Quiet and observant Arman has, for the past several years, been one of our most conscien- tious students. When not entangled in confus- ing Trig problems and some of Mr. BuHum's lengthy Modern History questions, Arman has found time to make the swimming team and manage the track team. This year Arman brought another of his abilities to light, for he played an important role in the annual school production 6'What A Life. C. ROLAND BEDDOWS, JR. August 22, 1920 941 Kimball Avenue, East, Westfield, N. 1. aRolly', Undecided One of the many boys to join us this year, Roland has won, through his genial disposition, friendship and respect from every member of the Class. Always smiling, he has brought a goodly amount of quiet maturity into Pingry's halls. Because of his presence, he has brought to the class an outstanding musician, for he plays the drums and has two orchestras of his own, which he conducts on week-ends. eniom Page Fifteen

K., 4, Stage Crew, 4, Coat Committee, 4, Com- munity Playersg Departmental Honors in Book- keeping, 3. Bob has had a big part this year in putting on the swell dances welve had. Though he's not reticent Bob has a great deal of maturity and sensibility. His genuine amiability and dispo- sition are sure to carry him far. Bob certainly exemplifies moderation in every way, but still he is one of our smooth apples-in personality, clothes and vehicular contraptions. CALEB GRANT BAXTER II January 9, 1921 West Road, Short I-Iills, N. J. Banca Box', Middlebury Tennis Team, 3, 45 Football, 4, Bridge Club, 4, Camera Club, 3, Record Board, 4, Blue Book Board, 4, Dance Committee, 4, Senior Coat Committee, 4. Bax is the boy with the dapper personality. During the past two years, his knowledge, ex- perience, and athletic ability have added much to the Senior Class. Not only was he one of our star passing backs last fall, but as an active member of the tennis team he has achieved numerous successes. Bax has been largely in- strumental in the success of the Pingry dances during the past year and this combined with his ability to converse on any subject from grand opera and the great works of literature to sports will assure his future in any field.

NDiz'k,, NFacts7' Princeton Tennis Team, 3, Captain, 4, Student Council, 4, Mathay Cup, 3, Tennis Team Champion- ship, 3, Cornell lnterscholastic Tennis Cham- pionship, 3. ln the annals of the Class of 1940 Dick's name, of necessity, is synonymous with tennis. He is without a doubt the most renowned member of the Class, for he has won several tennis championship tournaments and is, we hope, slated to be one of the countryis leading tennis players some day. Dick, during the last two years, has not brought his athletic abilities alone to us, however. He has contributed much in the way of humorous anecdotes to the Class record. He has been an active member of the Student Council and has spent a great deal of time escaping the ire of Messrs. Booth and Buffum. Wherever he goes, however, success is sure to be his. ARTHUR DAVID BENNETT September 4, 1920 212 Mayhew Drive, South Orange, N. J. '6Ben,' Dave U. of Pennsylvania S occe r, 4, Bridge, 4. Dave arrived at our gates this year hand in hand with Eddie Mason. During his short stay, he has been one of the most capable and active members of the newly-founded Bridge Club, while in the world of sport he has proved him- self worthy of both the soccer and baseball teams. We wish Dave the best of luck.
