MARY CHARLOTTE LEWIS I.ewy A certain miracle of symmetry, A miniature of loreliness, all grace Summecl up and closed in lzttlex lllary, slze So liglzt of joot, so liglzt of spirit. Class Play 4 U Academe Stajj .L Band 3, .4 Mary was the star of our Class play, Polly VVith A Past , and in the role of Polly we found an admirable actress. However, you saw the play and nothing more need be said there-it spoke for itself. Lewy has taken a Classical Course and is Very fond of Latin as all who have taken it can verify. She roams our halls with a smile upon her lips always-which usually ends in a hearty laugh. Our proms. and receptions have usually found lNIary present-so the boys always enjoy the dance. CLAX TON ARTHUR MADISON D Clayt'l lVIatt Matty And great was the jall thereof. Baseball 1, 2, 3, 4 Football 3 Basketball 1, Q, 3, .4 Track 3, .lt Notice those clean-cut, athletic features. lNIatty is the first four-letter man that Drury has had in many years. I-Ie can high-jump and hurdle with the best of them, and on the basketball court he cuts a mean figure, while in baseball, Matt has no equal. Although Clayt is not a member of the band, he takes special interest in that organization, and with the most suitable and able help is fast learning how to swing a baton. In fact, he takes a lesson 'most every night. Clayt is going to New York University next year, and we soon hope to be reading once again of his extraordinary athletic ability. Q9

M.-XURICE JAFFE D Jaff HLVUYIIUII lleliglzfs me noi. Football 3, .Q .Iaff is a. very popular and well-liked fellow at the high school. The last two years have found him holding down a regular line position on Drury's football team, winning a great deal of praise and friendship be-cause of his hard and clean play at all times. He spent last year at the Fitizens' ltlilitary Train- ing Camp at Devens. Because of his good work at camp, .Iaff has been selected by officials as a solicitor for more fellows to go to Devens this summer. A scientific course has claimed Jaff's attention at Drury. He expects to go to Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute next year. HARRISON RICHARD KERR Dick 'Z1jaz':3z,' prince zriflz joyful eyes, And Iiglzfcrjonfecl flzan 1'l1ej0.r. Dick ought to give a good account of himself as a shepherd, for he hails from the far Woolly western suburb of Blackinton. He breezes into town every morning on a Berkshire Steed, and manages to beat the eight o'clock bell. some- thing ususual for most Blackintonites to do. Dick has taken the General Course at Drury. He has not definitely decided what establishment will be graced by his face next year. IYe're only surmising when We say Dick may spend some of his time in domesticating a certain Wild chicken that is roosting in Blackinton. VVho knows? 28

If the faculty decided to give higher marks than an A, Francis would surely rate the highest. Although small of stature and broad of mind, Rosebud displays extraordinary virility as a cave- man in putting the fair sex in their places, and in not showing susceptibility to their charms. The part of Clay in the class play was carried out to perfection by this good-humored youth, lwhile at the proms, Francis shakes a mean hoof. Rosebud intends to prove to the faculty members at Wlilliams next year how really simple and dumb they are. The best wishes of every member of l9Q4- go with you, old boy. RUTH MARION MARTIN Ruth I laugh not at anotlzefs loss, I grudge not at anotlzefs gain. And now we come to Ruth, the little girl with the little voice, who evidently believes in the saying, Children should be seen and not heard. But-Ruth can't be as shy out of school as in, for we all know that the Empire ticket office has an unlimited attraction for her. Who knows-we may be harbouring at future actress! Ruth has decided to go to Bliss-and that isn't far from the Empire Theatre. Is it the Bliss part that attracts, we wonder? 30
