RALPH CLONTS ALEXANDER Cleveland, Ohio Alex Aleck Clonts Crew Squad (4, 3, 2, 1); 1918 Plebe Crew Manager Crew (1); Masqueraders (2, 1) Buzzard; Musical Clubs (1) Emm T HE correct Old Navy answer to the oft-repeated Sunday night question: What ' s the good word? would seem at first glance to describe Aleck ' s temperament, but this is only the impression he tries to create, for Clonts, you know, is an actor. Under his exterior mantle Alex has a cheery disposition, is popular, willing to take a chance, has been classed as an insurgent, and has an affinity for a 2.50 rather than a little bit of heaven on his collar. In regard to acting, why it has become second nature in his daily life — he tries to appear as though he were at odds with the world. His lordly manner, sea-going roll, abruptness, and downcast countenance are merely a curtain which tends to hide his true disposition from inquiring eyes. He is a man of fads and fancies. Youngster year he was strong for the West Coast and comments on the joys and trea sures it held were of daily occurrence. Second class year the fad led to being a sportsman, when interest in crew, etc., ran to high limits. During first class year, Alex became a politician and in this line, as in all others he has tackled, he achieved notable results. In spite of Aleck ' s wonderful distinctive dance, he is always among those present when the roll is called at our social functions. Clonts has been an active worker on the crew and in the Mas- queraders. He also has a propensity for appearing in Smoke Hall at the after end of some advanced model cigar. This taste for the weed may have been created en route to the Army- Navy game youngster year, when he tackled a B. O. rope in the Baltimore tunnel. No, no, that ' s not it, listen here. i 1 26

HENRY ARTHUR HUTCHINS, Jr Portsmouth, Virginia Hutch Hooch Handsome Harry President Y. M. C. A.; ' Varsity Football Squad (j, 2) Class Basketball (4, 3); Numerals (Captain) (4) ' Varsity Crew Squad (3, 2); Three Stripes LITTLE did we dream, when we read in the Evening Capitol of the advent of Henry Arthur Hutchins, Jr., savoir extraordinary, naval officer par excellence, etc., that the Hutch we knew was the man. Such introductions around here are always harder to live down than to live up to, and as it was well-nigh impossible to live up to, you can see what a hardship he started under. f Seriously speaking, we don ' t know a great deal about Hutchins. He started out to make good, quickly got on his course, and so far has sailed it steadily. He believes in the regs and abides by them, simply because they are regs. We have it on the highest authority, however, that not a few academic restrictions went by the board, when the Little Girl Back Home paid a short visit to Crabtown. We don ' t know how true it is, and perhaps shouldn ' t have mentioned it — three stripers can ' t afford to have their ancient delinquencies brought back to them. Hutch isn ' t in the strictest sense a savoir, but he ' s right up there with the boys when the monthly marks go up. He has a world of good common sense, which, coupled with hard work, and an inherent habit of standing from under, got him his three stripes first class year. He rated them all right but he surely had a job on his hands with the non-reg Third. It ' s a two-man job to keep Alec — his roommate — on the straight and narrow. In the fussing line he has passed in his checks, since young- ster year, but every once in a while still throws a wicked foot around the gym floor. As for athletics, he ' s worked pretty hard and done well — hust- lers, crew squad, and class basketball. His work here, as every where, has been steady and unselfish. Hutch is a mighty good man, but has kept within his shell pretty consistently, Still water runs deep. 2 7
