AISOXIE, you sec tl1e visage olf a boy who has always had the interests of St. Christopl1er's School at heart. Pee-WVee has been with us for over a decade IIOW, and it is with no little reluctance that we give him up. In spite of his slightness of stature, John has proved himself a man olf courage and earnestncss. In football he was l1indered by injuries which would have made most of us I'old up, but not Wighty. He stuck in there Hrockin' 'em and sockin' 'CIILH and by the end olf tl1e season he was a mainstay in tl1e backlield. In baseball he displayed this same spirit, and as Alternate Captain, helped lead the team through a successful season. As distribution manager of the Pine Nrfmlle l1e was excellent. I11 his studies he has done equally as well. Putting all he has into his every undertaking, John keeps plugging, while others fall by the wayside. Determination and perseverance are l1is prevalent cllaracteristics, and these are tl1e qualities that bring him to the fore. We know we are going to hear much more from Wighty at the University of Virginia. Drop in to see us olten at St. C. next year, Pee-Wee.

HERE WE have one of the great and illustrious Vaughan clan. WVarren's outstanding and many-sided talents plus his willingness and readiness to apply them have made him one ol' our most accomplished Seniors. When problems arise that make most ol' us sweat and tear our hair, Warren solves them with no apparent ellort, at all, and when a need for a hard worker arises, he is always ready to do much more than his share. In enumerating his many accomplishments, we scarcely know where to begin. Scholastically he has always stood with the highest. In the literary line, he served the Pine Nmfzllzf well in the position olf Literary Editor and as a writer was the peer ol' any one on the stall. The snapshots that bedeck the pages ol' this volume testify to his ability in the photographic line. Although he took no leading roles in the St. Kits' productions, the Dramatic Club owes him a debt ol gratitude for his service in business management and in bit parts. He is exceptionally talented in the lield ol' music, having ability to play almost any musical instrument. In athletics he has participated in football, basketball, baseball, and track. His constant good humor and willingness to help the other fellow have made him universally well-liked. Congratulations to Harvard on getting one of the best ol This Year's Crop ol Seniors!

And whatever ntay have been said of the others, we can conhdently say ol' VVoodward, he is the greatest Roman ol' them all. Fifteen years he has seen the dormitory lights go out and end another school day. During that era he has waxed strong in all the virtues that make a man and at the same time imparted to school life something of his own sell. Although not an especially serious student, Minor has never had over- much trouble with his schoolwork. I-Ie is in his prime, however, in any lform ol' athletic competition, being at present the only four-letter man in school. During the football season, he kept the spectators on the edges of their seats with his spectacular running and blocking and the utter abandon with which he threw himsell' at the opposing ball-carriers. His lootwork on the gym-floor throughout the basketball season stood the team in good stead. As a baseball player, he a sure-hitting outfielder, and in time ol' emergency, a pitcher. As for his attainments in track-let it suffice to say that he places high in over half the scheduled events of the track meets. Adios, John Minor. You came here, a childg you walk forth, a man. W
