one and you have Mary. She is very versatile and her activities cover al- most every phase of college life. Cli- onians will remember her as an in- terested spectator and willing per- former. She served as president of this organization when she acquitted herself very favorably. Mary is a loyal backer of all worthy McKen- drean activities and is, by the way, the leader of our next year ' s football captain. She is a prospective teacher and her personality is a sure indica- tion of her success. Twenty-eight

He por- trayed Romeo in the play given last February when he proved to be an ardent lover and a capable actor. Harold has passed the six-foot mark and we know with this reach and the qualifications which he possesses that he will hold high the banner of the class of ' 29. The almost Puritanical calmness and conscientiousness of Dorothy Helen is relieved now and then by a manifestation of her gentle and kind- ly sense of humor. Uproariousness and Dorothy Helen are complete strangers. Her love of music, par- ticularly the expression of music- through the medium of the piano, rounds out her daily routine of study and the performance of the usual every-day tasks of the student.
