S l . 3 .fi Clyde has. He.has practically paid all his own expenses through college. , This, in itself attests to his extreme energy and ambition. 14 In this age of cynicism and pessimism, men of ideals are scarce. But F' Clyde is one of these few. As President of our Y. M. C. A. Chapter, he has i. unceasingly labored in behalf of the World Court and all such enterprises .Xl which aim to elevate mankind. l V As I intimated before, Clyde is in general idealistic. Yet all rules have exceptions, and this one has. He actually believes that, if a young lady of Y average attractions tells a fellow that he is the first fellow that ever kissed Tix her, then she has necessarily suffered a lapse of memory. Clyde comes from way down east, from Maine, b'gosh . But this is not ii allg he freely admits his guilt, and even. seems proud of it. ,Sli Lately he has been nursemaid to a young canine. He has taken wonderful care of the little puppy. The gentleness and tenderness with which he min- 'KV isters to it, cause sighs of longing from the more deadly sex . Yet he is Y' apparently immune to any VVorcestcr cupids . There are reports that he is 'li not quite so immune in Maine. xl , . . . . F ' He expects to return to Clark next fall to continue his work in Physics ay in the graduate department. Ambition is one of the chief factors in success. Xl. VVith this in mind, we feel that Clyde's future is secure. l!ClJfyd9!J, l sd' .NY .ity lr '- ' ' ' ' ' ' of e ia' ,F F' 4 17' '-77 :YAY T7 .YV .Y7 .77 ,fl :7l:f ff eff' QQ. -L' LL' '

XNHEN Walter George Bassett decided to continue his education and decided to patronize the naborhood schooln, Clark gained--perhaps Amherst lost. Bub came to educate himself for what was to come later. He did. Not one among us cares more for life and worries less about it than Friend Bassett. That infectious smile, those 'ticklish toes, the ever willing hand of help and the convivial love of humor lof which he has no small partl is in a small way a hasty description of the handsome male above. Bub has friends and his ability to keep them is a sign of his pleasing personality. Here is a friend of the up-towni' boys and a supporter of those intellectuals whose critical dimensions are measured by their long readings. A cosmopolitan, dear reader, of the first water. Bub's baseball propensities gained him a place on the Varsity baseball team in l925. The ability of Bub as a third baseman and right-fielder can in no way compare to his quips and cranks as a pitcher. Walter is undecided as to his future occupation. A man of such wide diversities would be perturbed. He is positive that he shall not teach school. One teacher in the family is enough , says Bub', and thus we are able to include Peg in this write-up. Bub , go out and make your mark! VVe are confident that you will not find this world a cruel one. We may not know you as Walter or even as Bassett, but as Bub -ever bubbling over the brim with your joviality unlimited-we can never forget you. ulgubys WALTER GEoRGE BASSETT . l.40 l .
