Joseph Ellwanger: Selma, Alabama. From the first day that this Southerner joined us in Quarta, there has been little doubt about his scholastic standing. Confident and earn- est of purpose, Joe set out immediately to win laurels in all his classes. But it is undoubted!y his extraordinary sense of duty which has taken him this far and which, we feel confident, will win him greater honors in the future. Editor, Maroon and White. President, Mission Society, SZ MUS Class Secretary-Treasurer, I, Vice-President, II. Choir: Vice-Presi- dent, I, President, II. C. S. A. Executive Board, II. Allen Gartner: Inkster, Michigan. A recent and luminous addition to the class, Aly left very little chance of his going unnoticed for long. A definite extrovert by nature, with a dry sense of humor all his own, Al occasionally comes up with some witticism. He and Professor Hansen are jointly responsible for the invention of the Concordia horse laugh. Choir, I II. Chapel of the Air Choir, I II. Mack Goeglein: Fort Wayne, Indiana.

To Ralph, the most desirable part of the United States ends once you are beyond the boundaries of Michigan. An inhabitant of the automobile town, Carey has one weakness, the car.
