A benevolent laugh, which has become the boy's trade-mark, announces the ar- rival of George Fillinger. A conscientious worker, George applies himself to everything he does with great enthusiasm. Working on the Caravel is his contribution to the school publications. A butterfly man on the swimming team is his position in the winter. His regardful nature makes him a candidate for most voluntary community service. In this re- gard, George is an usher at the Columbus Symphony Orchestra concerts. If a dominant trait must be singled out, the senior class will always remember George for his broad smile and ever-present chuckle. I7

Roger is, perhaps, the least outspoken individual in the class. Beneath this ruse of shyness lurks an ex- tremely interested scientific mind. Roger's first love is astronomy. He is an active member of a local as- tronomy club, and owns his own telescope. Because he is always looking for newer and larger fields, he is a frequent visitor to the O.S.U. observatory, and has become thoroughly familiar with the University telescope. He is also a member of the Columbus Moonwatch team. Roger is not content to merely watch the stars. One of his projects includes photo- graphing them through his telescope. Roger's interests, however, are not all purely scien- tific. He is a skiing enthusiast and makes several yearly trips to Michigan in pursuit of his hobby. He is also a conscientious student who pursues academic curriculum with the same vigor with which he pur- sues passing satellites. I6 RUQQEHR A, l1'Ufl-,lH

A deafening cry of Gallagherrrr rises from the locker room. This is not a cry of war or of victory from one of the varsity teams. It is the call for the undisputed ruler of the school's athletic facilities. Mike became a manager in his freshman- year, and he has won letters for managing in all sports ex- cept tennis. His work in the locker room has also given him experience in quelling minor rebellions and breaking up vast towel empires. Mike is cap- able of sticking with any job, a quality which has made him invaluable in carrying out class projects. His need for activity carries over into the scholastic part of life. He has maintained high averages in all his studies, especially math and science. He may often be observed in the library explaining difficult problems to groups of less gifted students. Mike will attend Miami University in the fall where he will be taking pre-med courses. Because of his ability to stick with a decision, Columbus will soon have a new Dr. Gallagher.
