This taciturnity, how- ever, gives no indication of his many talents. Roy has been on the honor roll constantly since his entrance into the Institute. Much of Royls spare time is devoted to his favorite hobby, photography, which is one of his main interests outside of school activities. Royls other outside activities include skating and danc- ing and he may be found doing these whenever time permits. He is active in sports, both in and out of school, having played interclass basketball every year.
