I 'TwAs BACK IN 1919 that one John Armistead procured enrollment as a student in the Lower A y School. There, for a number of years, under the watchful eye of Miss Bouldin, he received f careful and detailed instruction which enabled him to enter the Upper School full rc ared fo . . . . Y P P Y' ' , the hard work ahead. Since then, by virtue of his steadfast devotion and loyalty to his School, PI, ,ff Jack has steadily shoved to the front, and during the past year his influence has been felt in .if more than one way. K 2-3. To those who realize the extremely distressing condition into which the Raps and Taps .fd N was thrust at the beginning of the year, the highly effective manner in which Jack succeeded rj f X 'n placing his School annual again on a firm basis was one of his most creditable accomplish- Q X ments. Jack shouldered a heavy responsibility when he undertook the role of Editor-in-Chief J-A, .gf the 1931 Raps and Ta-ps, but his high degree of efiiciency has certainly justified the choice. -' , o the editor goes a large share of the credit for the success of the St. Christopher's Scream, f' ' hich greatly relieved the financial embarrassment of the annual. , KJ Other noteworthy positions held by Armistead are his memberships on the Pine Needle QQ wx, ' taff, on the Student Honor Committee and in the Monogram Club. In addition, he filled the o ce of Vice-President of the Jackson Literary Society. But by no means have Jack's lt a tivities been confined indoors. Although handicapped in football for several years by re- 5 f ' o curing injuries, Jack crashed through last fall and played regular center for the Saints as I , i has not been played since the days of Tom Darst. His aggressiveness on the offense and his 1 F 1 ll-dog determination on the defense manifested itself throughout the season, X I X We understand that Jack's.plans will take himgto V. M. ll. next year. With him go our good al . f I ff f ishes and confidence that his friendly disposition and likable personality will be of great ,y i I ff rj K sslstancc to him in earning the respect of his fellow Cadets.

BAKER HALLSBOR0, vs. 4 years Mis.rionary Socielyg Lee Literary Soeiefyg Flea Football Squad, '273 Bull- dog Baseball Squad, '28, '29g Bulldog Football Squad, '28, '29g Va-rsity Base- ball Squad, '30g Assistant Manager Varsity Football, '30: Varsity Track Q' ' Squad, '31 3 Pine Need1c ' Staff Smoleing Club. ' l mf STUART BAKER awremzn 'masi-1 I-IALLS of erudite opportunity four years ago from Hallsboro, im Va. Sam, ever since his first year here, has proved himself a remarkable student. He has Q i is really distinguished himself. For three years he has stood second in his class, and he , ' KS has done as well, if not better, in this his last year. Stuart is not merely a student. He has 1 A K always taken an active part in all School activities. Although Sam has frequently been prohibited by doctor's orders from taking much exercise, he has displayed notable ability whenever allowed W to participate in any form of athletics. He has served as Assistant Manager of both the Varsity baseball and football teams. He held a responsible position on the Pine Needle Staff ia, this year, and his many contributions have helped immeasurably to hold this publication up to its usual high standard of excellency. We could go on enumerating Baker's many honors and X ,Al 5 achievements, but we have not the space necessary, and besides, all good things must come to l X an end. Let it be sufficient to say that Stuart always has been an active and reliable participait 'f in all phases of School life. XA X8 7 DJ Always good-natured and witty, Sam has formed many firm friendships. His humor ' f A I both spontaneous and contagious, and his good nature makes him one of the most liked and r - l f spected boys in School. He is never more at home than when he is on a dance Hoor, where literally sweeps the girls off their feet. Many times he has been accused of stealing the hearlktrx Q x ?' of the fair ones even while their escorts are near. Many an aspiring youth has soughlxx J X to imitate Sam's successful methods with the skirts, but all finally admit that they lack the ' ' M X indefinable something with which he attracts them. l f ff X Next year Stuart intends to enter the University of Virginia. This School can send not l ,, l 1 K ' better representative in our opinion. We know that he will be a success there, and also in what!
