PHIUi This amicable, robust, sincere, well-meaning fellow has made a determined effort in the field of athletics. He is a game fighter, as shown by his willingness to fight on through the last moment of defeat. Always hurrying, always full of fun, yet possessing pertinacity, Phil is sure to gain friends. A joke or quip is always on the tip of his tongue. He has a pleasing personality, which combines readily with his other Characteristics. Phil is a good all-around fellow. He is a good dancer, which makes him very popular in the social world. Phil plans to enter the Marines this year, after his graduation, but we feel that wherever he goes, he will become a success. W.

IIT- 1.1! Even though cries of technocrat have assailed him from all sides during this year, Tom Lauroesch has stood the gaff of such remarks quite honorably. When he isntt slightly perturbed as a result of having been queried unmercifully by one or several liberal artists or the math or science teachers, T. I. is practically cognate to his fellow-classmen. Sometimes he even offers subtle little quips com- parable in degree of satire to those of several of his outstanding adversaries. Although he has not succeeded in many of his endeavors, as he readily admits and regrets, Tom will indubitably be able to make his existence happy for himself and at least endurable the majority of the time for those with whom he comes in contact.

HHOOT Not so long ago, only two years to be exact, the day boys of the Class of i413 were increased in number by one William Ortt, commonly known as Hoot? This very nonchalant but persistent individual showed great interest in photography as a Junior and was an active member of the DeVeauxnian Staff. Unlike the common rookie he had an exceptionally fine record in the line of delinquent reports and thus, returning for his Senior year, he found himself promoted to the rank of a Cadet Corporal. This year he very aptly held the position of Circulation Manager of both the DeVeauxnian and the Chevron. Graduating this year, Billtt has plans to become a Chemical engineer unless Uncle Sam interferes. P. R. M. Twenlywjaur
