PERCY I. BERGEN. “Buzz. Southold, L. I. I have ever found thee honest-true.” President of Reed Literary Society, Conwayan Board, ' 07, Baseball Manager, ’09. ‘ ' Buzz has been here three years and has impressed everybody with the fact that he studies hard and plays hard. He has been rather unlucky for he has been sick at least a little while each year and has consequently been thrown behind in his studies; but he plods on cheerfully until he catches up and then makes everybody take notice. Buzz” is studying for law and will probably enter Syracuse next fall. LOUIS WILMER BUBECK. “Ben.” Schuylkill Haven, Pa. He hath indeed better bettered expectation.” Kappa Delta Pi Fraternity. Vice-President Reed Literary Society, Reed Literary Society Debating Team, Treasurer of Senior Class, Business Manager of Logbook. When Bubeck first arrived, people were not especially impressed, but he soon drew atten- tion to himself through his achievements in all lines he undertook. A man of sterling quali- ties himself, he compels respect from everyone he meets. Though he is still undecided, the chances are that he will study law. The class of 1909 feels sure that no matter what field of work he enters, his success is a forgone conclusion. 18

Schuylkill Haven, Pa. LUTHER EDWARD BASHORE. “Judge.” “A rarer spirit never Did steer humanity.” Kappa Delta Pi Fraternity, President of Reed Literary Society, President of Athletic Association, President of Senate, President of Senior Class, Football Team, ’o7- ' o8, Man- ager of Football Team, ' 08. All Hail! Our President! The “Judge” is an all-around man who succeeds in his studies as well as in his athletics. He is quite a favorite of Hutchie’s, and our esteemed Head Mas- ter often asks his advice on matters pertaining to the good of the school The title of Presi- dent fits him so well that we have decided he will some day run this great country of our. Where he will run it to has not been decided. JOHN SKINNER BECKETT. “Chawn.” “A proper man as one shall see.” Millville, N. J. Reed Literary Society, Covenant Society. Chawn who rooms with Dr. Ottey, the Chiropodist, is an example of how self-sacrificing a man can be; for when the “Doctor” has no patients he offers himself as sacrifice and keeps the bunion carpenter in practice. It is a wonder that he can walk and no wonder that he is such a general favorite. He is studying for the ministry and because of his kindly spirit and broad-mindedness we are sure he will succeed. 17

Va. “The world ' s mine oyster.” Reed Literary Society, Basketball Team, ' og. He has the distinction of being the only man in our class with an Aurora Borealis Top- knot.
