Doc is famed for many things, chief among which is his ability as an athlete, as a Class leader, as an editor, and student. Among all our associations in college we have not sounded material that has come nearer giving the true ring, and nearer showing the true blue, than has this piece. A South Carolina news- paper once said Clemson will some day be famous as that school attended by Doc EzELL. So, friends, we leave him to you until the next writing.

McColl claims the subject of this sketch. Fletch, like many others, is noted for his expenditure of energy in telling how hard the Electrical course is. In his Senior year.

His many friends predict that he will some day become chief engineer of •he estinghouse Electric Company. Seize common occasions, and mal(e them great ' f»- ) ARTHUR PELZER GANDY DOVESVILLE. S. C.
