Decoration Committee Final Ball, 1925. Member Big Three. Baseball, 1924-25-26. Tell Daly that he is dumb, and he will not resent the charge. Accuse him of being a low-brow, and he'll simply return the inevitable So's your ol' man. Criticize his taste in choice of books and poetry, and he'll remain good natured. But of all the insulting epithets in the American lan-guage, the most repugnant to Bigelow is hick. He believes that this word of four letters, meaning a gullible one, contains more contempt and malice than any other expression in the pungent vocabulary of the Jazz Age. He is straight, honest, and a good mixer-one to whom we wish all success in his efforts. You don't say! PJ Page Sixteen THOMAS V. COFFIN, JR. Hope, New Mexico IKT0m,!I f!R0Sy!! Two years. Rabbit, 1924-25. Corporal, Ser- geant, 1925-26. Track, 1924-25. Wl'rat's in a name? Mr. Webster defines a coffin as a chest or case for a last resting place. From the chron- icles of the editor, we note an applica- tion of the definition to this personage, inasmuch as both are seemingly solemn, unexpectedly in demand, and fill va useful place in civilized communities. Being incurious-, we have never delved into Rosy's past, but we are assured- that there are no stains upon his char- acter, and believe it. Tom is the kind of m-an that we are all glad to know- good natured, pleasant and considerate. We hope that he will receive his just reward, and the success that such a type merits.

Prep basketball, 1924-25. Var- sity Basketball, 1925-26. Dramatics: It Pays to Advertise, The Trysting Place, Baby Mine. Cheer Leader, 1925-26. Member M. A. A. Club. This enthusiastic and promising young man bounced in from wicked San Francisco two years ago in a pair of golf knickers, and has bounced his way through a very -successful career into fame and popularity. Bounced is the proper word to describe his school life, because he has been constantly on the jump, backing everything the cadets have done. His enthusiasm and loyalty have won him the position of cheer leader, made famous by such men as Somerville and Tinkle. If -Clary continues his work else- where with the -same spirit that has characterized it here, we are quite sure that his success will be as great as it has been during his cadet days. All right, men-fifteen for the team! GEORGE ROBERTSON CLARK, JR. Corpus Christi, Texas H01'g'ie, Tuff1fe Three years. Rabbit, 1923-24. Sergeant. 1924-25. Captain, 1925-26. Mounted Pistol Ex- pert. Auto-rifle Sharpshooter, Rifle Marksman Swordsman. Final Ball Committee, 1925. Bronco Hall of Fame, 1926. Behold! Ladies and gentlemen, here we have a rare specimen. Quality, and not quantity, is Georgeis motto. Some accuse him of being hardboil- ed, but how could the cutest cadet really be mean? Babies cry for him, old maids sigh for him, yet indifferent Horgie goes blithely onward-his nose in the air and his feet on the ground. But he'1l fall some day. We have seen mighty strange cases this year, and know that it only takes time to produce THE girl. As a cadet and troop commander, George has proven his worthiness. As a friend, we know of none more sincere. Regretfully do we part with you, George, and confidently do we anticipate your future. TZLat's my idea! 1 lb -i f . 1 , i 5 my e SM H- V' .ag '26 gr Page Fifteen w

Ah so true, so faithful, so kind, and so good! For two long years of military life, Bob has let nothing deter him from the path of sweet love. But that isn't all-he has taken advantage of his time in other ways. He is a consistent work- er in the class room, knows his drill, has many friends, and cheerfully smiles at all times-even in his sleep. You haven't told us where you are J going next year, partner, but we know 0 you will do well. Just remember, Bob- Q ' 24 once an Institute man, always an Insti- Q tute man!

Yes' sir, Happy says he's young- young and handsome. She insists his eyes are as coals of fire, his lips passion- ate, and pleadingg his body tall, stalwart, and virile. Oh boy how jealous we are! DeYump's favorite food is corn - bread. Ever since some one told him it was imported from Kansas, he has devoured it with great gusto.
