e ]6 1 in - - CHARLES YOUNG.— Gamma Sigma Tau. Every man is the architect of his own fortune. — Sallust. When, at the beginning of the school year, we look around for presidential possibilities, the big axe always falls upon Red. He unites several presi- dencies in his person. His popularity can be attri- buted to his adhering to good, sound principles. Everybody respected his wise leadership. Deprive him of everything — but leave him his Shakespeare. Red can quote his Ingersoll almost as well as the Bible. He was not easily susceptible to the caprices of the fair sex. nevertheless lie once-a-while was the recipient of epistles from Southern Indiana. For several years he has been running a hair-em and always has a full house on Saturday. THEODORE SCHLUNDT JR.— Phi Delta Alpha. He ivas a man of infinite jest. — Shakespeare. Here ' s Teddy Trombone in real life. Lawdy he sho kin slide. Sometimes sad. Sometimes glad. alas, la donna e mobile In Indiana there ' s a place that Teddy calls Kokomo; He oftens wonders why her Grace would have things so and so. Ted has become of late a humorist, but his jokes are of such depth and profundity, that he alone can grasp their real significance. He was extremely optimistic about the coal situation, for to him — the less the coal, the nearer the goal. Ted. beware the Ides of December. WALTER MORY.— Gamma Sigma Tau. Come forth into the light of things; Let Nature be your teacher. — Wordsworth. Swiggie hails from the mountains of old Ken- tucky and has brought with him all his love for nature. He was a sober man despite the fact that he boasts of having come into personal contact with the moonshiners. He adored Browning for saying, Try to be a Shakespeare, and leave the rest to Fate. In class he had few rivals and generally carried off first honors. We will always remember his work as editor of the 1919 Elms. Even tho ' he does come from the South, the North (Wis.) holds a peculiar charm for him. CARL SCHERZER.— Phi Delta Alpha. Every student dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures. — . r. Beecher. Sherz was always in demand when artistic taste was involved. His ability in scenic productions was displayed in every college play. He was enrolled as a student of the Chicago Art Institute. Sherz was chairman of the Passah committee every Saturday night in suite 20. Ask Sherz if a know- ledge of self defense is an essential thing in teach- ing a class of thirteen year old lads in Sunday School. He was an industrious and energetic student and never knew what it was to give up. Twenty

EDWIN KOCH.— Gamma Sigma Tau. Be a philosopher; but, amidst all your philosophy be still a man. — Hume. Behold a philosopher. We hope that hd. will never be condemned to drink the hemlock. In the Economics hour, when asked for an example of artificial selection , his ' natural selection ' was— spuds. He is indebted to Sir Walter Raleigh for his splendid avoirdupois. Ed was always ready to lend a helping hand except when it came to per- forming a dangerous experiment in the chemical laboratory. An ardent Sunday School worker, he also delivered sermonettes in the outlying districts. He is a misogynist and his motto is Veni, Vidi, Fugi, but oh Ed, gnothi seauton. ARTHUR GERNAND.— Gamma Sigma Tau. He ivas ivont to speak plain and to the purpose, like an honest man, and a soldier. — Shakespeare. Art is a good mixer, both in Society and in the chemical laboratory. We can thank our lucky stars that the roof of the Administration building is still intact. He has a fixed idea that he can ' t concentrate, nevertheless we fail to get that im- pression judging by his showing in the lecture hours. Art is a wearer of the E. in every sport. He oc- casionally propounds cosmological theories of his own. He believes there is no place like home, con- sequently he makes his habitation outside of the college halls. VICTOR NEWMAN.— Phi Delta Alpha The jriends thou hast, and their adoption tried. Grapple them to thy soul with hoops of steel. — Shakespeare. Shorty claims that the Aurora Borealis results from a hot box at the N. Pole which the Eskimos seek to extinguish by pouring blubber oil over it. (He ought to know since he comes from the land of all year around summer — exception of ten months winter, Canada.) As an elocutionist, he has ac- quired great fame at Elmhurst, having entertained us on many occasions. He idolized James W. Riley. Shorty takes special pride in his well groomed mustache. When asked how he does it. he simply explains, Dye-r. WILLIAM SCHWEMMER.— Piii Delta Alpha. Still water runs deep. — Adage. Bill has kept us guessing, for he is generally a quiet un-assuming fellow. Like a Ford, he is hard to start, but equally hard to stop, once you get him started. Outside of regular class work, he devoted much spare time to domestic science. He |)ul Economics into practical applicalion and acled a- our jewelry entrepreneur. [Sill doesn ' t believe in giving up a thing he once starts. He has sIhumi this to us in many ways. We all congraliilair him on the pep with which he pursued his slmlic llii- year. Bill ' s prospects fdi- the fiiliiri ' lodk hiight.
