Marion Alpheus Boggs. Jr. Liberty, S. C. A.B.; Eu. He Tvas a venay parfil, genlil knight. If you are seeking one who combines in himself the qualities of sport, good student and all around good fellow, be- hold him here. Boggs is the man. Not only does Boggs like the ladies, but the ladies like Boggs as well. And, to tell the truth, we don ' t blame them, for he is good looking, warm-hearted and a gen- tleman through and through. With his generous nature and sunny smile, he has made friends of us all and we know that he will make the same success as a min- ister that he has as a student. Best wishes, Boggs, thou breaker of feminine hearts! Class Baseball (3) ; Captain Junior Baseball Team; Class Football; Punc- tuality Roll (3) ; Assistant in Physics (2). Madison Griffin Boswell Penfield, Ga. B.S.; Eu In composure of his face Lived a fair but manly grace. You may be at Davidson some time before you get to know Yank, for he is not given to blowing his own horn; but when you do know him you will find him a friend as true as steel. He will not say very much and he does not seem to be greatly interested in college honors, but if you really want a piece of work well done, Yank is your man. He is one of those fellows whom you can look back on after leaving college, and say, It was worth going to Davidson just to know such a fellow as he is.

::m John Anderson Carriker Harrisburg, N. C. A.B.; Phi. Still rvaters run deep. Johnny is the man who put the run in runt. You would not think to see him walking silently down the street, muf- fled in his great red sweater, that he was a star track man, but you get him out on the cinder path, and you will see his feet twinkle like the balance wheel in a watch, while he will hit the tape first more than once. Neither Johnny ' s studies nor conversation with the ladies have given him much brain fever, but he has taken a good stand, and what is far more, has won a circle of friends who have found a generous and true soul in his little bulldog figure.

Having a strong personality, he attracts all with whom he comes in contact. Ed is an all around man, an orator of repute and an athlete by natural ability and has as- tounded many fair dames by his graceful performances on the horizontal and paral- lel bars, for he is seen at his best in a pair of red lights in a gym exhibit. You may look for big things from this child of Mount Airy. Secretary Phi.
