PANDORA Staxi.ky Si'kxckk Bkxxkt, A.B. Quitman, Ga. Kappa Alpha; Phi Kappa; Glee Club; Gridiron Club; Nice-President Senior Class. Singing and dancing alone will not advance one in the world. “Spink” is one of those who jumped from a Sophomore to a Senior, and so we must excuse any deficiency. He doesn’t wear a derby or use a cane, but with ladies he is one “bearcat.” From the very start “Spink” has been one of the college “contingent.” He has made an ardent success as a “pompadour” trainer, and sports it to the full extent. His dew-drop eyes almost elected him to the Sorority, but considering the deep and sonorous voice, he was “balled” on the last ballot. On the whole, “Spink” passes inspection with about the same mark lie gets in Greek. Congratulations, Quitman. J. M. Bkxi.ky, B.S.Ag. Moreland, Ga. Dcmosthenian; Agricultural Club; Lieutenant; Agricultural Quarterly Stall'; Campus Club. “ Adam was a gardener. ” “Spot” made himself famous by defeating “ Zeta Chi” Camp in a ten-round bout two years ago in front of Candler Hall. The only light used was one suspended from a lirst-lloor window. The ring was not roped oil' but was drawn with a stick. The bout came at high midnight. The spectators were garlied in all sorts of apparel. Some wore bath robes, some were half dressed and some otherwise. It was here also that “Spot” proved that he would stand for right and justice. He has been a staunch G. O. I , ever since he entered school and he delighted in seeing them go over the top always to victory. We are expecting to see Bexley teach the folks back home up-to-date methods of farming. y

C'uktis Pktkk Bakkk, A.B. Hartwell, Gn. Demosthenian; Freshman Debater; Junior Orator. ” Here's to the pilot who has weathered the storm.” We don’t know what R. F. D. Baker lives on, but any way he lives up in the hills of Hart County—yes, so far up in the hills that the owls are afraid of the chiekens. However, lie is not so far back ill the sticks that his breath smells like con I wood. Baker looked in the Q Itoom one day and thought that they were playing marbles on the tables and punching them with a stick. He was a shark in his home settlement at the marble game, where they play with hickory nuts. So he thought that he could surely play a great game on the smooth, level table. Baker’s mind is inclined towards law and we are sure that he will make a lawyer that will do credit to the county precinct in which he lives. Jbssf. Jamf.s Bkxkoicd, B.S.Ag. Demosthenian; Agricultural Club; Campus Club; Cotton School Debater; Alpha Zeta; Agricultural Quarterly Stall'. In friendship early was taught to believe.” “J. J.” is another man who is more familiar with the word “whoa” than “halt,” when you mean stop. There never was a “Georgia” man who enjoyed playing “Glory” more on his horn than Benford. He has blown “Glory” at nearly all of the Georgia games during the last four years, and enjoys it more every day. It is said that he is the greatest originator of col lege •slang in school and it is he who first thought about “Hold them in the road.” “J. J.” is a good, clever scout.

i Alfred Blalock, A.B. .loncslxtro, Ga. Sigma Chi; Demosthenian; Member of Junior Cabinet; Y. M. C. A. Cabinet; Impromptu Debater, MS; Gridiron Club; Associate Editor of Pandora. “ In ajj able and coart conn { cat Inna a, IVhat marc coaid mortal wish?’' We have our runts, sharks, hot air artists and bone heads in our class, but Alfred is the baby of the class. He is the youngest Senior in college. Alfred is somewhat of a tennis shark, and with a few more years of practice and experience, he may be a second Wilding. He intends to enter the medical profession and leaves for Johns Hopkins’ next year. Up there he will undergo another grind which will lit him either to kill or cure. Luck to you Alfred, and may it be the latter that you are fitted for. James Richard Bowden , A.B. Thomson, Ga. I’hi Delta Theta; Phi Kappa; Impromptu Debater. M7; Junior Cabinet; Sophomore Declamation; Sophomore Debate; President Junior Class; Associate Editor Pandora. “None bat himself can be his parallel Here is one of the few good things which has blown in from the home of ‘The Jeffersonian,” the company consisting of Bowden, West and Mobley. The subject of discussion has never been seen with his tie awry or hair rumpled. That eternal smile is also one of his distinguishing characteristics. “Dick’s” numerous worries don’t bother him any, and he turns them aside with a laugh. He was President of our class during its Junior year, and he made an unusually efficient one, presiding at all the meetings called during his reign. When Richard entered Georgia, he liegan with a rush in his studies, and it was thought for about three days that he was going to beat “Shark” West out of first honor. Mr. Bowden’s favorite occupation is driving his “Bix Six” Buick up and down Hearing Street, using the knowledge which he gained in the quartermaster’s course in surveying the “ Parks.” “Dick” had a successful college career and we hope that his good work will be continued throughout life. ,
