Luke had arrived. But such a difference between that Luke and the NG I Gus we know today! From a non-athletic. shy boy, Luke has, in the space of two short years, nfl' If y developed into one of the personalities of the School. bgwdl X i XVhen he hrst came, he went out for football and showed such remarkable improvement .1 X Z-i f' and fight that he played in most of the games and almost won his letter. He came back again r' N X this year to finish the good work, and took quite a large part in helping the Crimson Tide ' f X roll up its enviable record. But Gus didn't stop there! I-le went ahead and was elected 'J X X Manager of basketball, and his eflicient work made him a very popular one. :NP , Luke and his roadster have grown to be almost an institution at St. Christopher's and, may 'J 'we add, quite a stumbling block for the fair-haired beauties. Those brown eyes have broken ,'J frail hearts without number, and his conquests have ranged far and wide, so we will not be the fr only ones to lament his going. He was a member of this year's Monogram Club, and his U ood-naturedness and willingness made him a great favorite among the boys. ' ff Gus, old boy, I guess it is time to say bout T'0j'UgL', but not goodbyeg for with your Vt f c eparture upon the long road of life, you will leave with us, back here at School,'the brightest y I iemories, and we hope that you will do as well out in the world as you did hCl'0Z Zlllfl I? 1 ' fwe hope that we will not only hear from you, but see you often in the future.

Our only worry is that since the handsome forehead insists on elongating itself, our L2-f young Apollo might turn out to be a rival of our Headmaster instead of the winner of a beauty prize. In addition to his looks, Lip is an excellent athlete, a Fine scholar, and among the best il l 5 . . . . l 5 in School in the literary line. X X Q' For the past two years Bernard has held down a halfback position on the football tea n, ' B where his hard tackling and consistent ball-toting has been of great value to the team. Li also shines on the cinder path. He amassed quite a few points last spring and we are expect'i g , great things of him this season. ? , For the past two years Bernard has been a member of both the Rafts and Trim and t ' X l J Pine Needle Staffs. He has a very facile pen, and his articles are among the wittiest. Besit ' N all this, our curly-haired hero is President of the Jackson Literary Society--which position e M X admirably hlls-, a member of the Honor Committee, an ollicer of the Missionary Society, aid ' K a member of the Literary team. This position he- secured by winning the reading contest th's year. Bernard is one of the most popular boys in School. and we know that if he goesst QQ college next year, Virginia will be most fortunate in having him in her midst. x. , I I --'ff V W X f fa B K :lf-1 V ,- f A fgm ,WVK 1 l 25 l ,'f4LL J , 'll' ' I H, a diff---- 4 ,AW ',,.,hK '4- Q ' rf. , X ' ii: ' . 1 -' vig X 5 ll, 1 ..

H To 'rnosn or You wuo Asvliuc la an athletic career, take as a shining' example Frank Meacham. For sheer brilliancy in the field of athletics, there have been but two who could hold their own against Frank in the history of the School. It has been said ot' Frank that he does everything well, we say not well, but excellently. He is the possessor of five Varsity football letters, and has been one of the stars of the prep school lirmament. being selected for the All-City eleven, as well as winning honorable men- tion for the All-State. Truly he IS a star to be feared by any team whether he is in the back- , I ll, l i , 'll ' field or the line. X g 3 As a track man he has added many points to St. Cbristopher's score, both in field and tra k events. So in baseball, whether he occupied the mound, caught, or played in the outlield, le , -RX! i was a brilliant performer. l Z I Add to these honors Frank's presidency' of the Monogram Club, his extreme popular' ,, I I his likeable nature, and you have a characteristic sketch of Frank Meacham. Bnt he is alwks X x I modest, really a person whom one must know well to appreciate his man cnalities. X X y 1 ,p X X I I M 'We could go on ennmcrating Frank's many honors, bnt everything must have an end. XVe t ' V 'x don't know where he plans to go after leaving School, but to lnm we extend our best wish s 7 fl 9 Z for a happy career, and may his successes in life parallel his achievements at School.
