1912 THE CORRELATOR Fwy .ARMSTRONG CRAWFORD is not a relative of the famous Senator IVII William H. Crawford of South Carolina, but still he hails from Dixieland. One who has seen Crawfish play basketball and shoot baskets does not need any information as to his athletic ability. He has only been with us one year, but he says this is the best place he ever struck. He is bound for the U. of C. Senior year-Class Basketball, Track Squad. LDRED ELIZABETH CULVER doesn't look like a cow-girl although she says that she is. She hails from Sheridan, Wyoming, and you would fully believe her story if you could only see lIer ride horseback, and play basketball. Nlildred is good for anything in the domestic science line, especially cooking, for she so much enjoys washing dishes afterwards. Nliggy will reassure you on this point. VVe don't know what Mildred is going to do next year, but we have a suspicion that she will break colts, with a little juggling of dishes between times. junior year-Class Basketball, Girls' Basketball Team, Glee Club.

High's one loyal SUi:l-YE1gEtEC-DOIQOTHX' EMILY DAVIS. But this is not all, for Dorothy is our human joker. At any time you can count on a hearty laugh from Dotto's jokes, to say nothing of her two celebrated selec- tions on the accordion, at which she is very proficient. She is our crack 'fsiss-boom-bah cheer leader, and usually man- ages to break everything handy. It is obvious that Dorothy has taken an active part in all school activities during her two years with us, and we could not have done without her. VVe all wish her the best of luck at the U. of C. and at Wellesley if she goes there. junior year-Treasurer junior Girls, So- cietyg Dramatics Senior year-Vice-President Girls' Clubg Captain Class Basketball, Chairman Class Day Committeeg Commencement Committee, Kanyaratna. e of the fellows we simply couldn't have gotten along without is CARL WRIGHT DEFEBAUGH. Daffy is a kind-hearted. fun-loving kid and a renowned fusser-nit. Carl is one of the prominent members of the nine, a position to which he climbed by hard and steady work. This year he is president of the Y. M. C. A. class, and he has done much to bring this organization through a successful year. Daf will attend Yale next year, and we give him our hearty good wishes.

Pagfg4 THE CORRELATOR VOLIX- Ladies and gentlemen, this is STUART MAITLAND CANBY, a tennis shark of note, who held the captaincy of the racket team for two years. He is our baby-doll, one awful fusser, and some shark in college algebra. Stew', has been a director of the Boys' Club every year since he arrived from the Elementary School across the lot. His extreme tender age, 16, accounts for the fact that he sometimes wanders off from the straight and narrow way, but since the U. of C. claims his goat next- year and Yale sometime later we hope he will reform.

Oh we'll hang Jeff Davis to a sour apple tree. Thus sang the boys in blue during the war. It is exceedingly fortunate that those boys did not try to hang Jeff Calias CARROLL WVRIGI-ITD CLARK, for they would have ere long been so much meat, as anyone will realize who has seen Jeff tossing would-be basket- ballers in all directions or shooting baskets off his ,left hind Wishbone. Jeff long ago showed his worth in basketball, and if he ever gets out of U. High he will probably be the star of the Illinois team. However, since he has been trying for some years already, it is feared that this longed-for event will not take place for some time to come. Freshman year-Foot- ball Teamg Basketball Team.

HUGH Lxvmcsa-oN Cote is the Billiken of the class, but he certainly can make a loud noise with both his tenor voice and his beloved flute. Many of you remember him in As You Like It last year. This year he is one of our star members of the Glee Club, and he tootles his flute in the orchestra, an organization which he has supported ever since he entered U. High, four long years ago. He will be another represen- tative to Ithaca from U. High next fall. We hope he does as well there as he did in solid geometry. Freshman year- Orchestra. Sophomore year-Orchestra.

If you ever see an electric coming down the street with at least sixteen people hanging on the outside, you may be sure that the driver is MARGARET Cote. Marg is also noted for her camera, and if you should ever get hold of her kodak book you would find out lots of things you didn't know before. l'Packy is another of our distinguished members who hops down to Florida or Africa whenever she feels like it. Lucky sinner! Peggy', intends to go to the U. of C. next year, but it is our private opinion that she will end up at the University of Borneo. Sophomore year-Girls' Club Refreshment Com- mittee.

He was a member of that freshman team which took the interclass championship, has been a class representa- tive in Students' Council for all four years, and for the past two yea-rs has been an important member of our football team. For his first three years he was a Boys' Club director, 'and in his fourth year was president. According to his own statement he is the biggest man in Tripleeef' Just look at this record.

Here comes PAUL FDWARD DONKER, future Annapolis middie, sail- ing wing and wing. f'Donk has proved himself to be a :'bear athlete during his stay at U. High, and will doubtless show them at Annapolis how we do things in Chicago. He is a popular fellow too, being Hadvertised by his friends. VVe shall expect to see Donk captain of the basketball team at Annapolis if he keeps on at his present pace. Here's honing that he gets there.

R., found out what a perfectly line place U. High is, and so, after wasting two years of her high school life, joined forces with us in her junior year. The school which she attempted to like first and where she spent her first two years, was St. lVIary's Acad- emy at Knoxville, Ill. Stella has often been seen coming out of 5831 Monroe Avenue, an edifice familiar to all of us, but, as she talks very little, we do not know whether she lives there or not. Even though she has been here only a short while, Stella has taken an active part in school life, and we wish her good luck at the U. of C. next year. Junior year- Clay Club: Junior Girls' Society. Senior year-Glee Club. THOMAS RAYMOND DUNN, a charter member of the Five Year Club, came over from the Emerald Isle in early youth, and has since attended this stately institution of learning. His customary job as bone-grabberu in the Boys' Club will be hard to Fill when T. R. departs for the U. of C. Dunn is a rather impressing bit of humanity. Indeed, seeing him stalk down the hall with a few volumes under his arm, one might take him for a member of the faculty. Freshman year-Secretary Freshman Debating Clubg Boys' Club.
