J. G. B. — The pride of the class, held out to all of us as a model man. Ben shocked everyone the other day by wearing a pink shirt. The class poet gazed upon it, and recited the little ditty, “In the spring a 3 oung man’s fancj ” etc. We hope it is not anything serious, Joe. M. F. D. — The modern Cicero; he can’t be stumped in debating; is ery good at repartee, not mentioning other things. Michael’s smile has won him an endless chain of friends. The only “Freshie” that has been admitted this ear to “the ounger set.” G. F. E. — When Halethorpe gave George to us, we’ll say they lost something. You would claim him to be an Athenian from his trans- lation of the Attic Medium. Between his Greek and Mathematics, “Country” will undoubtedly land the position as bookkeeper for a well, ask someone in the Analytical Class. L. F. G. — Leo, the “Jack of all trades,” as far as lessons are con- ceited; for he handles everything from Languages to Mathematics with the same apparent ease. Alwa s ready to lend a helping hand. A charming fellow whom you would be pleased to meet. G. B. G. — Among George’s many accomplishments there are two which overshadow all others. He has surmounted the difficulties of the classroom in the same manner that a giant ocean liner rides the boisterous waves of the deep; and he has climbed the ladder of social success with the ease of a Chesterfield. As a tribute to his executive ability he was appointed chairman of the Committee of Affairs of the Class. — E. DeF. B. J. A. K. — Another athlete of whom we are proud. Joe has repre- sented Loyola both on the diamond and on the basketball floor. More than once when defeat seemed inevitable, he turned the tables by a brilliant play, saving the “Gold and Blue” from being trampled in the dust. C. L. K. — “A little nonsense now and then is relished by the best of men.” Charles, the humorous end of the class, keeps all in good spirits. The first thing he’ll say is, “No, not the kind of ‘spirits’ you are thinking of.” A cheerful companion, and a good looker, although you would never think so from his picture. Sometimes leads the class. J. M. K. — One of the members of the “Old Ladies’ Society.” But there really is’nt any old maidishness about Maurice, for he is a leader both in and out of class. An ardent sponser of all Class and school activities. The kind of fellow the college is proud of and would wish to have more like him. 18

Carroll Read. — Coming from the rarefied atmosphere of Catonsville, we are inclined to wonder at the basic reaction of “Senator” Read’s voice; but if we wonder at his voice, we arc astounded at the case with which he dissolves the most involved Horatian Odes into the English of a Newman. Frequently seen in the neighborhood of Norlli Calvert street, and reported to be a perfect Charlotte on the ice. William Sweeney. — There is no need to speak of Rill’s athletic attain- ments for he is known to all who read the daily papers as the last word in basketball ability, and a star of the greatest magnitude on the tennis court. As secretary of the Debating Society, however, and by his excellence in class work, he shows himself to be a scholar of distinc- tion. If we didn’t think it would shock his modesty, we would say that Bill is a dandy chap to know. Ferdinand Sybert. — By this time he has more than overcome any prejudices which miglit have grown out of the fact that “Cy” commutes from the “wilds” every day. His scholarly accomplishments are jiro- vcrbial, for his name is to the Honor Roll what the date is to the news- jiapers. He was badly missed when lie retired from active life for some weeks during the school year. Edward Tewey. — A amng man of unusual meditative powers. So deep is his concentration that it is sometimes with the greatest diffi- culty that we can bring him back to a consciousness of surrounding objects. We are all wating anxiously for the day when Eddie will startle the world by publishing tlie fruit of liis musings. Joseph M. Nellioan. D. G. B.- Not only leads the esteemed Freshman Class alphabeti- cally. hut also in many other respects. His ([uiet, demure manner has made him not only a favorite among his classmates, but of the entire student body. G. W. B. — Very tall — one may well call him the “Daddy Long Legs” of Loyola. Basketball star and allround athlete. A very inte resting and convincing talker. All who know Jerry will agree that he is a promising leader among men. E. DeF. B. — Edward’s greatest characteristic is perseverance. Dur- ing his five years at Loyola he never has been known to let up on any task assigned him, and he impresses that fact upon us when the day for honors comes around. Edward’s gain this year does not happen to be only knowledge. 17

C. G. K. — The gentleman from “Sleepy Hollow” (Mt. Washington). His motto is, “Take it slow and easy.” But no matter how slow he takes things, Carroll always gets what he goes after. His interpreta- tions of “Hecuba” would make Euripides see the green-eyed monster. Never mind, Carroll, he is not the only one who envies you. J. J. L. — “Fah ' and Warmer.” No, tall and fair is Julius. He has all the qualities and characteristics of his famous and illustrious ancestor whose name he bears. Tbis indicates that he will be one of our future statesmen. F. K. M. — Behold the rosy-cheeked Adonis, elected Beadle and treasurer. 0 yes; we envy his handsome looks and his ability, but he also has our sympathy on dues’ day. Collecting seems to be the only difficulties he has; for he excells in everything else. A brilliant star in Mathematics. In fact, Frank says he is sure of landing that “Book- keeper’s Job.” J. G. O’N. — The honorable Class President i roved his executive ability by holding office the two terms. Jimmy has so many good qualities that all can not be mentioned in this small space. The most outstanding of all is his ever genial disposition that has made him a favorite of the students and faculty. A. W. W. — Don’t mistake Adam’s initials for “I. W- W.” He really has’nt any Bolshevik tendencies, although he made it known the other day that he was his own master. Adam i roves his scholai’ship by results, and can read Latin and Greek as though it were his mother tongue. — George B. Gibson, ’23. 19
