QUR years ago rumor wenf around fhaf fhe college had purchased a door for fhe archway, buf fhis was falsified when fhe reason for fhe darkening of fhe enfrance was found fo be none ofher fhan a newly-arrived freshman. Upon closer observafion many remarked upon fhe facf fhaf fhey had seen fhis huge young man some place buf fhey could nof recall where. All of a sudden if dawned on one of fhe observers fhaf he was one of Broadway's admirals, or in ofher words, one of fhe besf known and mosf esfeemed barkers on fhe Whife Way. Upon approach- ing fhis young gianf we found an easy acquainfance, one who would make a greaf friend, sold on fhe idea of becoming a medical man. Nof only was fhis freshman very worldly wise, due of course, fo his daily confacfs, buf also a firsf class phofo- graphic biologisf. l-le worked hard in an enviable uniform and besides was a sfudenf wifh scholasfic sfanding above fhe average. We can'f say whefher if was fhe uniform or fhe personalify, buf we are inclined fo believe if was fhe laffer which broughf so many fair admirers fo fhe porfals of fhe Asfor Theafre. All of us wish you fhe besf of luck, Julius, for we know men of your characfer can never be failures. 47
