ROBERT W. HENLEY Tappahannock, Va. 4 YEARS Lvl' Lilvrary ,S'nr1'1'ly,' 1'Wf.V.ff0lllII'j' .S'm'ivty,' Bulldog Football Tram, '29, '30g Vnr.v'ly lfontlmll Squad, '3l: Varsily Track Squad, '3lg Varsity Basvlwall Stjlllllf, '32, HENLEY IS one of those retiring boys who are not particularly noticed when around you, but whose presence is such a necessary addition to the every-day life of St. Christo- pher's that they would be sorely missed if suddenly withdrawn from our midst. He is an exceedingly serious type of boy, the kind that is most likely to succeed in life. Not for- ward in any way, Bob has perhaps wrongly impressed his fellow students as being of a rather moody and gloomy nature. But in reality Bob is only seriously intent on his work, anxious to make good in his own way, and to realize his ambition. Henley is perhaps one of the most conscientious boys in the School. He has always set about his lessons with a will, realizing, as we all should, that we are put here for our own good, not for someone else's. Though not particularly athletic, Bob has striven hard in the various sports, and we are inclined to believe that, if he were returning to St. Christopher's next year, he would provide valuable material for the Varsity eleven. However, Bob is bent on getting to college, and we regret that we must do without his services next fall. He had never played any football before coming here, and, considering the short while he has been with us, we are glad to acknowledge a very rapid develop- ment on his part. But in baseball he comes into his own, as usual with the boys from Tappahannock. We are counting on Bob to help make the Varsity nine of some credit to the School this spring. We believe Bob is planning to matriculate at William and Mary next fall. Our best wishes go with him. l22l 5 F Z Q - Q - H 1 - Q - - QQ Q X 9 Y u .-1 ijt-Li.,-1-.

Chamberlayne. For twelve years now Eddie has taken nearly all of the Form prizes and a few others on the side. When a Seventh Former can eke out a grade higher than Eddie's, he knows that he has done something to write home about. 'Some would think that to do so well. Eddie would have to spend all his time pre- paring lessons, but this is far from the truth. ' . Limited in the Held of sports by illness, Eddie has turned his mind to other School activities, and in them he has made a name for himself. As Co-Editor of the Pine Needle he has done unusually fine work. His editorials have been instructive and interesting' to all of us, including the teachers. For two years he has been a Director of the Missionary Society, and co-operating with his brother directors he has pulled us through a rather dlfiicult year. Furthermore, he is on the Student Honor Committee, Literary Editor of RAPS AND TAPS, and a member of the Lee Literary Society. All in all, Eddie has entered into every activity possible, and has gained honor both f01' himself and his School. There is nothing left for him to do at Schoolg we can't hold him any longer! Like fiherest of the Seniors, he will pass on and conquer greater fields, no longer restricted by a white fence. But don't forget us, Eddie, Come back and see us, for we will be expecting YOU- Eddie is planning to enter the University of Virginia next year, and we feel sure that fine reports will come down of his scholarship at that institution.
