Twenty WILLIAM EDWARD SMITH GLOUCESTER, MASS. Admiral Farragut Academy VVhen Admiral Bill arrived on the campus, he established his crow's nest on the third floor of the Delta House. From that vantage point he has coolly observed the excitements that have come to life around him, never for one moment losing his poise or mistaking the wind velocity.

In this pleasant room he has carried on many activities ranging all the way from giving -Iagenburg aid in mathematics to print- ing The Pioneer.

This calm manner has stood him in good stead when ably assisting his roommate, Phil Messenkopf, in the latter's exhibitions of sleight of hand.

I r'vingfou High School Varsity Football 45 Varsity Baseball 4g The Argo 45 Ye Dial 43 Entering Rutgers Shorty , as he is affectionately known to one and all, has been a welcome addition to the third floor of the Delta House. Bob was one of the vest- pocket quarterbacks on Prep's football team, but his brilliant pigskin career was hampered by tall grass on the gridiron. Shorty would have made a good golfer too, but he was always falling into the cup. IOHN FRANK SCHMIDT NEW BRUNSWICK, N. I.

IVUZK' Bl'lHlS'ZK'il'h, High 5471001 Varsity Football 43 Varsity Baseball 4 Manny is the happiest boy in school. If you doubt this, you should watch him closely for a brief half hour, especially when Charlie Morfit is nearby.
