He feels keenly and understands quickly: perhaps that is why he is quiet and zi little hitter. But he has plenty of the old jeff dc' zfzizfreug so in spite of his own assertions, he can't be 11 skeptic. If the judgment of others goes for any- thing. if loyal friends mean 11 loyal person, then George can he proud. But he is so modest that it would he hard to inflate him. Only by accident we discovered that he painted well -with a deal of freshness and originality ahout his work. ln music George is more of a paradox. Everyone knows his appreciation of opera :ind symphony. but his preference one minute for Wtigner and vigor, the next for Chopin and sentiment is unusual. Prohnhly it is all a cyclic rotation that changes with Georges particular mood :ind fancy. George is also gifted as a literary critic. His ability to comprehend and discuss ohscure poetical works is envied hy us till. Even Brownings Rabbi' Ben Ezra is easy for him. One can't make tiny predictions for George. He might he anything, and that is a liig compliment. One Hzmdred Tzvwzfy-l1z'0

Former HBE.-XIQTY is only skin deep, they say, but not so in this case. Handsome Hugh is as line a friend as can be found in Lawrenceville. Add to this friendliness a rare executive ability and you realize how naturally he has been selected for responsible positions. Last year he governed Dawes House, and for the past Periwig Club. Besides being president of the latter, Hugh is the engineer who constructs the stage sets. He and his assistants work feverishly for the last few days before every performanceg then retire and try to revive sufficiently to witness the triumph of their handiwork. This winter's Periwig production gave Hugh far more trouble than any other. The club had a problem- not solved until the last minute-overcoming certain technicalities before it could produce Buflzelor Born. It had to have High Tor prepared in case of a change. Hugh therefore had to construct two sets, and that of High Tor required a steam shovel. The contrivance was a tough iob, but Hugh finished it just before the play was definitely set aside. Fortunately the club used T., ls, . . , 'W the set later when High Tw' was presented in the X sf V. - i 'X spring. One Hzuzdred Tzzfcflzty-four two years he has headed the x
