R. EARLE FIELDING HI keep close to my business. Montclair Academy, l15-l19; Rifle Club, 16318; Forum, 17- ,19; Chess Club, ,19; Class Rifle Team, ,17318; RiHe Team, 19. September, 1915, will always remain notable for having ushered into M. A. the class without peer. Caught in the whirlpool of such magnificence came a quite unassuming chap, Earle Fielding by name. Earle seldom speaks and does not participate in athletics with the result that we cannot say much about him except this, that he is certainly llthere with school spirit in watching the games and is a staunch. member of the Rifle Club. He is also an earnest worker in the Forum Society, being present at all the meetings and taking an in- terest in debating. we think we remember Fielding's saying once that he would rather work on an algebra problem than ezit, but as we have been present at some of his noon meals we think it would have to be some problem. Earle fiies back and forth to Glen Ridge daily on his motor- wheel and tinkering with it probably gave him the inspiration to take up engineering as his profession. Fielding has an aim in life, to enter Stevens next fall, and we know he will hit the bullls eye in this attempt also. 25

RAYMOND A. EBERSOLE nI am a man of few words? Montclair Academy, y18$19; Forum, 18319; Executive Comm., t19; Orchestra, ,18319; Corporal M. A. B., ,19; Foot- ball Team, ,18; Manager Baseball, 19. One seldom finds two talentedyouths in the same family but it seems to be so in the case of the Ebersoles. Ray, the youth from the Pacific Isle, leaped into prominence when he went out to chase the elusive pigskin, never having played the game before, and made the Varsity. Ray is atrather quiet fellow and seldom has much to say but when he does it is well worth hearing. He was appointed baseball manager and all of us who heard his talk at the baseball rally know he will make a success of it. You surely are a business man Hrst and Past, Ray, and we predict that you,11 be a millionaire some day. He also delights LU us by his playing on the Vio- lin. Just look at the picture of the orchestra and youtll see him, and the Violin we mentioned, in the back row. Although Ray Claims he prefers the U. S. to Hawaii, we have oft seen a dreamy 100k come into his eyes, and the wise ones among us know that he is pining for the hula hula mai- dens and the beach at Waikiki. Here,s wishing you all kinds of luck at Cornell, Ray. 24

C. ALBERT FULLE llI dare do all that becomes a man. Montclair Academy, ll7, ll7-l19; Forum, ,17, l17-ll9; Ser- geant-at-Arms, ,17318; Vice-President, ll9; Kodak Klub, ll7, y17319; Dramatic Club, 17, ll7-ll9; RiHe Club, 17, 717318; Chairman Junior Prom Comml, ,18; School Dance C0mm., 18- ,19; Art Contributor llOn Bounds? 18; Art Contributor HYe Yeare Bookefy ,18; Art Editor HYe Yeare Bookefl ,19; Foot- ball Team, '17; Class RiHe Team, ,18; Captain Swimming Teamy l19. ilYou know me, Alfy Yes, I know you, you little shrimpfy Yes, everyone does appear to be a little shrimp to our young giant, A1 Fulle, who attains to the awe-inspiring height of 6 ft. 6 in., and is no bean pole at that. Have you noticed a long, gray Packard Twin Six madly tearing around town with a big youth at the wheel? Thatls Al. Fulle is almost as prominent a fellow in accomplishments as he is in size. He captained the swimming team during the past season and his spectacular attainments at plunging were the cause of many of M. A35 Victories in the tank. In fact, Al holds the school plunge record and often competes in aquatic events for the N. Y. A. C. at which Club he spends much of his time. He is also noted for his talent with the pen. As his sketches adorn many pages of this volume, of which he is the Art Editor, you may judge for yourself. Though laid up at home for quite a hit so that some of his activities have been cur- tailed, Fulle was on the School Dance Committee and this past term held the position of Vice-President of the Forum. We expect big things from you at Yale, A1.
