CHARLES CERBA, CIVIL Stadia Club. Charlie spends most of his time over a drawing board, but is always on hand when a Case dance comes along. He entered Case with the handi- cap of a South High diploma, but nevertheless has managed to stick. His perseverance and ability to work should bring him fruitful reward. NORMAN BRUCE CLARKE, KE, CIVIL Football C25 C35 145g Basketball C25 C35 C45g President, Junior Classg Case Club Board of Managers Q25 Q35 i455 President C455 Senate C35 3 Alpha Phi g Skull and Bones, Owl and Key, Stadia Club. Without Norm there would be a vacant place in most school activities. He has always been at home on the football field and the basketball floor, and not less in the Senate and on the Board of Managers. He and the faculty have engaged in many a hard-fought battle, but strange to say, Nim has always come out on top. In spite of his activities, he has found time to be a friend to every one in his class. N im has joined the Aviation Corps and will without doubt prove a valuable man in the service of Uncle Sam. LEO HIRAM CORNING, CIVIL Stadia Club. During his stay at Case Leo has become noted for never taking a iinal. Hesets a terrible pace for the rest of the class in the drawing room, as well as on the dance floor. On the latter place he is a constant per- former, and without him a Case Club dance would not be complete. HOWARD HOBART DAVIS, CIVIL Stadia Club. I His rooting will surely be missed at the home games next year. When he yelled Punch his face and knock him cold our teams always came back with renewed vigor. Hank has been the mainstay of the Civil football team for the last three years. Despite the long and difficult Civil football schedule he has kept his schoolwork well ahead of that of the rest of the class. 25

Q 3 F' E 0 O G 11 CL '4 OW that the curtain is being rung down on the last appearance of the class of' 1918, it is with a feeling of regret that one views the closing scene. No other graduating class has had to deal with the conditions that '18 has experienced and we have not remained un- scathed. Our ranks have been greatly thinned by those who left to fight for Uncle Sam, a total of 45 men going into the service. Of those of us who remain, all who were of draft age have enlisted in the Reserve Engi- neers' Corps, so that practically the whole class will be in the service of the United States after Commencement. The men of nineteen-eighteen have always shown the aggressive spirit that characterized the pushball contests of our first two years. The first year, the pushball contest was won by us but the second year, against great odds, we lost out by one foot. Eighteen has always worked hard for her honors in athletics. This is shown by the fact that on the two foot- ball teams previous to this year, the majority of the men were from eight- -een. In baseball, basketball and track, eighteen has always had a large number of men who spent much time and energy and have been prominent participants. Eighteen has also had a large representation in the musi- cal clubs, in the two musical comedies, The Cheese King and Sahara- laska, and in the other student activities. The whole class has shown itself to be a class of leaders as can be shown in the Case battalion. Practically all the members of the class hold some kind of a commissioned or non-commissioned office. Eighteen entered Case in the fall of 1914, a month after the Great War began. It -has been, therefore, a war class, with the fighting spirit increasing as the war has spread and has finally drawn in the United States. Now the spirit of patriotism is at its height and appeals to every man of us. We are sure that this spirit will stay with the men of this class after they have been graduated, since leaders are in greater demand now than at any other time in the history of the country. 24

ELZA LORIN GRAUMLICH, CIVIL Stadia Club. Graum is one of those fellows who works continually, but still finds time to say a pleasant word to his associates. The old school teacher has done his best to reform his fellow studentsg but they, have proved incor- rigible. ORVILLE C. KEENAN, KE, CIVIL Basketball Manager Q43 5 Athletic Association, Stadia Club. In spite of his Irish descent his business instincts are strongly devel- oped, as proved by his administration of the commissary at Silver Lake, Jap's voice was usually foremost in any drawing-room discussion, and even when all the rest were against him he could always put up an argu- ment. If he can preserve his antipathy for the fair sex, a successful career awaits himg but even now he has a hard time dodging them. His sunny Irish disposition has made him a host of friends. GUY HAMILTON MAI-ION, CIVIL Band C11 Q25 C31 141, Stadia Club. Rev enjoys the unique distinction of being the married man of the Civils. Even with this handicap he has usually managed to pass. His stern military voice was long the terror of the freshmen of Company D. When the weather grew colder, he transferred his energies to the band, in which organization his horn has always been loudest. Mahony's cheer- fulness and good temper have made him a favorite. JAMES AMES MEACHAM, TBH, CIVIL Stadia Club. Sturdily built, the most conspicuous part of this young officer is his leggings. However, be not deceived by relative size, for he is a hard worker and goes through his studies with ease. He is always around when the Civil bunch does anything. Meach has one defect-he never could under- stand post-holes. 26
