JOSEPH EUGENE BEAVER 122 Holland St., Somerville, Mass Born April 9, 1901 Somerville High School; Football Manager 4 ; Science Club 4 ; Sodalitv 1, 2. 3, 4; B. C. Club of Somerville 1, 2. 3, 4; Sub Tirri 4; Press Club 4. Behold smiling Joe, the first in the book, the first to be called in class, and the first to hear the dean read his marks. More firsts can be applied to him for he is a first-class Joe. Indeed four years slip away much too swiftly when men have companions like the inimitable and only Joe Beaver, and his sunny disposition and humorous nature has been a pleasure to all his classmates. He has continuously exemplified a go through spirit, an earnest desire to help along in the dark places, and a generosity which others might well imitate. As a football manager Joe is our all-American selection. It takes three hard years to become a manager but Joe at last found himself in the position }] so long coveted. Then he surely was in his glory, giving countless and diBi- cult orders to the awe-stricken Freshmen. After a two thousand-mile tni) to the Gulf of Mexico, Spivis, as he is also known, outmanaged Baylor 2, to 7. On the Q. T. it has been whispered, however, that he gave the team Beeman s in- stead of Wrigley ' s on November 26, which accounted for a certain sad story. Again, we know this self-same gentleman as the slick and wordy reporter of the Traveler. To dash off 500 words on a subject that wasn ' t, is no small task, but Joe found news when it was as scarce as the leaves in Jan- His favorite hobby has been to surprise the en- tire class hy appearing about once a month on time for class. Joe and 9.30 quarreled some time ago and to date have consistently avoided each other. But late arrival has been offset by late departure, for the lab- oratory always held Joe until about 5.00 p. m. If Joe ' s loquacious harangues on the qualities of Tex- as riches and poultry bring results we expect to see him in the sunny and oily Southwest as a chemist. V
