The piclure above is indeed rare-il is a pic- lure ol Big Ed al resl. This handsome lellow is well known lor his exuberance and enlhusiasm. Whenever Ed does somelhing he puls his hearl and soul inlo il-whelher parlicipaling in Glee Club. a loolball game, lhe Bric or going oul wilh Mona. Big Ed is quile lhe ladies' man: perhaps lhis is due lo his allendance al lhe Barnard School lor Girls. lWe promised nol lo lell anyone aboul Tl-lATl. However, Ed soon realized his mislalce, and eighl years ago, as a lillle boy in shorl panls, he came here lo ioin Mrs. Leon's class. This was lhe same year lhal Pele Parnell enlered Barnard. Thal evenl marked lhe begin- ning ol a lriendship slrong and lasling and ol a powerlul combinalion - lhe personilicalion ol lhe Barnard Spiril. ln shorl, Ed is IOO per cenl for Barnard, be il in social alfairs. exlra-curricu- lar aclivilies, sporls, or sludies.

For years now Ed has lried lo inleresl anyone in forming a rille leam, and because he is lhe lype ol lellow lhal lailure never dishearlens, he never losl hope. This year Ed's dreams have been realized lor so il seernsl because one ol lhe lirsl lhings lhe leam plans lo do is challenge lhe lacullyllo a DUEL. While lhe resl ol lhe class was in a conslanl slale ol iillers over admillance lo college, Big Ed lurned a deal ear lo all our sob slories. Fool around wilh applicalions, examinalions, inler- views? Nol Ed! When he decided lhal Slevens lnslilule, a lew blocks lrom his housel was his choice, Ed merely senl lhem a lranscripl ol his school record. When lhey saw lhal, lhey grab- bed him quick, and lo make sure lhal he would slay lhey gave him a scholarship. When Ed graduales lhis June, Barnard will lose a hard worker, a good alhlele. an axcellenl sludenl, and a swell guy.
