Earl J. Wellington, B.S., Salina, Kas. Duke has no time for trifling when he is on the Hill for the purpose of working. However, he has whiled away a few hours in the social whirl of University life. He has been a hard worker and a good student and will make an elegant alumnus for the University of Kansas. Chandler C. Dudley, B.S., Independence, Kas. Dud is another one who has come to us from the Class of 1907, and, judging from his size and the shape of his lower jaw, he must have had a little to do with some of the Class scraps in olden days. Dud is a hard and conscientious worker, and one of the best fellows in the Class, and an engineer in every sense of the word. Wm, Pirschell, B.S., Holliday, Kss. Bill started in to graduate in the fall of 1902, but he waited until now to find a class to graduate with that suited him exactly. Bill can get in- to more devilment in the five minutes between classes than any other man in the University. As expert marksman with chalk, he ranks second only to Tad Ellis. In spite of his broad vein of wit and humor, Bill is one of the best stu- dents in the Class, and, for all any Professor knows, he never committed a misdeed since he has been at K. U. IvOREN Ames, B.S. Base-Ball ' 03. Ames was pitching and winning games for Kansas University when most of us were still in High School, but he, too, chooses this Class with which to leave his Alma Mater. His experience as an engineer, his studious inclinations, his gen- ial manner, and his excellent character, all assure him of a high place in the engineering profession.

Cecil A. Forter, Marysville, Kas. Manager Junior Prom; Chairman Senior Play Committe e; Class Base- Ball ' 06-07 ; Class Bas- ket-Ball ' 05; Class Foot-Ball ' 07; P.S.B.; Senior Play. Zeke, with his nineteen years, is the young- est man in the Senior Engineering Class. Besides passing Chemistry II. at the first jjerformance, he has found time to do his share in Class athlet- ics and politics. During his Junior year Zeke developed quite a case, which bids fair to be worse than that of his illustrious brother. C. L. Burt, B.S., Greensburg, Kas. Chairman Senior Invitation Committee. Red came to us as rather a matured man, and consequently his advice and counsel were highly valuable during our Freshman and Soph- omore years. He is probably now the political boss of the University, and has always been a true and loyal supporter of the University and Class affairs in Athletics, social life, and politics. In spite of all these, he is one of the best students in the Class, and if Red does not make good wherever he is placed, we will miss our guess. JoHX Curtis McCoy, Hiawatha, Kas. 4 A0; Track Team ' 06-07-08; Y. M. C. A. ' Tis better late than never. Mack was not one of the original ' o8ers, but, early recogniz- ing the brilliancy of this Class, decided to cast his fortunes with us. Mac has been more famed for si)rinting on the running track than to classes, but nevertheless managed to graduate with great credit to himself. Considering the fact that he comes from Brown County, Mac has made a great success of his University career, and we are j)roud to claim him as one of us. Jesse J. McShane, B.S., Gardner, Kas. Y. M. C. A.; President Johnson County Club ' 07-08 ; President C. E. Society ' 08. By dropping out one year, Mac managed to work it so he could graduate with this Class. As a (juiet and unassuming man he ranks first in the Class. He was always a reat man for Class af- fairs, either warlike or social, and as a supporter of University affairs had few equals. Mac has demonstrated the fact, by actual experience, that he will make good.

Charles O. Boynton, B.S., Kansas City, Kas. C. E. Scxriety, One of the youngest men in the Class, Charlie ranks among the oldest and wisest in the use of the slide-rule. He claims to be able to tell his future wife ' s name by means of the logarith- mithic table on the back of his slide, and, judg- ing by his p)ast records, we shall expect great things from him and his slide-rule. Charlie has always been a hard and close student, a loyal Class man, a good fellow, and he is bound to make a record after he leaves school. Carl Trowbridge, B.S., Argentine, Kas. Carl is a man who entered the University as a Freshman and who by his own effortsjrose in the world till to-day he bears lightly the dignity of a Senior. He is the junior member of the firm, Rankin Trowbridge, Consulting Mining En- gineers, and deser ' es his share of the success that has come to that firm. The advent of Carl Trowbridge at K. U. settled, once for all, that old question, Can any good thing come out of Argentine? WiLTox A. Vaughn, B.S., Marion, Kas. C. E. Society, Vaughn came to us from the home of our own Governor Hoch, and reads the Marion Record with clock-like regularity. He has always been a hard student, and has always worked for results. Although of a quiet nature, he is as ready for a good joke as any man in the Class. Contrary to the general belief, he is not married. Charles V. Chapin, B.S., Council Grove, Kas. 2E; C. E. Society. Chape is without doubt the most modest and unassuming man in our Class. He stands among the best in the Class as a student, and his ability is recognized by Faculty and students alike. He is one of that kind of guns who is always as ready to help a classmate along or to enjoy a joke as to dig into a deep problem in Mechanics or Calculus. He has always been a loyal supporter of University enterprises, and has lots of Class spirit, and no one in our Class gives more promise for a brilliant future than Chape.
