There are twelve people in the country who under- stand Einstein, among whom are Walter. He is especially interested in good looking women. His room is a gallery of the most beautiful girls on the campus. Next to his interest in art Walter prefers the classic game of tennis, being one of the most formidable raequet wielders the college has ever seen. How he has resisted the wiles of the opposite sex has been a source of mystery to his friends although we have a hunch that uHess. works on the outside. CONSUELO McMILLAN uCon is our campus Sarah Bernhardt. She has not only performed on the legitimate stage, but is also a movie star, having played the lead in the Reed production The Reconstruction of Mary. When not acting, practicing or wrestling with her thesis subject, Con is to be found in the Co-op passing centennials over the counter and making change. CLIFFORD ZOLLINGER They tell us that a man acts upon his beliefs con- eemmg facts but not necessarily in accordance With the facts themselves. Zolly is a living proof Of this statement, and for some time he has been acting upon the belief that i'a bird in hand is worth two in the bush. In the Field of economic Cndeavor one may rest assured that the name Clifford Zollinger will always be associated with Cmciency. He. tells us that his plans for the Cpmmg year have not completely ripened but the $1Ens at least impel the belief that his nest will always be feathered. e 5's- engyr m. unfam-we: .. e

MARJORIE jEWETT THOMPSON A member of the HSororityf' famous for her linguistic talents and a lover of the rural beauties of the campus. 'iDeepest rivers run the most siientlyi' Piutarch once observed and his words seem to find verification in the quiet power of the celebrity on the left. When interviewed as to the future Marjorie answered with an ill Concealed attempt at suppressing a smile that she was going to take up pedagogy. RUSSELL VATNSDAL Not since Newton discovered the law of gravita- tion has the world been so startled as when this prodigy of House F pulled down a one in Math. No less distinguished has been his social achieve- ment. Those acquainted with the innermost secrets of House C tell us that HGoogly is probably the most popular man on the campus today. Nor is this brilliant youth without athletic fame. In the game of handball he has repeatedly covered himself with glory. The college will miss Russell. PAULINE THOMA Is very pretty with a shy manner, a determined chin, and a way of smiling to herself. She gave sermons in her freshman public-speakingHclass.i and with her partner Isabel, managed the Caf in her Senior year. Pauline dodged the first tWO years and dormed the second two, hashed and cafed, thus becoming an all around Reedite. 5116 ranked highest among women in one 'Of the yearly psych. tests, and majored in EngllSh'

a GRIPPI CLYDE FOLEY 'Inlthe days of Harry Kenin, Clyde Foley was a power behind the throne of Daydodger ward politics. His austerity and quiet power was something akin to the Tammany William Murphy altho, of course, the analogy is not complete. When Harry left,Clyde seemed to lose his political heart. He changed his ma j or study from sociology to economics, completed his work, save for a thesis, in February. and sort of floated out into the gas business. The real contributions by men like Foley are never fully known. THEODORE ELIOT This minister's son majored in Biology and believed in Evolution long before he tooted the bugle at Reed's S. A. T. C. He has a penchant for collecting presidencies,-class, Bi Club, Chorus, and House. He plays handball like a fiend, sings best about midnight, and feeds fish thyroid at the experiment station. He still blushes, though a Biology assistant; and he knows more about antiprothrombin and enterokinase than anyone on earth. He is an assistant at the University of Kansas this semester; it is rumored that his advocacy in the House I uEgoist, of the Dean for the presidency of Reed caused him to accept this position half way across the continent.
