Decoration Committee Final Ball, 1925. In Christian we have a quiet and retiring boy who has been among us for two years, accomplishing a great deal without having had much to say about it. He goes about his work in an unassuming way, always putting his best efforts into whatever he is' doing. These efforts have caused him to rank high academically, and have brought him a responsible position on the Bronco Staff, as well as success in the military depart- ment. Chris is one of those men who can be relied upon at all times, and it is a pleasure to work with him. Wherever he is next year, we hope that he may have many acquaintances, and that they m-ay appreciate his friendship as much as have we. Hello, Sheik Page Fourteen WILLIAM FREDERICK CARVELL, JR.

Auto-rifle and Mounted Pistol Expert, Rifle and Dismounted Pistol Marksman, Swords- man. Honor Board, 1925. Polo, 1924-25-26. Final Ball Committee, 1925. It has always been the passion and desire of every physics bug on the Hill to find out just where CarVel1's center of gravity is. Here is a man that can fall off a horse under every conceivable circumstance, and at any time. Ordinarily, he does it daily. Bill plays -a wonderful game of polo, and is one of our best equestrians. His support of the Institute polo team has been unfaltering, and the credit for a very successful season is largely due to him. VVe appreciate your excellent work, Woolie, and wish that you could remain with us. Yo'u,'re too little. I Qi il Q l M N l I s . ,la V3 'Wi -NM ' Lie' 26 Q.: 5 6

Oscar comes to us from the great city of Socorro, which, we have been told, has a wonderful billiard hall-with checker tables, pop stand n' everythin'l He is one of the most promising sheiks on the Hill. It's been said that when the members of the fair sex look upon his noble figure, they sigh and say' with pathetic voice: He'.s tall, sweet, and slender, has a heart-but doesn't lend 'er. In two short years he has made good. You'll find him on the appointment sheet, he is one of our four basketball stars, and digs a mean pair of spikes into the cinder path. Luck to you fel- er.

B1ooey's sole ambition has been to make every man on the Hill his friend. In this, he has certainly succeeded, as evidenced by his wide popularity. In his troop, he is held in esteemg in bar- racks, fhe is exceptionally well liked, on the athletic field, he is admired for his honesty and sportsmanship. In a word, he is a man that has made good in everything he has undertaken. He leaves us this year to pursue higher knowledge in Texas, where men are men 1 and women are governors. It is hoped that he does this-but there is a young lady to whom he is entirely devoted, and the possible may develop inevitable. Hi, boy! into the -2 S S9 A be v !

Prep basketball, 1924-25. Var- sity Basketball, 1925-26. Dramatics: It Pays to Advertise, The Trysting Place, Baby Mine. Cheer Leader, 1925-26. Member M. A. A. Club. This enthusiastic and promising young man bounced in from wicked San Francisco two years ago in a pair of golf knickers, and has bounced his way through a very -successful career into fame and popularity. Bounced is the proper word to describe his school life, because he has been constantly on the jump, backing everything the cadets have done. His enthusiasm and loyalty have won him the position of cheer leader, made famous by such men as Somerville and Tinkle. If -Clary continues his work else- where with the -same spirit that has characterized it here, we are quite sure that his success will be as great as it has been during his cadet days. All right, men-fifteen for the team! GEORGE ROBERTSON CLARK, JR. Corpus Christi, Texas H01'g'ie, Tuff1fe Three years. Rabbit, 1923-24. Sergeant. 1924-25. Captain, 1925-26. Mounted Pistol Ex- pert. Auto-rifle Sharpshooter, Rifle Marksman Swordsman. Final Ball Committee, 1925. Bronco Hall of Fame, 1926. Behold! Ladies and gentlemen, here we have a rare specimen. Quality, and not quantity, is Georgeis motto. Some accuse him of being hardboil- ed, but how could the cutest cadet really be mean? Babies cry for him, old maids sigh for him, yet indifferent Horgie goes blithely onward-his nose in the air and his feet on the ground. But he'1l fall some day. We have seen mighty strange cases this year, and know that it only takes time to produce THE girl. As a cadet and troop commander, George has proven his worthiness. As a friend, we know of none more sincere. Regretfully do we part with you, George, and confidently do we anticipate your future.
