Sam is one of the most popular men of his class, and one who will never be forgot- ten, once a person has met him. for he num- bers his friends by his acquaintances. Kind, sincere, and commanding, he holds the respect of the whole student body, as is shown by his having been elected President of that body. He is a four-year football letter man, and his great playing in the line will long be re- membered in the annals of the college. A versatile man and a born leader, Sam is sure to succeed in any walk of life. James Clarence Deaver B. S. Monk Pkrry, Fl. . The rather since Ci ' ery man is the son of his own ivorks. Assistant in Accounting and Eco. II ; Florida Club. Monk has no facial resemblance to the animal after whom his affectionate class- mates have named him. Of a somewhat re- served nature. Deaver probably has too many figures juggling about in his brain to think much of external happenings : for Account- ing is J. C. ' s hobby. In every course per- taining to business, Monk has become proficient ; and with this equipment we pre- dict a successful career for Deaver in the world of affairs. Monk has won his way into the hearts of all his class-mates and will leave a place hard to fill on Davidson ' s campus.

Bob climbed steadily upward on the ladder of prom- inence. With four years on the Honor Roll, finishing as Valedictorian of the Class of ' 23, Bob holds a record seldom equalled bv any student. But in the position of Editor-in-Chief of the Davidsonian he has served the college at the most difficult post on our cantpus, and the quality of the weekly pub- lication has borne evidence of Bob ' s editorial abil- ity and untiring energy. D. C. is loathe to part company with a man of the calibre lA Bob Davidson, and we are hoping he ' ll decide to take an M. A. here. With the record which he carries it is super- fluous to predict a brilliant future for this out- standing figure in the Class of ' 23. John Henry Davis, Jr. B. S. Bevo Wauchula, Fla.

Bevo is never so much at home as when squinting through a micro- scope or cutting up a frog in Bug lab. No doubt of his ability as a student, for his name appears on the ' 22- ' 23 Honor Roll. Through a somewhat check- ered college career — dropping out one semester and returning the next — Bevo has forged his way to the front. We look for Davis to carve himself a niche in the hall of fame along with Lamarck and Darwin, and we hope this will be done next year, as it is rumored that be is to return as an Assistant Professor in the Biological Department.

This man ' s early life spent in the pastures of Columbia, has not been conducive to the rush and turmoil of our campus life here. When Tally arrived he received a jolt that wholly aroused him from his state of leth- argy, since then he has fairly gobbled up all things in his path. As an Assistant in French and English. Tally has been a bug- bear of many a hopeful student. Our Wild- cat nine, due to hard work of Manager El- liott, has probably the best schedule of games this season that a team has had in years. With the start Tally has acquired in life he ' ll do the circuit in fine form and be a great credit to his Alma Mater.
