JANIIESON DOUGLAS KENNEDY D Football 4 Academe Siaj' J, Athletic Editor Class Book Jimmy,, has been a loyal supporter of the class of 1919. He served as manager of the football team during an unusually hard period, and has always been ready to lead a long Drury yell for the team. He was also a member of the baseball squad during his senior year. His work as Professor lllagee in the Senior play was also commendable. In his studies, Jamieson has al- ways favored chemistry and English, more especially the latter, in which it was his delight to delve far into the mysteries of the analysis of grammatical forms. I ff' GRACE MAE KNIGHTS Grace and Ret are inseparable, perhaps because they have one thing in common-same color hair. Grace is generally quiet except when she is Within her own domain, which is rooms Q9, 39, and 28. Here she has as much to say as her classmates. Our best wishes for success go with Grace and we hope that the space left by her departure will be capably filled. 23

f EDWARD JOHN JERDO N Jake is another of our westenders, but unlike the others he is always chasing rainbows, and has found the end of the rainbow on Blackinton Street. He is not a man of few words, and always expresses himself in a very peri- phrastical manner. As an oratorical genius, Jake is well known and very highly appreciated. One of his orations won him the honor of shaking hands with our new superintendent, hir. Burr J. hlerriam. Eddie was a member of the Senior cast and did as well as any in playing the part of Prof. James. He succeeded in getting many laughs by using extraordinary an extraor- dinarily large number of times. Jake is one of the few in our midst who have talent along several lines. Besides being an orator, he is well posted in chemistry and was offered a position as substitute to lllr. Oliver. Then last, but not least, comes Jake's love for law. It has been said that a jury is sometimes won over by the effects of a lawyer's plea. If this is true, Jake is a success. He proved his ability in a mock trial in an oral English class, and although he was defeated, we are sure he will make good after spending four years or more at Georgetown Uni- versity where he intends to complete his studies. EARLE IXIARCUS JENNINGS HD Iiaselfall .Q Mickey hails from the west end and therefore, has boosted railway stocks considerably. His hardest task while at Drury was dodging the fair sex and in this, we must give him credit for his excellent work as he certainly did keep his distance from them. While not permanently engaged, Earle took tickets at the lunch counter and many a good feed have we had on him. He showed his grit by sticking to baseball and earning a permanent position on the team Earle will, without doubt, follow the footsteps of our great business men as he graduates from the business side, where he proved io be a good fellow QQ

lcadcme :1.S'SOCl'Clfl.071 19, J FANNIE KRONICK Academe If Fannie Kronick does not make much noise, not because she's so small, but because she is reserved and digniied. Fannie expects to sell dry goods next year and we hope she will give us all a bargain. Fannie just loves lNIiss Griffin, because she said so. VVe don't know what Fannie expects to do after her dry goods are all sold out, but We sincerely hope that he will be home from the navy by then. 144118 ERNEST LANOUE Here he is, the smartest boy in the class. The little fellow with the grin. Did I say smart? IVell, I should say so. Ernie is one of the fellows who went through in three years, almost. He is one of the few who has success- fully weathered the storms of Greek. Diocedes and Ephesius have no terrors for him. He takes Xenephon every day for lunch. This year Ernie,, has earned the dividends at the G. E., where he intends to become an electrical something or other. Here's the best wishes of ,19, old man. Q4
