' S|||iEEEtolIglBag BENJ. H. CROSLAND, C. E., Rochester, New York Member of Civil Engineering Society, Member of Western Society of Civil Engi- neers, Assistant Baseball Manager, Business Manager of Engineering Quarterly. With apologies to Riley: Cross was ' Warrened ' against the woman, ' Nell ' was ' Warrened ' against the man, And if that won ' t make a wedding; Why, there ' s nothing else that can. JOHN ALEXANDER MACDONALD, C. E., Putnam, Connecticut Member of Civil Engineering Society, member of baseball team 1913, member of Temple Society. Some people feel that John has besn deluded, but be that as it may he has no time to feel blue because hs is never without an engagement. Mac is another of our good roads men. FRED KELLAM, B. C. E., Arcadia, Indiana Member of Civil Engineering Society. Kellam is one of our brightest students. He is liked by everyone in the class, and we know a great future is in store for him. His wonderful appetite for novels is only exceeded by his extreme fond- ness ( ?) for girls. Fritz is surely some ladies ' man. Never mind, Fritz, you have our sympathy. EDWARD GUSTAF LARSON, C. E., New London, C onnecticut Fair product of Sweden. Trackman, baseball, football, general all-around man- ager. Manager-in-chief of Engineering Quartsrly. Member of the Civil Engi- neering Society. Lars has helped the spirit of the class to develop in big bounds and we wonder what 1915 will do without him. He is noted for his humor and is a great favorite of the girls. RALPH M. PALMER, C. E., Osterdock, Iowa A member of the Civil Engineering Society. He is also a member of the Bachelors ' Club. But there is a reason. Ralph is patiently awaiting the day when he can return to Minneapolis. That ' s the reason. We have not a more careful student in our class and none who deserve more success. CLAYTON D. McQUISTON, C. E., Valparaiso, Indiana President of Civil Engineering Society, Advertising Manager of Engineering Quar- terly. Mac has a habit of being out of town on Sundays. Just why — no one but Cross ever knows. Clayton is a natural mixer who cannot help but succeed. GEORGE WALTERHOUSE, B. C. E., South Bend, Indiana Old George came h3re with Old Frank, whenever that was. An all around athlete; baseball, track, football. Member of Civil Engineering Society. A man any college would be proud to claim. A good student and hard worker. George was the managsr of the Civil Engineering Co-ed Department. FREDRICK B. BENSON, C. E., Grand Rapids, Michigan Member of Civil Engineering Society. Cal or Calculus Benson is the class authority on piers and pile-driving. Like the rest of the class he is a model young man who studies hard and stays in at night. 62

ggaaai PERSONALITIES GEORGE ADEBERT PARKER, B. C. EL, Ogden, Utah Member of Civil Engineering Society, Secretary of the graduating class. George has a strong liking for Indiana products even though he makes his home in the rich irrigated valleys of Utah. Parker is our Hydraulic expert. ARCHIE JOHN WINNINGHAM, C. E., Blythedale, Missouri Member of Civil Engineering Society, Class Testator. The silent orator from Missouri who must always be shown. He is one of our clearest thinkers and a star mathematician. But Archie liked the movies. Until lately, he always went alone. Things are different in the summer term, you know. WARREN K. DILLON, B. C. E., Wilmington, Dalaware Alias Cupid, Kip, or Dandy. Member of Civil Engineering Society, Treas- urer of Senior Class. Warren has ' always been our chief collector. If we needed money we gave Dandy the job. He is our best baseball fan. At pres- ent, his interest centers most on Joliet. JOSEPH WILLIAM SCHNEBLY, C. E. Hagerstown, Maryland President of Graduating Class, President of Civil Engineering Society, Instructor in Mechanical Drawing. He has seldom been absent from class and has always made high grades, even in Sagerology. He has an essay on The Benefits of Good Roads to Our Rural Schools, (and Sclioolma ' ms). PAUL ALBERT EDWARD FLUX, C. E., Portsmouth, New Hampshir; Member of the Civil Engineering Society and Temple Society, baseball and foot- ball representative, Treasurer of Athletic Association, and latest addition to the Faculty. He is a thorough student, and a good fellow; a baseball fan, and a lover of music. Paul is a loyal New Englander. JOHN DUNCAN MACFARLANE, C. E., Grandin, North Dakota Our John D. is as rich in good natur? as Coal Oil John D. is in simoleins . He shone as toastmaster at our last annual banquet and is again on the job as Class Poet and Editor. John is forever quoting poetry. People who know say there is a reason. He was a member of the Civil Engineering Society. (Copyrighted by Dillon Schnebly.) DEWITT EARLE WADDLE, C. E., Taylorville, Illinois A quiet and very unpretentious young gentleman who has won the respect of his class. He is an able student in all things; but his most noted achievement is in astronomy. Neither clouds nor rain prevent him from seeing Venus whenever he feels inclined to gaze upon her. 61

EARNEST AUGUSTUS TUCKER, B. C. E., Lynn, Massachusetts President of the Civil Engineering Society. Editor in Chief of the Civil Engi- neering Quarterly. Member of the Faculty. Assis tant author of Plain Survey- ing Field Manual. Tucker leaves us to go into the contracting business. We cannot think of him as being anything but successful. EUGENE GELLONA PIOVERA, C. E., Santiago, Chile Member of Civil Engineering Society. Our only representative from the southern world. Gellona is one of our very best students. He is also a great lover of music; an expert in bridge-design, and one of our most clever mathematicians. We can see no reason why some day he will not be the President of Chile. FRED C. HARMS, B. C. E., Grafton, Wisconsin Member of Civil Engineering Society. A quiet, hard-working young man, whose two aims in life are to overpower Campbell ' s Calculus and to prevent the fair sex from planting kisses on his rosy cheeks. His friends may well be proud of him for his many sterling qualities, and we predict for him a life of many works well done. FRANK J. SKALANDZIUM, C. E., Waterbury, Connecticut A member of the Civil Engineering Society. This gentleman ' s greatest trouble is his name. But with all that he is a good fellow. For the benefit of those who come to Valpo in the future he has left a thesis on the construction of a new grandstand. STANLEY E. STODDARD, B. C. E., Shortsville, New York As important as the stats he represents. Stodd came from Shortsville, New York, in 1912. Baseball manager, member of Civil Engineering Society, member of Temple Society. He is the grand old man of V. U. baseball, the boy that put the base in baseball. Besides a ball player, Stoddard is a student of rare ability. FRANKLIN T. RICHARDSON, B. C. E., Frankfort, Kentucky Member of Civil Engineering Society. Rich is a native of the blue grass state. He is a jolly good fellow and enjoys a good joke. If you want an opinion on white cats, ask Rich — he loves ' em. Incidentally, he is quite a connoisseui of antique furniture. WILLIAM WINFIELD CLARK, C. E., New York City, New York Member of Civil Engineering Society, Assistant City Engineer. This young con- sulting Engineer hails back East. H was an expert in all his work, from building sewers to running a gas engine. Clark goes back to New York to enter the field of politics. AUGUSTIN W. MALINOVSKY, C. E., Kovel Volenscoi, Gubermy, Russia Member of Civil Engineering Society. A big-hearted, hard-working and con- scientious student. He came all the way from Russia to join us. His work will, perhaps, be structural design and we predict for him the maximum success.
