19: 3r RECORD Clti CONRAD BEREXS ACTON Salem, N. J. Born, Salem, N. J., 1902 Cricket (1, 2); Scientific Society (1, 2, 3, 4); Historian for The Record; Chemistry Club; Pre-Medical Club; 1925 Debating Society. ' fX 7 E ALL have our ambitions, and Con ' s is to become a medical mail carrier. ' No doubt, after one of his female followers has once hooked him, he will still be more eager to get the mail before anyone else. The most astounding bull sessions in center have been the result of our attempts to solve the ethical problems compovmded by the wife of the Dog. And, speaking of ethics, Rufus is still trying to puzzle out whether One makes chairs to get skill, or gets skill to make chairs. Conrad always has plenty of weapons lying around, but they never did anyone any good until Lord (mighty in battle) used them very successfully against the Class of ' 26, who were trying to disturb his rest. One of the sjjots dear to his heart was the realm ruled jointly by Jiramie Babbit and Miss Beard. There Conrad poked our insides and peered down our throats to his evident gratification. But the finest sight of all is to see Con, with his radiant blush and all snaked up, on his way to a date with a red-hot mamma. -•Oi Con Acton Does anybody want anything in Haverford?

W !2S . UECOViD 3 ERIC GLENDENNING BALL 400.5 GKOVEL.VND Avenue Baltimore, Mn. Born, Coventry, England, 1004 Junior Varsity Soccer (3); Menil)or Penn State Champion Team (4); Varsity Soccer (4), H (4); Track Team (2, 3, 4); Cross- country Team (3); Manager of Basketball (4), H (4) ; Athletic Cabinet (4) ; Scientific Society (1, 2, 3, 4); Chemistry Club (4); Splinter on Scarlet Board (4) ; Senior Day Committee; President, Baltimore Club (4). ERIC is one of the most far-sighted individuals in the class. Three years ago he saw a notice to the effect that those wishing to manage the basketball team should sign below, and immediately he began to plan a few week-end trips. He signed, and gradually })assed through, the stages of an embryo manager, or, as Pratt would say, his ontogeny was a brief recapitulation of the development of ba.sketball managers. The final result was the attainment of the manager ' s job, and the development of a schedule with three games in New York City. There is a great attraction about the big city which may not be connected with ba.sketball. Eric manages to get back to college three days after his de]iarture, but even then he finds it hard breaking away. The first of these memorable week-ends was responsible for the visit of some of his associates to the Dean in order to have the rumor of his elopement investigated. It was unnecessary to put detectives on his trail, however, as half an hour later he showed up indignantly denying all rumors. Erick Don ' t shake my desk! ' As merry as the day is long.
