'4Now, Mr. Rosser wearily sighs, Hare there any questions on this test? Mr. Rosser always cringes when he makes such a statement, because he knows that a flood of hands will be the answer to his question. One of those hands is sure to be that of Don Epler. If Don doesn't know the answer to a question, he will ask someone until he finds the answer. He is certainly one of the most thorough students in the class. This same drive has made Don an All-County honorable- mention fullback on the football team and a fine shot- putter on the track team. Don has lettered in football Donald F. Epler Football 1, 2, 3, Ll Track 3, 11 Golf 1, 2, 3, 11 Varsity A 1, 2, 3, 4- fPresidentl Studyhall Proctor IL Clee Club -l Caravel 4 for three years. Up until last year, he was the golf team's best player but then decided to be on a winning team: the track team. The enthusiasm with which Don does almost everything has made him liked by both his classmates and teachers. His election to the presi- dency of Varsity NA, an office which he has fulfilled conscientiously, indicates this popularity. Without doubt, Donls inquiring nature, steady drive, and en- gaging personality will greatly benefit him in the future.

Lance E. Eisenberg Golf 1, 2, 3, 4+ fCaptainJ Track 3, 4' Basketball 3 Academy Life 2, 3, 4 fAssociate Editorl Caravel 4 'CHOW did you ever get a name like Lance, Lance?', Mr. Nicholson has often asked. 46Well, it,s a long story, but . . .H HW'ell save it thenf' Mr. Nicholson has often replied. These were rare, unfortunate occa- sions When We didn't get to hear Lance out completely. Usually if we miss something he's said, We can pick it up in The Academy Life. He has been literally essential to the paper as Senior Editor. His humor column, Lance Rants, has consistently been the best part of the Life for two years. However, he has written news and sports articles, editorials, and letters to the editor for each issue this year. His letters to the editor have often revealed certain gaps in the school,s structure, and even put doors on two of them. Lance's intellectual curiosity has long made him one of the most independent members of the class. His hectic social life has given him many interesting anecdotes which have amused his classmates. Captain of the golf team, he has been for four years one of the few bright spots on that team. Lance is certainly one of the most versatile and likeable boys in our class.

Who in the Senior Class would send a week-old hamburger to a hungry friend in Canada? Only Al Farrar, the undisputed holder of the Class Humorist title. With this humor comes a penetration and poise that few in the class can equal. An independent in- dividual, he clearly prefers the life of the woodsmang he has spent several summers canoe-tripping through Canada, and he hunts and fishes with an assortment of guns and rods that any outdoorsman would envy. He has his own trio for which he plays guitar and ban'o singing im robable sonffs. At the beginning of J? CD p C last summer, Al took up photography and, in the re- markably short time of a few months, became one of the best camera and darkroom men the Caravel has had. Al is responsible for many of the pictures in the Caravel, and he is chiefly responsible for the schoolls new darkroom, for which he has done nearly profes- sional plumbing and carpentry. Al, ineligible because he transferred from Arlington in the junior year, was an unofficial assistant coach for the swimming team. This humorist and thrower of memorable stag parties is one of the most able and practical, as well as one of the most entertaining of the Seniors.
