Before this first year was over he was made an editor of the Weekly. The fact that Pete was not an athlete did not stop him from becoming popular with his fellow classmen. I f Pete keeps on playing that har- monious saxophone he will probably be tak- ing Paul Whiteman’s place in the next few years. Pete’s joyful moments along with his serious ones have won for him a rank of good standing in his class. May Yale be as glad to have him as we were.

He is, by nature, very quiet and reserved, hut to those of us who know him better, and especially his fellow table-mates, his name will always bring hack a certain reminiscence of a good bit of hid- den deviltry which Pony ” possessed. In his senior year he stood among the highest in his class scholastically, and through his conscientious work, his name was almost in- variably on the Honor Roll. Moreover, he has shown up well on both the football and basketball squads, as well as followed up his brother’s record as an excellent weight man in track.

To look at his one hundred and forty pounds of brawn, one would hardly think that George could be a football player, but during the last football season his conscientious work was admired by everyone, and in the final and most trying game of the year, he played excellently at right end. George’s abilities are many, and we feel sure his suc- cess will be as great at college as it has been here. He goes to Williams ■
