NINETEEN THIRTY-FOUR USURGING YEARS 1930-1934 AND MERRILY WE ROLL ALONG! RICHARD MCALLISTER ADAINIS . . .ararek1uzck. . . Philomathea Worcester, Massachusetts Dick, one of those rare products of Hermon. Not only has he distinguished himself as a cham- pion hurdler, line-plunger, and basketball trundler, but he has displayed a rare knack of slamming all and sundry by his scathing Hermonitems. Dart- mouth is his next hurdle on the road to success. There is no stopping this burly son of Worcester. Activities-Club: Treas., '32, '33, President, '34. Dormitory: Spirit Committee, '32.

Lyceum Grafton, Massachusetts Marshall first brought himself before the public eye as a result of an accident on the highway. He still maintains that he had the right to four-fifths of the road. Since that time, however, he has been setting things in order among the Overtounites. From Hermon he aspires to Dartmouth on the way to a business career. Wall Street, beware! This Hermonite must have the road. Activities-Dormitory: Vice-President, '33, '34, Athletics: Football, '32, '33, Swimming, Manager, '34 GEORGE EVERETT ALDEN . . . Carpe Diem . . . Good Government H artford, Connecticut There are men fall kinds of themj who manage to keep themselves within the focus of a moving eye, but not so George. His quiet industrious method of accomplishing the daily task, in harmony with a natural zeal for outdoor running, has left its im- print. In the Vergilian strain, we conclude with Carpe Diem -keep up the good works! Activities-Athletics: Cross-Country, '31, '32, '33, H , Track, '31, '32, Soccer, '32. J osE A1moM . . . unashamed of his record . . . Philomathea Mayari, Oriente, Cuba He is small in size but mi hty in brains. Unim- paired by a year of Dan Bodley's rent factory and unashamed of his record of torn shirts, sheets, and whatever else is rippable, he goes from us with an enviable galaxy of A's. It is J oe's ambition to go to Yale next, where he will make another brilliant scholastic record. Activities-Athletics: Swimming, F. '29, Wres- tling, S. '33. Club: Chaplain, '33, '34, Debater, '34-. High Honors, F. '29, F. '32, S. '33. Cum Laude.

As a Crossley floor ottieer, president of J unior class, and then president of Senior class, he has heen continually in the limelight. ln sports he shines, whcthcr it is tying men in knols on thc wrestling mats, holding down the center of thc line in foot- hall, or tossing the hammer into space. Needless to say, a man of his popularity has made his mark across the river, and hc will long' he 1'C1l1l'Il1lll'I'l'd lu-re and at the Sem. Congratulations, Princeton!

In the past year he has captained the varsity football and basketball teams, and he has proved himself equal to the best of them. He starred in Nothing but the Truih, and his hard work in his studies will make a berth for him at Yale, where he will follow in the footsteps of his father and his two brothers.

M ayari, Oriente, Cuba We wonder whether it is an old Spanish custom, at any rate, Hob claims the record of never having been late to or absent from classes. Though not an intellectual prodigy like his miniature brother, he has done creditable work here at Hermon. After a short stay at Dartmouth, Bob will return to his na- tive lanc of sunshine, senoritas, and revolutions. Perhaps he may take a turn at being President for a week, . . . who knows?

He has spent many hours in the kitchen during his Hermon career. He is not oversized but rugged, f rightfully serious at times, but brimming with a humor all his own. Ever since he fought the flames of that forest fire, Bill has been set on studying forestry. He goes to Syracuse for that purpose, and some day he expects to raze a forest.

Philomathea Salem, Jllassachusctts Speed is the name this blithe fellow is known by. He earned it not on the track but in YVest Hall, for no one could keep a table better supplied than he. Good-naturcd and obliging, game as a tighting cock on the soccer field, Warren will make his mark some day in the business world. He is undecided as to what college he is going to attend, but business ad- ministration will be his course.

Northfield, Illassachuscfts Two years ago this little red-haired boy appeared on our campus, coming from the ancient country of Egypt. Bill thought one year was enough to spend among the roughnecks of Crossleyg so since that time he has sojourned in Northfield. Those who know Bill can testify that he is a friend worth hav- ing, and we strongly suspect him of having not a. few admirers in the Sem. He is planning to go to Bay Path to study commercial aviation. ActivitiesAOrchestra, '31, '32.
