'26 Varsity Club DAVID CHARI.ES MAUGHAN Entered Blake 1920 Dave Williams A decent boldness ever meets with friends. Dave has justly earned for himself the title of The Sage of the Class of 27. His weighty flights of oratory delivered in a ponderous basso have invariably influenced the ultimate actions of his classmates, and the school generally recognizes him as the Zeus among his fellow Olympians. In his lighter moments he lends his august presence to the Choir, composing with Harvey and Ross the Senior element in that little group of earnest seekers after discord. But his real future lies in the gentle art of waiting on table, as Miss Berglund will testify. In all seriousness. Dave has. as editor-in-chief of the '27 Call o’ Pan. done the school a real and lasting service, a service that will be remembered and appreciated long after he has left us for the higher haunts of learning.

' Mac' has clearly demonstrated to all and sundry his uncanny. Heaven-sent ability to get by on almost no work at all. His bright and shining face, caught in an attitude of complete repose, bordering on a state of coma is. he claims, the biggest factor in his phenomenal success. “Mac just revels in good hard work. His endless stock of racy stories delivered in a slow monotone has enlightened the bleak routine of more than one study period, and his “smart cracks have disrupted endless history classes. Seriously. “Mac’s work on the football team has always been of the highest quality, and we look forward with pleasurable anticipation to having him back next year, and the next, and the next.

Ed” is due for a few sly digs from the Call o Pan board, but we will not stoop to petty slander. We can only say that he kept the Torch clean at any cost. His stirring editorials aroused strong feeling in the school, mostly against the Torch. His status as the best-read man in the class is unquestioned, and his extensive library contains some exceedingly refreshing volumes: among them several rare old Haldemann-Julius first editions. It is be cause of this rich literary background that he has acceded to the honored position of class historian, with all the dignity and majesty attached thereunto. In closing, we are moved to say. Drink Nash's Coffee and Enjoy the Best” (not an advertisement). Page 7 went y-one
