And we refer only To his good deeds. When Mike enTered our ranks we aT once considered him as a young man who would spend Tour years sTudying and doing noThing else. BUT we were wrong. As soon as The Sophomores began To haze our classmaTes Mike broke loose. More Than one member oT The preceding graduaTing class will remember how Mike helped To keep The '32 banner umcurled. Our asTonishmenT was increased when we saw Mike answer The call Tor cross- counTry. LiTTle did any of us realize ThaT This acTiviTy was his TavoriTe hobby and now we congraTulaTe him, Tor he rode iT well. In The line of scholasTic endeavor Mike always mainTained a high rank. l-low- ever, The pomp and heraldry of noTorieTy Tinds no lure Tor him. l-lis quieT and unas- suming person wends iTs way wiTh unpreTenTious sTeps. ModesTy makes him a lime- lighT dodger. To a genTleman in every sense we bid adieu. And as we look beyond The haze of promised years we can readily visualize him Supremum apud homines, Tor he will prove as able and repuTable a leader as he has proved an earnesT and TaiThTul Triend.
