His middle name, as popularly pronounced, is aptly de- scriptive of this chubby lad who hails from the wilds of Bronxville. If you don't believe us, ask-oh, well, you tell'em, Bob. Bob's incoming daily mail interferes somewhat with his duties as corporal of the rough-neck squad. When not striving to put Monk under the bed, he is busily perusing the scented hieroglyphics of some demure young thing, who is trustfully awaiting the return of our hero. Never mind, Bob, we all envy you. The best of luck in your numerous affairs. We shall all miss your cheerful grin, and can easily understand why it is that the Misses miss vou. l H. N.

Baltimore for its oysters, but for you, Nels, the esteem of the entire battalion. Your smiling face has cheered us all, and your driving of a certain Buick roadster has taxed the patience of the Syracuse motorcycle squad. You may not believe in signs, but it always pays to heed the 4'Please drive carefully through this town warning. You should carry a large supply of cigars when motoring. It is our firm belief that H. Nelson will, ere long, publish a revised edition of the I. D. R. which he has so carefully memorized. He often entrances his hearers by quoting long passages from this classic. Ask him anylpointDcolrQcerning infantry drill and he will tell you the page and line on which it is found in tie . . . Nels' motto is: Live and Let Live , and if still waters run deep, he certainly is bottomless. Sh-h-h, don't forget his hair-that elusive curliness that simply drives all members of the weaker sex to desperation.

XVe don't know the reason, but we do know he wasn't bashful among the ladies, and that he is a Bridge fiend of renowned ability, which can be verified by our famous Bridge and Golf hound-H. C. D. Come on, First Sergeant, open up, let's bear something of yourself told by yourself, don't make us hunt forever to dig up information. YVe wish you great success and just wait for the day, because we all know what's in you. joux GR.-xxr B.-twat.-xx Syracuse, New York P '2o-'21, Band Leader, '21-'22.

Of course, our Grant has not yet attained the fame of john Philip, but, speaking from an unbiassed view point, we believe that Grant will some day become the leader of a band of super-instrumentalists. YVhen it comes to acknowledging the plaudits of a highly enthusi- astic audience, llayerian can summon to the fore all the dignity of a Casey Ball, or all the stately grace of a ballet dancer. VVe have you to thank for the splendid band this year and we all appreciate your untiring efforts. 6- sk '

Butts, when not driving a Ma1'mon speedster, hails from the Parlor City. VVe understand that his fame extends to many of the best parlors in Binghamton. He is a soci- able fellow and if talk were water we would all be living in house boats and diving down two or three miles to find our old homes. But one thing about Payson, it doesn't worry him if he hasn't an interested audience at all, because he amuses himself in this way. However, any of his friends who have a week with nothing to do should just go over and ask him what he thinks about the price of eggs in China. Butts is the soul of generosity, BUT one hundred cold l dollars really seems a bit high for denting the stern of a mere Ford touring car. You'll be at Syracuse next year, Butts, drive carefully, for it will be seven long years before the red cross of the medico protects you from the long arm of the law.

Abie blew in from the VVindy City and now we are sorry he's left. No one would ever say that jack Cary ever did things with Hashes of meteoric brilliancy. That isn't his style. However, when things were being done you usually found Cary some place as one of the main springs that kept the works going. There was hardly an activity in which he did not have a share at the managerial end. You have fallen short in only one respect,-we never could understand why you picked a girl called Piggy . As for his theories on the ever tender subject,-they are as the grains of sand on a beach But don't forget, Abie, that true love resembles an elevator, a lot of ups and downs, and the trick is to stop at the right floor.
