JUNIOR CLASS-CONTIN U ED Harold Leslie Herrmann is a simon-pure Western product, of Teutonic ancestry, Latin susceptibility, and curly hair. To the last quality he owes his enviable nickname of Curly, his name is the only proof of the firstg and as for the second, it is based upon a certain coeducational infirmity diagnosed by Pro- fessor Kyle as rudimentary paranoia complicated by fixed idea and psychic obsession, with all of which H. Leslie has recently become unexpectedly and completely inoculated. qi But Herr- mann is neither an intellectual mirage nor a mental delusion. l-le has a good head on him-and there is something in it. John Alvin Anderson is the long-sought-for Missing Link- not between man and his anthropoid ancestor of the caudal appendage, to be sure, but between student and faculty. He is said to have started out in life with the fell intention of being a self-made man. Well, he got the reinforced concrete founda- tion all laid, but one day as he was meditating on his task he decided that the responsibility was too great for him to under- take alone so he called in the College to help with the super- structure. Ill I-le is now being finished off in the latest im- proved Mission sty-le with the Class of 'IZ and hopes to be the pioneer graduate of the course in Commerce. John Kenneth l-laggart early acquired the appellation of Kilby',. In former days there was a Kilby's Kilbyn who was commonly mentioned in connection therewith-but alas! Kilby has served for countless years as basketball captain and is a first-team football man,-all this in spite of pickles, pound cake, and pipe. qi l-laggart is ,a man of self confidence and high ability, who believes in the College and the course he is taking. Vacation to him means three hot months in an office or following a walking plow through tough Kansas soil as his mind dwells on the cool breezes of summer resorts like Cloudcroft. King Olaf Windsor is the great living proof that the old Viking spirit has survived through the ages. It has cropped out repeatedly on the football field, it burned brightly during the cane rush, and now it asserts itself in a crowning burst of splen- dor by moving Ole to undertake the Business Managership of this book. qi Jokes aside, Windsor's record, since he entered the College in l907, is an admirable one. He does not care a rap for praise, ccmes uo to Fl-eddy's requirements for gameness and squareness, and is the hardest worker in the Class of 'IZ- and that's saying something. Page Th irty-two

Washing-' ton's Boyhood. Richard and the Dad of his Country check up exactly c-n the following points: fa, stature, tbl mien, fc? habits, fdj agricultural and military tendencies, and feb fondness for seeing Indians dance. 511 Quesenberry is clean, sane, healthy, earnest, studious, and a lot more good things. The only Haw in his past is that he missed the Junior Prom. Arthur Alphonse Laferriere entered the College in l903,- but he hasnit been here ever since,-far from that. He has continued his education largely in the University of Hard Knox since those halcyon days, and after obtaining his degree of Ph. D. therein now returns to things academic. He is long Page Thirty-one on Chemistry, Hair, Journalism, Junior Proms, and land in Mexico, on which the lnsurrectos are now raising Cain by pyro- irrigation. qi A modest, serious minded, able fellow, and one of the live wires in the Class of '12, Phyllis Barbour Deerner is the traditional uonly girln in the Junior Class-hats off, please-the only member of the class who was not present at the Junior smoker. She has taken special studies in the College from year to year, for some eight winters and is a connoisseur of ccurses, but fwith excellent good tastelj has deferred her graduation until it could be consum- mated with the Class of '12, QI Miss Deemer has helped many worthy and struggling student activities, notably the jour- nalistic and literary ones, and now holds with dignity the chair of Literary Editor of this volume of The Swastika.
