Gibson expects to enter Yale University this fall. His many friends at St. Chri.stopher's bid him a sorrowful good-bye, but feel sure that he will make a brilliant suc- cess of his college career. Go to it, Stuart, and good luck! - ' i221 H I 'S- T..x. ff- F -1' . SL' Iyar: -13: ' i ffy, r fi .51 ,J -.v J ' -1-I, ,gjf 'LV sv ii X-7 ...

During his stay at St. Christopheids Roswell has participated in all branches of school activities and has been a leader in everything in which he has taken part. But especially may We single out his athletic prowess. Roswell for the past two years has won his letter in football and has proved to be a mainstay of the team. He has been a member of the track team and during the past basketball season he held down the position of manager in a' creditable manner. V Athletics, however, ha.s not been the only activity in which is 'fl' the excels. He has held important positions on the Pine ' , , Needle, Annual Staffs, and is this year Secretary of the A' 'if , , ij, School Monogram Club.

C5 I The lamentably brief title above stands ,l for an unusually long and distinguished record at this school. As a wee tot Dixie waddled into harness in the Lower School in the year 1918. And ther lad waxed strong in body and spirit. At -an early date Dick showed great promise of athletic prowess. He was high-point man in his class at every field, day until his feet grew appallingly large and ponderous. There is and has been no branch of athletics in the school in which Dixie has not taken part and done well. He reached his prime last year in basketball when he made his Varsity letter by a season's hard work and fight, and this year, as captain, led the St. C. quint in an 2 F if ,jg Y' illustrious fashion. Enough of his athletic recordl' fy 4 -i- - .' .B H, Dixie's scholastic record has, while he has been in the M.,LrSg. , 'Y imc school, ever been of the .highest order, and he has never '-1 jjj, 1 left commencement exercises without a certificate of Spe- tmg-,'f -QZ' ,M cial Distinction. He is a forceful orator, excellent ?j,,.AQ,g,f, l writer, and an invaluable student in the school. -i?.L.?4E' -ffl - 1.-f IT 1 - Dick plans to go to Yale next fall, and we expect him to establish a fine reputation' for old St. C. there. The , school will not seem the same with the absence of an old i fifj veteran. like Dixie. Don't get too snooty, Dick boy, and visit your Alma Mater often. 'Ye -' . W fst'.sf-if- i i23l
