THOMAS STOTHART CROSKEY 820 Pennstone Rd., Bryn Mawr, Pa. Entered 1942 Tom came to Haverford in the fall of 1942, and, as he puts it, went into intellectual training.f' He has done a lot more than learn his lessons since the year he entered. He has been outstanding as an athlete and as a participant in extra-curricular activities. Croakie the athlete excells in football and track. And Croakie the active student is among other things Business Manager of the Haligolulc. Recognized as a boy of great ability, Tom was elected Vice-President of the Filth Form last year. This red-haired Haverlordian is a socialite also. He vows that with wtTomf, i the exception of red-hot intra-mural basketball games, big discussions in , the lunch room, and weekly meetings of the Current Events Club, he thinks the best things at Haverford are its dances. The last word here about Tom must be ones of cheerful prophesy, for he certainly will go tar in the world with his natural ability. Current Events Club V Spanish Club Pres.

Sefior Robert Drew-Bear, Secretary-Treasurer ot the Senior Class, member ot the Signet Honor Society, and President of the Glee Club, entered the School eight years ago. He did not know much English at the time, and how much he knows now is sometimes questionable. Bob has enjoyed his last two school years very much. He will tell you that he has continually been between heaven and geometry session. He also says that if college food is as good as Oaks tood, his college life will be enjoyable. The Seiior has been outstanding in athletics for several years and is known for his achievements in swimming, football, and baseball. He was on the All-Interac Football team this year. The Glee Club must be mentioned in connection with Bob. He has sung with this organization since the Third Form and was made President this year. He has also been in the Three-Pours his last two years. Haverford has benelitted from Bob's stay, and he can be counted on to do as well elsewhere as he has done here. 15

Entered 1936 After entering Haverford in 1935, Bill Christie went away to school in 1940. Six years later, a grown-up man in a smartly tailored double- breasted suit drove up in a car and re-entered Haverford. This year, the same man entered, but the double-breasted suit had been taken in about six feet. This trim figure soon became known as Slim to all the boys, who voted him the best dressed in the Class Poll. Bill's favorite memories are his spectacular football career, account and demerit sessions under Mr. Shaw and Mr. Shafer respectively, and the meetings of the various teams in the basement at tirst recess. His one hope is that next year's football team will beat the daylights out of Episcopal. The color that Bill has lent to Haverford will probably go to the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania next fall, where he plans to enter the Wharton School. When he graduates from there, he will be found hauling bones around the Quaker City Motor Parts Company, which he eventually will head. We all wish him the best of luck and happiness! fl EDWARD AUGUSTUS CHASTENEY, 3rd Ted 332 Oak Terrace, Wayne, Pa. Entered 1944 To write 170 words about Ted Chasteney and his activities is almost impossible, for they are too numerous. Ted came to Haverford School in the fall of 1944 and entered the Third Form. Three weeks after'his ar- rival, he was elected Class Secretary, and since then, he has risen to the post of Class President, an office which he has held for the past three years. Ted's school activities are listed under his picture. Probably his greatest achievement was becoming President of the Signet Society. He was Business Manager of the Dramatic Club and Chairman of the Student Council. On the athletic fields, Ted was a tackle on the football team and was awarded the Eggleston Trophy for outstanding achievement. He swam a fast hundred for the swimming team, and played baseball this spring. There is no doubt in anyone's mind that Ted Chasteney has been a great asset to the school, and wherever he goes, he will always suc- ceed and continue to be remembered by the students and faculty of Haverford.

Current Events Club VI Polemics Club IV Squash H VI Basketball IV, V, H VI Baseball H V, VI IOHN LEWIS EVANS, II Lou Villanova, Pa. Entered 1935 It seems as if Lou is a fixture around the school. He has been here since 1935, a mighty long time when you stop to consider. From 1935 to 1948 the span is thirteen years. It is supposed to take the normal mind twelve years to mature, but Lou fooled everyone and started in Pre-School. Although Iohn is known to have broken combs trying to unscramble his curly locks, they are usually covered by a baseball hat. He shines on the baseball field, where he can be seen warming up as soon as the squash season is over. His stellar pitching has brought the team through many a game the last two years. The poker lace of Long Shot Lou has brought many a cheer from the gallery during the basketball games. The set shots for which he is famous have given him his never-to-be-forgotten nickname. Aside from the tact that Iohn has never learned how to park a car, nothing much can be said against him. If he is as successful in the busi- ness world as he has been here at Haverford, he will undoubtedly end up on the top.

Entered 1946 Haverford was graced by Ed's smiling face in the Fifth Form, the year he arrived from Lower Merion. His main impression of the School was that the demerit system was entirely unnecessary and that something should be done about it. This investigation only led to trouble concerning the Yellow Sheet, so it was dropped. Aside irom languishing in the Big Room every Saturday morning, Ed has spent his time with the varsity football team and his Lincoln. These two things are mentioned together because when the football season was over, Ed spent most of his time on the car. His smiling face is seen at every dance with his date for the encounter. lf a new hotel is unveiled in Philadelphia in the near future, there will be many who will not be surprised to see Ed in the manager's office, for he plans to study Hotel Administration at college next fall. 16
