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.

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

Bishop u a tower of strength in religious circles and the success of the 1920 Convention of Volunteers is largely due to his untiring efforts. To keep in touch with his religious work, P. C. spends his spare time correcting Fresh. Bible papers. During the rest of his idle moments he is at work on a volume entitled Davidson ' s Part in the Great War.

This son of toil laid down the plow and said he was going to be a doctor because he felt sorry for sick people, but since being a victim of the profiteering game here at the Scollege, he says il s merely a monetary proposition from now on. He would look more familiar behind Jew Elliott ' s bar chewing a big cigar and assisting Jew in dispensing the old proverbial Taurus. Doc is one of those men with a big heart, congenial and easy going, who is the same every time you see him.
