AVIN6 spenf four evenfful years af lvlanhaffan, I-luberf has acquired an exfraor- dinary grasp of fhe principles of archifecfure. To really appreciafe his abilify one musf know him infimafely and be associafed wifh him as only his own classmafes have. Looking af fhe ofher side of 'I-lu's life we find he does nof spend all his fime bending over a draffing-board. On Friday affernoons, af fhe complefion of fhe week's work, we see him hasfily preparing for a week-end frip, usually several hundred miles from Jasperville. We never found ouf exacfly whaf fhe week-end affracfion mighf be, buf mosf of us have now reached a conclusion fhaf is nof hard for anyone fo arrive af. Alfhough finding liffle fime fo parficipafe in afhlefics, I-lu has always given whole-hearfed supporf fo fhe Jasper feams. I-lis is a well-known figure af all fhe games, no maffer how far afield. I-lis hobby is fasf driving and as a consequence he holds all speed records befween Providence and Manhaffan. I-laving been vofed fhe Besf Archifecfn in his class we feel confidenf fhaf I-lu will rise fo similar fame af Sf. l.uke's in Ghenf where he infends fo confinue his sfudies. 202 0 7 wer fhe cam nof even Gel him We which on Qllddran Hllesf All Gen.

Bill Bronx, N. Y. Archileclural Sociely l, 2, 3, 4. ILL is one ol lhe youngesl members ol lhe gradualing class. l-le has always been lhe ideal sludenl-guiel, modesl, capable and induslrious. Temporarily deserling his characler, Bill allained considerable noloriely, when a lreshman, by praclicing on his lrumpel in lhe old locker room. Bul evenlually he lurned his energies lo more worlhwhile and charilable endeavors. The whole inci- denl, now no longer a painlul realily, is lenderly relegaled lo lhe calegory ol pleasanl memories. All ol BiII's weaknesses are marilime. l-lis sailboal is lhe obiecl ol mosl ol his pride, devolion and energy. Almosl any week-end he can be seen proudly and dexlrously manipulaling her iusl oll Long lsland Sound. Ol course, all associaled aclivilies are likewise indulged in promiscuously. Swimming, rowing, lishing and hunling have become as inlegrally a parl ol him as his innale love ol lhe sea. To avoid any erroneous impressions il musl be emphalically slaled lhal Bill's class aclivilies were nol enlirely divorced lrom lhe more genleel occupalionsg lerpsichorean, arlislic, elc. Bill's lield is archileclure. And il we are lo lake lhe word ol lhose who oughl lo know, his nalural gills in lhal direclion, coupled wilh his general characlerislics already specilied, desline him lo go a long way in his chosen lield. 2Ol i

Eugene J. Simons, A.l3. Gene New York Cify Fooflighfers Dramafic Sociefy I, 2: Hayes Dramafic Sociefy 3, 4, Debafing Sociefy 2, 3, 4. G you, dear reader, fhe above phofo is nof fhaf of Paul Whifeman. We, foo, were deceived when we firsf feasfed our eyes upon Gene as he saunfered abouf fhe campus on regisfrafion day four years ago. As he himself offen declared, he is nof even a relafive of fhe music maesfro. Gene came fo us direcf from Manhaffan Prep. In fhe four years we have known him we have found him a polished genfleman possessing all fhe higher qualifies which one would expecf fo find in a fypical Brofhers' boy. We musf recall fhe Quadrangle selecfions for fhe various posifions in fhe Senior Poll. lf chose Gene as Besf All-around Man and we righfly believe he deserved if. Gene's favorife diversions are in fhe fields of dramafics and debafe. l-le was one of fhe young men responsible fo a greaf exfenf for organizing fhe Freshman dramafic sociefy-fhe Fooflighfers. ln forensic circles he is equally prominenf. ln a debafe wifh a neighboring college fhis year, Gene was uniusfly accused of using fhe expression, God save fhe working girl. Since fhaf fime he has been fhe buff for many supposedly humorous remarks from his classmafes. l-lowever, being a faifh- ful member of fhe B. S. O. A. lifroop Bl, he fakes fhem in fhe righf way. As a lasf word, Gene, lef us wish you happy days. 203
