LQRENIO BURROWS Although quiet and unassuming, Lorry has been energetic participator in many activities during his three-year sojourn on the Cranbrook campus. As a member of the Ergas- terion stage crew, this quiet Marquisman proved himself capable and eiiicient, and devoted many extra hours to making sets and scenery. His ability to work hard and steadily has gained him two manageris letters and a place among the members of the varsity Cn club. Lorry has devoted enough time to his hobby, stamp collecting, to build up an unusually interesting collection. His annual jaunt from Saginaw will end up next year at the University of Michigan College of Architecture and Design. Football Manager 6, CU Club 6, Common Room Committee 6, Ergasterion 6.

With his Southern drawl and the Stars and Bars hanging in his room, Al has made his stand against the North crystal clear. Although he has held the position of co-captain on the football team, and gained letters in basketball and track, he has also spread his talents over several other fields. He carried the responsibilities of his pre- fectship in Stevens this year with unusual dispatch and thoroughness, and was one of the hardest-working members of the Church Cabinet. The Dixiecrat's plans for next year include a real Southern college.

Bunk has played annually for the operetta's singers, and this past year held down a position on the senior gift committee.
