THE VEEZIDUAN NHNETEEN 'TWELVE DANIEL JOSEPH KENEFICK, JR. Sir, your wit a-mbles 111,-ell, it goes easily. Dau was horn August Q. 1892, and came to Nichols in SQIJlC111lJC1', 1909, 1 from Lafayette. He believes in taking things easy, and generally succeeds pretty well. Many would like to become possessors of the earliest and confid- ing manner which he uses with the masters.

LANSING PORTER MOORE Small 'in stature only. Port first started on the pursuit of graft, August 26, 1892, and hasn't let up since. At times he is dangerous, and many have felt the weight of his mas- sive fist. He really is our only P. G., but we decided that this section would not be a success Without a reproduction of those well-known features, including that thatch of hair. He is thinking of entering the Engineering School at Cornell. Track Squad,'11,'12g Manager Baseball Team,'1Qg Quad club,'11g Business Manager VERDIAN,,11, Nichols Press Representative,'11,'12. 19
