Fred Baily’s a middy so gay; Sends wireless notes all the day; He looks awful cute In his sailor boy’s suit, But of “sparking” has nothing to say. GRACE BARBER Linden, Maryland. Gracie has a little lamb, And comes with her to school, And, strange to say, no one objects, Nor does it break the rule. CLAIRE C.

BIOGRAPHIES NALLS BERRYMAN 4o Chestnut St, Takoma Park, D. C. Wireless Club, °17; Chemistry Club, '17. We here have our world renowned Nalls, Who's as quiet as a mouse in the halls. His taste scientific Is something terrific, So he seldom has time to make calls GEORGE BISSET 3301 Lowell St., N. W. Cadets, ‘14, 15, 16, 17; Captain Co. D, ’17; G. O, Council, 16; Agora Critic, ’17, George Bisset is a captain bold, Tis said his feet are never cold, He’s often seen, With a girl serene, Yet on his heart he keeps a hold. DUPONT C. BOMAR Business Manager Tech Life, '17; Tennis Club, 16, 17. “Dumps” Bomar’s a westerner tight, He’s always prepared for a fight; Even carries two guns.

Club, 17: Wirt Borland thinks he is a killer And the vest that he wore was a thriller; But in spite of all that He’s a trifle too fat; Maybe that’s why he ne’er was a driller. HARRY LEVERING BOSLEY Cadets, ’12, 13; Section President, '17. The Bosley in hist'ry doth shine, Ilis stalls are e’en better than mine; But we like him the same, Tho’ his “ponies are lame,” When he Jeaves he will murmur and whine.
