Dean Nicholas Lekas Lek” Pennsylvania—Entered 1947—Varsity Soccer 3; Varsity Hockey 3, 4; J. V. Baseball 3; Glee Club 3, 4; Photography Club 3; Math Club 4. The Lek has, over the years, become a form institution. Who can forget those model planes zooming over the campus, or Deanie’s famous laugh easily audible over the tumult at lunch ? None of us. And by the same token, none of us will forget that Dean is a good man, and we wish him luck. Robert Bruce Moody Moose Yale—Entered 1949—Varsity Football 4; Varsity Swimming 3, 4; J. V. Football 3; Tennis 3, 4; Student Council 4; Yearbook 4; Paper 4 (Associate News Editor); Dance Committee 3, 4 (Co-Chairman 4); International Relations 3; Debating Club 3, 4; Drama Club 4. Bruce, like all Gaul, is divided into three parts; one part is the serious scholar, doggedly pouring over his books. A second part is the mental giant, dealing with philosophy. The third is the whacky, zany guy, who, with his antics, has made life a bit more enjoyable. 23

Hey, Bill, how do you do this Chem?”, or Kane got below a ninety? It must have teen tough! are familiar quotes among the seniors at T-P.

Richard James Norton Dick” Brown-—Entered 1950—Varsity Hockey 4 (Captain); Varsity Baseball 4. Hailing from the heart of New England, Dick came to T-P after Christmas vacation, and it wasn't long before all eyes were on this little guy. A whiz on skates, Dick really sparked the hockey team, playing excellently on both offense and defense. In addition, Dick has made many friends in his short time here at school. Robert Bruce Owens, III Jesse” Oberlin—Entered 1948—Varsity Soccer 3; Varsity Swimming 3, 4; Varsity Tennis 3, 4; J. V. Football 4; International Relations Club 4; Debating Club 3, 4; Press Club 3; Spanish Club 4. We will long remember the sourrd of Jesse's pianoforte. This lad was artistically inclined, and his paintings, piano, sketches, dancing, and vitalis all took our breath away. And Jesse's performances on the tennis courts as well as in the pool were something to behold. We feel that sometime Jesse will be giving a lot of up-and-coming pianists a run for their money. 24
