He is one of l7uckie's standbys in analytics, and also has a fondness for Adolf and the Dutch, His strongest point is his love for the fairer sex and the terpsichorean art. Never :1 hop passes by, but that Davy's stalwart form is seen swaying to and fro to the sweet strains of music, while some fair one gazes enrap- tured into his eyes. George is very fond of the Army, and is going to enter it this spring, and later he expects to settle down on Prince George Street. Annapolis, to spend the rest of his life. He always believes that the best way-the most convincing way- to prove ones capability is by actions, not words. Such a man will be found at the top, because he deserves to be there. NVe wish him every success. K . KV W3 3. . V-.A 51

Motto: Tn fimouizi fo .wnicll1iz1g. ES, Shorty has done it. What? Why confirmed his Freshman year speculation that as soon as he eould get kind 'o used to his new domicile and stop looking up at the 3 high buildings and walk on the hard pavements without getting sore feet, he'd start right out and show us what he's made of, And boys, he has! Right! He kids them all. Girls are just girls 'with VValter, and no more, but with them he is a tangible objectification of some long remembered dream. Desired by all, he ruthlessly brushes them aside, showing partiality for but one. 'Who? Her name is -----, but l'd better not tell. More than one might, claim the distinction, you know. Just as the same sweet fragrance, the same bright color lures bee after bee to a beautiful Hower so Walter's smile, his win- some manner, his cute little manly appearance serves him. And basket ball! Wow! Shorty's long suit. Chewing gum and score book, contracts, guarantees, rules, Eastern trips and trips South, girls, and yes, Relay Station on Penn. Ave., Baltimore, din- ners, theatre parties, but I can never get it all straightened out. Somehow NValter did. No sir, you lose your bet. He does play baseball and well. But he's a copyist at that. You know how old Dcmosthenes atc pebbles? Well, Walter ate coal cinders once. Why? Oh, just to keep the crows from hearing him, but they did, I reckon. Seriously, we all like Walter for his good nature, his student, ability, his athletic accomplishments, and--for his just being Walter. May he sip long and deep from the cup of happiness and success. Ach! Spaghetti! 50

l l9I7 JOHN C. FELL, ANNAPOLIS, Mn. Scientific. Phi Sigma Kappa Fraternity. Social Editor Rat-Tat C313 Philo- mathean Literary Society CI, 2, 3, 413 Tennis Team CI, 2, 3, 415 Junior Rifle Cluh, CI, 2, 3, 413 Fourth Sergeant Co. B C315 Third Sergeant Co. A C41, Captain Tennis Team C41 3 Senior Prom Committee. K Motto: To take McLochIin's Iaurnls - 066 , away from him and to show Norris Wil- liams a few points about the game. ES-John-just plain John as he was when he came to us, he is the curly-headed lad that we hear so much of 'is '1 tennis player, and whom we sez. so often cn the courts in the spring In the Prep School John showed us uh it he knew about the game, and ' e c 1 - l 1 C ., .AW ' i . ' P ' ' 1 iffilfkis in his Freshman year he made the team and he has held his place ever since. As a man of society it is needless to say much, for everyone knows in Crahtown that that is where John shines whenever there is to be a party. It makes no difference where, the first thing one sees is John in his Henry Limousine and always with an escort. As a student, John started off like a whirlwind, standing among the first three in his class in the Preparatory School, but this couldn't last, for in his Freshman year he learned to dance, which is fatal to so many, and it was then that he found out how attractive he really was. But John has always had a special turn for the work in some of thc departments, as German C?1, Mathematics C?1, and Military V Science C?1. In the latter for his proficiency, he has attained the C highest honor, being made General of the Clean Sleeve Brigade. John is one of the best all-around men in the class, heing known by his good nature, generosity and humor. l-le is very apt to make good in any line that he may choose, and it is out most sincere wish that he does succeed with the highest honors. 52
