It was not long before he established himself i11 two fields: athletics and story-telling. Since that time he has retained a conspicuous place in both of these activities. During the winter months lap devoted his time to hockey-a sport which he loves and plays remarkably well. VVhen the New lersey spring hnally arrived, he turned his attention to tennis. Equally skillful at this popular game. Charlie has won maior letters in both sports. XVhile i11 Dickinson, lap was known as an able card, player, but since he became a member of the George. he has been perhaps the most expert of a quartet of experts and certainly the wealthiest. To tell of laps association with a well-known girl is in itself a story. To the sheltered or immature ear Charlie's variations of the Kings English might sound rather vulgarg but to an appreciative few, his extensive and highly special- ized vocabulary is a way by which he develops many unusual shades of meaning.
