Ray accompanies his roommate on many surveys and takes a few on his own. As captain of the baseball team he strives to keep Mr. Dickie in line. While everyone else is asleep Saturday morning. Ray is lining the baseball diamond. Ray is going to a foreign college, Texas Christian University. (It’s just west of Arizona—no one claims it, but what do you expect). It was a disappointment when Wellesley turned him down, but he lacked a couple of good points. As president of the Saturday morning breakfast-in-bed club, Ray was a complete flop—he went to chapel one morning and Britton kicked him out. (The president of the club is elected—no civil service exams!) We wish Ray all the luck at T.C.U., but watch out for those Texas girls.

Upon closer inspection we discover the name of Helen written over his books, his paper and his roommate. Kent came to us a little late in the Senior year, but in his short time he has left quite an impression on the school. He has been active in the debating society and dramatics club, but still finds time to put in a personal appearance on the baseball diamond. When not indulging in his favorite pastime, letter-writing, Kentie can be found reading or telling Mr. Creighton Clarke that he is not in the barnyard. Hoosac wishes Kent the best of luck in all his ambitions.

Any question about cars? If so, ask Mack! Mack is an authority on ignition switches, hub caps, windshields, carburetors, and even cigarette lighters! It was he who could be counted upon to fix the bus. The only, time Mack failed us was when it was time to smooth out a few fenders. Another subject Mack is conversant on is girls. If you don’t believe this, ask Anita. But the subject he knows most about is colleges. He has applied to many and has investigated still more. In addition to these interests he has become bookish and scholarly. In view of this, his career in college is assured. Bet of luck to you, Mack, in Siena.
