This hiji. jovial, easy-going Virginian came to D.avidson in January, 1910, as ,-1 Freshman, and by the follow- ing September he was a full-fledged Junior. Wonderful, you say? Not at all — it ' s just Aniiv. Determined, per- severing, and patient, he usually sees to the end whatever he undertakes. He never gets angry, and always has a smile and a pleasant word for everyone. If you would see him give his broadest grin, just say Gastonia, and w-atch him. Though A. i)V is not an original ' 13 man, we all like him, and are prfiud to n.anie him as one of our number. Roi!i:iiT Soriii . kko vood Hemp, X. C. Al!., Phi.

Hut he can descend from his dignity enough to play good footliall, and has caused many a lower classman a pang of fear for their laurels during the class series. He does not neglect his books, either ; and if Hemp docs not watch out she will have to entertain a sweet boy-graduate in May, whose head will be larger than the town itself
