Al has discovered that school is a difficult place what with being forced to arise at 7:25 for 7:30 breakfast after only fourteen or fifteen hours of sleep. But, when he awakes, boy, is he awake! One of the best basketball players we have seen in a long time and with an uncanny ability to handle the ball, Al is also one of our ace baseball pitchers. ln addition, he is one of the best-natured fellows imaginable, and a natural born comedian. Ask any- one and he'll tell you that Al is first class. Pug 'Tu enty-fTiuo

EDWIN E. REGNELL, JR. Varsity Football '40, Varsity Basketball '40, Varsity Baseball '41, Boxing '41, Glee Club '40, Are you outnumbered 20 to 1 in a gang-fight? ls your football team losing 100 to 0? Ah then, call Regnell to the rescue, for here is Il man who can, or rather says he can, do most any- thing. So you don't believe him, eh? Well, we clidn't either, but, after seeing little dynamite in action, we'rc inclined to believe he could do most anything. Keep on the ball, Ed, and you'll soon put Superman out of business. And to think, his fellow seniors voted him cutest of the class. ...GARDEN CITY E SAN ovyzr ECCLESIAOQ 2 5 4 mm 0 ,ww nu Q 018 11119 JAMES H.

He, too, believes that the part of an auto which causes the most accidents is the nut behind the wheel. Page Uuenty One at A 0,0 I7 :E m 5 4. Qi ll g .. 5 -4 7 ' ' my 5 59

RUSSEL O. WASHBURN Varsity Football '40, Varsity Basketball '40, Varsity Baseball '41, We believe that Tub is the victim of a thwarted ambition. lrle should have been Superman, or so it appears when that so-called comic book is placed in front of him. He eats 'em up. Despite this weakness, he is one of the funniest fellows there is at the old school and one of our best all-around athletes. l'le can also be one of the ablest of Spanish athletes at times. just listen to his stories and you'll get our point.

When not playing the piano for his friends or work- ing ardently on The Record, this versatile Saint Paul- ite may be seen encouraging his teammates on the athletic field with that booming voice of his, which becomes a delightful purr when addressing some lucky girl. Will is liked, too, for his good nature which becomes ruffled only when some jealous fellow musses up his hair, but, wouldn't you be angry if someone ruined your brand new permanent?
