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' '

ON a certain fair day in September in the year of grace, Nineteen Hundred and Nineteen an old sailor tired of the foam and swish of ocean waves strode manfully upon our campus fair. Right away in cold print we give his origin-Sandwich! He came to Clark from there in the days when that place was still a territory, and since its admission into the Union, has often visited the hamlet. We are told that these were missionary trips to the natives. 'Tis welll One is faced with two rather obvious alternatives, a resume of his accom- plishments in the interest of the institution, or an attempt at character analy- sis. The former is covered tolerably well in the material above, the latter is bound to be abortive and only the favor of fortune could assure Bill of justice. A frosh in a navy pea-coat, trying to shake his three-year-old sea-legs, commended by the Secretary of the Navy and voyaging across the Atlantic thirty times and the English Channel twice. Bill will attempt to swim the channel this summer. A gifted singer with a sincere appreciation for music, an athlete and a rooter, a man of artistic hobbies and avocations, a president of the student body whose fearlessness and initiative will be long remembered. A friend to many who knew him. A product and an example. A line cosmopolitan. We say good bye to you Bill but we mean au revoir. 44BiUyn l 43 l
