G.S.B. Hamilton's latest edition in a long line of Burke progeny, has managed over his four years on the Hill to infect acquaintances from Pettybone to Wilder, from the Lodge to the Mid Ocean Club with the Art of Being Casual , or as he paraphrases his idol, Stephen Potter, How to be Shoe withou-t actually trying. Burke, whose nature is disposed to live in divided and distinguished worlds, has compiled a singularly impressive record in academics, athletics, and house politics., ' HARLAN DANA CALKINS Delta Upsilon Rocfaerter New York D.

His scientific curiosity satisfied, he proceeded to become one of the most versatile and active students on campus. Although he called his home the Gymnasium and Mox Weber his foster father, he left an indelible mark on the DU House. Analyzed by his brothers as having one of the general characteristics of a simple schizo-always appearing preoccupied, Harlan spent more time making charts on when to study, than studying. ROBERT MATHEW CARDILLO Emerson Literary Society Bayside New York Football 2, 33 I. V. Football 1. It was not until his senior year that the Rock achieved acclaim for perfecting the miserable times that have plagued E. L. S. for the past four years. One of the last in a line of honorable drinking cronies which included Wishey Sauer and Dick Wheeler, Bob's quest for a good party led him to such dismal and distant places as Hartwick and Montreal, only to have the crow accompany his expeditions and doom them to failure. An honor student, philosopher, and scientist extraordinaire, he was also Grand Master of the repartee at E. Hall--notwithstanding his Brooklyn accent.

The little man of the.,,Second Floor Steering Committee-Boss Chapman-met his match in only two things while at Hamilton, letter writing and French. The few spare minutes between bull sessions were sometimes spent in studying, but -usually as liason officer between the rest of the house and the not to be under-estimated chef of the Alpha Delts.

Yes, there's no second to Buster, as he is known affectionately at Theta Delt, for his wide selection of females who have at one time or another dated him throughout his Hamilton career. . Buster has always been a conscientious worker, having achieved the position of House Manager by the end of his Sophomore year. In Cristian kindness, to all and every one, it's certainly difficult to find one to match him. A Of course, as happens to anyone, but especially to our friend Bus, there seem to be more than the usual occasions for a good time , and the entire house gets their fill of laughter with him. Buster, as well as his twelve gallon-to-the-mile hoodmobile , will be hard to replace. JAMES PEIRCE BROWN Lambda Chr Alpha Newtown C onnectzcnt Lacrosse 1, 2, 3, 4, Spectator 1, 2. After a slow start in the potato bin, Jim steamrolled his way to the Presidency via Skidmore, three years of Lacrosse, supporting intra-murals, and the Koffee Club An ever-present inclination to party has placed the inventor of the sour Sour Cwith a kickj in the unfortunate position of trying to explain to Ellen that he really works at college when she calls him at the Inn. Persuaded not to go to Law School, Captain Queeg now plans a June wedding and the easiest possible job in the Navy. ERWIN THURSTON BROWNE Emerson Literary Society Waterville New York McKinney Prize Speaking 2, Hamiltonian 3, 4, International Relations Club 1, 25 Biology Club 1, Friday Club 5, 4. Finally deciding -that weekends on the Hill possessed more subtle attractions than the garden spot of New York State, the white hope of Watewille has whizzed through his studies at Hamilton with no small measure of success and cunning. After completing his language requirement in one year he branched out into the educational field, proving himself a capable practice teacher as well as a mingler among the female townies. PIERRE HUNTLEY BROWNELL Spanish Club 3, 4. sails off on the voyage of life, guided only by the words Carpe Diem 27 Garden City New York Having at an early age read a Hemingway novel, Pete has, in all ways tried to emulate his favorite hero, Jake Barnes. Two summers at sea have given him the necessary sunburn and swagger, along with the essential alcoholic aura, acquired in gin joints in Mozambique Frenezique, Martinique, and Utica. Ther only' blot on his blissful boyhood has been his inability to find a Hemingway heroine to love in his hero's inimitable way And so Pete

ALBERT CHIAPPINELLI, Jr. Emerson Literary Society Mt. Kirco ' New York Satisfying the infinitely varied culinary tastes at E. Hall is an impossible job, but Al did it, and still had time for all the parties, and the Dean's List, too. Basically very sane, although malignantly influenced by the party boys, Chipper's sound judgement and good friendship helped out a lot at E.L.S. and the well-rounded as well as the cubes were equally in his debt. Chip got through the most demanding scholastic inquiries, but the Utica girls always remained an enigma, and with a backward sighing glance at the board- books and the belles, Chip heads for peace and security with Uncle Sam. ALFRED COLAS Sauquoit Hamilton College on the Air 1, 2, Camera Club 3, 4, Outing Club 3, 4, Debate Club 1. Almost unknown, even to those who knew him best, Al tried hard for a long time to mask his better qualities. He did this, fortunately without great success. Avowedly free- thinking and skeptical Cbut never un homme de joie despite incursions on the Butte and in Pigallel Al has found himself, as a consequence, thinking in increasingly religious terms. In law or the ministry or into whatever other area of endeavor Al ventures, he will take with him 'a critical and disputatious intellect. New York JAN KIMBLE CONKLIN Binghamton New York Camera Club 2, 3, 4, Secretary-treasurer 3, Biology Club 3, 4, Economics Club 3, 4. Anyone happening by the anatomy lab of the Science Building between 1 and 2 a.m. will have met this hard-working lad. Of course, the fact that he is charged room-rent for Root 26 is well known. In addition to stud ying, and occasionally appearing in the organic .lab Chitting 3 for 257, Jan worries about Oneonta. In fact, his preoccupation with Oneonta and guns would lead one to believe he is pre-Spillane, on the contrary, he plans to be a doctor, and, in spite of these paradoxes, will be a good one. JOEL SAUL CRONIN I Squires New York New York LV. Baseball 1, 2, Biology Club 3, 4g Outing Club 3, 43 German Club lg Glee Club 1. The only rut that was ever ascribed to him is one on route 5, which he made in yeoman like attempts to bring--, or so he insists, the light of intellectual peace to Syracuse. Whatever his attempts with peace were, he beyond doubt made many friends, and in spite of the fact that his friends cannot figure him fully out-his humor and leadership seem to spring from a never ending source of intelligence and capability--he shall ever be known for his feats with basketballs, German, cars, and people. Especially people, for someone is always sure to turn up who knows Joel and likes him. l 5 I 29 '
