Sergeant, 2nd Lieutenant. 1st Lieutenant R. O. T. C. ; Blue Stocking Staff. 22. His smile shows his happiness. His friends his popularity. Parker hails from Iva, S. C, the smallest town in South Carolina, next to Chester. This is also the home of Dewey Hall, and sundry other more or less intelligent creatures. Bowie is a man of few words, a fiery orator, and a con- firmed ladies man — at home. His good nature and generosity have won for him a host of friends among the Faculty as well as among the sludcnl body. He possesses one of the rare l gifts bestowed by nature — a genuine, old fash- ioned guffaw! Loud and long he laughs! and the world laughs with him. ' Bowie will always be remembered for thai laugh of his. and his willing hand In help al any time. We are not sure whether at present his heart i centered ,ii Anderson College, D. .. W. C, Coker, Columbia, Converse, Chicbfa, Limestone, or at home in [va. He. has ai various times been interested in all those places. However, we part with the wish that wherever she is. will smile upon Ins --nil. and make him remain as happ) a- In- iiaturalh i . Tuenty

illiam Rai Anderson, A. B. Laurens, S. C. 4esir Euk. Class Football, 1919- ' 20- ' 21 : 1st Cen- sor, Vice-President, President Society; Corporal. Sergeant, and 1st Sergeant R. O. T. C. : Vice-President Laurens County Club; Camp McClellan Club; Dramatic Club. Be true — serve: Then your reward will be you deserve. In the Fall of 1919, a sunburn- ed, snaggle-toothed lad matricu- lated at P. C, thereby becoming a member of one of the best classes that ever infested the campus. This lad of the tomb-stone incisors was William Ray Anderson to the Freshmen of next year. Bill to the rest of the class of ' 23. and Ned to the ladies. Bill, however. has since worked his way into lite hearts of all bis fellow students. He has a kind heart and a read) and cheerful grin for all occasions. He is a Bear with the ladies, and upon occasion tries to look like a ' tea- hound ' . Don ' t tell him. but he miserably fails in tiiis. much to his credit. He has a refined sense of humor, is loyal and chivalrous, and those who know the man cannot help but love him. Xed expects to vend pink pills for pale people. tho we believe Osteopathy would appeal to him more. Good Luck! Bill, and may success reward you in whatever line of work vou choose to follow.

James Blaine Clowney, A. B. Chester. S. C. Aesir Phil. Football (3), Captain ' 22; Class Football ' 19; Philomathean Society; At- tended three times; Vice-President. A lad of mettle — aye, every inch a man. About the unkindest cut a man could give Coon ' is to say he is ugly, for that he is nothing else but. However, there is no use in telling him so. Just jolly him along, and let it go at that. In many respects, Clowney has the most marvelous constitution of anyone in the class of ' 23. He can be desperately ill with pneu- monia during Spanish, then undergo a miraculous recovery, only to be smitten with the small pox or something as virulent when Economics rolls around. He has mmrmiX fr- ■ ■ ■ ' • -: m III sssssss; :ms immmm2i even been known to have a case of ' sleeping sickness during Pedagogy. In spite of such constitutional failings. Clowney has made the grade : he has sur- vived the test; he faces the world as a finished pro- duct of Big Dick ' s Christian College. Coon has one of the most likeable personalities we know of anywhere. You simply cannot associate with him and not like him. For our own part, we have a feeling of affection for this homely youth — and it is not solely for his ability as a football captain, either. In short, Clowney has those qualities that characterize a Man: courage, humor, frankness, friendliness, and personality. It is with a true, deep regret that we realize that no more can we associate with Coon in the same free, joyous spirit of the past four years, for our paths now part. Never shall we forget him.
