NVhy, you must be mistaken, for everyone knows Dinty, the only real humorist that Cranston ever had, His happy-go-lucky attitude has earned him a host of friends. Dan is always seen shambling about the corridors or rushing to his seat as the bell rings. Dan's prowess with the feebler sex is well known, for the girls just love to :lance with him. Dame Rumor says that Dinty has turned author and is now completing his first writing, entitled Ulilappers I Have Known. This work is ill ten volumes and will soon be on the market. Although Dinty has never dazzled anyone with his marks, he is completing his course without difficulty and expects to go to Holy Cross in the fall. We expect great things of you, Dinty. so go to it.

One look will tell you that she's full of fun and good natured. All our four years here we have found it a pleasure to talk with Biddy, especially when we're feeling blue. She knows how to cheer you up and make you happy. And what fair complexion and rosy cheeks! She's the envy of all the girls. Biddy has taken no active part in social activitiesg yet when- ever there is any merry making or even mischief on, we hear her merry laugh in the midst of it. Biddy is very much interested in kindergarten work, and since she graduated in February has been studying at the Rhode Island College of Education. We know she'll be successful as a teacher, for the children will love to study under her. AI!Bll'1 Ii Mlzizsox DYER Abbie Happi1n'ss c'0n.n'.vts in nt'lir'iIy. Abbie is the happy-go-lucky person whose giggle is usually heard in the corridor before school beginsg in fact, Abbie and her giggle are never separated for long at a time. Once Abbie visited Washington, D. C., and brought back volumes of infor- mation about that city. She doesn't believe in worrying over such little things as tests or studies. Wherever she goes we know that such a sunny disposition will win many friends in the future, as it has done in C. H. S.

Gentle reader, the fellow whose countenance you sec before you is Bernie! Bernie is quite an athlete. Football, track and baseball teams all claim him. His prowess as a pitcher has become well known, for in his junior year he pitched a 9-0 game against Classical, in which the visitors got only one hit. During the same year he pitched a 12-O victory for Cranston against another of her rivals. Bernie is also a singer and was a member of the quartette which sang Allouette in the hall one morning. Bernie is a hard worker Elllll we are sure that every- thing he attempts will prove successful, and so we have no fear that he will not be able to cope with the problems which he will meet with at the State College. ,losi-:PH Errol-:Nr: AL1-Hows:-1 DnI3i.o1s DeBl0is High erected thoughts seated in the licurt of m1o'tv.vy, Boys3Atl11letic Association C23 C33 C433 Thyrsus Club C23 C 3 C 3- Besides having a variety of good names, DeBlois has a variety of good qualities, which, indeed, can hardly he enu- merated in this writing. Our friend, first of all, is usually quietg but when he begins to speak, we sit up and take notice. Besides being proficient in English, DeBlois also amazes us now and again by his fluency in speaking French and his easy manner in translating, not only prepared lessons, but sight work as well. DeBlois has not decided upon his career or place of business, but we all wish him the best of luck. CHARLES Dooom Charlie Haste makes wu.vt1'.

The dust is thinningsuow.--why it's a motorcycle! Who rides a motorcycle to school? Yes, it's our old friend, Charlie Dodge. Hail the speed king and his steed! The noble steed has thrown him but once. and on that memorable occasion Charlie only parted with a few molars. There is a rumor that a young lady down liden Park way wears a diamond on the third finger of the left hand. Can you, by any chance, enlighten us on this subject, Charlie? We wish you success, Charles, but our advice is not to try to climb trees when per- ambulating with your Harley-Davidson.

Seldom, if ever, does she frown, and then only when some problem in geometry just won't work out right. But when lilinore reads her themes or debates, the whole class becomes as one attentive listener, and that is why we believe that Elinore's desire to become an authoress will soon be realized. Her sweet and sunny disposition attracts everyone's attention, making her one of the most popular girls in the class. At present she is attending the Rhode Island College of Education and we know that her attractive personality will win many friends for her there.

Time for Skeets to come rushing in, one eye on the clock and the other on the aisle. Oh, goodness no, she isn't cross-eyed, but she almost makes us that way. Why doesn't she get here sooner? Caroline is one of our best workers. lf we want something done, we go to Caroline. just look at all those ads she got! But who could resist her, when she persuades and smiles-better look out for your pocketbook. VVe all like Skeets and we know they will all like her at Brown. From there, she plans to go to Shanghai Baptist College in China to do some social service work. She's got fine work before her.

The nightingale has a rival in Marjorie, for her voice is the delight of everyone. VVhat Minstrel Show would be a eoin- plete success which did not have Margie to sing for it? Her sweet and winning ways have won her a host of friends and admirers. Rosie, to all outward appearances, is a quiet girl who always minds her own aFFairs Cwhich can't be said of the rest of ns3. To her most intimate friends, Marjorie is as jolly as one eould wish: when the occasion calls for fun and merry-making she is right there. She is the kind of girl who does the right thing at the right time. too. The Girls' Athletic Association. in particular, is proud z-nd fortunate to have a President like Mar- gie. whose enthusiasm and eagerness has spurred us on when we had almost given up one project or another. Marjorie expects to be a Brown girl and she may be sure that the class of '22 is proud of her and wishes her the best of luck.
