XVhat more does this world want now it has obtained Evans? Yes, Evans, the debater, the athlete, the society man, the scholar, and, above all, the lazy Zacharius Bon ' Evans! It is a pity, though, that Evans is so bonny. He might be on the lacrosse team. Why, we cannot tell what he might not be in the athletic world if he was not so-well, so, so bonny. By the way, it nearly slipped our overburdened mind-but how could it ?-Evans is the ladies' 11121.11 of the college! Ilow nice he really looks when he is dressed up in a black suit, black gloves, pat- ent leather shoes, and a large white tie! Honestly, he does--pray d0n'tdoubt us-and nobody knows it so well, we are sorry to say, as Evans. CHARLES C. FIELD, JR. Member Bancroft '03g Chess Club '03, Treasurer Bancroft, '03. Descendant of Ichabod Crane. Ich., as far as the editors could discern, was Field's grandmother's aunt's half- brother. It certainly is a wonder how the similarity could have been handed down with such accurate minuteness, but handed down it was, and so long as Field lives we shall have an Ichabod Crane in our community. He lost thirteen cents to Krauk onthe last Presidential election, which the former was mag'nanimous enough to overlook, and ever since Field has considered Krauk his bosom friend-why, he has even deigned to request the latter to accompany l1i111 up in the pit, at the Academy! Q Dutch treat, of course.D 34

ADOLPH C ESMANN. THE GREEN BAG RICHARD J. ESSLINGER. Member Carrollton-Wight Literary Societyg Chess Clubg Athletic Associatioug Member Theta Nu Iota. Hello, lWIsslinger! At tl1is he generally yawns and manages to say Ili! He's a right good sort of a chap: always on hand at class meetings and athletic games. Does not say niuch, but can yell like -- Oh! we mean like a. senior. Loves Dutchg in fact, in order to get the most essential detail, he uses a crib. So quietin the lab that jinnny thought he was working, and the result was an E for the term. Ile told us later thathe was not at work, only trying to see into how few words he could translate Die XVacht aiu Rhcin. Member Carrollton Wight Literary Societyg Chess Club. lisniann is a cute little dear, When he Hrst came to tl1e college his n1a1nn1a brought him. Towards the end of the second year his nurse brought l1in1. Ile has been coni- ing two years by himself now. Occasionally he loses his way and strolls in school about an hour late, but no one seems to take any notice of him. His chief fault lies in the fact that l1e thinks he is handsome. Hill, in a very learned discussion, tried to persuade hinl that he was not, but he teuaciously held to his opinion. Poor, poor boy! I, .,. 33

THE GREEN BAG SAMUEL JAY FISHER. Member Bancroft Literary Societyg Board Cura- tors Bancroft '03-'04-5 Vice-President Bancroft '03-'04g Member Morgan Medal Committee '03-'O4g Brownwalcl Entertaimnent Committee ,03-'04g President Bancroft IO4-'05g Serg't.-at-Arms Ban- croft '04-'05. ' . Historian, politician and critic. Ile appears to know more about George XVashington's private affairs than George knew himself. All Mr. XVright has to do is to ask him a question and there will be no need of questioning any one else in the class. XVhen he starts to talk nothing short of the bell or a knock on the head can stop himg is almost as loquatious as I-Iollander-and that is sayingsonicthing. He seems to be extremely interested in the animometer on the XVeather Bureau's building, for he never recites but thathe first levels his eye on the meter and then launches out- did I say launches? XVell, I meant explode:-B. GEORGE VV. FORD. Member Carrollton-Wigfht Literary Societyg Chess Clubg Treasurer Chess Club '04-'05, This boy has a peculiar habit of spouting what he doesn't know, as well as what he does. His store of the latter is very meagre, but he is a splendid lad and will do anything you ask of him, His love for chemical research is marvelous, and to satisfy his burning' desire to break up apparatus he spends most of his preps in the lab. How he ever got as high as the senior year is a mystery to his friends. He has an awful haggard look when the week is up. Evidently the strain of blutiing the teachers is quite an ordeal. 35 6 Q
