Alfred S. Carpenter, K'k “Al” Plattsburg New York “Earnestness is enthusiasm tempered by wisdom.” “Al” is the pipe-smoking Beau Brummel of the class. Although he is of the “strong silent man” type, “Al” manages to say just the right word at the right lime, and always has a cheerful word for everyone. Cheerio, “Al” 1 Baseball (1) ; Basketball (1, 2) ; Freshman Hop Committee (1). Gilbert Wesley Collins “Gil” Piercefield New York “Skill to do comes of doing.” During his time in college, “Gil” took an active part in all of our sports and proved his excellence in all of them. The principles of sportsmanship learned in such an active participation in athletics should be a valuable asset to him in his future business.

glerntnc jjjarmafeon William Henry Baldwin Bill” Albany New York “This is indeed to be wise, not merely to see what is before one’s feet, but also to look ahead at those things which are to be.” “Bill” is an ambitious, sincere fellow, and witty on occasions. His record in handball speaks for itself. Ilis keen mathematical mind could always think of problems for us to solve. He has hopes of progressing further in the field of Pharmacy. More power to you, “Bill!” Handball (1, 2, 3), champion of college (2); Chairman, Freshman Hop Committee; Baseball (1, 2, 3): Bowling (1, 2), Class Team (1, 2); Alembic Pharmakon, Business Manager. William Edward Barth “Bill Fredonia New York “High aims form higher characters, and great objects bring out great minds.” “Bill” is a quiet, unassuming fellow who “hides his light under a bushel.” He intends to do detail work for a drug concern after graduation. We wish him good luck in his business ventures. Vernon Oneonta Michael Belli:w, TAX Belle ” New York “Knowledge is power.” Vernon is a hard-working, conscientious fellow, and always a gentleman, an example that we would do well to follow.

Alembic IJbarmakon William Kingsley Comar, PAX uBilV Gloversville New York “A friend should be one in whose un- derstanding and virtue we can equally confide, and whose opinion we can value at once for it’s justness and sincerity.” “Bill” is a true and loyal friend in every sense of the word. Need more be said? His work has been characterized by a desire to get at the true meaning of things. In his Senior year, “Bill” de- cided that two could make more progress in life than one alone, and so it was the “one and only” from back home. We wish them good luck and every happiness! Historian, Senior Class; Scribe, Mortar and Pestle (2) ; Associate Editor, Mortar and Pestle (2) ; Orchestra (2) ; Junior Prom Committee. Franklin James Conger, K'i' “Jim” Warsaw New York “Elegance is something more than ease, more than a freedom from awkwardness and restraint—it implies a precision, a polish, and a sparkling which is spirited, yet delicate.” “Jim” is an example of “what the well-dressed student wjll wear.” Neatness such as character- ized “Jim’s” appearance and his work is an essen- tial quality of the professional pharmacist. “Jim” always smiled, even when everything went wrong, and to the Profs’ delight, he never asked unneces- sary questions. Keep on smiling, “Jim”! Handball (1) ; Freshman Hop Committee. Joan Coons, AK2 “Coonsie” Hudson New York “Dreamers may dream of many things, Schemers may scheme for many kings, Builders may build many a fine home— . But it takes our Joan to write a fine poem.” Although short in stature, Joan is the equal of anyone in mental attainments. She is studious and has a talent for writing poetry. We wonder how she could study so much in so little time. We will always remember her pleasant smile. Lucky Hudson!
