FLORENCE VIRGINIA DOUGLAS “Swede” General C Undecided Hi-Tri; Tennis 4; Banking Chairman 4; Archery 1; Field Day 2. “The hair brained chatter of irresponsible frivolity.” Florence derives pleasure from everything, and therefore gives pleasure to everyone. Her happy laugh is one of this class’s prides. FRANCIS DOWNEY “Frank” “Wart? General A Rutgers “Give me the heart to fight—and lose.’ Frank has passed successfully over one of the steps in his life. We hope he does as well in the rest. CUO HOIAD IEC JOROIR UNI LE dis, “Cu” Scientific Amherst Senior Football Manager 4. “Were there no heaven nor hell I should be honest.” “Cliff” is admired for his straig ht-forwardness and his ability to accomplish things without trouble.
