Keith A. Lounsbury SMITHVILLE. ONT. Honour Chemistry and Physics Neither a scab nor a scatter- brain, Keith has achieved no colour- less compromise, but rather, a re- freshing norm. Although his pro- portioned temperament has prevent- ed him from extremely angular con- centrations of interest, he has con- tributed more than his share of genuine cheerfulness and sincerity to the frigidly impersonal plateaus of higher learning in Hamilton Hall. On the same even keel he faces future research. William Cassels Lyne HAMILTON Honour Chemistry and Physics Wee Willie has gone through Mac fand several frosh pinsl proud- ly wearing his Central Collegiate ring. A good Course 40 man, Willie specialized in bridge, Freshman Chemistry, inter-year football, Science Club, C.I.C., M.S.P.L., Llama Herder's Association and Out- side Rep. to the Men's Student Body. tWe're still trying to find out what that is.l His future plans in- clude metallurgyg his expectations at present are bachelorhood. His academic promise, coupled with his amazing ability to discuss fami- cably or otherwisel anything or everything, should carry him far. Best of luck, VVill! May your future give you all the good things you deserve. Robert Wright Slater HAMILTON Honour Chemistry and PhySiCS Hopping to Mac from old H.C.C.I. on a Steel Co. Scholarship, I3ob sampled a year of Pre-Engineering. When the light dawned, an assist- antship there was exchanged for the weird and wonderful ways of the Course 40 boys whom he led as Vice-Pres. of the C.I.C. Such sterling organizations as M.S.P.L., Llama Herder's Union, and Les Iouers de Pont Club claimed his active membership. Posterity will remember him for Ill his periodic fluctuations from women-loving to women-hating land the simultan- eous cycles in mustache growthl. 12, his indifference to prescribed courses and yet intense interest in all things scientific - especially aeronautics. The broad scope of his interests and talents both in and outside of the field of science are unique and assures him of great success. Iohn Macnamara HAMILTON Honour Chemistry and Physics Handsome Iohn came from Hamil ton Central along with many other future Mac athletes. Gifted as an all-round sportsman and honour stu dent, Iohnnie breezed through Course 40, having enough spare time to be his year Athletic Rep CII, IIIJ, Athletic Pres. QIVI, and star member of the Varsity hockey and track teams. His participation in social, academic and athletic events has won him a host of friends who wish him every success in his quest for higher honours. Future: ThOde's Boys Blackie' and M.Sc. Howard Fred Olds HAMILTON Honour Chemistry and Physics Freddie bounced in from Westdale High clutching the Rotary Scholar- ship in one hand and his Chem. texts in the other. Although a cap- able Science Club President KIIIJ, it was not until his final year that the true variety of practice in SRE 2 led to the Operetta chorus, and as a sideline, he managed the track team and was Year '47 Secre- tary. Keep up the good work, Fred! Ransom Harold Vrooman HAMILTON Honour Chemistry and Physics Rans came from Westdale with a flare for all things scientific, and a yen for higher education in the field of chemistry. In pursuit of this ambition, he won the City of Hamilton Scholarship in his second year. The Science Club tl-Ill and the C.I.C. IIII-IVJ provided him with educational diversion. His abilities showed themselves along another line as member of the stage crew in Year IV. With a record such as his, success is assured. Robert Wesley Walls SOMBRA. ONT. Honour Chemistry and Physics Hugo came from Hamilton Central C.I. to manipulate Science formu- lae. He was an ordinary fellow, very interested in the unordinary odours of the Chem. 42 lab. Part of his time he spent on the soccer field and in his final year he played on the Varsity team. He was a member of the Science Club tl and Ill and C.I.C. CIII and lVl, and during his stay at Mac acquired many close friends. Impression: The more one learns the more there is to learn. Future: Dow plastics.

Nevertheless, she was a library assistant and belonged to the M.C.U., W.l.R.C. and Sociology Club. ln residence, she expended much time and energy keeping her friends from working. Pranks were not beneath her, and parties were her glory. Notorious as the last one ready, she usually caught her train, made her lecture or got her break- ffait. Her future: Vague but hope- u .
