COLIN EAGLES DICK DULANEY An effortless genius, master of academic success without labor, throughout his high-listed years Dick has been known as a quiet intellectual. His friendliness and sense of humor, although hidden under a layer of re- serve, have, when uncovered, won him close friends. Although he appears so indolent with regard to his own academic pursuits, Dick shows more diligence when he is involved in such group endeavors as soccer and literary societies. Here the dynamic roll of his elliptical shape has managed ingeniously to keep various circles from becoming lopsided. ROWAN DOUGHERTY What could be more exciting than a bull in a chinal shop? How about a wild horse on a crowded dance floor? Our talented Tennessee Walker, with his strange interjections, has become relied on to enliven dances, meetings, and practices. Rowan, with his masterful impersonations and gallops around campus, appears to be a completely spontaneous child of nature, but we have also seen the fascinating, sophis- ticated lNir. Dougherty, devotee of the fine arts- including classical music and painting. He has the refined tastes of the gentleman that he is. Without much help from the English Department, Colin has mastered the art of poetic license. Even though his stories are hard to believe, Colle-Q's bawdy sense of humor and ability to entertain anyone have put him on many mailing lists. Colin's interior decorating talent is only surpassed by his talent for flabbergasting, which reached a pinnacle when he was on a physical fitness kick. Without a doubt, Colin has made a deep impression upon the minds of the faculty and students, and, with a little more effort, should be able to make some of his stories come true. 26

CHARLES COPPAGE Ftelentlessly agrarian in taste and manners, Charlie bustles about in his red DeMolay blazer, intent on mys- terious errands of his own. Ever cheerful, ever con- cerned for and with the antics of his fellow man, he has emerged as a self-appointed ambassador to the opposite sex and as a raconteur of graphic humor. Allowing no impediment to deter him from having his say, he de- mands to be heard for his staunchly conservative and patriotic causes, and he has shown himself to be worth listening to. BUDDY CRINER Add an Aw raight and a little mock incredulity to a sensitive -young man and you might end up with a top banana like Mr. Criner. Our urbane representative of Texas Across the River is always searching for another Chesterfield. His interest in reform has produced his fa- vorite political maxim: Stamp our poverty-stamp out the poor. Because of the keen mind that lives under his flaxen thatch, Buddy often manages to end a good bull session with a few well-placed truths, yet our amiable Senor listens to all sides, and his reassuring advice mirrors the quiet confidence of his character. PETE DANDBIDGE Although he has grown several inches, Pete has retained the deceptively fragile and innocuous appear- ance of his first year. Physically unscathed by the assaults of small gorillas on the mat or big ones on the lacrosse field, he can slash more deeply with one sarcas- tic Yeahl than lesser wits with a thesaurus of insults. He has sought neither to gain popularity nor to raise an- tagonisms, but has shown equal sincerity in his likes and dislikes. Whether wrestling with Latin or discussing the student body over an empty wastebasket, Pete remains a model of complete candor.

JIM EVERETT And then along came the 'Daddy Rabbit, singing his Carolina tunes and cryingiout hysterically, I told you numerous times. Behind his darksome visage is the light-hearted boy who goes to sleep on any dorm in any bed he finds vacant, sings in the shower, and bends basketball rims. The Big E is tough enough to tackle the largest opponent, sensitive enough to turn bright red, and thoughtful enough to win many friends. it -tx, .L - 1 I E I? , S is if ff ,tt ts ft gli fl It .3 I .54 I is I5 it Q fi ' 32 ., fkl JIM FITZHUGH As perhaps the most eminent representative of the Red-Headed League, Jim has made huge strides toward proving that hot tempers and carrot tops don't necessari- ly go together. Possessing the rare ability to combine an easy-going nature with conscientious dedication to any of his many responsibilities, from nightly phone calls to Sunday afternoon nature waIks. Versatility is the key- note to BurIy Jim's personality, as he fluctuates between brutal athletic prowess and surprising poetic sensitivity, or perhaps from AP to the High List in suc- cessive grading periods. BILL FLOWERS Once upon a time there was a fuzzy little bear, a roly- poly, jolly, kind, and helpful little bear, respected by the other animals because he tried so hard, and loved by lots of little girl bears because . . . well, he was. Fuzzy ran in the big race for the silver scroll, but on the last lap a naughty Doctor said he had a tragic flaw and could not finish that year. However, by running an extra lap and trying even harder he won his scroll, and everyone was happy. CThe moral, if you can bear it, is that there is a scroll for everyone who tries hard enough.l 27
