John McKee Jamison Charlotte, N. C. A.B. II.; K A. Sireet Babe, in thy face soft desires I can trace. ■Johnnie came lo us in the fall of 1918 lo brave with us the dangers and hardships of the S. A. T. C. after Uvo years spent at Carolina. His babyish expression and goad nature quickly won a place for him and we have been glad of Carolina ' s loss. .Among his important positions on the campus he possesses a place on the list of Senior Monitors and thus becomes a privileged character in regards to chapel attendance. Though Johnnie rarely visits us during a week-end, from all reports his grades never suffer from these frequent trips to Charlotte. Robert Todd Lapslev Liston Jacksonville. .Ala. .A.B. I.: Eu. Words. aorJs, words. Big Liz. more than any one else here, has the gift of gab. His charm is great. He can persuade the grass to put on a greater and deeper greenness. here he talks even the trees will leave. X hen he sings even the circus calliope is silent from a sense of its own madequence. Sleepy is a college institution. He it is who leads the night maurauders in all dumping expeditions. In the van of every snow fight and water battle is heard the voice of this young Lochinvar. Like this same young Lochinvar. Liz came from the West, wearing and needing no sword save this same vocal fluency. Dd Englisli. Page tjventyf ' seven

Charles Jarman Hollandsworth Calloway, Va. A.B. I.; Eu. Smoolh rtins the ma cr where ihe hrooli is Jeep. Scrubs enlered this inslilulion of learning five years ago with ihe flower of Southern manhood representing the Class of ' 19. But Mars intervened in his behalf and the fortunes of war made it possible for him to graduate with a sure ' nuff class. His work on class has been as satisfactory as was his fighting with the Gyrenes m France. He is a man who is not afraid to express his opinion, and as a rule that opinion is a good one. He is going into the biggest work in the world and will be a big man in a big field. CoYTE Hunter Charlotte, N. C. A.B. I.; Phi. holijup or give tiealh. ' Coyte IS one of our recent acquisitions. While the rest of us were Freshies he was a Soph, and to him is due much of the credit for our upbringing. Then year before last he look a vacation, went over and broke the Hindenburg line, and still got back in lime to finish with us. Whether on the cinder-path or the platform, his unconquerable determination is ever in evidence and we expect great things of him as he enters the ministry.

I C ilOIIOllOilOllOIIOIlOIIOIIOllOllOllQllOllGniOUO Lacy Little McAlister Greensboro, N. C. B.: K 2; O A K. am monarch of all I survey. Ikey came to us under John ' s supervision and has followed closely in his brother ' s footsteps. Although possessing Yiddish instincts. Lacy has a ready hand-shake for every one on the campus. Versatile, he does whatever his hands find to do; enthusiastic, he always succeeds; tactful and cordial, he wins many friends; magnetic in personality, he keeps them. His sense of humor is of the keenest and nothing ridiculous ever escapes his eye. But why write further? Only the half has ever been told and our delineative powers are almost exhausted. He is one of our best and we predict for him a very bright future. President Freshman Class; Scrub Football ' IT; Varsity Football ' IS, ' 19; Scrub Basket- ball ' 17.

' Introducing our Doug is an easy job. as he is known by every one. He sings second bass in the Davidson quartet and plays first base on our baseball learn. He is exceedinnly nice to look upon, having brown eyes that twinkle and ebony locks divided exactly in the middle by, as we believe, a compass and mathematical instruments. He wears cuffless trousers and in addition may have carried a wrist watch in the days of their vogue. But in spile of this sartorial perfection, he is a man ' s man and will be. if he wishes, a success.
