And wasn't that a lucky event for every one concerned? Shrimp has played in the Band for so long they couldn't get along with- out him. Being a slave to the ladies is another of his accomplishments, and when he is all rigged out in dress uniform with plenty of chevrons and braid, we don't wonder that he seems to get along pretty well. He has been a loyal friend and one we are glad to have had. So long, Shrimp, and good luck to you. ' 59

Z'- Team '17-'18, i iiiatnrg A personal interview with the Count elicited the information that he hails from New London, Con- necticut, and when asked what they do there, he re- plied Everybody . His ambition is VVest Point, but, although a ,line-appearing, deserving chap, he seems to be unable to get his appointment. In N. Y. M.

fii tion Basketball l18 lljintnrg This man calls himself Row , lf anybody calls him Rauch, he is insulted for he says he cloesn't want to be called anything which rhymes with grouch . He comes from the sunny South, and brings with him many of the traditional characteristics of the typical Southeruer. His very manner carries with it a suggestion of manana and of warm and lan- guicl nights, lazy clarkies tinkling banjoes, soft music in a liquid sky, and the other accessories of Dixie. This impression extends to our lady visitors, we judge, as they invariably are caught by his courteous ways. He is a good fellow, our Rauch, and we wish he might have been with us longer. , 60 Qlbarles flilaurtce itkauzb TIENNI ssm: ZKrrurh Entered '17. Private A om pany '17-'18. Tennis Squid 18 e
