She is always merry, and a frown is seldom seen on her smiling face. She was very successful as assistant director in the Senior Play, and as a typist-well-just ask Mr. Costello. Gert expects to be a business lady next year, though with that certain red Mercer seen on East Quincy Street so frequently-who knows? But whatever Gert does, all the luck and best wishes of 19Q4 go with her. FLRDIN AND GAGLIARDI Gag UA nd when lze spoke his words did gather thunder as they ran.

He is going to help uphold the honor of Drury at VVilliams next year, and it will be safe to predict that he will add a little to it. 241

EARL REGINALD DEMING Earl I nerer felt the kiss of lore, Nor marzfclen's hand in mine. Earl has been a very close friend of the manual training and scientific de- partments during his four years at Drury. His great stronghold is radio and, in fact, anything pertaining to electricity. Earl intends to put in his appearance at the General Electric School at Schenectady next year. He tells us that a shock received from electricity is reciprocally proportional to one received from the sight of a painted idol. VVhen all's said and done, we all believe that Earl would make Steinrnetz hump in time to keep his job, were that wizard still living.

Eddie, while appear- ing to he of a happy-go-lucky-nature, carefree and bold and all that. really is of a most sensitive and gentle, nay, 'even poetic, nature. Eddie's sorrow is that no one seems to understand him. Eddie was dealt a big handicap when he came to Drury in his Junior year, but he has made as many friends in our class as there are members of t.he class. No matter how thick the dark cloud, Eddie will find a silver lining. and he certainly will he hard to put down and out when he gets out into the world. NORMAN FREDERICK HEGGIE 6'Nonnie What rirgivfs cheek Can match this apple bloom? Yes, that's Nonnie , that tall, quiet-looking chap with the red hair. Nonnie is one of those very few fellows who have more friends than enemies. Nonnie is a great boy for practical jokes, that is, if they're not on him. W'e all remember the time he put the Lord's Transfer sign on San 9oucie's hearse. Even taxi men must have their fun. Nonnie is our regular gloom-dispeller. and the stories he doesn't know aren't Worth their Weight in German marks. Nonnie did not go Very deep into the athletic line, prefering to sign up with the Congos . He has not yet chosen what he will succeed at. Q5
