The Thronateeskii PRESTON PINKSTON. “Nappy.” “Come one, come all, this rock sh:.ll fly, From its firm base as soon as I.” Give kings their bauble crowns an l earth’s mighty ones their empty titles.

Nothing else matters to him by comparison—save perhaps the winning glances of a pair of luminous dark eyes. Captain Basketball Team 1920. President Sophomore Boys 1918. Football 1917-18. Basketball 1919. LORA ALLIS. “Make the best of everything Think the best of everybody, Hope the best for thyself.” A dependable .girl—you always know where to find her—on the right side. Lora leads such a straight road through life she’ll never meet herself coming back. A good student of the Classical Group. She knows how to work and when to play, is everybody’s friend in general and somebody’s in particular. Piige Thirteen
