rx if 2, IIDXVARID SVIZN BENSON l9i7-'-iv YALE Tedis two-year engagement at The Gunnery was success- ful in every phase of the word. His genial personality and genuine affability won for him the respect and friendship of his classmates. Teds qualities of leadership, character and integrity made him one of the more popular members of the '-19 class. Boasting of Swedish extraction, Blonde Sven never failed to contribute to a bull session by extolling the many merits of his lineage or by glorifying the little town of Berlin. Conn.. his residence. His rustic environ- ment and mode of life. though not purely agrarian, offset some of the more sophisticated elements of the class, pro- viding a most welcome balance. Ted was proficient scholas- tically and extra-curricularly as well. Last year. Elbows was assistant manager of the Varsity Football Squad. As a member of the bI.Y. basketball team for two years, his hoop- ing was consistent if not always accurate. The zeal and enthusiasm which Ted expressed on the court revealed the true athletic sportsmanship which he possessed. This fall he was awarded a major Ci for his managerial work on the Varsity Football Team. He was also a member of the Edi- torial Board of The Gunnery News. CHARLES BANKS BliI.T, MIR, 19-iff-149 WILLIAMS C, B. Belt. the last of Ciunnerys back-woods boys, has graduated. During his stay at the Gunnery. Charlie fished for trout in the Shepaug, slept out under the stars, built shacks in the woods of Wfashington, and has been one of the main pillars of the outdoor club for the past few years. In addition to the aforementioned spring and fall activities, C Bfi skied and managed the Varsity Hockey Teams in the years of '18 and '-i9. This year he was associate editor of the Ciunnerys literary publication, the Stray Shot. An excellent and an interested student C. B. was a frequent member of the honor roll throughout his sojourn at the Gunnery. Charlies plans lie in Williziins College where he will study to fulfill his ambitions of becoming a mining engineer, W'e feel confident that Charlie's good work will continue throughout college and that he will receive the rewards of honest labor, Certainly no boy in the school, through his own efforts, has more richly deserved success. 4.
