T H E M I I I E S 'I' O N E .Y 5 JOHN SAMUEL BIZIIJGICS Baltimore, Md. Scientific Course lflntered school 19224 Preparing for the University of Pennsylvania Orchestra '26 Mid-year Prom Committee '26 Asst. Gym Instructor Football '2-1, '25 Tennis '25, '26 KKSZIYYIY1 The acme of manly beauty and physical perfection. Playmate of Earl Liederman and Charley Atlas. His best friend, a dumb-bell. Every other night this superman pulls from beneath his desk a Wicked looking contrivance, and amid cheers from the spectators, and much grunt- ing and sweating, proceeds to assume odd positions and make weird pass- es. Each month he collects magazines devoted to physical culture, but containing, as far as We can make out, numerous studies of the feminine nude with an occasional hairy ape. Sam was pivot man on the foot-ball team, a member of the track squad, and the tennis team. He engineered the Mid-Year Prom, taking the important part of Permanent Relief Man. When the cash-box got overloaded Sam relieve-d it promptly and permanently. But he Worked: hard, and the dance was a success, although Dr. Ing- ham seemed to have an uncomplimentary opinion of the orchestra. Next year Sam trots off to Penn, leaving Dummer with a place that will not be filled easily. y -l21l

T H E M I L E S T O N E r in DANIEL ADAMS BROWN Newbury, Mass, Classical Course Entered school 1922 Preparing for New Hampshire State I KlDan77 The quietest boy in Dummer Academy-so quiet, indeed, that one day Mr. Phillips asked in the study hall, Is Dan Brown still in school '? Whereupon Dan promptly gave pro-of of his presence with a few Well chosen words, breaking a silence of many Weeks. We haven't heard from him since. One could easily imagine Dan as the old owl perched on an oak who the more he heard, the less he spoke. But because he is so quiet and bashful, I can't find out anything about him and thereby hangs the tale. What ho! Dannello, my lord! I 20 I I

T H E M I L E S T O N E ROBERT CAMERON CARTER JR. Glens Falls, New York Classical Course Entered school 1925 Preparing for Hamilton College Football Squad '25 Tennis Squad '26 Nick Nick is one of our little cut-ups. French III is usually the scene of his straying from the straight and narrow path. He gets up and beats the boys mercilessly, showing neither fear nor favor. Up on the top floor of Commons where Nick resides there sometimes arise foul and rank odors. Scientists are unable to discover the reason for these, although Nick Schultz has advanced some logical theories. We are unable as yet to make these public, but hope to after a little more research work. One thing which does make us mighty proud of Nick, and that is the way he does the Charleston, or in fact any way he dances. Every muscle in his body comes into play in a sort of cross between the shimmy and the Saint Vitus dance. Nick went out for football, but hurt his leg. He dragged it around in a plaster cast for a good while. Before that he was a very promising drop-kicker and punter. He had a nasty habit of sticking his tongue out at peop-le, and was almost dropped from the squad when he caused several members to burst into tears by this unnecessary roughness. But he was a good sort, and one who will always bring a smile when we think of him. l22l
