THE DES FEEES DAVID RONDOU. A. B. CHARLES KENNY, A. B. “Crafty” “Charlie” West Depere, Wis. West Depere, Wis. Crafty” While still in high school his playmates dubbed him Crafty’’ because of his elusive tactics on the basket-ball floor. Now that he has become a collegian he is, naturally far more reserved and dignified than he was as a common” Academic. His evasiveness, however, has not in the least lost its edge, but has been even more finely sharpened. The professor who can keep Crafty from successfully eluding in one way or another the pitfalls of examination does not teach at this school. “Charlie” One look at Charlie’s features and you will be convinced that at last you have met with a serious, studious collegian. But look again. Those eyes which just now seem to be earnestly searching for more and more knowledge may in a minute be brightened with a roguish twinkle. The monotony of many class periods has been broken by one of Kenny's sudden Irish witticisms. Although Charles was usually too busy with his studies to indulge in athletics, he could usually be seen in the gym at noon helping Crafty to whip his day-dodger basketball team into shape. The bumps which he received during the course of these workouts sometimes disabled him temporarily, but he always came back for more. May he be able to do the same when Dad Time takes a wallop at him in the future. 1‘inj.- Ttrmlf Sijr

We’re all with you. “Philippi “Philippi” is one of the most versatile of college students. Because of his short, round build he proved to be a great help to Coach Carey on the gridiron. Even after he was tackled he could roll for considerable extra yardage. In the class-room he was capable and steady. While he was assistant librarian he showed that he could not be bluffed when he escorted Kondou and Steinmeta from the library for misbehavior. Another event that most of the older students will remember happened at Legion Park. “Philippi downed his man time after time, with swift hard tackles.
