HERE WE HAVE BEFORE US the distinguished features of none other than Beverley Ran- dolph Wellford Marshall, III! Some years ago, a small boy, hiding behind this massive array of alphabet, entered St. Christopher's. Now' Beverley is a Senior, and no boy in School is more generally liked. Though he has not been able to take a very active part in athletics, Marshall has been one of the most faithful supporters of every St. Christophcr's team. A football, basketball, or baseball game, or a track meet, or a tennis match, would not be complete without Marshall on the sidelines. Last year, too, he was a member of the Track Squad, and he will probably be out for practice again this spring. And he has been an Assistant Manager of Football, and as such proved himself valuable. St. Christopher's will suffer a great loss by Marshall's graduation. Though his in- fluence is not as blatantly blared as some, it is none the less felt. Marshall is always ready to help a friend, his cheerful smile is a never-failing gloom-chaser. And again, he is a sturdy upholder of St. Christopher's and all its works, never do you hear him knocking, Not content with interesting himself in sports, he attends most school func- tions, his presence at the play, the Scream, the Missionary Society meetings, is a cus- tomary sight. We don't know what your plans are for next year, Beverley, but we feel sure that you will make a success in college or business. Here's mud in your eye! E251 is 'X , f 1:22 ' . . P' X EE - i ' 2 12 .

WALTER L. LEFEW, Jr. Richmond, Va. 5 YEARS Ji7t'A'.VOIl 1.ifl'l'Ul'.l' Sm'ivly,' .?W1..YXI'!lIllIl'j' Sm'ivly,' Rubs and 7'ap.v Stuff, '30. '31, ,323 Pina Ni'vd!i ' Slajf, '30, '31, '32. ABOUT FIVE YEARS AGO, a very modest, unassuming boy entered the sacred portals of Doctor's one and only, and registered under the name of Walter Lefew.. Since then. he has developed and broadened his interests, in his own quiet way, so that now Walter is quite a man of the world. He is popular and very well liked by the boys, and when he leaves to go out upon the road of life, he will leave a kind of emptiness in the hearts of those who knew him well. ,P Unfortunately. Walter was not fitted for an athletic career on ac':o'int of his slight build, but this didn't stop him from entering into other activities which were more in his line. He is probably best known as an artist of high caliber. As a member of the Pine Needle and RAPS AND TAPS staffs, he has been upholding the excellent record and prestige of their art boards for the past two years by contributing fine drawings., He has also contributed extremely well-done posters, advertising the School play and the far-famed Scream. These drawings and posters are not easy things to do, and it is a rare thing to come in contact with a person who can do them so consistently well as Walter. Besides being on the staffs of the Schoo1's literary efforts, Lefew is an esteemed mem- ber of the Missionary Society and of that grand old organization, the Jackson Literary Society. Walter is considering several colleges at present, ,but is as yet undecided where he will go. No matter what institution he attends, he will know that he carries with him the hearty good wishes and the high esteem of his friends and former classmates.

HERE WE SEE the handsome countenance of our well-known sheik of Westhampton-John Barry Purcell, Esq., himself, in person! Gaze upon his features with awe, gentle peruser of this fair volumeg for J, B. has attended school at St. Christopher's for no less than thirteen years! Besides his wide-spread renown as a sheik, John has distinguished himself in other ways. He is a valuable member of both the Pine Needle staff and the RAPS AND TAPS stalfg he is Treasurer of the Missionary Societyg he is a member of the Student Honor Committee. John has shown great talent in handling money and in business affairs, both the School play and the Scream would have suffered without John to handle the busi- ness end. Besides taking part in these numerous activities, John is a good student, and is well in the upper half of his class. His ever-present cheerfulness. his willingness to do any- thing in his power to help a friend. have endeared him to St. Christonher's. Purcell's prowess with the fairer sex is nothing short of awe-inspiring. They say that half the girls in Richmond sit with palpitating hearts by the telephone. waiting for John to call themg nicht wahr, John? And then the maidens of Virginia Beach--but these would fill several books. Suffice it to say that John is quite a toast with the ladies. We'll certainly hate to lose you next year, Johng we'll still be needing treasurers and business managers next year, and it'll be hard to find anybody to take your place. And then one of the landmarks of St. Christopher's will be gone-the boy who survived thir- teen years here! But we know you'll make good at Virginia, John. Here's to you!
