GEORGE H. BRINLEY The perennial class president: Georges broad shoulders have carried far more than his share of responsibility for the last four years. He is looked to by many of his associates to set the pace. After his apprenticeship as head waiter and on the student council, some one has suggested that Mussolini might find him a valuable assistant.

SAMUEL JAMES ORR, JR. One of the West Suffield elite, Sam figures that getting a diploma involved sufficient travel to carry him three and a half times around the world. After a close shave with the Grim Reaper this Spring, Sam returned to finish up with no mean record. I-Ie leaves with the reputation for being a good sport and a gentleman. Basketball Squad I, IV: Baseball Squad I, III, IV: Student Council IV. HAROLD DELMORE COLE Sleek, swift, a man to be reckoned with on the cinder track as well as on the ball-room floor, his nick-name, Flash , carries a double meaning. Arrayed in all his sartorial splendor, he has caused many a feminine heart to flutter. There was one time, however, when first base was never reached. 3rd Football Il: 2nd Football III, IV: Varsity Wrestling Ill, IV: Varsity Track II, III, IV: Art Club II: Glee Club III, IV. FREDERICK D. SLOAN Famed as one of the pink-eye champions, Fred's athletic prowess makes him a champion of another stamp. He has been a great asset on the varsity football, swimming, and baseball teams. Lately we have seen evidence of an embryonic but growing interest in horses. Varsity Football IV: Swimming IV: Varsity Baseball IV: Science Club. Vice-Presi- dent IV. VALERY EDWIN SUNDT I Some win fame in school as athletes, others as scholars. still others as leaders. Few indeedaare those whose place in the annals of Suffield is secured by all three. I'IaIf-miler, consistent honor student, musician, journalist extraordinaire: withal, an unassuming air, an unqualified spirit of give-and-take, boundless energy. Bud leaves behind a record that will not soon be duplicated. Believer in living a well-rounded existence, he has not neglected romance, has welded this final link in the chain of the all-round man by establishing an all-time high for constancy. 3rd Football I, II, Ill, IV.

BENNETT GORDON ULIN Ben may be smooth but he's no cookie as his record on the football and tennis court will bear witness. Without doubt, the school's most sophisticated gentle- man, he sets the high water mark at Suttield much as Paris sets the styles tor New York. Varsity Football III, IV: Varsity Track Ill, IV: Varsity Tennis III, IV: French Club III. IV. JOHN LESLIE FRANCIS Jack be nimble, Jack be quick . . . As a candy salesman he's all ot that: as a manager ot teams, he's the tops. With an eye to the future, he plans to learn what makes the wheels go round in diesel engines. Assistant Manager Football III: Manager Varsity Football IV: Manager Swimming III: Manager Wrestling IV: Varsity Golf III, IV: Track Squad III, IV: Torch Club III. IV. AUSTIN PROUT Limitations ot space prevent an even sketchy review ot his career or an ade- quate tribute to his worth as an athlete, a student otlicer, a head waiter. His honesty, his solid reliability have made him a universally recognized leader. Varsity Football I, Il, Captain Ill, IV: Intermediate Basketball IV: Student Council III, IV. EDWARD C. CHURCHILL Ed is certainly not one of the Hinarticulate masses . When there's something to be said and sometimes when there's not. he says it, and says it so it can be heard. An expert dunner , he won the position ot class treasurer hands down, and the privilege ot wrangling dues out ot his classmates: good training tor his prospective business career, no doubt. Varsity Football IV: Intermediate Basketball IV: Varsity Tennis IV: Torch Club III, Secretary IV: Student Body Vice-President IV: Class Treasurer IV. CARLTON E. MILLER It's really too bad we can't take him as seriously as he takes himself. or maybe it's a good thing. He has talked munitions, aeronautics, and skiing to those who would listen and to many who would have rather not. Really talented, he is responsible tor no small traction ot the photography in this volume. Varsity Swimming III, IV: Science Club IV: Kaleidoscope IV.
