Jack Allis Look at this handsome physiognomy for a moment-yes, it's Jake - lothario and cutter-upper par excellence. Always before the public eye, due to both his athletic prowess and the colum- nistic efforts of the Spectator, Jack is one of the most popular fellows in school, or to speak in his own vernacular - he's a good gent. He has undeni- ably topped his brother Louis as chief headwind of Room I. and is unchal- lenged champion in the art of wearing loud socks. He played a swell game as regular half-back last fall, put his cleats on the shelf. donned sneakers and roamed all over the floor as first string forward on our basketball quintet. winning his C in that sport. His restless spirit still surged within him. so he stepped out to win his second letter in baseball. flash- ing his infectious smile in various di- rections as he stopped all manner of grounders. flies. and long drives. And that's a very commendable record. say we. Speed seems to appear in some form whenever Jacks name is mentioned: not only in athletics, but at the wheel of the famous mustard-colored Ford. .lake is velocity personified. .lack's going to Harvard - all we can say is. Best of luck, and Cambridge beware - with two Allises on the campus. anything's liable to happenf 22 Senio Dlax Babb Here we have the little Napoleon of the Class of 1935 - Max Wellington Babb. Jr. - he of the diminutive phy- sique and gigantic brain. Max is cer- tainly proof of the old adage to the effect that all good things come in small packages. Possessed not only of every quality which goes to make an exceptional student. this bespectacled sparkplug has won his way into the hearts of every boy and master in the school because of his splen- did personality and his keen sense of humor. In his capacity as editor-in-chief of our mighty newspaper. the Ledger. Max has done a great job, and one which has earned praise for himself and his school. Modest and unassuming, A'Bud has carried on a diversified school life here at C. D. Being one of the best flute players in the middle west. he has been a mainstay in the great musical CU aggregation under the tutelage of Mr. Curtis. A'Bud was one of the most efficient managers Ray has ever had in basketball, and soon became a master at shooting the final gun and holding the stopwatch. His fame as a dead eye on the hardwoods is as widespread as any of his academic attributes. A'Max has been a prime factor in making the great Senior class greater: and when he gets to Yale, watch his smokef S K
