Peggy admits that he was born and raised in the sunny little Georgia town of Chipley, and it was there that he learned to be such an industrious salesman. Be- sides being a good salesman, O ' Neal is a good sport with the girls, having one as his real sweetheart, who tells him that his mustache is the cutest thing. He is one of the most industrious men in our class. If you ever happened around you would find him busily en- gaged at something. He is ne.ver idle. He won the Oglethorpe Coat-of-Arms, which is the highest honor that the school can bestow upon her sons. This is proof of Peggy ' s initiative, and argues well for his future career. Candler was born, bred and still lives in Marietta. He makes us think that he doesn ' t care much for the fair sex, but a fellow with that slow winning smile that he possesses, just can ' t keep away from them. When you meet blonde-headed Campbell, and that smile is cast upon you, you know that behind it is sincerity and a heart as true as gold. He is quiet in manner, but once in action he is all life, as he has proven by his magnificent two year career on the gridiron. Life is yours Chandler, and we know that you will make it more than worth while. Noiv, it ' s like this — brushes.

The webs you ' ve been weaving are mystic and wise Too fragile, too sacred, too high — to despise. Awake, do you say From my making of dreams? Awake from Utopia Isle? With my dreams a poet, a visionist, I Without, unpatterned clay. So Truth and Reality away! ' Tis Morning, I say. And the thrush calls his mate. And the sunlight unravels your spell. The pictures you ' ve painted. The castles you ' ve built Like the latent seed in the shell Lie dormant ivithin! For what good if they be not real. And to what purpose if they come not true? So Dreamer, awake and achieve! s

He has somewhat of a quiet nature, but when he talks his words are full of action. If you know him, you have indeed found a rare and worthy friend, one that is pure as gold and as true as the stars. By his amiable traits he has worked his personality into the lives of his classmates, and we- wish that we had longer to stay in his presence. He is the best baseball catcher yet. He ' s arsenic when it comes to handling that pill. Pug if you play the game of life as you have played the popular game baseball, we know that you will in the afterwhile find the end of the rainbow. We wish you the best of luck.
