SAMUEL LIPPINCOTT BORTON, II tawny tarn, R . D . I , N O R R I S T O W N , PA. AS a member of the String Quartet and as a soloist at musicales, 1 have made mvself known as a violinist. Haunting now the Union garret and now the dismal backstage in Roberts, I may be seen at any time diligently practicing. But life is not all music for me. Smoking potent pipes in the Grad House, playing tennis with decorum, Ardmore at midnight, and tea with sugar dainties everv afternoon at four, furnish commonplace diversions. Frequent changes of residence have characterized my life as an undergraduate: one year away, another as a dav student and an under- graduate in the Grad House, and my Senior year divided between Founders and Sophomore-infested South Barclay. I was born on Julv lo, 1915, and entered Haverford from the William Penn Charter School in 19: 1. 1 majored in French. My activities included: Corporation Scholarship i, 1; Student Musicale 4. 5

ROBERT CLARKE BONE, Jr. 413 WEST UNION STREET, WEST CHESTER, PA I AM your most whole-hearted partisan. Rhinie year I was a Roosevelt Democrat, and pictures of the Great Man adorned my room. Then one night they disappeared, and I announced myself a Republican. Sophomore year I was the campus ' s most distinguished Fascist, and by 1936 Marx had received me into his stern bosom. I have hesitated to embrace the Prohibitionist party, though there is nothing in mv private life that would prevent my doing so. To cap my paradoxical career, I won the prize in 1936 for the best essay on peace; in 1937 I did my best to become a soldier. At some future date I might even decide to preach Baptism among the Eskimos. I was born March 18, 1916, and entered from Westtown. I ma- jored in Sociology while at college, and my activities included: The Everett Society Medal 1; the Samuel P. Lippincott Prize x; the Eliza- beth P. Smith Prize 3. [M

THOMAS KITE BROWN, III T-T-G DICKINSON AVENUE, SWARTHMORE, PA IF I don ' t succeed as a professor, I can always fall back on some nice safe occupation like horse-trading. My willingness to barter anything from razors to radios was equalled only by my eagerness to participate in g-mes of ch-nce. Freshman year I spent at Penn. They didn ' t appreciate me, I declared modestly, so: Sophomore year I moved into Merion Hall, and sampled its varied amusements. The gypsy in me was not to be suppressed, however, and: Junior year I studied in Munich . . . Senior year was passed in the upper reaches of Founders with a copy of Ulysses, a. deck of cards, and a phenomenal streak of luck. The result was an A-average. I was born November lo, 1916, and prepared at Westtown School. I entered in 1934 from the University of Pennsylvania, spent my Junior year in Germany, and majored in German. My activities included: Haverfordian 4; Hibbard Garrett Memorial Prize for Verse 2.. [x6]
