5. Charles Straus, Jr. Ralph Larry Todd Charlie Straus is the original hacker of all time. He has elevated the life style of the hacker from the mundane to the sublime. For one as practiced as Charlie, the art of being a hacker has transcended the field of sports to permeate every aspect of his being. There's no denying it- Charlie is a hacker in every sense of the word. Because of this, few are aware of Charlie's ability to play guitar or even read a book. Rest assured that he does both ithough not with equal facilityl. Lite is like taking a bath on Friday, knowing that on Saturday you will be covered by dirt, Michael Miller, Age 4 Genius, by one definition, is the infinite capacity for taking pains. Larry Todd is a genius. Larry's indefatigable addition to hard work has caused many of us to question his assertion that he is indeed from the planet earth. Wandering on his rounds with head cocked pensively to one side and hair unkempt, he seems oblivious to the cares which beset the less motivated student. Behind this deceptively shabby facade lurks the mind of a devoted scholar of the fine arts-poetry, music, literature, and classical languages. 22

Michael David Wood Eric Blagg Yeiser, Jr. According to Mike Wood, all the girls at Hillsdale are just dying to hop in one of his sports cars and go hold hands. We know better but does he? As Country Day's reigning king of table tennis, Mike also excels at diving and trampoline. An actor of dubious talent, he has nevertheless managed to secure roles in productions at-where else- Hillsdale. Peer into Mike's chest of entertainment for men and you will learn that a sound body does denote a sound mind. If at first you dont succeed, try, try again, until you are caught. Pity the stranger who is not acquainted with Eric Yeiser's own brand of humor, for we were once strangers ourselves. Spend a day with him and you will emerge puzzled. When it comes to the MCS, Eric is a subdued fanatic who, in his last year at Country Day, has already begun to ki ck out the iams- Eric is our foremost horror movie expert and stickball player. With Eric goes the greatest wit to grace this school in years.. Tell it to the Marines. 24
