 Edward Benjamin Pedlow Ravenna Beta Theta Pi; Kappa Lambda Mu; Kappa Beta Phi; Philo.; Class Secretary (3); Hop Com- mittee (2); Dormitory Committee (2); Execu- tive Committee (2). Time was when “Peddie” persisted in playing (?) either a cornet or a ukulele, but it is fondly hoped that he has outgrown both. He has been susceptible to advanced chemistry for some time, but can dis- tinguish ethyl and methyl alcohol by the taste alone. He bids fair to follow in Carpenter's wandering footsteps. b John Lloyd Snook Troy Delta Kappa Epsilon; Nu Pi Kappa (1) (2) (3), President (3): Science Club (2) (3).

President-Elect Kenyon Assembly. Snort is a good-natured cuss, whose athletic ability and participation in nearly all college activi- ties, together with his loyal sense of duty to the College nave put him high on the ladder of popularity at Kenyon. As basket-ball manager he brought the team through a bad year in fine shape. Succeeded in creating the false impression among the faculty that he is a hard worker. Nevertheless, he is expected to take away a Key with him. Francis Wharton Weida Gambier Psi Upsilon; First Sophomore English Prize; Rifle Club (2) (3). Treasurer (3); Choir (2) (3); Glee Club (3): Tennis Manager (3): Lieutenant K. C. B. (3). Assistant slave driver to Captain Remv, profound student of military affairs, and general favorite at Harcourt since the arrival of his uniform. It is whispered that he even goes home between classes so that the institution at the west of the path may have ample opportunity to fully appreciate his mili- tary importance. But in spite, of this—someone must have inveigled him into it—Wharton “is there with the old stuff,” and up and coming all the time. Page thirty-three .

 Carter Smart Miller Bay City. Michigan Psi Upsilon: Rifle Club (1) (2) (3), President (3): Collegian Board (3): Editor (3); Choir (1) (3); Glee Club (3); Puff-and-Powder Club (l) (2) (3); Assistant Director (3): Class Secretary (2): Hop Committee (2); Property Manager (3): Execu- tive Committee (3); Dormitory Committee (2) (3); Football Manager-elect (3). Carter is a firm believer in being “distinctively individual.” But with it. his ability and willingness have made him a valuable man to have around. His spontaneous humor and ready wit are always on tap. and cleared for action. He has traded an awful red coat for a motorcycle, and when the wheels will stay on. and the engine will go, he spends his time in running down perambulators and running up gasoline bills. Yoshiharu Mineo Tokyo, Japan “Minnie” is no more satisfied to be at Kenyon than Kenyon is to have him. A keen student of matters fare over the ordinary college man’s head. Mineo has attracted a lot of respect, and his good humor and congeniality have made him well liked. Our hats are off to a man who can stand impregnable before “Tite’s” volleys. Robert James Murphy Williston, North Dakota Sigma Pi; Philo.: North Dakota Wesleyan (1) (2): Choir (3); Glee Club (3). Get it done” seems to be Bob’s” motto, yet why he did not act more quickly in coming to Kenyon from the West ought to be explained. Bob is quiet and reserved, and is not given to the disease of exces- sive loquacity. In this day of feverish excitement, such fellows are a pleasant relief. Pate Ihirty-tXLO

Aaron Burt Champion Rowe Cincinnati Psi Upsilon; Nu Pi Kappa: Foot-ball (2) (3). Track (2); Honor Committee (2) (3); Commons Com- mittee (3); Assistant Chemistry Lab. (3). ••Champ” became quite expert at finding the efficiency constant of a course: the least amount of work put in over the necessary amount of knowledge to pass it. He acted as a very capable nurse to the Babes in Chemistry 1. and seemed to be destined for the career of pedagogue, but the war call was too strong, and he has transferred his athletic ability to the service, where he will soon be gathering “straffed” Bodies to their forefathers. George Benjamin Schneider Hartland, Wisconsin Sigma Pi: Philo. (1) (2) (3): Rifle Club (2) (3): Executive Committee (3); Dormitory Com- mittee (3): Collegian Board, Junior Editor (3). Football (3). George likes electives, but he soon will have exhausted the supply, and will have to enroll in a few requireds. In spite of his title. “Schnapps,” he does lots of things around college. He makes the library desk his stronghold, and presides over the latest copy of Life with the full dignity of his posi- tion. Although football was a new field of conquest for him, ‘‘Schnapps went into the game this season and played like a veteran. Paul Fehr Seibold Mt. Vernon Nu Pi Kappa (3): Science Club (2) (3); Football (3); Basket-ball (3): Executive Committee (3); Dormitory Committee (3); Coach Committee (3). To pull the wool over “Gummy’s” eves requires no little skill: but “the monkey”'has it in the re- quired amount, and so succeeds in getting awav nicely in Mathematics 6. Monk acquired great notoriety when he lead his cohorts against Hanna Hall in the big fight of the year, and met with such gratifying results that he has maintained a consistent record as “chief disturber of the peace ” The murder ,S Wanted by GeorSe Brain for attempted Page thirty-four
