We will not soon torget his noisy iokes which could be heard in the classroom on the athletic 'Field and in the locker room. Despite this outward show ot exuberance, Bob was one ot the most industrious members ot our class. Few ot us realize the work that he did in main- taining his scholastic average. This seriousness was carried over' into athletics where Bob was a hard-working member ot the tootball, wrestling, and track teams. Bob's boisterous personality and musical talent made him well-liked by all who came in contact with him. It is too bad that, because ot his numer- ous interests outside ot school, tew ot us got to know him well. Behind a veneer ot ioviality was a seriousness and honesty worthy ot sincere triend- ship.

His lunchroom oralory and amusing anlics are lypi- cal of his mirlhful allilude. As would be expecfed, Ball'our's easy-going nalure and sociable manner are responsible for his many friends and lhe facl lhal he is ollen engaged in his many inferesls. Thus, he seems 'ro have a wide range of exfra-curricular acfivifies bolh in school and oufside. Perhaps foremosl' lo him is lhe Cur- ren+ Evenfs Club which he serves capably and con- scienliously as presidenf.
