VVherever there's a difficult job to be done a call for Cushing is always heard, and the problem is usually solved. A member of the News Board, the Folio Board, and the Sigillurn Board, Cushing is kept constantly busy writing about the school and keeping the exchanges in order. How- ever he has found time to take part in prac- tically all the plays which the Dramatic Club has presented in the past three years and has been a member of the Glee Club. For the last two years Cushing has displayed his athletic ability on the basketball Floor, and this year he captained the lightweight team. In spite of these outside interests Cushing has had the scholastic award for four con- secutive years, and last year he was presented with the Harvard Club Award. His capabil- ity, extending to all fields, speaks for itself.

Ira returned to us last year as a junior after spending two years away from Latin in New Mexico. The last two years have found him extremely active. In I937 he was one of the leaders in a movement for a tennis team and upon its creation proved to be the backbone of a successful squad. Ira was an excellent Romeo in the Glee Club's operetta last year and has also been active in the Dramatic Club. In fact, his interest in the latter has developed so far that he intends to study drama in the east this summer. He is sure to be a success at Northwestern.
