NELSON MARQUIS LYNDE, JR Senatorial, Colorado Trinidad, Colorado GEORGE FRANCIS McANENY Fourleenth District, New York Fanwood, New Jersey o. ' f course you are a Pointer reader, and you admire the cartoons and drawings that make up so important a part of that magazine. Here is the man who has contributed largely to the make-up of the Pointer as a successful publication. " Nellie " Lyndc has a natural talent for drawing, and he has improved his natural aptitude by training so that he has a unique and distinctive style, that proclaims him as thor- oughly as Bertillon fingerprints. Nor is he un- generous with his talents, but shares the results of his work with the many who come to admire and to praise. Diminutive in size but large of heart, Nellie will always proclaim himself by a smile so in- fectious and congenial that those around un- consciously fall into the same blithesome spirit. Sergeant (1), Pointer (4, 3, 2, 1), Art Editor (1), Ring and Seal Committee (3, 2, 1), Rijie Sharp- shooter. Pistol Marksman. 1 T was four long years ago at the tender age of seventeen that young " Mac " entered our jovial throng. His outstanding characteristic has been his ever-ready cheerfulness and willing- ness to forget and forgive what is past. He has always been an ardent backer of all Army sports and it is in this field that his greatest interest lies. George has been on an Army team all four years at the Academy; it is spirit like his that keeps sports at West Point up to a high standard. He has had the unique distinction of making out poop sheets in Frog and Spic for the hiviest Engineers. At the same time he main- tains a voluminous correspondence that prom- ises to give him a distmction as great as that of Samuel Pepys. Soccer (4, 3, 2, 1), Lacrosse (3). :lt
