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. TZLat's my idea! 1 lb -i f . 1 , i 5 my e SM H- V' .ag '26 gr Page Fifteen w

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. Wiliniington, Delaware Woolie , Bill Three years. Rabbit, 1923-24. Sergeant, First Sergeant, 1924-25, First Lieutenant, Captain. 1925-26. 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

Decoration Committee Final Ball, 1925. Member Big Three. Baseball, 1924-25-26. Tell Daly that he is dumb, and he will not resent the charge. Accuse him of being a low-brow, and he'll simply return the inevitable So's your ol' man. Criticize his taste in choice of books and poetry, and he'll remain good natured. But of all the insulting epithets in the American lan-guage, the most repugnant to Bigelow is hick. He believes that this word of four letters, meaning a gullible one, contains more contempt and malice than any other expression in the pungent vocabulary of the Jazz Age. He is straight, honest, and a good mixer-one to whom we wish all success in his efforts. You don't say! PJ Page Sixteen THOMAS V. COFFIN, JR. Hope, New Mexico IKT0m,!I f!R0Sy!! Two years. Rabbit, 1924-25. Corporal, Ser- geant, 1925-26. Track, 1924-25. Wl'rat's in a name? Mr. Webster defines a coffin as a chest or case for a last resting place. From the chron- icles of the editor, we note an applica- tion of the definition to this personage, inasmuch as both are seemingly solemn, unexpectedly in demand, and fill va useful place in civilized communities. Being incurious-, we have never delved into Rosy's past, but we are assured- that there are no stains upon his char- acter, and believe it. Tom is the kind of m-an that we are all glad to know- good natured, pleasant and considerate. We hope that he will receive his just reward, and the success that such a type merits.
