JOHN SANDERS MgDONALD At any riding meet or fox hunt in or around Bloomfield Hills, vou're sure to find John carrying off honors. Riding is this day boyis first lbve, and his love of fast action has stood him in good stead on the cross-country, basketball, and track squads. For the last four years, Mac has been a valuable part of the clarinet section of both the band and orchestra, and has also been one of the select few in the special instrumental group. Always gregarious, the recl-head is not averse to an old-time bull session now and then, and has a good sense of humor which has helped him immensely with his conquests on both this and the other side of the lake.

A member of our class since the first form, this day boy senior prefect has been activity-minded ever since his advent on the Cranbrook scene. While keeping his marks above average, he has tackled most of the activities offered and come out on top.

Mike has been a constant attendant at every Cranbrook dance or social gathering since most of us can remember. His keen sense of humor, his varied interests and abilities, and his friendliness should stand him in good stead.

Beside his fabled dislike for shoes, the Hawaiian seems to dislike his wrestling opponents. He is generally regarded as a sure point-winner for the Crane matmen. Pluck- er,s bulging biceps also served him well on the gridiron, where he was a mainstay at the end position. His nickname, Plucker, derived from his passion for the ukelele, was tacked onto him this year by his many friends. Our husky Hawaiian has left his mark on Cranbrook, just as he has on opposing athletic teams.
