Pdgf 32 T H E CORRELATOR V01-IX. On Th DOTOTHY NI, BECKER is one of our enterprising young ladies. She is one of the few girls who can keep a high standard in her studies and yet have a good time whenever one is to be had. just to prove it to you, after having passed everything with flying colors, she calmly walked off to Europe three weeks before graduation. Dot said her highest ambition was to get an A with Mr. Crowe in English IV. She also said that she must have been asleep when she spent her first two years at Wendell Phillips, and that she never knew what a good time was until she came to U. High. You may find her next year at Smith. Junior year--Iunior Girls' Society.

High that Li'l A'thu' decided to browse around for a while. Ever since then the faculty has kept such a good grip on him that he couldn't get away. It is rumored that Art is something of a fusser, .but of course we couldn't possibly think such a thing of him. But you just ought to see him drink milk out of a bottle. Art has been prominent in ath- letics at U. High. He has decided to take an advanced course in fussing at Madison, and may do a little athletics there, too. -Iunior year-Track Team.

Yes, we know you'd like to get at him but we must protect him. l'Bolt or Bottle, sometimes known as CHARLES LAWRENCE BOLTE, has been rather busy during his last year here, having gone through school in three and a half years. He is one of the two members of this year,s class who made both Tripleee and Phi Beta Sigma. Lor has supported the Daily for the past two years and during his senior year figured in class athletics. Although study was always a bugbear to Bottle yes-no?, nevertheless he intends to go first to Armour and later to Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

There we hope he will show up as well as he has here. He made a modest beginning among us and made his mark as a class baseballer. In his first two years he entered football, baseball and track for his class. In his senior year he began by defendiing the school from Hank attacks in the fall. He liked the applause of the multitude, and so went on helping the school out in both track and baseball. So much for our friend, Boof, as an athlete.

1912 THE CORRELA T o R , P11931 If a vote were to be taken as to who is the most prominent man in the senior class a very large number of votes would be cast in favor of JOHN GEORGE AGAR, known to the entire school as Hjackf' Jack set a new record for the 50 in the Cook County at 5 2-5. As captain of the track team and a football star Jack has done some tall work for U. High, and his name will be long remembered. If he only wouldn't turn around in English class. jack spent his first year at Oak Park, but we're mighty glad he didnlt stay there, for we simply couldn'1: have gotten along without him. He is going to help his father run the Stockyards next year, although we know lots of col- leges that would be glad to get him.

Outside of being our star senior half-back, Bal has been quite prominent in literary lines, having been secretary of three Debating Clubs. We may also add that he helped the seniors to win the interclass football championship last fall. He was a pretty speedy boy when he once got started.

You may not know her, as she is not especially noisy, but nevertheless she has taken an interest in the affairs around school, in particular the Friday afternoon dances. Although she has held no ofhces in this school, having been here only one year, we know that she was an important person in the school which she last attended. This is all the definite knowledge we could obtain concerning Katherine. The University of Chicago will claim her next year, and then TCF?

II2 THE CORRELATOR Patna Toot! Toot! Enter one of the motor-bike brigade. XNENDELL KING BRIDGMAN has been cutting the breeze and smearing us with clust for the past four years. He has been so interested in the art of navigating on a shooter-bikel' that he has for- gotten to make himself prominent in the school. We be- lieve that he learns his lessons at the rate of sixty miles an hour. People say that W. K. has no occupation for the rest of his life, and we are inclined to believe that he will spend it upon two wheels, and then watch out for the gyroscopic hearse. Still,before that we expect to hear of him in other lines than that of putting the bicycle on the scrap-heap. looks rather sedate and dignified, doesn't he? But he isn't. E1.1.xoTT LTALCOLM BRILL has been one of the busiest fellows in school during his whole four years, and deserves a lot more credit for what he has done than he has received. He has done his Work on the Daily and CoRRELA'roR and class teams, and in his senior year he managed the football team through a successful season. Eli helped hold the line when the senior team won the football championship, and has worked two years on the track squad. He will represent U. High at Dartmouth next fall.

YVe may as well believe it, since he has certainly done nothing since to disprove it. He has heroically pursued his course chasing the two lVI's, in spite of the Black Hand. Buz began his athletic training in his freshman year, and has been a staunch supporter of all forms of athletic sports since then. W'hen he has not been on the field he has been in the side- lines rooting his best and helping the team to win. Freshman year-Class Baseball and Track. Sophomore year-Class Baseball and Track.

Lo1uN JOSEPH CAI-IN resides somewhere in a place called Glencoe. He is so in love with that spot that he refuses to leaveit long enough to go to col- lege. We can guess only one reaon for this. Lorin ran the Thursday Daily last fall, and they almost had to take him out. Now we know why he began in the Sophomore Debating Club and then 'fdid time for two years in the Clay Club. The histories say that he played freshman football. At any rate we know that he piloted the senior team to a complete victory. Freshman year-Class Football. Sophomore year-Sopho- more Debating Club.
