Perhaps the friction of his mind on that of his poor room-mate has kindled the pure fire of his intellectual genius. At any rate it shines with such brilliancy that it frequently blinds Nlr. Sheppard and the Geometry class. Next we have Carol Shaffer, so called because his room emits more musical sounds than a hand-organ. On enter- ing, if you're lucky, you' may be able to make your way through the tons of music that cover the floor. Sit down, and you sit on a mandolin or put your foot through a guitar-case. Probably about this time a music-box, or phonograph, or something starts up. Then there is usually a banjo-mandolin-glee club concert going on. Shaffer has stood it for two terms and still lives. He surely deserves to be ranked among the immortals. Speaking of music, here is our sweet songster, Jay-bird Spencer, me boy. His greatest joy, next to running a ten- .mile race, is to throw back his head and warble: Down in the cornfield Hear that mournful sound, Jolly boating wea-a-ther, Three cheers for old Nassau. Here we have Beltram X. Y. Z. Sauntry, noted for his wonderful smile, gorgeous scarf-pins and curious hats. Ah, yes, I almost forgot, he sings. Whether he hypnotized or successfully assaulted Nlr. Haynes is not known, but at any rate he succeeded in breaking into the glee club, so hurrah for him ! QEnter Eben Orlando McNair, Jr., who chuckles incessantly in alternate bass and falsetto tones with startling effectj. This is another of the large tribe of Nlacks that inhabit the flat. Yes, he is a sad case. Brooding over a disappoint- ment in love has made him utterly foolish. Just listen to that laugh! Too bad, isn't it? So young, too. Only twenty-seven. Generally his face is preternaturally grave, but occasionally he breaks forth, as at present. Next ! CEnter 'arry Woidner, Esq., DIAL in his hand, Hinglish wescut, French shoes, Pottstown walkj. He draws up three shades in line and says: f'Open ranks! March! No, not that way. This is the way they do it in Macbeth. Acts it for them. They are visibly affected. Now again. Ah, excellent! Renshaw, what's the matter with your shoes, etc. He keeps this up until the shades go stark mad and rush out. Woidner mutters: Now, what do you suppose was the matter? l'm sure it was that way in the Colonel's drill regulations. Exit. Last, but not least, Whacker Nlunyon Wallace steps proudly into the arena. Pro di immortales! Was there ever such a man? Of mighty strength-yea, a second Shevlin. Like that hero of bygone days, he has a magnificent physical development, yes, and a brazen voice with leather lungs. If in the Lawrenceville game last fall they had given Andya chance to explain the rules he would have talked Lawrenceville into ten touchdowns at least. . S 1 7
