BOUCHARD, ALBERT JOHN 11 Lewis Street, Winsted, Conn. Nutmeg Club A jolly good scout, plus the sort of stuff that is bound to succeed. A lover of the open spaces where men are men. But Saturday nights! Good-bye men! Ambition—to instruct Mr. Marsh in Calculus. BURKHART, WALTER Scranton, Pa. Hails from the coal district of Pennsylvania.

Although from the wilds of around Tuckahoe, this lad manages by fair or foul means to escort a few of the fair sex on the “EL” each day. Inspecting power plants is his chief hobby.
