Louis Broyle$ Crayton Charlotte. N. C. B.S.; B n One vast substantial smile. Pele has never had any other nick- name; this one suits him. In il are com- bined the ideas of congeniahty, ability and the stuff that men are made of. He is built like a brick building and runs like a war horse, and few are the ends and tackles that Pcle fails to mess up in a football game. As a ladies ' man he does very well, only not around David- son. He prefers to get away where no- body knows that he isn ' t the nephew of John D. Rockefeller. His great hobby IS chemistry. If he goes at it as he goes at everything else, he will be sure to make a success of it.

Walter Alexander Dumas Atlanta, Ga. B.S.; Eu. ; n K A A happ disposition is a prism that deflects the blue ra s. For three years he has been with us, but not of us. Dumas entered with the Class of ' 16. But this energetic youth was not afraid of work, and in two years he was classed a Senior. Dumas is one who never worries, come what may. That would be against his never-failing good nature. Aside from being a man of high ideals, he is now a true classmate, and as congenial and pleasant as it will ever be your good fortxme to meet.

::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. Treasurer and Supervisor Phi Society; Class Track Team; Class Football; Manager Class Track Team; Varsity Track Team; Business Manager Maga- JoHN Edwin Carter Mount Airy, N. C. A.B.; Phi.; Gryphon His valor and his generous mind Prove him superior of his kmd Ed is one of those men who stand out in every class as leaders, and from the first he has been recognized as one of the moving spirits of the class. 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.

James FIalph Dunn Camden, S. C. B.S.; Bachelors Club am Sir Oracle, And Tvhen I ope mj; lips, lei no dog bark! Big Un holds ihe record for being able to spend several weeks of each ses- sion at home, then passing most of his tickets somewhere in the nineties. What the attraction is that draws him away so often we can only surmise, but there are rumors that there are hearts pining for him as long as he slays here. The Chem- ical Lab is his delight and there are few things about chemistry or medicine on which he can not give you the latest in- formation. And in addition to this scientific information he is something of an artist. George Ryland Edwards Rocky Mount, N. C. B.S.; Ben You was turned up Irumps originally), and trumps ou must be ' til you die. Don ' t let George deceive you. He may try to make you think he is a grouch, but that ' s all put on, even when he discusses applied math. He ' s the sun- niest, most warm-hearted fellow you will meet in many a day — a friend in the truest sense. Don ' t bring up the subject of cot- ton, however, or he will have you buying a bale before you realize what you are doing. George will not spend much time loafing in your room. You will have to go to him to see much of him, but if you do you will be repaid, for you will sel- dom meet a more congenial, cordial fel- low.
