Willie's main trouble is in finding words to ask the girls to roller skate with him. MAYNARD, MILES 1351 State Street, Bridgeport, Conn. Manager Class Soccer Nutmeg Club Hails from the great open spaces around Bridgeport, and is an authority on bodies (truck bodies). But, after all, we feel he has missed his calling.

MEYER, CHARLES F. 26 Hallock Avenue, New Haven, Conn. Representative Neighborhood Association 24 Social Secretary Nutmeg Club ’24 Nutmeg Club ’24-’25 To redouble his vigilance, and render service, even in regard to the most trifling circumstances, is his aim. A fellow with high ideals, he is a lover of books and sports as well. MEYER, FREDERICK R, 26 Hallock Avenue, New Haven, Conn . Class Cheer Leader ’24 Treasurer Nutmeg Club His success and happiness along life’s path is ever insured by his ever potential assets of hearty co-operation and earnest application, mixed with plenty of mirth to overcome obstacles and brighten the dark corners. MILLER, BERNHARDT 67 Verplanck Avenue, Beacon, N. Y. Whether or not he was originally named for the “Divine Sarah,” this association has had its subconscious effect in training physiog- nomical mobility or bland affectation at voli- tion. And we weep to learn that this histronic forte is to be thrown away in a brickyard,. 32

No wonder so many girls are missed from their homes there. Some one said Charles is going to be an engineer. Imagine the wonders he'll do with a face like that.
