TnoMAs BARIIAM ANG1-:LL GKJDFRPJY Harvard Eyes closed, nose passionately averted, ear cocked, and Godfrey is off on his third movement. Our hero is passion- ately interested in anything artistic: painting, sketching, architecture, and classical music. His Bohemian qualities are attested to by a blue hat, yellow bow tic, dark green shirt, and a peerless checkered coat. Yet we despair for Godfrey the artist, for Wranky is too passionately interested in keep- ing out of trouble. In any dispute he always lands on the law's side. Alas, if it were not for the pillow fights and encounters with a certain insect we might dub him the worst of the Babbitts. Yet despite our cynicism, we are indebted to the dear child for the drawings in this present LION. 1 I ,if W11.1,1AM GROSVENOR, JR. Harvard Oh, Gosh, I'm sorry, says the Bear, after having broken your jaw with a flick of his little finger. Indeed the Gros has tremendous physical strength, but that is as far as his power goes. After seeing Snow W hite, Gros was in an awful stew for he could not f r ,, remember the names of the dwarfs. .A When listing them he always pulled ' in a fatty and a thinny or a jolly. He ' told us of a man who had bald hair and the next day assured us that his brother-in-law had been through the Solvay Process. When storms of protest greet his state- ments, Bear Paws defends himself with, Well, you know what I CI Q, mean. His roommate didn't know T- what he meant when Bill awoke him l at 5:30 A.M. and asked if the ten had rung yet. Some say that the Tracks will be the first to marry. We wonder. I

PA if 1, Aunuiz F1.oR1AN Harvard At about twenty-nine and three-quarters minutes after seven every morning Qexeept Sundayj, when the bell in the hall transmits its customary greeting, there is a low muffled growl from the left hand side of the room. Throwing aside a comforter, his only protection against the wintry blasts, our hero is soon in- volved in his daily struggle to make breakfast. A period of silence gener- ally continues through breakfast and recess, when the combined effect of food and the morning mail awakes interest in him even towards the relative value of donkeys. Paul has a habit of making deprecatory remarks in casting aspersions on the characters of his classmates. A prominent figure from the rear, Fabian, as some call him, frequently graces our discussions with his own original axioms. N 4. B-r-r-r-r-t Bang!

Fro gets a pretty fair bird, but he takes it with a cheery scowl. When the Bones drops his eyes at you, beware, for he is sore. Bill loves to win matches on the tennis court for the old alma mater, and keeps careful count of his vie- tories, on the score card, which appears in full view on his bureau. Only his roommate can decipher his usual Saturday night greeting of Goodeveningturnonthehitparaile. Lately Fro has turned decidedly literary, for voluntarily. of his own free will, mind you, he read Romola. You are no doubt already cognizant of this fact, for Bill makes sure to tell everyone he meets about it. And small wonder, for it is the only book he has ever read.

XVILLIAM Frorn HANFIMAN Harvard That, figure hobbling along the bank at Fort Meadows is Vaptain Bill with water on the knee. This quiet boy, who joined us our Fourth Form year, has a phenomenal success story, and don't let him convince you that it only applies to School. When Willy was declared a monitor and a prefect. there began an un- paralleled reign of terror on North Forridor 3, which was finally ended by the eviction of Willy and Fiend. Rumor has it that Plug runs the School Store and his name appears on the stationery, but with the exeeption of ordering crew shirts, Bill isn't often over there. Winter Term saw Bill President of the Ski Vlub, as is attested by several Bald- win portraits of a figure. covered with snow, labeled Haneman. 4.1. l srfxxzmzk l BENJAMIN M UNROE HAZARD Harvard We've seen Ben around this year, now and then.
