It is indeed diflicult to put into so small a space the many accomplishments and attributes of liugene Sydnor. liver since he entered St. Christopher's eleven years ago, he has stood out as a leader. Modest and unassuming. he is popular with everyone, and nobody is held in higher rcpute by his fellow students than he. Syd particularly excels in his studies. lt is a common sight to see him walk oil with an armful of prizes at every commencement. Nor does he have to toil to a great extent, but rather possesses a natural ability which never fails him. As strange as it may seem, Syd shines in athletics almost as brightly as in his classes. ln football, he is one of the best centers ever to don the Red and Gray. As Captain of the Tennis Team the last two years, he has contributed much to the success of our raeketeers. OO- CARTER E. TALMAN, Ia.

Happy-go-lucky, laughable, yet sometimes moody, al- ways conscientious in all his work, whether scholastic or athletic, at perfect ease with the fairer sex, yet prefer- ring the company of boys, a never-ending source of cheer- fulness to all those around him-that's Carter Talman. He participates in athletics every year, being best prob- ably in tennis. His slight build hinders him in football, but he never fails to work hard throughout the season. He played his share of basketball this season, easily win- ning his Varsity C, And when spring rolls around, Nick can always be found swatting tennis balls on the courts of the Country Club. Although there is a chance of his returning as a post- graduate next year, he will probably go to the University of Virginia. May he make the Dean's List every se- mesterl

No, Curtis is exactly the opposite: modest and always retiring he still commands the respect and admiration ol' his friends. Athlete and scholar, he has made his mark in every activity that he has taken part in. ln the way ol' sports he is a three-letter man with track, of which team he is Captain this year, his strong suit. Practically a track squad in himself, he has been the team's leading point scorer for the last tivo years. ln a literary line, his ac- complishments have heen just as great, this year he cli- maxed them hy heing President ol' the Iackson Society and Co-liditor of the Annual.

Scarcely a week had passed before one of the School wits--with :1 great number of whom we seem to be fortunately blessed -placed in front of this young man's cognomen a com- mon enough nickname. By this familiar title Pop has ever since been universally known, and we are perfectly willing to stack our Warner up against the great grid- iron expert of that name. Possessed of a dry humor and a frank and friendly nature he has become a favorite with us all. in baseball he has followed in the footsteps of his rural predecessors by always playing a stellar brand of ball. Hut in addition, his wit, pep, and color have been in no small manner responsible for the success of the team and the attendance at the games. And so, it is with genuine regret that we say farewell to Pop Warner, the pal of every one. f' . .. , . . l ur.rl'ly IFIIUIINIH, '35, 'J-1: l.lfl 'fU'3' IWW- 35- HHH 1'l1f1'P' Ilnlcr l.11ir'i'r.riIy. Three years ago the brothers Webster joined the ranks of this great Westhampton institution. Last year Preston left the fold with honors, and now after only one more year Chris is following in his brother's footsteps. This younger brother's keen mind and general scholastic ability have helped to gain him a prominent position in his classes, while his powerful physique and willingness to learn have combined to make him known as a he-man on the athletic field of battle. As a mem- ber of the staffs of both the School publications, he has done good work, particularly as Alumni Editor of the Pina' N eedle. But long after Webby's records are past history, his cheery smile and constant good nature will be remem- bered with pleasure by all with whom he has come in contact. His affability and humor have made him popu- lar with every one at St. Christopher's.
