Carl has been with us but one short year but has been popular ever since he hrst arrived. He was always active and could be counted in on everything from hard work to amusement. By his work on the company teams he gained for himself a fair reputation in the intra- mural line. Then, too, his banjo was always humming out a few hot numbers whenever he had a few spare moments. Top this all off with an extreme good nature and you can understand why he was liked by everybody. NVe are sorry to lose him for his stories of his escapades in dear old lVIiddletown have enthralled all of us. He leaves us with each of us desiring to imitate his easy and successful career at Manlius. nn,3,:J:4-R was env jonx HIQNRY TATOR Dowf'ADowie Cobleskill, N. Y.

Dowie is one of those unassuming chaps who do excellent work along varied lines without calling attention to themselves or ever getting obtrusively into the limelight. In his one year with us he gave us all that he had and we found it good and sufhcient. He real- ized that everyone can not be a varsity star so he devoted his spare time toward helping his company on the Intramural schedule. When it wasn't that, he took special delight in training for work with the XYhite studios or maybe Hollywood with his trusty camera. We found him loyal and generous as a pal and we bid him farewell with un- qualified regret.

Ike must have been a direct descendant of Paul Revere. At any rate, that distinguished night-rider could not have spent any more time on horseback than did our own Ike, He swung so mean a mallet on the polo team that, now that he is gone, they have already begun to tear down the stahles because everyone knows that there will never he another like him. And, oh yes, he spent some time in the roof-garden. antigua.
