Under her suggestion a Dramatic Club was created and we expect great things from this organization, particularly with ‘‘Burger” at the wheel. We can’t forget her work on the basketball team, either. BENJAMIN BRUCE ELLIOTT Athletic Association, ‘28. ’28. ’29; Orchestra, ‘27. ’28. ’29; Uterary Society, ’27, ’28, ’29. It’s a real treat to have a bov like Bruce in class. Although inclined to a little childish mischief, we enjoy the jokes and are glad to forget the rest for a big laugh. Bruce is fortunate to be family-connected with an enterprise that has been death on the old-time buggy rides— the Ford. Got another joke. Bruce?

To the center of the basketball court our eyes can’t help but fall upon “Red.” Maybe be¬ cause of her reddish hair, but more probably because of her activeness. Red has a person¬ ality that affects us like an Irish joke—it leaves us with a brighter feeling toward life. As we go out to various fields, may it be our luck to gather friends like “Red.

There is nothing hut genuine happiness behind the laugh that is now famous, vet nothing hut earnestness when more serious matters come. “Biddy is small, hut there are few who laugh louder or few who attract more attention than he. There is a time for all things with him, which is partly the secret of his long list of friends. FRANCES GODWYN BELL FANNY Literary Society, ' 27.

0 0 EMILY LOUISE C AMPBELL Emily is down there f ' ghting like a tigress. As she darts hack and forth, her keen, brown eyes tell the story sometimes of doubt, uneasiness and then we see the fire of sure victory. As a plucky guard she is rather priceless and we can not shape words that express our appreciation for her services. CRESTON THOMAS EVANS “FLEET Many an envying glance is cast longingly at Creston ' s dark, wavy hair, yet it is a source of much dismay to our fortunate member. Creston is a real heart-breaker, according to reports. Well, he has many advantages of looks that everyone can’t enjoy. No joking, we surely ap¬ preciate this rather handsome, impressive youth.

Discussing perpetual motion, it occurred to me that “Stump is the nearest human specimen of this much discussed experiment. From 9:00 to 3:30 she continually hops up and down. It is a puzzle to us just how she summons so much energy to make everyday events seem important. Yet some day she will use this energy in making somebody ' s world a happier place. Page Twenty-one
