LUTHER LEIGHTON LEE BOONE, JR. Men should be what they seem; Or, those that seem not, would they might seem none, Although his language is a bit modern and “breezy,” when he speaks of the heroes of ancient Rome, he is the original Auneas when it comes to reading Latin. Secretary and Treasurer, Tennis Asso- ciation; Football Team; Captain, Basketball Team, Captain, Track Team; Dramatic Club; Lawyer, Class Day. AVON BLUE, JR. Quit yourselves like men. He practices the above, although the boys do call him ‘‘Baby Blue.’”’ A firm believer in out door sports; a very possible mark for Cupid; but no “lame duck” in his bocks. Football Team, Basketball Team, Baseball Team (Pitcher); Editor, ‘‘Tileston Topics,” Editor THr Sanp Fippier; Dramatic Club; Prophet, Class Day.

MARY WORTH I think of thee, sweet lady, as of one Too pure to mix with others; like some star, Shining in pensive beauty all alone, Kindred with those around, yet brighter far. Our “guardian angel.” It is interesting to note how many of the Class may be described by one of their names. Mary was never known to be angry—if so, she would not condescend to show it. A member United Order of Mirth. Vice-President Class 1911; President, Girls Literary Society; Editor THE SAND FIppLer. LEILA EDNA WOODCOCK Yet do I fear thy nature; It is too full of the milk of human kindness. A “wee small’ voice, quite as small in stature, and a most friendly nature. One of our Seven Wonders: enjoys Latin ! 19

RICHARD WILLARD CANTWELL Describe him who can, An abridgment of all that was pleasant in man. President of American Society for Pre- vention to Cruelty to Animals and Old Maids— otherwise known as “‘Pete.”’ A profound scien- tist and historian, yet his knowledge doesn’t spoilhim. He is the best natured boy in the Class, also the smallest. Member School Orchestra; Assistant Editor-in-Chief, ‘“Tileston Topics’’; Assistant Editor-in-Chief, Tor Sanp FIDDLER; Manager, Basketball Team. HIRAM KERSHAW KING To be a well favored man is the gift of Fortune, But to write and read comes by nature. He has simply got the “gray matter’ stowed away in his ‘cocoanut.’ Has been offered fabulous prices by brain-food concerns as an advertisement. A: “spieler’” when it comes to a pinch—can reach the remotest heights of oratory. Can look a girl in the face and never make a blink. A rarity of the rarities. They seldom come this way like him. President, Class; Editor-in-Chief ‘“Tileston Topics,’ and THE Sanp Fippter; Dramatic Club; Statisti- cian, Class Day.
