Coming to Blair this year after serving with the Merchant Marine ancl Army, Ray gave Blair something that is very unusual-a married student. While serving with the Army in Germany he fell in love with a German girl and they were married during last Christmas Vacation. Only on the campus for class, he will be long remembered as a hard working conscientious student. White Color Club. ARTHUR W. MUELLER Apt. 55, Gifford Avenue Jersey City, N. J. The Mayor of jersey City, Art Mueller, came to Blair a long time ago, just exactly when, no one knows. His love for noodles and frequent birthdays were the talk of the academy during the first few weeks of the school year, but his fine work on the gridiron during the football season overshadowed all of these. As a member of the student council and president of the choir, Big Art leaves behind him a sparkling record.

ROBERT ARTHUR NEFF 561 Beacon Avenue Paulsboro, N. J. Bob really entered with a bang this fall. He quickly took over as East's cartooner during the Peddie rally, and has definitely established himself as the outstanding pianist of the Academy. As lay-out editor of this year's Acta, Bob has done a wonderful job. In the winter term, he could be found on the basketball court with the J.V.'s.

That's what you'll hear all over the campus, and it's a pretty accurate description of tall, dark, 'n handsome Vic. Known to many as Dizzy, he is often heard blowing the wildest trumpet this side of The Royal Roost.

Y. Meyro the Mighty Mite has been proclaimed Emperor of East by virtue of his curly crop of royal red. Pity the poor soccer balls that have met with Ray's feet, because when it comes to kicking about things he tops them all. An authority on anything, and an expert on the women, Meyro is one of Blair's most popular sons. Honor Roll, '48, B.A.A.

JOHN ALLEN MIERS 418 North 29th Street Allentown, Pa. An Allentonian, Miers has gained considerable fame on several accounts. First because of his feats among the mermen. Well liked by the fellows on the hill, he adds spice to the crowd on 3rd East. B.A.A. Foothall, '49, Varsity Swimming, '49, Acta Staff, '49, Out for Varsity Track, '49, White Color Club. SAMUEL H. MORGAN, JR. 31 Main Street Netcong, N. J. A quiet, but nevertheless active student, Sam jr. has the distinction of being an alumnus of South Cottage, an honor not bestowed upon everyone. Rarely found in front of one, he's quite an expert with the camera, possesses some very fine prints of Blair life which he values very highly. Camera Club, '48, '49, White Color Club. J f'C.a,u,1fc

Blair's fashionplate can belong to only one boy, Bob Peigert, for everyone in the school looks to him for the latest in stylish attire. It has been rumored that even his pajamas are perfectly pressed, and who are we to doubt it, since he always as sharp as a tack. Student Federalist, '46, '47g Stamp Club, '46, Camera Club, '46: Acta, '4 Club, '49, Golf Manager, '48, '49g Co-Managerg Wrestling, Co-Manager, STAATS MORRIS PELLETT, JR. 460 St. Nicholas Avenue Haworth, N. J. In his first year up here, Pete has accomplished a great deal. Interested the quieter things in life, Pete would rather listen than talk. Because of rare trait, he is well liked by all that know him. His chief claim to fame is found in his quiet laugh. Camera Club, '49g Science Club, '49g Out for Varsity Trackg White Color Club. CARLOS SANTIAGO PEREZ, JR. Pulmobronk Building, Pte. Restaurador Caracas, Venezuela Although Carlos states that his ambition is to be a great business man, those who know him will agree that he is out for pretty girls first. His letters, if they were translated into English, would undoubtedly be tops on our non-fiction QD list. But still . . . he always walks to the mail room with nonchalance. Varsity Tennis in Spring: Blue Color Club. OSCAR PEREZ Pulmobronk Building, Pte. Restaurador CHNCIS, Venezuela Oscar is a little more on the quiet side than Carlos, but his sense of humor is very keen. Always working hard, Oscar is sure to fulfill his ambition of becoming a great chemist in Venezuela. He is also one of Blair's more prominent Don Juans. Out for Spring Trackg White Color Club. Mr!
