At times he is deadly serious, either retreating into quiet day dreams or arousing himself to expound for our ediiication, theories and philosophies more puz- zling than Eins-tein'sg -or then again you may find him as we like him best of all-smiling, jovial, 3 witty satirist., a jolly good fellow. Perhaps he is trying to lead inactual life all the various roles he has iilled on the stage. For he has tendencies towards the gentle art of acting, and .permit us to say that l1e is Htheref' Besides being also a member of the Bapst. and Campion, Felix fills the post of Dramatic Editor on the Botolphian Staff. Despite l1is somewhat cynical air at times, Felix is popular 5 we at least desire his company, be he serious or smil- ing, for above all we are sure he is a true and ready comrade. .

Austin. He is a boy that has made school history 5 his name Will be remembered and honored for time immeniorial at B. C. H. Our rabid scholars will point with pride to his oratorical prowess, his debating abilities, his theatrical art, his mighty pen-oh, Why go on? Austin led in everything. Then those among us who prize studies less highly fit there be any so base!5 will recall the day when the undaunted J . Austin single-handed captured an armed desperado, they will re- member too his gluttonous appetite and fiendish pursual ot' innocent apples. He has be-en Vice-President ofso many societies that every bank in the city is bidding for his services. Austie was in every- thing-from prize debater in t.he Bapst to organist in the Sodality. And then these football stars grumble about their Uworld' for the school! Watch J. Austin, if ever a man is destined to succeed it is he. A brilliant scholar, a man of purpose, a loyal friend and 'com- rade, he should proceed far in whatever channel of life he follows.

TI-IE FORBIAN Arthur B. Dolan 49 Wallingford Roar! Brighton sodaiity qi, 2, 3, 41 K. B. S. Q3, 41 f'Judge, Goose, t'Sunny', isBa1a77 J ohnso11 had his Boswell and so too i'Chuck'l Darling, the blond meteor from the Heights, has his Dolan. Meet the Judge--staunch upholder of anything illld everything related at all to Boston College. The Judge, though never appearing ill public, has repeatedly triumphed over our inost famous debaters when the honor of B. C. was at stake. Attaboy, Judge. He has always been an honor 1112111 in the school, beginning with his earliest days in old 1F. One thing we have learned to inarvel at is how the Judge can translate Latin and 'Greek and still hold the English language at his command. Besides being a good scholar, the Judge is a pretty outfielder. And with the addition of some weight to better l1is l1itti11g, should devel-op into a real star. A very honest inan, stained perhaps by a, touch of cynicisni, but never- theless a11 honored and revered nieinber of our famous class. .-..,.
