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

Xpjil UM V, '011NoA 0' Q- '700l'J0lKY5'S, Mosr ot Philhert's lite consists of reading and arguing. XVe definitely know that he started arguing when he was in Lower School where tor two straight years he was on the Ross championship debating team. That was IIOI his only Lower School accom- plishment. however. for he also was an editor on the Lower School Rgcormuit. the vice-president of his house, and the winner of the First Form Essay Prize. ln Dawes he added much to his extra-curricular activity list. He made the Periwig Cluli after working on l0lH'lZCJvl f End and in The Royal! Filllll-fl. the lol, lowing year going on to help direct and supervise the production of one-act plays. I. P. alo went out for the LIT at this point. later being elected circulation man- ager for Iogjbvgbs. Iohn has read almost as many lioolis as any boy now in School. And so. quite naturally, he was elected to the Hililiophiles Club. The unolitrusiye Philhert has indeed made a so'id record. And any time you want to argue ahout the New York theater, the presence of a divinity. the possiliility ot war's eyer being eliminated. or something good and meaty, go and look up Phillwert.
