gauge W . h, L VX' -$:: 1y, Page Th irty-four CECIL THOMAS KELLY PARKDALE Study this languid pose. Doesnit it'look the lazy genius, shiftless, never enthu31ast1c? Thls icture does not lie, and yet Cecil is a math shark, though he has never been caught studying. And would you believe that on track or basketball Hoor he is the relentless pursuer of sure Victory? It seems ridiculous, but it isntt. Early in his Soph year he. adopted a seat in the library that commands a charming View. He may be found there again after 9:30, but it is Hoors, not books, that busy him. A hard winter at home made him master of a Chandler, which helps make courting easy. He is a silent chap, but hell be heard from yet. DOROTHY DELL ROSSMAN PORTLAND Dorothy Dell is another of our latest acquisi- tions. She deserted Sunny Cal. in her next to the last year for the pleasures and perils of an oral and thesis at Reed. We discovered her histrionic talents soon after her arrival,when she amused us with some funny lingo at the Dorm bonfire. After Suppressed Desires we feared her psycho-analytical powers for days. Dorothy has a positive genius for making other people work. She is famous on the campus for her wear-ever smile, no doubt the result of long exposure to a sunny climate. HOBART EDWARD BENSON PORTLAND We present Coop Benson, otherwise known as Fifi, Svensky, Little Cleo, and in stupendous moments, Hobart. His preposterous elongation tCoop likes big wordsi has made him an imposing figure on the football field or under the baskets. But he has greater glories. As a co-op manager he takes the crocheted tennis racket. He can make a ten per cent dividend absolutely painful. No woman has ever stepped with Hobart twice consecutiyely. His date-list prevents such a peril- ous experlence. Hets the best wetve got.

She has been in consistent de- mand as a Chairman of decoration committees, her big achievement being last yearls Prom. Helen makes a dreadful furore when she is about to study but can be readily distracted if there is something good afoot. She is vivacious, but does not giggle. Although a heartbreaker, she is so with such skill that she leaves her victims at once addled and contrite. We can Visualize Little Kaye as a schoolmalm. WILLIAM TREADWELL STONE NEW YORK CITY Bill is our all-around man. Only among the hashers has his name been missing. Run down the list of activitieSefootball, basketball, clubs of all sorts, council, mop-pushers-and you will find his name at or near the top. As editor of the Quest he rejuvenated that former self-perpetuat- ing oligarchy and made it an all-campus nuisance. He larded in his college career with a trip to England. Bill has been the author of much re- prehensible publicity about us in small-town newspapers. He does all these things, but on what will always be a mystery. We nominate him for the campus Hall of Fame. GERTRUDE BREHAUT ROBERTSON PORTLAND Mrs. Robertson has the distinction of having come farther to get her degree from Reed than any other of us. Her first college work was done at Prince ofWales College, Prince Edward Island. For her thesis research Mrs. Robertson has adopted whole families ofsnails, and she has them in residence under almost any of the dr00ping cedar trees hereabouts. They react very well to her faithful care, even salty soup failing to daunt them. Mrs. Robertson formerly lived in the dorm, but now she does a daily constitutional up the Woodstock hill.

For four years we,ve known her this way. Nothing ruHies her. Not even class oHices, the arduous duties 0fthe President ofthe A. R. A., or four years of daydodging. This year Edith is busy off the campus assisting Dr. Warner at her nutrition Clinic, and conducting evening gym classes. Forewarned is forearmed, thinks Edie; accord- ingly she has her thesis half-done at Christmas. We understand that she is on at least friendly terms with the Reed Day hack. BERTHA MARGARET HAYS PORTLAND The crop of math sharks is good this year. Here is one. Bertha spends her time trying to prove that the shortest distance between two points is a parabola. Or she guides the Freshmen through the mysteries of differentiation and integration. She is an inveterate daydodger, and lets not even that disturb the serene tenor of her way. She is a student from A to Z. MIGNON HOOVER ELIOT PORTLAND This demure maid is one of our most versatile members. When she is not studying she designs artistic sets for the Drama Club, does posters, is frankly literary, or just naturally plays around. In the good old days of the Freshman lawn party, Miggy was the possessor of a row of quaint curls and was a student first, last, and always. Now she is taking a conversation course with her Anna Mann sisters. And occassionally we even discover her embroidering. Mignon scorns grape- nuts or Toke Points when she can have Hersheys for brain food. Present indications are that she will never change her name. There,s a reason. Page Thirty-five
