And now we have but memories Of vie fries met and v.on. Four years we've labored side by side, Made friends we're loathe to leave; Forty together have stood the test, And our parting we'll all grieve. Many have left us on the way, Unable to make the grade; But the rest go on unceasingly, Bravely and unafraid. The last class passes, and we all know That w '11 never pass again As the honored Seniors of thirty-three To meet in a jolly band. Perhaps we'll never meet again I3in the group of high school days. Some will travel in countries far; Some gain honor and praise. But where'er we are, and whatever we do, In memory we'll always see Our happy, carefree, high school days As the‘Seniors of Thirty-Three.

Signed CHILD CADE Miss Margaret Buckley, sent out by the State Department of Health, conducted classes in Child Caro, here this winter. The c:ass was open to nil Home Economics students, and all other: interested in it. There were a series of eight lessons. She provided lesson sheets for each member of the class, which contained a summary of the lesson to be discussed, each Tuesday afternoon . The foregoing instrument was at the day aforesaid signed and declared by the Senior class to be the last will and testament, in the presence of us, who at their request in the presence of each other, have subscribed our names as witnesses. J V HY TEACHERS GET GRAY These are some of the reasons The bluffer. The boy with the loud voice and empty head. The fellow who took the course before....The sweet little co-ed who doesn't know what it's all about, but who needs at least a B in the course. The silent bird who might have something worth while to say but who keeps this something hidden. The collegian who hasn't road that far in the text and attempts to stage a filibuster and throw the class off the track. The deadly serious young radical who knows only that he's radical. The equally serious young conservative who believes only what his grandfather believed. And the boy who is taking tho course just for the credit. The sloepers don't count unless they snore. Four years of class discussions have given us sympathy for the teachers. No wonder he gets gray. I SLEPT IN AN EDITOR'S BED In a certain village the editor of the local newspaper roomed at the hotel. Being absent one night, and the hotel being crowded, the landlord gave his room to a stranger. The next morning a slip of paper was found pinned to the pillow case. It rc'c! I slept in an editor's bed lest night, And others may say what they please ; I soy one editor there is in the world That certainly takes his case. When I thought of my humble cot, avay, I could not suppress a sigh, But thought as I rolled in the feathery nest, How easi ly editors lie . Whereupon the editor publish-led the following rhyme with it. The chap whose form has rested j here, | And lift his copy behind, I For erbed impression should be loc ked up, | As the cut is most unkind. I Behold a proof of how he lies: In the morning he v ent away, j And like many that use an editor I sheet, JH s forgotten the bill to pay.

Some came up from the Eighth Gre.de, where they had for many months been busily engaged in storing their minds with the honey of wisdom; some were green and fresh from a far country; some came from farms where they had been tillers of the soil; and some were from other hall§ of instruction. It came to pass that they were received with malicious glee by a certain bank of wild beings who were called Sophomores and who because of’their fierce taste for Freshman blood, did pounce up them daily and nightly, and did cause them to suffer great things, And as they dwelt long in the land, they fell in with the customs of the inhabitants thereof, and their strangeness wore away, and they each became as one among the rest. Now it came to pass at the beginning of the second year that a new band of youths did come up from the adjoining territory. And the class of 30 in the new dignity of their promotion, remembered the days of their own oneness and as the sophomores of their day had done unto them, even so did they do unto these new (freshmen, and did show no mercy I un-jo their sufferings, and no .heed u:roc their lamentations, until all were bruised and full of much sorrow. Now it so happened that this land to which they had come was ruled over by one known as Mias Jesswein a teacher of much wisdom, and at the beginning of the second year she spake unto them saying, Go gather ye in a body and organize yourselves into a class, that ye may gain in strength and at your courage may wax hot. And as she spake unto them, so it was done, and they chose for their leaders, Doris Valentine, President first semester and Lucius Hogue second. Because it pays to advertise the sophomores thought it wise to wear upon their breasts an emblem of the class of 30 . So they purchased pins in shape of a shielu with B. 3. H. S. 1933 on them, so that everyone may see the clan to which they belonged. The leaders called forth the class to come unto a party which wao to bo held in the auditorium ana to join in tho game of bunco. At the end of the yea.r this mighty class planned a picnic to celebrate their uror.iotion to higher levels. They went to Indian Lake with many shouts of glee which showed they were having much fun in the water and on shore. ,1 It ’’ 1 i. - s-2 r i v J i i T . j i . i ,i , • •! ...� t«r. ‘ Now from the class: that w a great cry went up throats of the greedy Lo 1 if it doth happen are to prepare a banquet, I I Icomo mini,? I I ' '' ! did - w after many days, it appeareth that there is much need of many dollars wherewith to provide the food, song, and dance thereof I And so, thinking these things, the class sold candy, all t-hat year, that money might bo brought into the treasury. And bchibld it did likewise come to pass, at about this same time the class, with the | help of the Seniors did present j to the people a great and wonderful play, v hercin each should 1 act what he was not; and they did choose as a sacrifice The Zarly Bird. And lo 1 again the awful deed was done; and the multitude did cry out in their h hearts, Heaven forgive them, for they know not what they do J , and with their lips, How grand ■ I and vvonde -ful this thing which j ye have done ! And the heads of the class did become swelled to their fullest capacity at the praise they did receive for the murderous deed they had done. Now when the four and twentieth day of the fifth month I of the year of two and thirty ! was fully cono, this class did give a great feast, and did send i messages all over who land, cert,} west, north, ar.J sort-, t.o al.l thei inhabitants thereof, saying, Come ye, and make merry wiwh us;j for the class of two and thirty, , is to depart to a far country anui all things are now ready for c | feast And as they were bidden, so they in large numbers to the 1 set appart, ana did oat of + gcoa tnings of the land and rejoice with the class of two thirty, at the good fortune i .d come to thorn, in rein: r for all their long and paoion that had benold, as the class in great rejoic-land of plenty of promise, they did overtake young gentlemen and one dam-vho were wandering alone, and cried with a loud voice, to be into the Class. And as thev ? a toring at the tasks boon set before them. And • ent on its .ng through unu two sol no taken way the orrise, And as the spake unto them, even so did the class of three and thirty listen and have, compassion unto them, and it was done unto them even as they had asKed. And lo, the whole number at the end of this third year v as . forty. m ________ige Now this, the fourth year the history of this groat and wondeffn} Class of 33 has been one of much hard labor, and but liftie resting by the way side; for preparations have boon’ making final r v. j for them to take their dep .rfu'e from the land. .nn it shortly came to pass tuc.t the members of the Class began to ’ rite down the greatest and ..net v.onooffu! of thoughts such as m one over had tnought before •since the beriming of the world, upo . sinots and shoots of fools-a; , that the people who should come into them to listen unto words of deop scholarship upon the n.’ght of their Class Night, should not needs bo turned away in disappointment . I i SENIOR CLASS HISTORY CONTINUED It is conceded fact that the road to knowledge is attrac-tivelywide and leads directly to the High School and scores of youths'and maddens enter this edifice. It Is sad to admit, however, hat--many of these young people like the young SGypi'is-n ruler- become discouraged. because there are No royal roads -tfl education and they soon drop out cf the ranks of their struggling classmates abandoning the aspiration of , being a full fledged graduate. So it has boon in the case of this class, but fortunately others quickly stepped in and tonight there are forty in our ranks. As to athletics, the class of 33 is no mean class. Eighty per con t of the personnel of the basket ball team, which participated in the sectional tournament, belongs to us. In interclass activities, our class possesses the title of champion in basketball and track. To prove wo are not lacking in dramatic ability’ we, together with the class of 34 successfully staged The Antics of Andrew to a large, and appreciative audience. After careful consideration of the executive ability of'.this class, the following officers were unanimously elected; President, Henry Dunkleburg; Vice Pfesident, Ruby Sunday; Secretary, Lewis Edwards; Treasurer, Leota Robinson. In this class of 33 , whilr the girls are in the mihority in number, when it comes to knowledgdq, they are very much in the majority as the highest honors were carried off by two girls, Pearl Tobias beingt the Salutatorian, and Leota Robinson, the Valedictorian, For three years under its faithful sponsor, Miss Jesswein has the class of 33 lingered in the Hall of knowledge and searched its golden treasures and now under the flying colors-- Old rose and steel gray we arc about to leave its portals, each going his separate way, to find his niche in this great world of ours. But let us not be weary of well doing, Some of us may be called upon to sow, while others may reap; may the blessings that ever attended the noble and the good and the true, follow and abide with us, each and all, now and forever.

Doolittle---Edward Walton The leading parts were taken by Howard Meyer, Lucius Hogue, and Lewis Edwards, The characters were well, portrayed and many said that it was the best play ever produced in the High School. The audience ’:ras in an uproar throughout the entire play. The scene was laid in a Western college town. Andrew Brown, a college youth perwuades a millionaire uncle in Australia to make an allowance for the support of a purely imaginary wife and mother in law. The uncle pays his nephew, an unexpected visit to meet Andrew's wife and Mother in law. Andrew persuades his two pals, Willie and Harold, to take the parts of his wife and mother in law, dressed as women. Then follows a grand mix-up, but ending happily for all, with Andrew forgiyon and Uncle Isac satisfied.

Class Night should be and -round us, the same soft breeze is dedicated to these people who v Yovm about us, fanning into have made our education possible 1 vital flame the soark of life and we take this occasion to thanF.-.i thin us, coaxing it to sprout our parents and teachers for so nd grow upward into the type of doing and say that wo are espec- | plant it was designed. New J comes the springtime call of life J eternal change. The present paradise cf wonders and nir- shpere of our being has been out-les which only those vho have J giown, ,7e hrve absorbed all the ielly glad to welcome you. The garden of the world is a paradise cf wonders and nir-ac their inner sight wide open to th $ life-force it hod. Vfe no longer mysteries of life may recognize. In every tiny seed is the glory of creation. Some one has written--The poppy seed, it lies in the hand, a grain of dust ) need the protection. Now we must J p'ioh forth and shoot out stalks J that ore to be our life's ex-J pression. Dear friends, my classmates motionless, unlively, desd. Yet | have conferred upon me the great think what it holds, the cool grey-green of the upspringing stalks and leaves, the compact calyx, and within crumpled like a baby's hand, the shining silk of the beautiful petals. Tonight we, as a class, are just pushing forth from the tiny I honor of binding you welcome, j appreciate the mark of their J favor; but as I look upon your i faces so much more clearly marked learly j with lines of wisdom and exper-i ience then ours may be for years to come, I cannot but feel that the work of welcome should come seed to grow upward to a full ex-! from you. To be sure you show press ion of maturer life. All your i.-terest in us by being here these years we have been shelter-|tonight yet ,it is wo who are ed in the tiny sphere of the seedling, protected from the (passing out into your midst, v;e j who are joining you in the school rougher elements of the soil and j of progress, we who are entering air and played upon by every ’into vour mtrsuits and nourishing force necessary for our development. Within ourselves has lain dormant every possibility our future may be able to manifest. No effort of Nature has been spared to a-waken each spark of life to in- nto your pursuits and pleasures and becoming one with you in -the social and business centers that jmake up active life. Is it not we j then who should ask for the glad I hand of welcome? ! Is it not we who are seeking jadmittance to your midst? Is is dividual expression and wonderfuljnot we, tho1 ve have the pleasure reality of being. For these few; years we human seedlings have been nurtured in this fertile spot of God's universal gardenj_ acted upon by the same elements, cared for by the Same painstaking gardeners who have loved us into being because of the possibility they saw under the rude husk. The same force has given to each the wioc.essaxy portion of sustaining of entertaining you at this turn in the road must yet step forward and demand a share in all that has lean yours for so long? Then while we do humbly thank you for coming tonight and trust that you may have cause to long remember the associations of this hour v;e feel that we must ask for your sympathy and crave from each the warm handshake and smile that will assure us of joy in our wel-c ome. VALEDICTORY ADD!. So Deer Friends, Teachers and Cla ssrastes ■ --Our little boat stands at rest tonight at the bend ing of the stream, Launched but' not anchored, and we are pausing awhile to draw in our breath for the work ahead:. The boyage of life is through many deep and winding channels and it is hard for us to tell just what we will meet next. It seems a long course to follow, as we row through the waters and ve are ofte tempted to let our little craft drift wherever it may; but as we rest upon our oars and look back, the distance we have come seems very short after all, and the banks still appear very near. • It is pleasant to pause here at the bending of the stream, and think for a little while of the pleasant calmness o f t he ripples through which we have so easily been rowing; but ve cannot linger long, for already the sound of life's larger waters is calling us, and we know that ve must row ahead out of the quiet shallow current of our young life, where we have been able to drift, end pull hard through the deeper channel against the stream of active life. Dear Parents, Guardians and Friends, we cannot pass forever out of this quiet channel into the deeper waters awaiting us, without thanking you from the bottom of our hearts for the privilege of beginning our voyage of life in the calm and clear stream of Berrien Springs High School. For four years we have glided smoothly along, so smoothly that we can hardly realize our own efforts tc reach our present position. Our teachers have carefully guarded us from the dangers which we are sure to meet in our onward course. We owe to you the privilege of beginning our voyage under such happy quidance; and we want you to know how much we appreciate your loving thoughtfulness before we sail onward tonight, through the ■sea cf larger life awaiting us. To you, dear teachers, we can only express our earnest thanks. Often in the days to come, when we rill be thrown upon our own guidance, we will remember your careful piloting and long to feturn to your protection and quidance. As your eyes follow us on may you still see a class that is not afraid to show its colors and perform its pert in the sea of bigger opportunity. And thus, Classmates, we linger at the bend of the stream— the end of our course together. Now each must row alone through separate channels, wherever and to whatever they may lead. Let us, as the waves of life force us apart, keep our old rose and grey, with all they mean to us, ever flying at the mast-head. Let us face every duty of the unknown waters bravely, the principles of honor and loyalty ever turning the pilot-v;heel, as we sail on to that success no graduate of this dear school can ever fail to win. Onward, through deep channels, May we ever stray, Waving from all panels, Our old rose and grey; May e keep them floating On each breeze so high, True ideals denoting, As we say, Good-bye’. NAMELESS VERSE When from school we are dismissed, A diploma in our fist, We'll look back with gladsome mood Thinking that we turned out-Good. If ourselves ve could but see, We'd begin to think that we Weren't so bright as first we thought, See that we turned out as Haught. CL .S: PKCPH3CY Time: 1960 Scene: A living room.

September, 1931, found forty sophomores enrolled, a slight decrease from that of the previous year. Miss Buell was our class sponsor, with Esther Scofield president the first semester and James Davis the lost semester. Again we had several boys on the baseball and basketball teams, v ith another successful year completed, school closed with a fresh men-sophomore picnic at Indian Lake.

These be- j v ildered freshmen were in an a', ful daze whan it came to algebra, English and the other subjects, Some even ventured tp take Latin. Most of them managed to thrive, but several dropped out. Those who did stay were interested in athletics and music Especially proud were they of the fact that they of all the classes had the largest number on the honor roll each period of both semesters, Joe Haggerty was the president the first se� mest-er, and Leon Burgoyne the second term. Again, in the fall, September 12, 1932, fifty-two sophomores entered.

SCHOOL EXHIBIT Last year the custom of ha having a yearly exhibit was established. This is for the benefit of the parents in order that they might Know what the pupils are doing. This year it was a big success. Several of the rooms had very attractive exhibits. Mrs. Crittenden's room had a very pretty scene made by the eighth grade. It was a house with all the furniture in it and cleverly landscaped around it. Miss Mann had a plantation house and negro cabin besides various other things. The Language room showed by charts the relation of foreign language to English. There ..’ere also letters and bookreports written • by the Juniors and Seniors. Mr. Bedinger had his boys make many things such as tables, boats, porch swing, footstools, magazine stands, pedestals, very clever writing desk, etc. The other rooms were of equal interest. Some of the rnen were especially attracted to the cooking room by a table which was all s't ready for the meal to be served. In the grade building the teachers gave very interesting exhibits. One of the best was in the Music room where the art of all the grades and high school was shown. The kindergarten showed several airplanes made by the pupils and some pieces of art. The third grade had one gooc feature--it had one tabic set with a proper breakfast and another with an improper break- 1 m S t This exhibit was an improvement over last year's and •e all hope they will improve i. the future. Pearl Tobias During the year of 33 the Department of Mannual Training has accomplished many things. Many fine pieces of art have been turned out. Also under the leadership of Mr. Bed’nger who has sacrificed himself to run the jointer and sawcf which he has suffered immensely in order that he may make the work better. The department also helps build and repair the school property, furnishes help gate piayd and -many other th.i ngs that couldn't be carried without this aid. Many architects have been grddunted from this department in the previous years and many others are coming forward to takd their places. The department had afina display and exhibit that shows'? the work that has been put into those find pieces of furniture. Shop is a good subject for those fellow students now entering or those here- in school. Each young man in school should take advantage of this great opportunity that; i3 before him. There are two lathes, a band saw and a jointer in the machine shop and twenty benches. There is a finishing room where the painting and varnishing is done. Several boys have made boats and there are one or two writing desks. This year the school added a new class to their former schedule, it being the High School Art Class. A great number of student ] beginning the ner course. During the entire year we hove been learning different phases along the lines of art. Our first project being pencil sketches of landscapes and trees, the student shoeing an amazing talent. Next our art instructor had us make portfolios for our art pieces. After this, we took up designing :and its elements sc v;e might have some knowledge about the fundamentals. Our next project was the making of desk sets. D'c found this to be fun as well es artistic Following that we -started on water color paintings, the subject being The Ourdoor Living Room . This took a great deal of our time and it proved out exceptionally fine. The best of the class t ork was s nlt to a County Exhibit whore they won a prize. The prize money was used to purchase n water color reproduction. After our wonderful success along that line, Mrs. Griffith decided to have us learn the proper types of lettering, our project being the making of the alphabet in the different types of lettering the individual might select md then pointing them using india ind. We also made our own monograms. By this time our class res drawing to ? close and our last projects were the making of waste paper baskets end dif-ferent articles out of raffia, such e belts, purses and hot dish mat All in all, the art class has beer, a success, even to having an • rt exhibit so that our p .verts might see our art work :s r grot p. We feel that it no been due mostly through the help of cur instructor Mrs. Griffith, ana ve re hoping for another art class again next ye or.

BANQUET '32 In May 1932 in a clearing surrounded by green bushes and trees two gypsy bands gathered oe3ide a waterfall in the wide open spaces of Berrien Springs High School. Camp was laid beside the covered wagon of the wanderers on which letters in blue and silver, purple and gold told that that wagon belonged to tho classes of 1932 and 1933. Ih the evening under a darkened sky, in the clearing, lighted only by a crescent moon and candles on tho tables, a huge feast was enjoyed. The tables were arranged in horseshoe formation to bring luck to the departure of half oX the company, the class of '32. At one side of the clearing a fire burned under a large black chaldron, about which musicians wore gathered, the soft strains of their music floating to tho feasters between other numbers of the program which were introduced oy toastmaster Richard vVearne. Gypsy waiters and waitresses crept noiselessly among the guests replacing empty dishes. Red bandana handker-chicvcs served as napkins and chaldron nut cups were given as favors. The dusky coloring of tho table decorations was shown off by the candle light. After the feast the tables wore taken away and beneath the moon the guests danced as the orchestra played more pieces. Thus two classes, those of 1932 and 1933 enjoyed their banquet in the gymnasium of Berrien Springs High School.

There mai y colored lights in back of the waterfall and ferns and other plants were near and around the falls which added to the beauty and naturalness of the falls. Many of the visiting tribe enjoyed this better than the wagon representing both clans. Berrien Springs varsity accomplished what no other team has been able to do, that of beating Buchanan in tournament play at Nies. Buchanan went through that season with only one .t. defeat, that by a B class school, Niles, Thy defeated Berrien twice in very close games, but at the district tournament, the tables were turned and Berrien won by a score of 15-14. The team played Cassopolis the next night and won by the overwhelming score of 34-11, The third night they met Bridgman, where 'they had defeated twice in scheduled play but that night everything went wrong and Berrien came home with a defeat of 29-26. As there were more than 8 teams entered in class C. Berrien Springs was able to go to Kalamazoo as a runnerup. The first night they played Lawrence and won 11-10. The next night they played State High. State High wo. by a very large score but Berrien didn't click after the first quarter. At the close of the first quarter Berrien led 8-Obut could not score after that. State High lost by one point to the champs to Berrien had its most successful season on the basketball court. The team is made up of Seniors except P;iddy and Manes. The Seniors are: 1. Paul Hamann--captain and guard. He was high point man for the season and was given the honor of being all district guard. He is an all-round athlete, being prominent in track and baseball as well. He is popular and a friend of everyone. 2. Henry Dunkelbcrg--Although shorter than most of the team, he made up for his height in speed. He did quite a bit of the scoring for Berrien and would probably hatee been a great help to the team in tournament .play except for illness which kept him from playing any of the late scheduled games and any tournament. 3. Richard V7carno--Ono of the tallest men on the team was the center and although he did score quite a few points he was the toalh feeder to the scorers as his height enabled him to act as pivot man on most every play. He is versatile, too, competing in track as well as basketball. He has an exceptionally good voice and takes an active part in school life. Ho is popular with everyone. 4. Merle Stemm--forward and third high point man for the season is a veteran along with Hamann. He is not as tall as some of the team but had an exceptionally good eye for the basket. This shooting late min te baskets saved several games for Berrien and his one man rally at Niles almost won from Bridgman after everything seemed lost. Stemrn is in other sports, including baseball, where he is second baseman and captain, and he is on the track team. He also sings in t c High School quartet. He is well up in his studies and will be missed by all who have known and grown to like him. 5. Jack Woolley--forward and second to Hamann for individual scoring honors. Jack was one of the hardest men on the team to guard because of his uncanny ability to hit the basket. He scored 20 and j.F cts in conr cuc ve games against teams who are supposed to hr • l : :c dofens- s. He is very popular with his friends and is ki.rvn ior his jokes and wit. 6. Lewis Edwards--substitute forward and guard, could be depended upon to come through in the pinches as he gave evidence .hen lie took Stemms place when Stemm was removed from the Buchanan game at Niles, and played like a veteran. Although handicapped by inis height his basket eye kept him up with the best. 7. Lucius Hogue--substitute forward along with Edwards was also handicapped' by his neight, but his consistent playing and good headwork kept him in line with the rest of the team. Hogue is very popular among the rest of the team and will be missed very much by ali wno have associated with him. 8. Bud Priddv--fche only junior that held a varsity position was guard and although his position kept him from being a scorer. He was regarded as one of the best guards in the country. His playing was very consistent and he kept up the morale of the team whether thev were winning or losing and was an example for his mates. His best performance was given in the tournament game v ith Buchanan. This can be said also of e ery player or. Berrien's team. 9. Wilbur Manes—substitute guard has been with the tear: for two years and will probably be a varsity'r an next year. He is a fast'man and is known as a baseball and track nan. He plays catcher on the baseball nine and is a dash man on the track squad. Interclass Games After the regular basket-ball season was concluded the four high school teams and the eighth grade played several games the Seniors winning every game but one losing one game to Juniors 13-12; The Seniors class of Niles losing by two points. Some very promising material for future teams was uncovered. Has Beens Beat Varsity The local varsity was made up of almost all Seniors men so after the regular season was finished the Seniors who had played on the varsity won two games from next years varsity. It was a rather uneven match as Priddy and Manes were the only letter men back, but the s score wasen't as bad as might be imagined. baseball Traelf and Field Every spring several boys turn out for baseball at Berrien Springs snd this years team had a let of willing players. The season opened with a great win over Sexton’s pitching and Eau Claire, Stsmm’s bat proved the Maroons and as was the victor, was with Coloma Gclcma put up a didn’t have the and Berrien Came too much for a result Berrien, The next game and although good fight they punch to score off with another victory. The third game was not so good as Stevensville seemed to find Berrien quite easy picking and they won 13-4. After one bad enning in which they scored 12 runs. Berrien outplayed their rivals. The fourth gar.e Berrien Springs got back in stride and won from Bridgman oy a score of 20-8. Berrien seemed to have found the punch they lost at Stevensville and scored at and scored at will. Except for a few runs scored when Berrien was napping Bridgman offered’ little opposition. Wilbur Manes was the varsity catcher tms year. He did a good job back of the plate and his , batting eye has considerably improved since last year. He will be back next year. first year this ones Bud irldd; the talkative Oifiseman will be back next But won a name for himself yeaf for scooping up the low that come over to him. Merle Stenm captain and baseman has olayed his last game. He has played four years on the regular team. He was the only left-handed batter on the team. Henry Dunkelburg also has played’ his last game.’ Dunk speared many hot ones on short during his four years and will be missed considerably. Frank Fischer third baseman is also a sophomore and should prove a valuable asset the next two years. Berrien Springs had an intei class crack and field meet to determine just what men should be taken to Niles, and the Seniors won the meet by a very large score. The Sophomores v ete next resbmen third and Juniors fourth The Senior men who goc most of tin, poi.o.c.3 were Wearne and Hamann and 1 Davis.
