A. degree. He has spent this year outside of college. All he had to do to get his M. A. this 3 ' ear was to come back commencement and hold out his hand. His ability as a student and an all - ' round college man is shown in the way he has demanded his two degrees in four years. His pro- gress has been rapid and all reports show him to be a fellow of no mean ability. While in college Jack took a leading part in athletics and was very popular with the student body. His place as infielder in baseball could have been tilled l y no other. We icel sure that the same spirit which dominated his activities on the atblilir licld and u the classrnnm will lead him to victMn iii his dioseit ocMu n. what- ever it may be.

Seldum does a t;de in the affairs of men mil up mto view a man like Wilkes Blevins. As his name among the students indicates, he is a native of the State of Wilkes, and as a loyal son, he is striving ever to make Wilkes as proud of him as he is of Wilkes. He is a ministerial student and withal a man. No man enjoys a joke more than Blevins and his laugh is as well known as his swinging gait. Whether plunging through a football line or leading the ilkes fraternity he is a figure of prominence. We feel (|uite safe m assuring him that there is a future before him.

In 1908 Chief came to us from the wilds .( Warren. This county did well to produce such a lad for he has always been known to be a shark in his books. He is swarthy, black haired and one of the neatest little packages we have in our midst, . s a speaker he has won fame by his drv wit and line common sense. Along with his college work he has gotten off a number of hours of campus. and as a member of the runt quartet he has become dis- tinguished. He has served his sentence of four years uitli pre ■lit, and now holds out his hand for a degree. The pr. per conception of Chief is that he is of rather business-like turn of mind, and we have an idea that he will m.-ike rapid strides toward the i;. al of financial fame. -Associate Editor of Howi.r.K ' 11 ■ T Clas.s.

RODERICK M KCIE B. S., Phi. Chatham County, North Carolina. After death the doctor takes the fee. Age 26; height 6 feet 3 inches; weight 185. This is one of those big phlegmatic, peaceful sort of fellows in whom you instinctively trust and for whose physi()ue it is well to preserve a wholesome respect. Being built on large generous lines it re- quires some considerable outlay of energ - for him to get in motion and Buie abhors any useless expendi- ture of either energy or language. However, if a situation arises requiring immediate and effective action he has a habit of delivering the goods on time. 35 is e ' -idenced by his record on the varsitj- basket-ball team. On the gridiron he hat uphdd the honor of his class on his broad shoulders as if to the manner born. With a dissecting knife and a pair of forceps and a defunct citizen he delights to prove himself a skilled artisan. His business in college has been to study medicine and he has attended strictly to his business. That he has the confidence of his fellow students is shown by his election to the Senate Committee. He will continue his studies in a northern university. Class Baseball, ' 10-11; Class Basket-ball. ' 10-11-12; ' arsity Basket-ball. 11; Captain Junior Basket-ball, 11 ; Senate Committee.
