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

' ,- . , . . 1 1 x,x,,.,: Davy comes from just outside of Crabtown, a place namezl St. Khlargarets. M, - h' A. ..t- -. -'-it FPC but he is considered one of the members of the rtnouned toxin bunth like all' he rest of them, Davy is a good student and a hard worker CFB. 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

C l9l7 SAMUEL WESLEY FREENEY. Sam, Buggywhip, Cuckoo HIEBRON, Mn. Latin-Scicutifc. Kappa Alpha Fraternity.

Q Motto: Beat out Jack Ness for his fflb-U particular class of necessarv mdniduils which you nex er torgct tfter you hive once ,Ns met them Long, lean and lanky Cuckoo is a ball pl tycil from the ground up 244126 He covers the initial sack with the agility of a cat, in running bases he-resembles Ty Cobb, and when it comes to heaving the pill --well Walter Johnson isn't in it. His chief delight is in knocking the ball out of the lot and for that reason one usually linds.his name in the clean-up position of the lineup. A St. John's game would be incomplete with- out Sam's pep and wrangling with the umpire. It would take a volume to enumerate all of Sam's achievements. Many were the falls he took out of 'fLouie Miles and other visitors of Junior lioorg but during the past year he has let them off easy. Although Sam's home town is in the Garden Spot of the Worldf, the Eastern Shoi, he spends much of his time roaming around the western parts of Maryland. lt is true, he played ball up that way during the sunnner months, but they don't play ball during the Christmas holidays. Evidently the attraction is very great, though not baseball. We wonder what it is? Taken as a whole, you'll have to go a long way to beat Sam. lt canft be done. IUGGYWHIP SAM, the prosperous' manager of the 1916 football team, belongs to that . ' ., 'nz.','n. L 53
