rll Edward Okuloski HAMILTON Mathematics Option Smiling Ted came from Central in '39 to mystify himself with Mathematics. A versatile performer, he excelled in tennis and badminton. This par- ticular skill was an outgrowth of long experience as a C.S.L. waiter. To do him justice, any story about him must necessarily be a tall one: at least six feet five. We do, how- ever, predict success at either Brockville or Osgoode. Ruth Caroline Oliver HAMILTON English Option Ruth came to McMaster from Central Collegiate, Hamilton. Became Sophomore Vice-President and mem- ber of the Women's Choir. She swam to glory for two years, held membership in the Modern Lit. Club, and the office of Women's Student Body Vice-President.

She ban- ished the few moments which did remain for study with I can't study . . . l'm not in the mood, but has a remarkable capacity for work at the right moment. Her college career may be described as per- fect, since she has managed to con- tribute much to Mac, to maintain a good scholastic record and to spare much valuable executive experience as Women's Debating Society Presi- dent and B. of P. Secretary. After four years at Mac, Iean still firmly believes in co-education. lN ARTS Harold Paikin HAMILTON Science Option Harold swears he came to Mac to glean a few crumbs of knowledge.

He will be kept on the faculty as entertainer-in- chief of undergraduates to come. He will always find his job waiting for him on the S.S. Noronic. Dennis Craven Wood Ord BRANTFORD Honour Science Denny came to Mac by way of Appleby, U.C.C., and Brantford C.l. His happy-go-lucky manner and his ability to take a ribbing in the best of humour won him many lasting friends. Was boxing champ ill.
