Another proof that “Still water runs deep.” Glass has been making higher grades and better friends at Greenbrier for three years. He is the type that will succeed in anything he goes into. A gentleman, a scholar and a fine fellow. ROGER E. HOLMAN CHARLOTTE, N. C. Lacy 1930-31. Private, Co. ‘‘C’’; Crack Squad; Midget Football. 1931-32. Corporal, Co. ‘“‘C’’; Non-Commissioned Officers Club; Midget Football; Rho Dammit Rho. Although “Roger” took a little unwar- ranted vacation at Easter, he came back in fine style and graduated with honors. North Carolina is going to receive one of our best students next year as well as one of our best sports. OF 1932 ‘anes CHARLES B. GERMAN FOSTORIA, OHIO Lacy 1930-31. Private, Headquarters Co., Band Section; Colonel Football; Wrestling Squad; Rifle Team; Green and White Orchestra. 1931-32. Private, Headquarters Co., Band Section; Green and White Orchestra; Rifle Team. Did you notice the target that was posted on the bulletin board? Well, it was perfect. He has an eye that every eagle envies. If he shoots as good a target in life, G. M. S. will be proud to have him as an alumni. PRESTON BOOKER HUNDLEY LYNCHBURG, VA, Philomathean 1928-29.

He is one of the well-known tenors in the serenades held on the first stoop after taps.

CTHE BRIER PATCH OF 1932 GEORGE REED FAILING LUKE, MD. Lacy 1931-32. Private, Co. “‘B’’; Hi-Y Club. Another one of those quiet boys from Maryland who is keeping up the reputation of former Marylanders. Even though this was his first year, he has learned the great lesson, “How to Study.” He knows his Shakespeare and will remember Luke in Senior Bible as well as his home town. We are waiting to hear of your next achievement, which will probably end in the downfall of Governor Ritchie. WILLIAM A. FENNEL HONOLULU, T. H. Philomathean 19312324) brivates Gon Aww Fennel comes to us from “the melting pot of the Pacific,” a far away land of palms and pineapples. His ability to carry on an in- teresting conversation has earned him great popularity. Since he has come so far to Greenbrier, we believe, he will take much knowledge with him when he leaves. To the “future Colonel of the Hawaiian Air Corps,”’ good luck. OSCAR A. FELKER PITTSBURGH, PA. Philomathean 1928-29. Private, Headquarters Co., Band Section; Varsity Football, Basket Ball; Track, Rifle Team; “‘G” Club; Dramatic Club; Pitt Club. 1929-30.

First Sergeant, Headquarters Co., Band Section; Non-Commissioned Officers Club; President of “G’ Club; Sigma Lambda Chi Fraternity; Pitt Club; Putt and Shoe Club; Varsity Football, Basket Ball; Captain, Boxing and Track. 1931-32. Captain, Co. “C3 Varsity. Football, Basket Ball, Boxing, Track and Baseball Teams; Sigma Lambda Chi; Pitt Club; Boot and Spur Club; “G” Clubs hia Club: We could say so much about “Otto” that it would take a page or two. Ask any man in Company “C” about him. Then, too, look at the above honors, they speak for themselves. G. M. S. will miss this athlete. WILLIAM WRIGHT FITZSIMMONS, Jr. ELIZABETH, N. J. Philomathean 1931-32. Private, Co. ‘‘C’’; Glee Club; Boxing Team. Although “Fitz” has not been with us long, he has made many friends. He has displayed his ability as a boxer by making the team and doing well in his first attempt. More power to you, “Fitz”! You have that good, winning punch.

CTHE BRIER PATCH OF 1932 W. C. IGNATIUS, Jr. CINCINNATI, OHIO Lacy 1920-30.) Private, Co, Ds Ohio Club: 1930-31. Private, Co, “D’’; Crack Squad; Ohio Club. 1931-32. Corporal, Co. ‘‘B’’; Non-Commissioned Officers Club; Green Briars Staff; Ohio Club. Bill had a pretty tough squad but he soon learned to take care of ’em. Painstaking in his work, and always making the best of his opportunities, we expect great things of “Iggy.” Here’s hoping you win your laur els soon. Has Greenbrier brought forth the future editor of the New York Times? He has the literary ability! EDWARD MASON JEFFRIES LEWISBURG, W. VA. Philomathean 1929-30. Private, Co, “‘C.’”’ 1930-31. Private, Co. ; 1931-32. Private, Co. ‘““B’; Track Team. This modest town boy credits himself with few honors, but leaves them for others to see. He is a good track man. He has the determi- nation and the ability to accomplish big things, and we expect to see his name among the notable graduates of Greenbrier in a few years. 6c ” FREDERICK W. JASPER, Jr. GLEN JEAN, W. VA. Philomathean 1931-32. Private, Co. “B’; Varsity Football; Varsity Basket Ball; ‘‘G’’ Club; Forensic Club. Although Freddy has been with us but a year, he is already one of the best-liked cadets in the student body. He is a true pal to his friends, and his enemies are none. Freddy is a sterling athlete, making three letters during his only year at G. M. S. Conscien- tious and hard working, he will certainly go far! WILLIAM SAMUEL KERR STEUBENVILLE, OHIO Philomathean 1929-30. Private, Co. ‘‘B’’; Ohio Club; Colonel Football. 1930-31. Private, Co. “B’’; Ohio Club; Dramatic Club; Colonel Football. 1931-32. Corporal, Co. ‘‘B’?; Non-Commissioned Officers Club; Ohio Club; De Molay; Colonel Football. “Battling Bill,’ from Steubenville, has had as much success at G. C. W. this year as he had playing football with the Colonels. Who is this girl that has “Harpo” entwined ’round her finger? We often wonder. We can ex- pect no more of a man than for him to try his hardest and Bill has done that, certainly. He’s a good pal to all of us and we shall miss him more than a lot.
