ROBERT ROY GRIFFIN WiLLIAMSTON, S, C. ijiay not sliiiic clseivhcrc . but loolc at my head. Memlier Calhoun Society : College Marshal. Griff is possessed of many talents, but, like the ancient possessor of one, keeps them hid in a napkin. He is a musician of great ability, and sings and plays well under provocation. He is frequently seen with a gun on his shoulder, his head just barely round a corner looking for big game, said big game appearing in the form of Rags, his canine friend, who accompanies him on his hunts. Roy ' s greatest weakness is his fondness for b se- ball. If he has missed a game since c iming here, no one has found it out. RYAN DeWITT GUILDS CORDESVILLE, S. C. ' Sccst tliou a iiiaii diligent in his zvay f He shall stand before Kings. Monthly Orator, Third Censor, First Censor, and First Critic Preston Society; Class Basket- ball, ' OQ- ' IO, ' 11- ' 12: Y. M. C. A. Cabinet, ' 11- ' 12; Oratorical Speaker, ' lO- ' ll, ' U- ' IZ. By gum ! he ' s a hot skeet ! He ' s a bean ! This is Guilds ' favorite expression about a good sort of a fellow. We might apply it to him, for when he uses English it should become standard. We reluctantly call him what a girl told us of him, a woman hater. He never writes to a girl. His object in mak- ing his Sunday evening calls is to guy them. And besides, he has a mania for shrouding in mystery all his visits. 24

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

First Critic and Vice-President Calhoun •Society ; ' Junior Debater; Preliminary Wof- ford-Davidson Debater; Glee Club, ' lO- ' ll, ' 11- ' 12; Winner Alumni Science Medal. This dark-haired object does not consist entirely of head ; it also has feet, and in lai-ge quantities. Father is a bachelor, but he is a iirm believer in the fair sex, in his peculiar way, and while he pretends that he is not sen- timental, he has been seen to smile sweetly while deep in letter writing. His hobby is collecting pictures, and he has been known to have as many as two dozen of the same girl arranged on his bureau. BARNEY SMITH HAYNES Pacolet, S. C.

Baby has one of the most highly imagin- ative minds that Wofford has ever produced. His adventures are truly wonderful to hear of, and are told with consummate art and the straightest of faces. Dame Rumor has it that somewhere south of here there is a maiden fair waiting for Baby and his dip. 25
