HARRY KLEBER HERRICK 1105 Worthington Street Springfield, Mass. Harry is a cross between an Ipana ad and the proverbial man of distinction picture with his ever-ready smile and sense of humor always present at any time of the day. During his Eve years at Blair he has established a reputation for being a man with a purpose, but just what it is we haven't learned, unless it is to be the poor man's Bill Stern.

WILLIAM ELLIOT HOPLER 19 Sherman Place Morristown, N. J. Good marks and a good guy, that's the way boys describe our Bill. For al- though plenty serious when it comes to studying, he is never without a smile. The gang from third floor won't soon forget Hop, for during the year his room seemed to be their meeting place.

Reg, the originator of the famous Koehler bid in Blair bridge, can be seen in the smoker playing bridge in some of his free time.
