He is always on good terms with everyone: he cheers up any group of which he is a memberg in short, he is a boy with a sunny disposition. Bunny is a real scholar. A hard worker, naturally keen and quick to think, he has ever been near the top of his form. Frivolous does not apply to him when it comes to his work, for a more serious and constant worker than he would be hard to find. ln his athletics Bunny is an equally hard worker. For two years he has faithfully and perseveringly plugged away at football and barely missed getting his letter. He played in several games. Bunny is a real trackster. For three years he has devoted his time in the spring to track, and this year he was one of the chief cogs in the team. Before we close this little resume of john Randolph Tucker, we must men- tion his splendid work this year in A Clzararfer Iiifrxnlav and in .the Scream. In the Play he made a perfect German meatman, and the School will remember for many a year his characterizations in the .S'rrem11.
