Jim is in the band and he can really give out with those notes. Incidentally-if a battered, old, jalopy, full of Druryites is seen bumping down Main Street-it's sure to be Jim's. ADELARD NAPOLEON MAILHOT, JR. Eddie is a handsome lad, a smooth dancer and happy-go- lucky. He always has a cheerful smile for everyone and a quip to ga with it. In case you haven't seen him around lately, it is because he is now a sailor in Uncle Sam's Navy.

Jimmie plans to enter a conservatory of music.
