But, there’s more than just that “snap-of-the-finger” attitude Bob takes when asked how he managed to acquire his high marks throughout three years of senior high shool work, which were crowded with many other outside activities. We’ll wager that the same arm that carried the school books home every night will some day be supporting the law books of a prominent lawyer named Robert M. Newell. SALUTATORIAN Industrious, ambitious, tactful, diligent: such words indicate the presence of William V. Wells, salutatorian of the Class of 1934. “Yes, I’ve burned my share of ‘midnight oil’ in preparing my •essons during the past three years,” admitted Bill as he visioned the dozens of pencils, pens, and sheets of paper that he had worn out in preparing the grades that earned him the salutatorianship of his class. Some day, the “midnight oil” which William will be burning will not be in an incandescent, but in the engines of a powerful naval cruiser, which Captain Wells will command. So, with the Class of 1934 supplying two men like these to the world, our country will be assured of a statesman capable of starting a war, and a sailor capable of fighting it for him. Ten
