HCF SCOlCll SQ HELEN ELIZABETH WATT The Watt's Watt about Helen is that she is majoring in Psych, that she deserted us for Oregon, but like the prodigal son, returned to the fold, and that she no longer drives her car, having run into a Cliff. Her thesis research has revealed the fact that the psychology and economics of the lumber industry are closely con- nected. In her spare time she devotes herself to music in which art she is very proflcient. lRVIN MARTIN GOODMAN Those who have heard this political aspirant lecture tell us that they are reminded very much of that historical personage of the eighteenth centuryaRousseau. His friends believe that he will lead some new thought movement that will revolutionize the world. XVe hope he starts in on the college curriculum. lrve also distinguished himself in an auto accident sometime ago. Despite injuries of a very grave Character he managed to attend classes. The eyes of the world are on you, Goodman. FRIEDE CLOSE Friede belongs to the Independent Order of Hashers. She is another of those people who wield the whistle in the gym. just to look at her you would be much more likely to think she was a Erosh than a Senior. In fact it's quite embarrass- mg at times, isn't it, Friede? But then that's nothing. Look at some of the rest of us.

Her iron rule has been .ifelti' in House D where she is president and guides the young in paths of righteousness. Jo tells us Off and on that she is undecided between taking a position next year and going on to school. We predict success in either case. ARTHUR MCLEAN Busiest man on the campus. Edison has the sleeping sickness compared to Art. Mac has given himself unstintingly to every worthy cause. Carrying six subjects was Mac's business, earning his living an avocation, and lending a trained hand to student activities his recreation He was ever the personification of that term, intellectual enthusiasm. Prex of House G, dominant tenor in the chorus, feature writer on the Quest, mem- ber of Quills, wrestler, and one of the best actors Reed has ever known, on the stage and off. J ULIA HARRISON This person has climbed back of her Chevrolet to hide her freckles and her polka dots. julie has red hair and an artistic temperament, so she majors in Physical Ed and holds the key t0 the Drama Club stockroom. Before she and Madelame Steffen became the Gold Dust Twins, she used to ride horseback in the snow to teach school in eastern Oregon. Then she came to Reed, bobb?d her hair, shortened her skirts, and participated in framing the scandalous Senior Statements. julle daydodges, so it must be the Chev that has 821Ve her slow impish grin. . .

EVERETT ROBINSON Robbie, wide known as math. shark, graduates with a consistent record of scholarship, and a dis- tinet leaning, toward the central plank in the platform of the Bachelor clubs platform. Rob- bie has pursued the baffling quest with little regard for distracting by-paths. When in college, he rode a motorcycle, and played basketball and a saxophone, according to ths Whohs biography of the noted mathematician. TOM BROCKWAY Upon sunny days we often see perched upon his balcony and chortling to the world, the most versatile man in our college. He has responsibili- ties ranging from Student Body President to offlcial cyclist of our spinsters, and manages in his spare time to preach sermons about the Religious College Student at the Unitarian Church. Parmelee may be musical but you could never guess it from his serenades upon the Chinese Swine Horn. In working out his thesis T. B. fmds that both he and Shelley turned a deaf ear to Plato. EDITH MATTHEWS Edith, better known to the cafeteria line by her pet name of Bevo, has added a jazzy note to many college festivities. Her knowledge of the latest song hits and her ability to make them heard has made her invaluable at dances. Beside her efforts in that line, she has written a thesis on the history of Spanish literature which may SCFVC as text-book for endless generations of students. This year she has assisted Henrietta in the edu- cation of the lower classes. '
