RICHARD C. PAXSON 166 CASTLE AVE., WESTBURY, N. Y. Dick left the George School ranks during the winter to cast his lot with the Navy. lt was a lucky break for the Soccer team that he stayed until the end of the season with them, but his absence did leave a gap in early morning shift. Champion cornhusker of the George School stage, Pax was a familiar figure at the farm. ALISON MARY PICKARD 1839 ONTARIO PL., N. W., WASHINGTON, D. C. English Alison, who has been in this country but a few years, after living in Geneva, still loves tea, and her convivial parties are well-known. An international viewpoint and an infectious sense of humor, often unexpected, distinguished Alison, and greenhouse-tending is not the least of her versatile talents. A constant aide in the Infirm- ary, she hopes to secure a niche in medicine, with Mount Holyoke as preparation. I HENRY COMLY PICKERING, JR. WOODBOURNE, PA. Pick is a master at wrestling and a member of those day students. He wouldn't be himeslf without his little white car with its hoarse coughs and tinny rattle warning defenseless pedestrians of its zig-zag approach. His favorite class is physics, but he seems destined for some- thing along the agricultural line. .IU aa,-4 Dauclan-14.491-farlf-44'4't 8Al ' IM. . - ' ........f.g....f....f.f.f..m-.AA-1fP1P'M DONALD SCARFF PRESTON 4147 BEL AIR, MD. We will be sorry to see Ducky with his rousing good humor leave after such a colorful stay at G.S. Loyalty to Maryland, a southern joviality, and infectious enthusiasm distinguish Ducky as one of our outstanding personalities. We'll miss his spirited cheer leading, but he'll be leading many a good cheer for Victory, 'ere he re-enters Drayton's walls. MARY ELIZABETH RIDGE BELLEVUE AVE., LANOHORNE, PA. Like your sweaters big and your jackets from Jake Reed's ?- then you're a pal of Liz. She's the local girl who made good with a bang. Her favorite hobby is eating-and best known expression But I didn't come in to eat. Blessed with boundless energy, Liz is one of the school's most enthusiastic golfers and the live wire of many a good time. Twenty-one

WILLIAM HULL OSLER 340 EAST 57TH ST., N. Y. C. Tennis is Bill's forte, and his long stride and smashing stroke have earned him the captainship of the team. An admirer of Glenn Miller and Tommy Dorsey, Will owns a large selection of popular records. His suave manner has made him a favorite on the G. S. stage, and his sense of humor has worked equal wonders on the campus. ROBERT WILSON PARKER 5711 40TH AVE., HYATTSVILLE, MD. Bob's definition of heaven is a dozen chocolate eclairs, but he's no cream puff. As one of the knifemen in Mr. Sutton's Gestapo, Bob's the boy behind the man behind the little blue cards. He goes dreamy- eyed over Harry James, and the future may see him as a member of the Navy Air Corps. JAMES EDWARD PAXSON 219 vAssAR AVE., SWARTHMORE, PA. With his messed-up hair and ready grin, Jimmy's out there on the gridiron every fall, skirting the end. As co-captain of this year's track team, he ably sprints around the Cinder runway each spring. His pep and energy were turned to good use when he was Junior class president, and George School will long remember Jimmy's uproarious antics. Twenly

Well-known for his beaming face and knowledge of family his- tories fgeneology, to be exactl, Calvin has served the Religious Life Committee well, as a good Quaker. Our Calvin stole the stage lime- light several times this year, and he'll never be forgotten for his private F.B.I., by wvhich he can supply anyone with cousins. Earnest Rivertonian Calvin has great enthusiasm for workcamps and religious conferences. MARY LOUISE ROBERTS BLACKWOOD, N. J. Sprightly Louie is one of those after-breakfast gourmands, or perhaps, it is just an attachment to the dining room, cultivated by pushing a truck around on shift. An enthusiast for music, Qprobably in- fluenced by her roommate, the rice birdj and for fun, she has joined every song activity available She's a hockey devotee par excellence, and, it seems that she has a leaning toward sports in general. ZELDA DORF ROSENBLUM 737 PARK AVE., N. Y. c. That wide, friendly smile, bright red -hair, a New York drawl, a delicious wardrobe, and a passion for Park Avenue, all add up to make our Zelda. She played a leading part in the Senior play, has a great urge for a good rhumba and a steak dinner, and loves to sketch fashion designs. To finish off this versality, Zelda plans to take up engineering at Drexel. HARRY ROBERT ROSS CREEK RD., RUTLAND, VERMONT 'I A ,.',Roscoe'Vis one,9f-I those skiing sha11ks ' from Vermont.

This cheery Baltimore Oriole has made quite a reputation for herself as a songstress in mixed chorus and the girls' glee club. She is often found collecting pink and blue cards in the dining room or helping out the nurses in the infirmary, and we predict that Florence Nightingale will be in for some competition when Reds begins training.
