GEORGE HENRY HODGES, JR. 'Ullan dclilgflzls not mv: nn, nor woman neither. Hamlet George . . . good 'ole easy going George! Scholar, athlete, and friend. He excelled in the classroom through plenty of hard work and perse- verance. His record in academics speaks for itself. He displayed versatility by playing football, bas- ketball, and baseball. and he earned a letter in all three. When you heard him laugh, you knew it was George, for his laugh was inimitable. He never seemed to hurry, to get upset: he was quite a philosopher. We will always associate George with that Georgia voice making noon announcements. Although his grammatical construction was invar- iably correct, his Southern drawl often left us in stitches. LYNN CARLTON HIGBY Bye and bye is easily said. Hamlet Lynn Higby, R Company's Second Platoon Leader, was known for his slow, easy-going style of operation. If something had to be done imme- diately, no one ever asked Lynn to do it. Football and baseball were his favorite pastimes, and he spent hours improving his technique in both. Lynn was a member of the B Club through his achievements in athletics. Fairly proficient at aca- demics, Lynn was not the most. industrious of students, but he somehow managed to remain in the upper half of his class. Lynn was often seen in town at social events to which he received a late invitation: however, this made no difference to him for he quickly became a part of the crowd. This easy-going chap is sure to find some easy-going future.

ANDREW WILSON HERRON, III Season your admiration for awhile. Hamlet Andy entered Bolles in the fall of his senior year after attending Lawrenceville Academy for four years. Within the first week Andy was well adapted to Bolles life, but he never lost that much- to-be-desired individualism. While at first he was a staunch Yankee and an instigator of several small scale Civil Wars, Andy seemed gradually to take to the Southern way of life. Possessing dignity, charm, and pleas- ant manners, Andy has made a great number of friends both at Bolles and in Jacksonville, where he took an active part in week-end social life. MARK ARRINGTON HARRIS So weary with disasters, tugg d with fortune, . . . Macbeth Mark, one of the most affable members of the class, was a potentially good student, but he prided himself with being the class joker. His witty comments and diverting remarks often kept an otherwise dormant class from sinking into a morass of boredom. His position as Assistant Day Boy Executive kept him busy in the Canteen, and, as he was the hero of many younger boys, Mark could often be seen during the morning break surrounded by ardent admirers. With his refreshing personality and growing sense of responsibility, Mark should make his mark in life.

DANIEL FREDERICK HUTH Tongue nor heart Cannot conceive nor name fhee. ' Macbeth Bull-dog Huth, the Toast of the Battalion, was one of the best known cadets. His many esca- pades, both on and off campus, have popularized him as a fugitive from unpleasant circumstances. Danny developed quite a skill as a feature writer for the Bolles Bugle, and other literary achieve- ments held mounting interest for him. Physical culture, however, overshadowed his academic dis- likes. Always quick to outwit teachers, his life was one of never-ending adventure. Perhaps this was one reason why he was a standard fixture at Bull Ring. To hear him talk one would think that he actually enjoyed it. WALTER COUTTS HOLLAND For some must watch, while some must sleep. Hamlet While he was one of the most difficult of people to know, Walter was actually quite a person. He was one of the most conscientious and efficient ofiicers in the Battalion. Although he sometimes let his personal feelings get the best of him, Walter was a friend to all those who knew and worked with him. In Headquarters Company he was known for his ability to get a job done and done right without the customary stalling. Walter worked hard at studies, as his increas- ingly high rating in our class showed. Off-campus Walter's entire personality changed. He became eager, fun-loving, and carefree with the trying duties of a First Sergeant left behind. Walter was quite talented at the flute and played a good game of tennis.
