' I ain't seen it . Sometimes We Wonder Whether he has or not, but when he starts his calcium carbonate We realize that Whether fhe has or not there is something in his eye that tells us he'll be a success. Ham is one of the royal tooters of the orchestra. Not only does he play the sax, but he is already to fill in on the piano at any time. His art Work, as can be seen th-rough this book, is 'beyond rep-roach so We Will let it speak for itself. Another of Ham's indoor sports is his ability as a Writer. Not only the Archon but also the Milestone and the Newburyport News would feel his ab-sen-ce were he to withdraw from their service. He has one Weakness though. He always claimed that no girl could steal his heart, but a certain brunette at West Bridgewater' has ke-pt him from eating for sometime. We feel, however, that, if he only finds that spo't model , when he reaches Yale he will win that success which he Well deserves and which he is capable of achieving. Hello, sa'h. l 18 l 1 L'

Qne of them is Eddie Woodward, and the other is Soot Sawyer. These two have co- ordinated perfectly as room mates for two years. They have shared each other's women, clothes, cigarettes, and bad language with perfect harmony. Even in the Commons.- Eddie's chief charm Cfrom the feminine point of viewi is his blonde marcel. Whether it is his chief pride or not, we don't know, but it is al- ways in the best of condition. Eddie is not a vain man, and we won't suspect him of a curling iron or Stacomb, but it is queer how well his hair always looks-especially when there are women good to look upon in the vicinity. Eddie has distinguished himself as a man of no mean athletic odor. As a center on the football team and on the basketball team, he has been along with the boys all the time. And the way he plays pro tennis-oh my! How the femmes love to watch him. Eddie would make a good lead off man on the Spec team if there were such. Both the Portland men follow the experienced smoker rather than try- ing to find out what a whale of a difference just a few cents make. We'v-3 never seen Eddie in Portland, but he carries himself expertly at all the dances. They all fall, but he sticks faithfully to that certain party in the old home town. Watch me get a rec' from this one! l17l

''Jack-at-the-Drums is in most of Dummer's mem-books, and as a drummer, Jack is certainly second to none. That's why he's so speedyg he beats time. The fact that the ladies flock around when he enters testifies to his looks and sheiking ability. The score card on the exterior of his stationery box has grown in magnitude exceeding any other, in school. Besides being on the school orchestra Jack procures orchestras of excellence for Dumgmer's proms. We all wonder how Jack gets all these week-ends. He claims a brok- en arm or something else just as trifling. Anyway, he comes back with re- ports on what a time that arm had. Jack is also one of these athletic butt-fiends. He has been Dum- mer's star right end for two football seasons, high jump man on the track team, and Varsity first baseman. His Smoking Club attendance is very regular, and his Spec prowess is by no means small. He studies under the illusion tlhat the University of Pennslyvania needs bigger and better men from Dummer.
