Two years ago Lowry arrived at old St. Christopher's School from a more or less imknown place-Bedfordg but since that time he has made us all acquainted with the fact that there 1S such a place. - As soon as he arrived, Henry began to take a prominent part in the affairs of the schoolg he became a member of the Football Squad, and although not on the team. showed fine spirit throughout the season. He early displayed an interest and aptitude for dramatics, taking a minor part in last year's production and a very important and difficult one in Going Crooked, this year's thespian offering. This spring' he has a prominent place on the Track Squad, which is as yetian unknown quantity. . Besides taking part in these more or less athletic diversions, Henry has shown an interest in higher CPD things g he was chosen one of the five boys to represent St. Christopher's School at the conference at Alexandria, and has taken an interested part in the meetings of the two Literary Societiesg in fact, it might be said that Lowry has taken advantage of every opportunity offered him for advancement. We all wish Henry Clay Lowry the best of luck at the University, and if he loses none of his powers of argument, we are sure he will be a fine lawyer, as was his illustrious namesake. l24l I Q9 WH ' f V If L , 4 S

And now, gentle reader, appears before us one whose formal title you may read above as John P. Leary, but who is known to us simply as Jack, or better still as Jake g he of the brawny arm and mighty physique. , It was some eight years ago when Jack appeared on the threshold of this institution as a new boy. During these years he has made a name for himself , and through his cheerful, good- natured disposition, he has won a veritable host of friends and admirers. Jack has entered into' nearly every branch of school activity, and has excelled in everything he has undertaken. He early showed athletic prowess, twice winning the covetrl C in football, and being for the past ,two seasons an outstanding member of the baseball and basketball teams. r But athletics is by no means the only tield in which our friend of the handsome Visage excels. Oh my, no! 'fIake has for two years done good work on the Pine lVeaa'le, where his services will be greatly missed in years to come. Besides this he is' a director of the Mis- sionary Society, and last,rbut certainly not least, he is a member of that worthy assemblage known as the Stuclent'Council. In short, Jack is a leader whose place will be difficult to hll next year. Leary is slated to attend V. M. I. next fall, where we know he willl continue his good record. We're with you, Jack! Come back some time and tell us how it feels to be a keydet. ' L 231 , QQGPHI J XSDQ a f 5 Futa ba 4

GUTHRIE LUKE RICHIXIOND, VA. 1 year Lee Literary Societyg Missionary Societyg Varsity Football Squad, '28, ' Behold, Ladies and Gentlemen, the noble visage of Maryland's very best! Though Gus has been with us but one short year, he has made innumerable friends. He has. a decided talent for the manly art of bul1ing, and always has some new story about how he made his Chryslen step it up to ninety, thereby eluding a posse of speed cops. Gus is also a fast worker with the fair sex, and many are the hearts that have beat faster when he was around. At the beginning of the footballtseason Luke came out with the rest of us, and though unable to make the team, he was a hard working scrub and gave the best that was in him. You have not decided what you will do next year, Gus, but wherever you go, or whatever you do fespeeially in the red Chrysler on one of these moonlit nightsj, remember that our best wishes are with you, and that we always hope for your success. f25fj 'QPU J ' : VCV jbgaxfebr' .f G' 5 5 h -QFNIIRQQ
