For four years they dominated all the other classes in the honor roll. In athletic ])rowess no other class could equal them. The Elmhurst spirit of class solidarity and cooperation was somewhat slow in developing l:)ut blossomed forth in full strength dur- ing the last two years when the class assumed full campus leadership. HoAvever, romantically the class sets a new, and heretofore unheard of precedent at Elmhurst. since no two members of the class have pledged fidelity toward each other. »» 36 ««

EOY F. ALBEESWEETH St. Louis, Missouri Eoy spent only his last two years at Elmhurst, but the speed and thoroughness with which he orientated himself is shown by his record: during that time he held offices in both the S. C. A. cabinet and the dormitory council and won two letters in baseball, acting as co-captain during his senior year. He was active in all other intramural sports and the E Club. LAUEENCE C. AUBUCHO? , JE. Elmhukst, Illinois Larry ' s four years were profitable ones, both for Elmhurst and him- self. He majored in both economics and history, earned a place on the honor roll his senior year, played football three years, earning Confer- ence mention during his senior year, and won four letters in tennis, acting as captain of the team his last two years. He was also a member of the E Club and the French Club. GLENN E. BAUMANN Highland, Illinois Glenn ' s drawl and easy-going manner were popular, but not more so than Glenn himself. His record includes both the elective offices at South Hall during his last two years and the presidency of the senior class. He was also a member of the Goethe Verein and an E Club member by virtue of two letters earned in football. A sociology major, Glenn plans to enter the ministry. EOBEET J. BAUMANN Elmhurst, Illinois Bob ' s interest in chemistry, math, and physics, and his position as assistant in the chemistry lab for three years, and the presidency of the Student Union kept him pretty busy, but not too much so that he neg- lected his other interests: chess, sleeping, eating, bridge, reading, and Kay Dewey. A straight honor student, he also had the part of an intelligent-looking Englishman in Death Takes a Holiday ' ' during his sophomore year. ELLSWOETH BLINN Oak Park, Illinois Ellsworth spent a good deal of his time with athletics, first as member of the tennis squad for two years, and then as manager of the track team his final two years, winning membership into the E Club through that role. He claims to have had no outstanding academic, hobby, or social interests, but plans to enter the sales field. » » « «
