AARON S. GUTHKIK 1 Ik- only two hundred pounder on the squad made a big impression on the opponents when he was injected into a battle. Tiny’' played regular tackle on the Plcbe eleven last year and received valuable experience which was evident in his playing in his first varsity encounters. Kndowed with a large amount of strength and energy, Tiny” should prove a big help next season. RALPH W. HARMON In bis first year on the varsity, Harmon earned the much coveted major C.” He was always the first man to be substituted in the back-field, and although exceptionally light, always proved a tower of strength. He is a deadly tackier, and is very clever on the offense, in fact does very well for a married man. There is a place vacant in next year's backfield, and Harmon seems the logical occupant. JOK CHRISTOFF Joe is a little mighty man. lie is fast and furious. Joe is active in all departments of school life. He is on the Tartan staff, plays baseball and belongs to Delta Skull and Druids. Joe bas another year here to show the opponents that speed counts. We are going to hear from Joe next season. Also he will still be heard from, from the other sources. Page 162

BKN J. KRISTOFF Ben fooled Notre Dame by being on the receiving end of one of their passes and running ninety-live yards for a touch-down. He lias been playing wonderful foot-ball all season and will play again next year. Ben has a little way all his own. ask him. He is a member of Druids. MYRON N. (JOODW1N Mike was on the top this year playing a good game. He did splendid work and earned bis recognition. He will be back next year, so we expect many tilings from him. He is president of the Junior class in Arts school, and is a member of Delta Skull and Druids. C. J. MKFORT “Sky” is a good end. He played well in all the games he was in and proved that lie bad the real Carnegie spirit. “Sky has another year to play for bis Alma Mater and we hope he tackles as hard next year as he did this.

W. W. DONAHUE Donahue, the man with the smile that will not come off in the game. His speedy work this year assures him of a job for next year. His fast end runs thrilled and pleased the fans who witnessed his stellar playing. He is as good on the defense as he is on the offense, thus being an asset to the team that can not be overlooked. Donahue is also a basketball pjaycr that is second to none. He works with his teammates and against his opponents. NVc can not do without Donahue and we will not have to next year. A Word From “Buddy” Athletics at Carnegie Tech, just as ar all other Institutions, are the base-work of student activities and form a big part of College life. They help to build character and strong body, also aid in giving the student the line conception of loyalty which marks the college man, develops keen mind, resourcefulness and courage: they form the strongest of ties that hind the student and alumnus to their institution. Ideals encouraged and fostered in athletics form the basis of the integrity and strength which big men so much need to he successful. As Coach Steffen stated at a recent Football Dinner, in choosing men for his squad his first thoughts were courage and mentality. A man having both of these good qualities is bound to succeed scholastically. We pride ourselves this past year in having an exceptionally good record among our varsity players, very few having been disqualified by low points of quality. Our athletic record speaks for itself. The Athletic Council wish to take this opportunity of again thanking the Trustees Administration, Faculty, Alumni and Students for the loyal support given to them the past year. Clarence Overend.
