Freshman Year: Horticultural Society, Orchestra. Junior Year: Orchestra, Horticultural Society, Natural Science Club. Senior Year: Band, Orchestra, Interdorm Basketball. We take great pleasure in presenting for your approval, none other than Sol Colton, the inventive genius of the age. Sol has contrived more contraption for the practical conservation of human energy and waste motion, than Edison. Sol possesses the rarest collection of bone-dry jokes ever cracked by anyone from Punxsutawney to Oshkosh. But nobody can kid him about his music because he ' s followed the band wagon ever since he was knee high to a mouth organ. You ' ve got the pep, vim, vigor and vitality, so we know you ' ll succeed. Why not keep us in mind. HARRY DUBROW Dvby Horticulture Age 18 New York City Commercial High By repeated blows the oak is felled. — Benjamin Franklin.

Well, now that it ' s out we might as well tell you that his beautiful bits of poetry have adorned many a page in the Gleaner.

Junior Year: Horticultural Society, Interdorm Baseball, Interdorm Basketball, Ways and Means Committee. Senior Year: Horticultural Society, Interdorm Baseball, Interdorm Basketball, Ways and Means Committee. Sam ' s tonsorial results, combined with his landscaping ability, helped produce a most artistic effect on many a student ' s dome. But all kiddin ' aside Sam , you cer- tainly do know your Salisburia adiantifolia when it comes to improving on Ma nature. Quietly and unobtrusively Sam has won his way to our hearts (and often to our pockets); you may be a pessimist but we hope that your future may be indicative of the words, Pessimism hath her virtues.

And listen now, — you ' ll be a big man some day. We wonder if your height has had anything to do with your ability as tractor technician. You ' d better land a good paying job to keep those legs of yours in pants. Bob has the reputation of having had more vacation than anyone else in the Senior Class, he being the inimitable French-leave artist. And many ' s the call he ' s paid the Dean. Let us hear from vou, Bob . -4 18 {=•■

SAUL MAXWELL ECKSTEIN Ecky Dairy Age 20 Kansas City, Mo. Kansas High Eccentricity is the characteristic of the genius. — Alfred Crowley. Freshman Yeah: Varsity Football Squad, Veterinary Club, Dairy Club, Natural Science Club. Junior Year: Varsity Football Squad, Veterinary Club, Financial Committee. Senior Year: Varsity Football Team, Financial Com- mittee. This loyal son of Kansas blew into Farm School like a cyclone. He ' s leaving us like a lamb. Of course, we ' ll miss your laughter, your talk, your smile, your cheer, and that rot; but most of all we ' ll miss you — just you. Consistent dependability to the nth degree — that ' s Ecky on the gridiron. For two years he took punishment as a shock absorber on the second team, achieving in his third year a regular berth on the Varsity and most coveted F . If anyone is more accomplished or profi- cient in the science of milk technology — we ' re from Missouri, because Sol certainly knows his butterfat. BENJAMIN ESSRIG Benny Dairy Age 20 Philadelphia, Pa. Germantown High Mightiest powers by deepest calms are fed And sleep, how oft on things that gentlest be. — P. M. Procter. Freshman Year: Dairy Club, Interdorm Basketball. Junior Year: Boosters, Class Baseball, Interdorm Base- ball, Interdorm Basketball. Senior Year: Interdorm Baseball, Interdorm Basketball. Ever since we can remember Benny has been one of those easy come, easy go fellows. Taking life as it came he jested at the seriousness of it all and so walked un- concernedly in bliss. Despite his nonchalant air, however, Ben has managed to absorb the techni- calities of dairy husbandry with a zeal which will insure him success in that line of work. With his own quiet unassuming sense of humor, he will make his w ay through life, as he has until now. 4 20 ! =•
