Subtle in character, his humor has enlivened the class on many an occasion, while his pleasant disposition has brought him many friends. Bill can also be classified as one of the better scholars. Don't think, however, that he spends all his time on his books, for he has been active in extracur- ricular affairs. He has devoted much time to the Bluff Book as its Managing Editor, and in addition is busy in many clubs. YVhile the future is impossible to predict, it is fairly certain that Bill will make a success of it. HARRY GRAY BURKS, H1 january 11, 1931 855 Salem Avenue, Elizabeth. N.

This year Doc has been kept very busy as .Xssociate Editor of the Record. He is very easy to spot in a crowdg all one must do is say one disparaging' word about Standard Oil and he will be right in front of him, arguing until he apologizes. Most of the Doc's spare time is spent out at llaltusrol, where he practices for his week-end matches with the older golfers. After leaving Pingry, Harry is headed for Princeton to study engineering and will no doubt even surpass his previous record.
