One often wonders how he can be at one moment so hard boiled and at the next so entirely effeminate. Indeed his superb interpretation of female roles has excited our curiosity and amazement. Excellent as may have been his abilities as football manager, his skill as a hockey, tennis, and baseball player is unexcelled. Considering his scholastic activities one cannot deny that his French translations are pure gems of literature. Without his valuable assistance the professor of that language would have been at a distinct loss. Page Twenty-six

Entered Blake 1921 “Cabie Dartmouth The Devil is an ass: I do acknowledge it.” “Cabie.” again the best all around man in the class, hails from a town called Grafton, in the neighboring state of North Dakota. Brought up in the wilds of frontier life, he entered Blake with a sturdy and rugged physique, which so far has enabled him to carry out his Senior responsibilities admirably. Casting aside his dignity on the gridiron, and trained by daily tussles with the burly “Chub” Dietz, he made his opponents smart under the punishment of his hard and clean playing. His ability as a writer was highly regarded in the English department. “A morbid propensity to sloth and procrastination” was his only fault. Page Twenty-five

Entered Blake 1921 Ed....Lcddy Princeton There does not live his fellow, so he says.” Teddy is a combination of Attila. Hercules. Mercury and Apollo. As an idol of the Lower School he is often seen entering heart and soul into the juvenile pastimes of the little tikes. Time and again he has regaled us with his quaint witticisms in the class room. Despite his youth he has clearly demonstrated his ability on the athletic field, and has become a real factor in Blake athletics. During the winter, due to his accident, the swimming team felt his loss keenly. Fortunately he returns to us next year in all the power and glory of a post-graduate, and we fully expect him to invest his high office with the air of noble dignity, which so well befits him.
