Dlato. fMARIE HARTMAN A young lady of brilliant talents, who promises to rival the genius of George Eliot very shortly. The most momentous consequence of her gradu- ation, however, will be to dissolve the celebrated llSorority which has been so justly famous in cafeteria turmoils. The Hdinkv misses a regular genius with the passing of IMarie. FLORENCE BOYRIE Destined to graduate in the notorious class of 1920, Florence slipped a cog and stayed out a year. Nevertheless, she has joined in with the spirit of her adopted class without bemoaning the good old days, and made herself a necessary part of this year's affairs. Theoretically a psych. major, her thesis has been a combination of sociology and economics as well. Still, she has dragged many an unsuspecting friend into the psych. lab. and forced an un- desirable test upon him. She has a sense of humor and a sympathetic friendliness which have made her universally adoredl DOROTHY DICK Dorothy is probably one of our best known Co-eds on the campus. She is the lady to take your troubles to, if you have a new invention to ad- vertise, as she knows all about the ad business. In past years, through her clever work, she has amassed so many credits, that this year she has been able to play Frosh again as we all would like to do. She is also known as a writer of limerieks, and initiator of skating parties.

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. '

HOWARD MCGOWAN Mac will forever bafHe the historian. His tem- pestuous nature has made him the romanticist of the campus, and an exploit a day was ever hi5 minimum. Resourceful in argument, Mac has expounded the truth against all comers, and right or wrong, he never gives up the ship. His knowl- edge of women's wiles has ever been a source of wonder to his male companions and his insight into the feminine character a cause for consterna- tion among the ladies. 'As president of House F he was an active executive, but he failed as a worm-hunter. Mac was Ever-Ready when it came to a scrap, in class or out. MARIE UTLEY Marie is a recent arrival, having come to Reed only this year. She is a math major and passes her spare time juggling ellipses, hyperbolas and parabolas in an attempt to make them behave. We donlt know her past, but we judge that it has been as brilliant as the future which we predict for her. LEITH JOHNSTON Leith occasionally donned the traditional horn- rimmed in his senior year, but he didn't loqk scholarly even then. Leith has been Reeds premier chauffeur and auto mechanic for four years, and as a social light he has shone brightly or flickered as the mood willed. For a Whllc Leith and his room-mate, Robbie, were quite a pair. Then, like the amoeba, they divided and became four. Here's to you, Jonah. x Illti'fll
