PELHAM LEANDER FEEDER Elloree, S. C. Company, villainous coiiipany, hath been the ruin of me. Preston Societ} ' ; Class Football, ' 11- ' 12. The above example of what Mother Nature can do was discovered, trapped and broken to harness in Elloree, and sent to college to learn the use of combs, brushes, neckties, etc. But Victim was quick to catch on, and now, when not lying on the bed smoking a stogie, he is usually found collecting razors for his morning shave. Chaucer has the unmis- takable look of having once had a bright idea and having never recovered from it. His ambition is to be a great doctor, but we predict that he will follow the inclination of his nose, which will doubtless lead him else- where. HENRY NIMROD FOLK Bambeeg, S. C. He shines like any rainboiv — and perchance his colors are as transient. Corresponding Secretary, Second Censor, Recording Secretary, First Censor, and Vice- President Preston Societv ; Class Baseball, ' 09- ' 10, ' lO- ' ll, ' 11- ' 12: College Marshal, ' 09- ' ' 10; Chief Marshal, ' lO- ' ll ; Glee Club, ' lO- ' ll ; Presiding Officer Junior Debate. Wait a minute ! Henry is not so innocent and calm as he appears to be. If you think so, defame Coleman Bleasc, and you will see calmness transformed into a raging storm. He is a special favorite of the fair sex — being a second G. Washington. His favorite pastime is teasing. He becomes very wild when he gets away from the inspiring influence of same. 22

NELSON WALSER EDENS Clio, S. C. Let the world slide. Calhoun Society; College Marshal, ' 09- ' 10; Class Baseball, four years ; Class Football, four years ; Inter-Class Football, four years : Manager Class Football, ' 11- ' 12; Varsitv Base- ball. ' OS-m ' 09- ' 10, ' lO- ' ll, ■11- ' 12; Class Prophet. ? ! ! ! These dashes, etc., are used for the response met with when Waltz is asked to pass the sugar at Fairyland. This is an outgrowth of petulancy acquired in his early youth. His love for self-adornment varies strongly. On week days it is almost abnormal, while on Sunday it is entirely lacking. He is a baseball artist, and therefore a hero to the youth. Waltz also is a friend to his friends, and a mystery to all (the rest). HENRY LRBY ELLERBE Bennettsville, S. C. Behold your King! ' ' Entered ' 07, dropped out ' 08, reentered ' 09 ; First Censor Calhoun Society ; Freshman Speaker; Class Baseball, ' 07- ' 08, ' 11- ' 12; Class Football, ' 11- ' 12; Inter-Class Football, ' 11- ' 12. The King, or Pool-oo, as he is fandliarly known, came to college some five or six years since with all sorts of possibilities bundled uo in him. His inherent modesty has kept back the most of them. That he is of a poetic temperament is shown not only in his use of. English, but from the fact that nothing appears to him like the music of the spheres. His practical demonstrations are convincing. 21

JOHN LYLES GLENN, JR. Chester, S. C. There is integrity in his eye. ■ Monthly Orator, Corresponding Secretary, Treasurer, and President Preston Society; Class Baseball, three years; Captain, two years; Captain Class Football, four years; Inter-Class Football, four ' years ; Catcher Varsity Baseball, four years ; Speaker Fresh- man Exhibition; Speaker Sophomore Exhi- bition ; Junior Debater ; Class Historian, ' 08- ' 09; Vice-President Class, ' 09- ' 10; President Class, ' 10-11; Bohemian Staff, ' 10-11; Recording Secretary S. C, I. O. A.; Secretary Student Body, ' OP- ' IO; President Student Body, ' 11- ' 12; Treasurer, and President, Y. M. C. A. ; Member College Council. Pud is the model of what most of us wish to become. His limit of dissipation is a cup of weak tea. He is an all-round athlete, a football star, yet his name has never been omitted from the distinction list in any of his studies since he came to college. DAGNALL DEVORE GRANT Saluda, S. C. O, it is excellent To have a giant ' s strength. Preston Society; Class Basket-ball, ' 09-TO ; Class Baseball, ' 11- ' 12; Class Football, ' 08- ' 09, ' 09- ' 10, ' lO- ' ll, ' 11- ' 12; Inter-Class Football, ' lO- ' ll; College Marshal, ' lO- ' ll ; Junior- Sophomore Debater; Athletic Editor Bohe- mian. The change from the hard work and scant fare of Saluda caused Dag to begin to fatten immediately on arrival, and since then only the anxious and loving care of his friends has warded off the ever increasing danger of apoplexy. If he lives he will stand as a firmly- founded tower of refuge for his fellow men, for he has a heart as big as his body, and a pair of feet bigger than them both. 23
