He has made the most of his time by entering into as many athletic and extra-curricular activities as studies would permit. Probably one of the best natural athletes Lawrence- ville has had in years. Long has done his utmost to put his abilities to the best possible use. However, Long is not only an athlete but an allhround grand fellow. as shown by his election to a directorship of Upper, although he is a resident of the George House. He is now serving as president of that house. Long was a great asset this year on the football team where he played center and backed up the line superbly. After he was awarded his maior L in this sport. he went out for basketball, where he had been elected co-captain by virtue of his value to last year's ICLIID, to lead what is probably Lawrenceville's greatest basketball team in years. He also Won a letter in tennis last year. and is expected to repeat. Long has also been in the Choir and Glee Club for two years. Continued success will surely be his. One Hzuzdrfd Six
