EFORE coming fo lvlanhaffan, Prexy covered himself wifh glory as an honor I sfudenf af La Salle lnsfifufe, Troy, N. Y. This was due, in fhe general opinion of his classmafes, fo fhe facf fhaf he was a nafive of Vermonf, whence came anofher illusfrious man, namely, Calvin Coolidge. During fhe firsf fwo years of college life, Prexy devofed himself enfirely fo his sfudies and firmly esfablished himself among fhe infellecfual leaders of his class. The following year, however, he realized fhaf a real lvlanhaffan man was one who was willing fo devofe some of his fime fo fhe promofion of fhe name of Alma Mafer. Consequenfly, he joined fhe Quadrangle Board and fhe Hayes Dramafic Sociefy, and as a coup-de-grace, he was awarded fhe highesf posifion in fhe sfudenf body, namely, Presidenf of fhe Sfudenf Council. Prexy is perhaps fhe mosf collegiafe man in fhe class. Quief and dignified, he held a sfrong claim on fhe respecf and friendship of his classmafes. l-lis opinions on how fhings should be done were always heeded by us fo our benefif. Prexy will confinue his pursuif of knowledge af law school. lvlanhaffan bids him farewell and we hope success affends his fufure. 99
