FRANKLIN PETER FOLLETT, UD. -Peter hiked in with the Freeman bunch and resolved to stick to '05 or die trying. He made the football team Freshman year and has played every season since, being a strong man at tackle. Pete has won points in the W. C. I. A. A. meet and has twice been elected track captain. He was president of the class Junior year,and managed the hop so that the class was no coin outf' Having an inclination towards slang, his conversation would make that Chicago professor's heart glad. He has no use for 'fde swell bunch, and seems to get along very well without them. After graduation he expects to take up electrical engineering. RUTH AUGUSTA HAMBLEN - To all outward appearances a dignified Sen' ior who is worthy ofthe title fprobably due to the fact that she once presided at class 1neeting.j Such she is in the eyes of the awe-stricken freshies, but to those who know her-. Of course we would not injure her reputation, but appearances are sometimes deceptive, and do you re- member that Ruth. too, was once a foX?,' So pray don't be misled by her angelic expression, for she is really one of thejolliest girls in the class, frequently springing her jollies on her unsuspecting victims. Ruth has always been one of our brightest stars, being chosen for her scholarship to speak at graduation, and also elected class historian. Her work on the Ac- ademe as exchange editor and contributor to the Dru has been especially valuable, while the part she took in the farces was proof of her ability in other lines. Next year she will display her brilliancy at Wellesley.

CHRISTINE FOSTER EGAN--Though one would never think it from her quiet and unassuming manners we are sure that Christine is blessed with considerable talent in the musical and artistic lines. It is in these subjects that she has been an especial star, bringing credit to the class, while in her other studies, likewise, she has always stood well. Of late she has been subject to frequent attacks of the giggles, usually ac- counted for by the merry presence of Sue. In recognition of her musi- cal ability, Christine is to have a solo at graduation. As her future course is not yet decided upon, we can only wish her the best of success in whatever she un- dertakes. WILLIAM CHESTER EMIGH, K fb A, D, -Bill has always been a jolly fellow, and While seeming to take life easily of good hard work. He has regularly come out for football and track work, in which departments his grit and deter- mination should be an example to the underclasses. Elected a member of the Academe Assn., in Sophomore year, he was school note editor and was finally choseneditor-in-chief in his Junior year. He spoke at the Kappa Phi Alpha prize speaking Junior year and received an appointment Senior year. He was elected captain of the track team upon Follett's resigna- tion this spring. He has not yet decided what he will do next year. has found time to get in a pile

ROBERT HENRY HARVIE, E A X-Robert strolled in with the rest of the Freshmen and has not made a much more rapid motion since. His friends tell us that he's a regular vaudeville performance when you get him started, but we pause before that awful effort. To us who have seen him only at school, he seems truly a sad man and a serious,-much given to introspection. The opinion seems to be quite general that he is love-sick, for he seems not to have slept much o' nights. He is said tu have once made the baseball team. He will take the rest cure after graduation. HARRY EUGENE HAYDEN, 2 AX-Plug, he doesn't like to be called Plug. and while rejoicing in tovvsling other people's hair doesn't like it if the deed returns upon the doer, is a person Whose nerves are very much in evidence. He likes to argify and can chew the rag for hours Without clinching an element of proof. Harry 's chief joy in life is to sit down in his senior chair and then have the chair take wings, as those senior room chairs do. His strong point is history and he will doubtless someday be a prof.,' Harry is a violinist of note, and during the next four years expects to Hddle his way through Williams.
