22 THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX MASON PRESSLY YOUNG. NVonderer at all he meets, YVon,dje,rer chiefly at himself, VVho can tell him what he is? 'MSM Mr. Young, the son of Henry M. and Flora J. Young, became an interrogation point in Due XVest, S. C., on June 26, 1887. He first asked questions in the Due lVest Academy of Mental and Moral Philosophy Cin other words, the Sabbath Sch.oolJQ later in the graded school. His college career began as a Prep'l but now he has climbed up to the Senior Question Box and fills it Well. His grand- father was for many years professor, also treasurer, of Erskine College, and architect of the Euphemian Society Hall, which is named in honor of his Wife. Mr. Young is a member of the Euphemian Society. Cupid's darts have never pierced his heart, for it is too thickly coated with a love for organic chemistry. M. P. YOUNG . 7031 I1 - r- Lx SQMQMN J4

THE NAUGHTY-SIX CALYX RALPH JAY ROB1NSt JN. Witli thee are silent fame, Forgotten arts Ifllltl wisdom disappeared. To McCormick, South Carolina, is given the honor of being' the birthplace of Ralph Jay Robinson, and September 26, 1886, the time. Nature showed herself in variegated colors when she was fitting' the large-liearted, friv- olous, ingenious Ralph for a career through life. Genius has set her seal upon him, and Fame is calling from her hall in fairyland. ln his preparatorycourse at the McCormick Acad- emy he developed an aptitude for learning' and delving deep in the fount of fiction and history, and in these departments of educa- tion, Erskine can boast of no more thorough student. He is a faithful, active member of the Euphemian Society, in which he has held several positions of responsibility and trust. By a personality which is attractive and good- natured graces that fix themselves on human hearts, Ralph has won his way with ease into the companionship and confidence of all who have ever enjoyed his acquaintance. Yet amid all his propensities toward living' with the an- cient historians and story-tellers, he is at the same time alive to the atheletic features of college-life, and was last year a member of the baseball team. Verily, he is a sui generis, and as was said of Eng'land's king, his virtues are his own, and if he has any vices they must be of thc times. ROBERT MASON STEVENSON- STEVE O-ur various cares in one great point combine, The business of our lives-that is-to dine. On September 5, 1936, autumn ushered in the arrival of this youth, thus making glad the heart of his parents, Bev. and Mrs. B. M. Stevenson. His boyhood was spent in Clover. S. C., and at the high school of this place. and at that of Bethany he was prepared tor college. In '03 Erskine became his instruct- ress, and his name was added to her Sopho- more roll. Philomathea is the Society of his choice. To her he has proved a loyal sou, and has rendered her service as a Marshal at the Semi-annual in '04, and as President in '06, His line physique has made him an im- portant factor in athletics, and has won him a place on both the football and baseball teams. . 569: R.
