Always ready for a good time is Billy and forever giving one. When Billy came to us Call the way from Vermont5, we immediately sat up and took noticeg we had to, for soon Billy's cheerful smiles, chuckles, and laughter made things hum. Bill is not only a fun-maker, but a worker. as her good marks in French show. Laboratory work has its charms for Billy, too. It's nice to be popular, as Billy knows, and when she is smoothing some patient's brow Cyes, Billy wants to be a nurse5 we know that Nurse Billy will be in great demand. Go to it, Billy, we know success awaits you wherever you roam. Emrzusox KAY HALL Em Percy Neat and trimly of dress, of 'nzannvrs gentle, of affertions mild. Boys' Athletic Association C15 C25 C35 C45 3 Thyrsus Club C15 C25 C35 C45- Em is one of the quietest fellows in the class. Quiet? A pin dropping is like an explosion by comparison. But you know, An empty cart rattles loudest. However, Em's silence is probably accounted for by the fact that he is studying. The glimpses we have of him are with a book-or with a girl. Ah! Here's the plot! Yes, when lim is not busy he is with a lady fair. VVe thought his hopes and life were blasted when his class graduated in February, and with it a certain fair damsel. Em has recovered since, and is now on another conquest. XVho's the one in Room 3, lim? As a last bit of advice to our busy classmate we propose as a stimulant the great words of a great man-- Faint heart ne'er won fair lady.

If we see Hopie coming through the corridor minus Dede, we all join the search, for we know she will never be happy till she has her arm around Dede once again. Her good-natured laugh has helped win her many friends, but don't think it's only her laugh that is so amiable. She's that through and through, sincere and a real pal. Hope has studied well and faithfully in her Commercial Course. but what's the use of playing on a typewriter, when you want to nurse sick folks? She wants to turn her back on the business world and be a nurse. May good fortune follow her in whatever Career she chooses, for we are sure she deserves it.

To the class of '22, at least, this name has become the synonym for perfect recitations. To whom do all 4A Latin scholars turn for help? On whom does Mr. Bosworth rely for a correct translation? Any sorely perplexed student of French, Latin, or Algebra knows the answer. It is Freedman of the all A reports. joe's record makes ours look like beans. joe is a burner of midnight oil, for all his success is due to study Cand concentration 5. He is the one and only Senior Latin shark, and he plans to go to Brown, where his love of Latin and powers of debate will make him a full-fledged lawyer. Far be it from us to doubt his ability, Don't forget your class- mates, Joe, when your stern face frowns down from the Supreme Court bench. J.

Have you ever seen a blonde who hasn't push and can't suc- ceed? W'ell, I guess not! Here he is Cfulla pep5-true to the rule! Al has shown his mettle on the gridiron and has won a football C for two seasons. As a debater on the team of 1921 he ranks high and as a speeeher in the hall he shines! Then, too, he has us all on edge. for we feel sure that Hamlet will be his next step to fame, as he has proven his worth as an actor of no mean abilities in the Thyrsus Club plays. Did you see Al in the minstrel show as a gentleman of color with the lady ? He has more tha11 once shown his real school spirit as a cheer leader at games and other school functions. Besides, the C ran' stonian owes much of its success to him, its busy business man- ager. You sure can deliver the goods, Al. HOPE GILBERT I-Iopie lVhere did you get your eye.: of blue?

Now see who you've bumped into! Dear. dare-devilish. and demure Hope! No. you've not even time to say 'Scuse me! She's gone! That's the way with Hopie3 she's as quick as greased lightning. bright as her sunny hair, and the life of the Senior Class. It is Hope who usually has the courage to stand and refute or add to the arguments of some enterprising boy in English. It is Hope who can End the hidden meanings in Milton. and more than once her bright ideas have helped us out. Peggy O'Neil has nothing on Hope, whosedanc- ing blue eyes are most distracting at times, as Don will testify. Sweet personality, full of rascality, pep and vivacity describes Hope rather lamely. Hope is a born actress as well as an artist. Brown will be lucky when Hope enters, as it will possess one of the sweetest, most mischievous, and best loved girls of the 1922 c ass.

Ethel is just brim full of laughter. Almost everything amuses her. No one knows when she will go into peals of joy. causing everyone around her to become merry and to forget the cares of school life. Of course. you can see why everyone likes her so well. Dougie's favorite subject is Math. and she shows her interest in it by her good marks, VVould that some of the other girls had her mathematical mind when struggling through Algebra and Geometry. Be thankful, Ethel! Doug's always ready for a good time, probably like the Douglas of the movies. But Ethel was not destined for screen life. Her plan is to go to college and there she will probably specialize in Math., although she hasn't said so. If good wishes from ns will help you to succeed, Ethel, you'll do so!
