This is simply a manifestation of Herb's diverse character. He is never absent from a party, and his candid wit livens any gathering. Herb has demonstrated amazing proficiency in both academic and extracurricular activities. Since he entered The Academy in the sixth grade he has maintained a steady GRADE sac ' N ' A. if dh-riff Yr.

His athletic ability is demonstrated by the fact that he has held a varsity position as a backstroker on the swimming team since his Sophomore year. Outside of the athletic area Herb was chosen to be editor-in-chief of The Caravel for 1960. We feel that the fact that Herb was accepted infor- mally by Yale University at the beginning of his Senior year bears testimony to his outstanding achievements. 23

Creeeeeeeeith!l -This familiar cry, uttered at any hour of the day or night, has become the signal for the entry of one of the most popular boys in the Senior class. Chris' fun-loving nature and his amazing sense of humor have endeared him to everyone, with the possible exception of certain members of the Michi- gan police force. His good nature is perhaps most evi- dent when he accepts with a smile the incriminating yell of Creeeith! which inevitably arises whenever any- thing goes amiss in the Senior homeroom. -...:.,-6.1.

He has played reserve football and tennis and has been a fine backstroker on the varsity swimming team for three years, now ranking among the best in the state. His ability and character gained him the co- captaincy of the swimming team and the presidency of the Varsity A association in his Senior year. With his abilities and his natural good nature, Chris has made himself very popularg for he likes everyone, and everyone likes him.
