HAMILTON Lee always knows the right thing to do or what should be done but always knows a reason why he should not have to do it. Sort of tender- stubborn type. On the other hand, we do not know of a boy who has worked more or at a greater variety of jobs. However, after a slow start Lee is be- ginning to bloom ever so slightly. Give him two years more and the mulish streak will be hardly noticeable. Seriously though, here is a fellow who has come a long Way in three years. He won his letter this year in both football and basketball. His grades are relatively phenomenal. He makes his best marks, however, in pursuit of the finny, feathered, or furred creatures, and not all of them are dumb animals! We took a ride with him and can vouch for his skill as a driver and the caution he takes, at least while we were aboard. We are sure that Lee will do well. 24

CREDENTIALS Bay Rat-4 Ace of Diamonds-3, 4 Class Haystack-2, 3, 4 Punctual-3, 4 fweeks laterj f REINEMAN Willie SANDY-BAY ACADEMY We always fondly thought of Willie as a bashful, unassuming soul who speaks in a meek whisper, wears a studious look behind his pale-rimmed glasses, and studies his lessons with dogged persistance. When this young- un's parents took an extended vacation in the Southland, however, it seems that some changes were wrought in his inner-most character Qas well as in the physical topography of the family automobilej. One Monday morning, our idol was irreparably shattered, as a tall, gaunt, yet wonderfully hand- some youth strode unsteadily into school, wearing disheveled hair, heavy eye- lids, and the emaciated countenance of William Reineman. We were exceed- ingly alarmed to trace in his haggard expression, the advanced symptoms of Spring Fever, which threatened to result in a serious heart condition, if treat- ment were not begun at once. Upon questioning, however, Bill weakly re- plied he had spent a restful weekend at a friend's house near the lake,' and then, with a characteristic philosophical look, muttered something to the effect that women can be habit-forming. 23

WINCHESTER SCHOOL FOR HOT SHOTS Come vacation time, Lee invariably retreats to his hidden haunts to hunt pheasant, partridge, and an occasional deer. Naturally his success along these lines has prompted him to try other kinds of game, and rumor has it that he has chased all varieties. Weekends will find him in hor pursuit of more fascinating prey, and as our huntsman once philosophically remarked after a trying encounter with a frolicksome doe, the female of the species is more dangerous than the male. Being the eldest member of the class, he obligingly offers his fellow cohorts fatherly advice, drawn from his wide and varied experience. Mr. Webber explains his tactics in this simple language. First you lay the snare, and then you close in for the kill. Lee has modestly refrained from disclosing, however, just what kind of bait he uses, and just how close he gets for the kill. 25
