WALLACE GROVES, 119 A A GIXKLAXVN, ARLINGTON COUNTY, VIRGINIA XVally Virginia State l'lnb Half ci Prince of good-fellows '4Wally,l' our quiet, deinure friend was not long in proving his sterling worth and unusual ability. Dur- ing the years just gone by we ha,ve found him to be Z1 most excellent student and the best of good fellows. His ability along study lines may well be judged by the fact that in four years he has accomplished the most unusual feat of earning two degrees-that of Bachelor of Science at the Hilltop and the welcome LL. B. But despite his studies, which of necessity were most heavy, he found time to play and gradua- tion day finds him popular with the Faculty and students of both branches of the University. He in- tends to practice law in the District, and. as whatever he takes upon himself to do. he does well, we predict a long and successful practice for this Virginian.

Roy's immersion into the law has been deep, and he firmly believes that no other pro- fession or career can equal in importance that of the lawyer and intends to inculcate into the minds of'his fellow citizens such high esteem for the la,w. Luck to you, follower of the commentaries. ELWIN ELWOOD HADLICK BLUE EARTH, lXl1NN. axE1Iyv9 I wil! To know lflwin is to know self-mastery.
