JOHN REMINGTON HOBBIE, 2 A X-John Remington rushed into our ranks for a short time and then on account of his health disappeared to regions unknown. However, he one day again loomed up on our hori- zon and has been with us ever since. He spoke at the Kappa Phi Alpha prize speaking contest junior year and received honorable mention Senior year. John is a math. shark, chemistry shark, and sprouted his fins in physics. He arrives at school early enough to see certain freshmen enter, and loves fresh air to the extent of keeping the vvindovvs open fthough the entreaties of the class freeze in their throats. He expects to study naval architeo- l ture at M. I. T., but it is believed that there are other attractions down Boston way. SAMUEL MANSFIELD JONES, 2 A X-Sammie seems alvvays to have been with us. Way back in the green vista of our freshmanhood he was one of us and one vvit.h us. We didn't see much of him then, but he was around. He began, We believe, with studying the dead language. but now something lively,--like Wilhelm Tell, in the original, -is his chief delight. Sam believes in getting all the good in life and helping others to do the same. Work never troubled Sam. and Whois got their Dutch, with variations, still rings in our ears. He was chosen class president Senior year to the duties of which oflice he has sacrificed much of his time. He had a leading part in the farces, which he inter- preted in a pleasing manner. Next year he will enjoy himself at M. I. T.

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.

THOMAS CRICHTON MALCOLM, K LID A D. H--Since Fresh- man year We have been expecting Tom to do something wonderful, and last winter our expectations were justified when he took first prize in Kappa Phi Alpha prize speaking, He has come out for basketball, foot- ball, and track, earning his D in basketball' Junior year, and making it goodn this year. Until lately We have believed Tom proof against fem- inine vviles, but in the last year we have had reason to believe that indeed all rnen are motral . He has not decided vvhat he will do next year. ANDREW L. MATTE-Andrew was absorbed by '05 some time in the g Junior year from some place in Canada, A although his home was in this city. He was glad to get back to U. S., f'O5j, and has shown decidedly Ameri- can instincts. He arrives at school every morning just before the signal rings, and no amount of beckoning from the window can induce him to quicken his pace. His pet studies are math., chemistry and electricty. Andrew takes things easily and being a thorough student as Well as small in stature he climbs over or crawls through obstacles in a manner surpris- ing to behold. He Will go to M. I. T. to keep Hobbie in good order, and incidentally to study electrical engineering.
