But scholastic attainments have not been the sole procli- vities of this youth, for he has found it possible to be an active member and at present an ohicer in Major llobson's Soldiers of Fortune, besides displaying such forensic ability that he was elected president of the Philodemic Society. Honors and social successes have fallen Johns way While at Georgetown. and we can but add our earnest wish for a continuation. WALTER JOHN GANLEY l.,xwuENcE, Mass. VValt R. o. T.

However, our distinction reverts much of his ill-gotten praise to our candidate Walter. Some, of course, may differ, most jealous people do, but I am sure those who have witnessed his Dodge-ing campaign about VVashington w'ill agree. Besides be- ing most versatile in heart diseases, he is also well liked and well thought of among his friends, and the future should be brilliant for his career. HENRY DYMOKE GASSON Amzxixwnam, VA. K Hari-y'l Henry, the Virginia giant, hails as a rural person might skillfully say, from the timber land, 'round Alexandria and because of his nearness to well- cooked, healthful and free food, he has always been in our midst as a day scholar. 'fDoggin,'l however, has never detracted from his ability as a student. The proof for this can be found closely guarded in the Deans office, While the substantiation in a more liberal sense can be found from all who know him. Great and many fields of end ourselves are open lo him, so for this reason we hesitate in adding his selection, however no matter what his choice may be, if labor and diligence are the requisites, his success is assured.

George is usually seen in person or in image, in the front line of national society, occupying the diplomatic roll of social ambassador of the Three Musketeers whose names became foremost among us as occupants of the Lace Room and proprietors of the Pool Room. Say, man, that's my game. WILLIAM JOSEPH FAHEY KINGSTON, PENNA. Bill, Valparaiso Univ. CLaw5 C15 U. S. Army 1917-1919 lloly Cross College C25 C35 Georgetown CLaw '24, Arts '235C45 Pennsylvania Law Club Providence must have thought we needed more sagacity in our midst. Thus we account for Bill's arrival during our last year. A man of wide and diversifled experience, having studied in the west and north before coming to Washington and Georgetown. A short glance over his record shows his attainments and these we must pass without comment for we cannot add to them. It has been our pleasure to know him, to have been associated with him and to say we have gained is hardly sufficient. THOMAS F. FITZGERALD, JR. DORCHESTER, Mass.

If Tom were greedy he would deprive Burton Holmes of his protection from the hungry wolves of bed-time stories. Be- ginning at that prep school that has made the Granite State famous, Exeter, he went to France. Many a time and oft in the Quad, with chair legs to right of him, brickbats to left of him, water buckets before him, he has not only borrowed the ears of the multi- tude, but taken them as his permanent possession, by force of his oratory. A true son of the Athens of America, the Hub of the universe, we have not the slightest particle of doubt that Tom will run a 4.17 mile on the track of success and break the tape.

WILLIAM JOHN GOGGIN AIARLIEORO, Mass. 'LBill Varsity Football Q23 C35 Q41 ln all his voyages in and about America, Bill has always held a dear spot in his heart for Georgetown. Though it is almost useless to make any assertions as to Bills prowess on athletic fields, here are a few minimized: lixhibit A. If there were any more like Bill in school it would take only two men on a line of scrimmage. You may as well try to knock the pride of Marlboro down as kick the VVashington monument fifty yards. B. Then again, Bill puts the shot. Over in Baltimore one night he threw it so far they put him off the track team. Bill hit a hall down at Qnantico so hard either it is going yet or it was broken into so many pieces none were ever found. To make a long story short, if you have any desire to see a modern Hercules-that's Skinney.

WALLACE GROVES O,fxk1..xwN, ARLINGTON COUNTY, VA. l'W'allie Class 'Z3 Law School Hur college experience has at least rectified one error that existed in our feeble freshman mind, and that is to honor and respect the man who works. To some, this realization comes at a most disastrous time, and exercises in some manner most depressing results. either in the form of conditions or a silent reoncst to withdraw. As Sophomores we gazed again and found that there was among us a man, more than a student, a scholar. A man who strove for a goal and gave everything' he had to give. As Seniors we shall gramtlnate with XYallace Ciroves, and on the same day shall have the pleasure to see him receive his LL. B.
