Page Thirty-e ight CLINTON ABRAHAM WILSON PORTLAND We expect great things from Clint. Like a good pre-medic, he is a real student. He deserted G because F was too noisy, and retired to the heating plant as Chief Stoker. If the heat gives out prematurely, there are lively suspicions that Clint has gone courting. Besides rivalling old Jonathan Swift satirically, he has the horse beat at his own neigh. In a few more years when the horse is extinct this will be a valuable talent. Abe is a stranger here; Kansas is his home. LORRAINE HINSON PORTLAND Lorraine passed us up for three years while she went to McMinnvilleenow Linheldefor the easy part of her education. But this year she thought it would be fun to write a thesis. And so, being unused to Reed custom, her thesis was done long since. History is her chief interest, but we presume that she does not live entirely in the past. You may identify her by her red- gold hair, her freckles, and owlish horn-rims. HOLLAND HERMAN HOUSTON PORTLAND When in need call on Holland. He will deco- rate for parties, mend automobiles, or meet timid ladies at the street car. Hs is a jack-of-all-trades in your emergency. Being an all-star in football and basketball is old stuff for him-student body finances ditto. As an assistant in the physics department he has guided many an experiment to a tedious conclusion. Long residence in House F has made Houstie death on rolling hell-bats.

She is a devotee of those who believe that anything that is worth doing at all is worth doing slowly. And she is neat! If we didnlt know her better we should suspect her of cats and canary birds. Decoratively Ruth achieved a triumph for House A last year in the canoe carnival. Her prowess in athletics is pro- digious. Baseball and tumbling is her line. Ruth is a convert from O. A. C. JOHN CALHOUN VAN ETTEN REED COLLEGE John Van antedates most of the faculty. He makes no bones about being perfectly at home, and is the bane of the Commons. College is a serious business for John, and his thesis has been postponed these many years because of the numerous demands on his time. He has manu- factured toy airplanes, built houses, and taught manual training. But a recent trip East sug- gests that John is about to settle down. He is an ardent advocate of campus discipline, and a vigilant watchdog of the unit treasury. If he ever follows up his prowess and boxes profession- ally, he will be known as Gentleman John. HARRIET ELIZABETH GORE MEDFORD The slickest girl in the class. Liz could make murder attractive. During her four years she has defied a point system. Quest, council and now the class-secretaryship have drawn upon her abilities and enthusiasms. But while she shines in these, she dazzles in the chorus. As director Betty takes forty raw voices and turns out a finished choir. She even wields the baton for Fair Reed. But all this has left her unspoiled and naive. Only with grave misgivings did she take even to hairnets. Betty would hate to be one of the mob. One of our choicest memories will always be Betty playing Kammenoi Ostrow with Lucile.

If you are burdened with a complex or psychopathy consult Kather- ine. Eccel She is the most audacious girl in the class. She dares to wear her hair with a Fiji cut even in the face of her approach to the Madame Grundy, jobgiving world. Furthermore she has lately ventured to move into House D after the laissez-faire life of the daydodger. As a result of her thesis research she has a dangerous line on most of us. FORREST LLOYD FOSTER PORTLAND This is our student body prex, and as such is the perpetrator of the handbook and autocrat of the council. He is an old-timer, dating from before the war. Forrest is no mean actor. Re- member ,Obson? He has tried I and G, but now he cranks his rusty steed and does a daily Lochinvar. He has atavistic tendencies as to dress, but they seem no handicap. Remantically he is static. GRACE LINKLATER PORTLAND Grace stayed with us to work and play for three years, but this year she decided to climb the hill to the medical school daily instead. But even so she has the advantage of a frequent source of information about the rest of us, and we of Grace. However, during her stay here she ac- cumulated enough credits to come back and take her degree with us. Grace has an all-consuming ambition, to become a doctor of medicine. She was an active participant in college activities, being crowned with a Junior councilorship in her last year. Page Th irty-n inc
