THE CRESCENT 23 CLYDE STATES “Statesy.” “Be first at a feast and last at a fight.” “Stilts” as a back guard was a wonder. Nothing hindered him from stopping fhe ball, except the ceiling and as for bis baskets, 0! My. He is not an egotist although he does look down on all the rest of us. GLADYS McCAMMON “Mickey. ’ “Splitting the air with noise.” Mickey, our little “Irish Colleen,” is noted for ''■ r excellency in her studies, her sparkling ' ■ winsome smiles and her flirting. A future Alma Gluck and actress as she proved as Celia in “Green Stockings.” HOWARD MOSIMAN “Mosie. “Keep your temper for no one else wants it. Howard is our champion athlete and captain of our football team. Ibis well known by the terrible cases which he develops. Mosie seems to have no regrets at leaving us, but we can’t say the same. RUTH LOYD Babe. “She who means no mischief does it all. Ruth s little but mighty and especially in English class. She seems to have lots of trouble cf her own but we hope she will outgrow them and show her own true jolly self. RALPH SNELSON “Snick. “No one loves a fat girl, hut I’m an exception.” Snick, the fellow with an eye for business. A printer’s devil now, but a future editor, we hope.

24 TIIE CRESCENT HAZEL SI DWELL “Sid I. “The blush is beautiful, but it is sometimes inconvenient.” Hazel, our little Quaker girl, always keeps you in a whirl. No, she’s not so meek, she’s got a will. If you don’t believe me, just ask “Hill.” MARION LONG “Feathers.” “Little fish are sweet.” Feathers hails from the country. A prominent member of the Ecclesia and a future Red Cress nurse to take care of “Jack.” HOWARD SMITH “Smity.” “Every scrap of a wise man's time is worth saving.” This bashful boy came from a family whose name is known in every work of the globe. lie is quiet, modest, unassuming but energetic, painstaking, earnest, patient, cool-headed and rather mechanically inclined. But above all he’s a good sport. • NORVAL PEARCE “Buddy.” “Call no man unlucky until he is married.” Buddy, the pest of the school, the star end on our famous eleven. He worked hard to graduate under the “Blue and Old Gold” and we’re proud of him. As to his abilities in dancing, ask a certain Sophomore. “Sid II.” “A laugh is worth a hundred groans in any market.” She is always in a hurry; She’s ever in a stem; Always hunting up more work than she lias time to do. TRULA SI DWELL

26 THE CRESCENT EMILY McCARTY “Mac.” “Music washes away from the soul the dust of every day life.” Long live our basket ball star. Emily is our mannish girl. Now we don’t mean a tomboy or nothin’ but just a womanly appearance with a man’s ideals. We hope to see her in congress in the course of time. DEXTER LEE “Dex.” “He had a face like a benediction.” Dex hails from the farm and is a very quiet fellow. But listen, you should have been at the ‘Club.’ He is not English ’cause he can sec through a joke before anyone else. MARGARET MICHEL “Peggy.” “Thoughts shut up want air and spoil.” Margaret is quite a little maid. And yet she’s not at all staid. No wedding bells for her will jingle, for she’s going to remain single. On the farm (If she can). KENNETH ZAHN “Kenny.” “All that glistens is not gold.” As Reddo’s name signifies he has red hair, and perhaps this explains why lie spends all the time from Dec. 1 to Nov. 30 at the famous summer resort, Kute’s-on-the-corners. It seems however, that a crowbar couldn’t separate Kenny from his grin. MARTHA PINOLE “Dutch.” “An honest countenance is the best passport.” We have reason to believe that Dutch is considering taking up work in the missionary fields of Africa as a secretary (?) to Rev. Arend. If she does we must quit call ing her Dutch for the Reverend will never be a Duke.
