Here’s a guy that changed from engineering to “Heck and ever since he has been trying to defend the name of ‘‘Us Agicultural Gentlemen.” Sam is a poet, but you would never guess it from his looks; he’s fond of such an expression as this: “If it is two hundred miles from Caribou to Orono how far is it to Skowhegan? Of course no one would accuse him of having more than one girl. It sure would be an awful smash though, if they all came together. His favorite pastime is messing somebody’s hair and possibly editing The Prism. He is a firm believer in the spoken word (alias the Maine Masque) and is “Windy” Daggett's chief adviser on French plays. His ability in Mr. Maine’s Army will probabh be testified to after the war by the many Boches who may have been unfortunate enough to run into some of the “Hun exterminators that Sam has trained Raymond John Cook, “Ray,” (-) X Worcester, Mass.

Raymond John Pavalowa Cook, the dancing nymph of the I beta Chi house, and the Bangor house. As yet he has not determined his permanent address. He can be found, however, every Sunday PM. in his fraternity house and any night in the week he is in some parlor in Bangor. Raymond is not only proficient with his feet but has shown rare ability as Editor of the Campus. This Campus job almost drove cookie to the wall and when on the mat “Janie” would not believe his story. In spite of the luring lights of the Queen city, he manages to pass his courses.

Ralph Lawrence Brown, '‘Brownie,” l PA Cedar Grove Bridge Academy Biology Brownie is a bug chaser and an ex-teacher, so “rotten” in bis studies, it's a wonder Jimmy Stevens lets him stay in his college. We have nothing against this insignificant, unsophis- ticated youth except that a shadow hangs over his life—his last year’s term bill. Curtice Lowe Caswell. “Cassy,” AT A Portland Bridgton Academy Chemical Engineering Corj oral (2); Lieutenant 3); Alpha Chi Sigma; Scab- bard and Blade. Kings arc bis favorite suit, especially with the ladies. He is an adopted son of Orono. It is rumored about the campus that the hardest work Cassy does during the sum- mer is to play tennis with Prof. Mitchell, after which they indulge in a nap in the chemical hoods with the ventilating fans furnishing the sea breezes. Before Cassy got in strong with the Royal Family W ebster held many attractions for him. Robert Dunning Ciiellis. “Bob,” AX Portland Westbrook Seminary Civil Engineering Campus Board (1). (2). (3): Associate Editor Campus (3); Mandolin Club (3); Secretary Civil Engineering Soci- ety (3); Secretary Campus Board (3); Prism Board (3); M. C. A. Cabinet. We almost expected to sec Bob elected president of the Co-ed Haters Club” and follow in the footsteps of many a wise man. But in the first place his feet are too big. secondly we fear, he has a dear in Deering. All of which proves that the stronger they are the harder they fall. We don’t dare say any more here, but come around sometime and we will whisper the incriminating facts to you. Tsiu Chi Ciiow. “Big Chow” Chekiang, China Tsing Hua. Peking Chemical Engineering T. C. Chow, who recently startled the world and made an important contribution to science by discovering the struct- ural formula for oat-meal in colloidal suspension, gives prom- ise of becoming a famous chemical engineer. Despite his wonderful ability as a chemist, he stated in an interview that he would carry on no reactions in China. -7

Robert Gardner Cokxfortii, “Corny, Seymour. Conn. Seymour High School Mechanical Engineer Musical Club (i). (2) ; Sergeant (2) : M. C. A. Cabinet • Here is a youngster, who has covered his tracks very well, but owing to his lad -killing tactics received a Stillwater Hath in 1915. He claims to be a mechanical engineer but we fear that women have led him astray, for he seems to be rather fond of taking library courses. 1r Caswf.ll Craig, “Cassie” Millinockct Millinocket High School Ulcdricnl Enyinccriny Junior Nominating Committee (3). Here he is. the irresistible Freshman trainer, the irresponsible Junior who could possibly solve some of those mysteries about placing Freshman banners in the chapel. Cas- sie does not care for the co-eds but he says that he has no special animosity for them, moreover a rumor has it that he has a heart affliction caused by a little girl in Providence. He thinks that he will change to Brown. Hugo Silas Cross, “Taxie,” ! r A Guilford Foxcroft Academy Economics Class Basketball (1). (2), (3); Class Baseball (1). (2): Class Football (2) : Glee Club. “Taxie.” the big little Democrat from Guilford. The cream of the Glee Club. He runs the store with three brass balls over the door. He loans candy to supplicating mendi- cants. His motto is. In God we trust.—all others pay cash. He has been recommended to the trustees as an auxiliary heat- ing plant to the campus. His usefulness as a dispenser of hot air should exempt him from the draft. Spherical by shape, square as they make ’em??????, and always round when not wanted. But alas—his “Rep” at Balentiue has been ripped. He almost went to the 1920 banquet. Don't you believe ’em. officer, they’re trying to kidnap me and they are trying to kid you.” Gee. I am a brave guy when I have a cop on each side of me. Frances Crowley, “Frances’’ Bangor Bangor High School Arts This dark-eyed maiden from Date Street.” Bangor, for three years has given the citizens of Mr. Maine’s College an impression of extreme dignity. Iler week-end address is t lark’s Bungalow. Hampden. 29
