LEWIS DIXON AMIS, A. B. Lott, Texas CabinetT0-T1, ’ll-’ 12, Treasurer, ’ll-'12 Y. M. C. A.; Austinian Staff T1-T2; Supervisor TO Athenzeum Literary Society ; Honor Roll TO, Tl, T2, T3. Lewis is a pretty boy. but oh so tough! When he came to College he was as simple as a little field daisy, but it was not resort to the French to find a word sufficiently expressive to describe him and, so. we call him a “rough-neck.” He is a great advocate of “Frecklenomore Face Cream” and each summer takes the road in the interest of this life saving remedy. It is said that he sold three dozen jars to one un- suspecting female on his own testimony. Lewis’ s greatest weakness is “wine, woman and song.” ALBERT LEE BURKE, A. B. Prosper, Texas Member Y. M. C. A. T0-T3 ; Vice-President Class T0-T1; Corresponding Secretary T2 Athenaeum Literary Society; President T2-T3 Tennis Club ; Base Ball Team T1-T3 ; Class Base Ball Team TO-’ll; Member “A” Asso- ciation T2-T3. Lee is ’from Prosper—and prosper-ity has crowned all his ef- forts with but one exception. He has only a sparsely thatch- hair. May the surviving strands ever stand as monuments to their fallen comrades. Although very quiet and unas- suming during the first three years of his college course, he blossomed out this year into a society flower of the rarest quality. Lee is very popular and is always sdrrounded by some of his friends and agents for hair tonics. When he leaves A. C. his ambition is to monopolize the livery stable business of Sherman. 27

This carnivorous animal is a two-legged. featherless par- adox. being at the same time the oldest and youngest in his class. He has a pompadour and hig feet and is very proud of both. Nature generally hangs simplicity on the face of a fool but Pep is an exception and there is a wise knowing look on his face that is deceiving unless you know him. There is a mutual neutrality between him and the ladies which is unfor- tunate as we believe he would have proved a useful adjunct if not an ornament to society. He is. however, quite an archi- tect and can draw plans for anything from a cob pipe to a chicken coop. He is a fast track man and is, we believe, the JOHN GEORGE DRUMMOND Pittsburg, Texas Art Editor Chromascope ’13; Manager Basket Ball Team ’13; Member Glee Club ’11-’12, ’12-'13; Member Athletic Council '11-’12; Re- cording Secretary ’ll, Supervisor’12, Athe- naeum Literary Society. The only one of his kind in captivity (by request). When only three days old the people of Northwest Canada were called in to see this prodigy and hear him sing. Since then his voice has developed wonderfully and now he can almost sing tenor. He came to us in his first pair of long trousers, having a watch as big as a homemade biscuit as a token of love to the departing son. His friends note with pleasure that he has, during his college course, developed a taste for pleasures other than those attending a rough-house, and it is thought that in time he will develop into a mild, amiable young man. 28
