An able professor of long standing, he had become almost a Wesleyan tradition, a part of the school itself. We, the student body, loved Robbo-we loved his delight in the ancient people, and roared with him at his humorous interpretations of their customs. There was always a subtle aura of humor about him, and a keen enjoyment of life and activity. Deeply we miss his gentlemanly spirit, his sincere comradeship, his quiet influence for good. Edilh Many lloss In one short, busy year of college, Edey grew to be well known and much loved by the whole campus. With a vivid personality and a unique charm she was a valuable asset to Pi Beta Phi, Sophomore Commission, Y.W.C.A. and the many other organizations to which she devoted her time and her talents. Possessing an unusually line voice, she was promptly admitted into Singers' Club and A Cappella Choir. In her life at Campus Lodge, as well as in every phase of her living, she attained a perfection and a beauty of spirit which is indeed a rare and exquisite thing. lillllVl
