'14 fb Here we look upon the manly counte- E nance of Lewis Bristow, who, after be- ing one of the mainstays of St. Chris- topher's student body for many years, is now ready to return to the wilds of Tappa- hannock, whence he sprang. To Bris belongs the honor of being one of the greatest athletes St. C'lii'istopher's has ever produced. His record is long and impressive. He has made four letters- in football and was captain of the team in '27 and '28. For two sudcessive years he Was on the mythical All-City team, and in 1927 he was given a place on the All- Southern eleven. His record in baseball is almost as astonishing. He has received five C's in this sport, and he is now captain of this year's team. Another proof of Bristow's athletic prowess is the letter he received in track in l927. To us who are less gifted, this seems more than any one boy could possibly do. But Lewis has made his influence felt in other departments of school life as well. He was elected to the Student Council in '26, and he was chairman of that body in '28. He is also a director of the lVIissionary Society. I could go on enumerating the positions which Bris has held, but it would be an almost endless task. lt' will be a great loss to St. Christopher's when you leave, Bris, but we know you are going ahead to new con- quests, and We wish you honor and success in Whatever you may undertake.

He started in the Lower School and worked quietly and unassum- ingly to prominent positions in the school. Last year, as a member of the Debating .l I Team, his Howing oratory made him one , of the most powerful speakers ever put up by the school. His clear and concise articles for The Pine Needle have gained for him a sudden reputation. Above all, however, is his almost unprecedented scholastic standing. He trembles and shudders for fear that next month he might fall as 5 'Iv ..4.':21 ' fi-ff ' Sf, 3513 E4 if-, , ,khan-:qi V X jigfalf Pt+1-.15-or 'S 5, 'H . . N55 Y s J 'lion-dig?

He became President of the Senior Form Privy Council because of his scholastic abilities. Many is the time that learned Robert has come to the aid of some mentally degenerate classmate, for his goodness in this practice' is unbounded. ' Feeling that his education would not be complete With- out some association with those of the fairer sex, he set about this training so earnestly and so seriously that his family became alarmed. He is now a Lothario with any of them. Next year Bob will be at the University of Virginia, where he is expected to establish an even more enviable record than he has at St. Christopher's. in mi,

MM C3 Here we see the distinguished features of Nathaniel Coleman Brydon, in per- son. About iour years ago Nat ap- peared at the entrance of ole St. C. Sf, and desired to be admitted into the fold. Few realized what a treasure we Were getting when Nat was enrolled among V the students of this school. The four years that have elapsed since that day , have produced a very remarkable change in the Ginter Park representative. A small, unassuming, bashful boy entered, and now a husky, jolly, esteemed senior is leaving. Nat has the lucky faculty of making friends with every one with Whom he comes in contact-but he has carried this faculty entirely too far. There will be many broken hearts when he fails to return here next fall. Nat,' is always in a good humor and ready to laugh at the slightest thing that strikes him as funny. ' 'J' in -V 5- fi But, alasl Nat is always the latest of the late. During --ef-N the Whole time that he was a day boy he was never known to get to school on. time a single day, and he has 1 :diggs 2- l li , done nearly as badly about getting to breakfast since he l . , C ' ' u became a boarderg but, being a relative of the Headmas- l ,,. 'I ter, he could usually get off with a weak, AW, Doctor, A 1 just missed the car by about two minutes. ' ,f.......f fi' It must also be mentioned that Nat played mighty well , i A g' A li f on the football team, and that the only boys who bear 'ik ' Wag., him a grudge are those who have spent considerable time i i H 'k'7.lgj,, . ' nursing bruises inflicted by our able end. WVell, Nat, we wish you the success and happiness that you certainly deserve wherever you go. Remember, Cum ut fuir sis -you always were a shark at French. l 19 l .
