IYILLIARI CCFF CB11,1,j Bill should have been twins, for who ever heard of anything but a pair of cuffs? But still it makes no difference for there is no collar to go with him, though there is a Collins, O preferred. In his spare time Bill plays with Trip and the trigger and is good at them both. He will continue his education at Xortheastern.

His motto seems to be, Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we die. Even though he hasn't decided what to do next year, were sure helll supply the fun somewhere, for Simey is just the boy to be merryf, Dance Committee. 3: Dramatics. 2: Glee Club. 2. l. 1 PHILIP FLINT CI'i1,0PPl-LRJ. . Philip Flint fails to find feminine features fascinating. for Phil follows faithlessly the forever fettering, flattering feminine. lfle is such a nice. quiet chap that we hate to have him so up to .Xmherst where those Xlt. Holyoke girls can bother him. Never mind, Philip. Stay in nights and study hard and youlll be safe. Dance Committee. 3: Clue Club. 2. l: .-Xlumni Comniittee. l. Xl.fXRjORIK HALL Cjeiuavj Only one short year has KIarjorie been with us, but still we've had ample opportunity to prove that the old saying :flood things come in small packagesl' is quite I1116. We marvel that such a small person is so well able to play hockey. Has Klarjorie ever squeezed lemons? She'll say so, and so will we and add that she did it faithfully, with the result that the Seniors boasted of some very good punch at their dances. Is she popular? Take a vote, there is little doubt as to the result. Not often does Smith acquire such an all-around character as it will this fall in llarjoriel Dance Committee, lg lloekey, lg Candy Committeeg Cllee Club.

ALLENJ Long, lean, lazy. laughing. and loquacious.-as such we present Al. Allen to you. Always good-natured. always ready with an amusing joke, is it any great surprise that Allen is so universally liked? Uft we quail before the Vast knowledge of chemistry he has acquired in one short year. Uft we gaze with admiration as he twirls and performs intricate steps on the dance floor. And oft we grin to think that he. a boy, does talk so muchl Glee Club. 2. l: Dance Committee. 3. 21 Second learn Football. 2: Year Book Staff: French Play. GRACE SEYMOUR tAl11,l.11z, Srziqznmissj We hayenlt been able to discoyer yet whether Klilly will become a second John Singer Sargent or another John Burroughs, but what- eyer she is, she will be a good one. Pep is Graee's middle nameg at least it ought to be if it isn't. Wiatch her sometime in a basketball game, in Latin period, or eyen in the library, and you'll agree she's peppy.

V l JOSEPH H.'Xl,l,ljrl'T 110132 -loe's one of the most retiring gentlemen of the class. and the most talented. too-a rare combination. Put a pen in his hand and ask him to draw a picture of Jupiter hurling a thunderbolt, shut your eyes. say Jack Robinsonn and he giyes you the finished product. Not only in art does he excel, but in history as well. You'll find that whenever Visitors happen in on American history, Xlr. Southworth calls on Joe. Do you wonder we're proud of him? Glee Club. 2. l. BRADFORD HUBBARD QBUCKJ The way Buck pours shekels out on his l ord would hardly lead you to think. he could be such an excellent jew. The fact remains. however. that Buck, Sloysky, and the Ford are all one and inseparable. What the school will do without Bradford and the lford next year is quite beyond our imagination, but we will not be here to see, a fact which we are rather glad of. because I fear they beth will be sorely missed. .Xmherst is going to be fortunate in at least one of its lfreshmen next fall.

FREDILRICK Hl'XT 'lihough the baby ol the class. yet lired surpasses many others in scholarship. For this. we honor him, .Xt times. however. he shows in his pranks something ol a tendency to liye up to the epithet which his youthful years haye inflicted upon him. l or this. we chide him. Behind Fredis leyity weiye often discoyered wells ol common sense and thoughtfulness. Brains. too. he has in plentyg that is proved by the fact that he has attained to such a high place so early in liief iXs an actor tone that speaks French fluently alsoll he is superb.

ARLI, HISCUQR QH1sxyj And still they gazed. and still their wonder grew, That one small head could carry all he knewfl 'llhe best thing about Earle's wisdom is that it doesn't all come from booksg a great part of it comes from experience. Before he arriyed at Thayer, liarle was a sailor. ln American history class he reveals many things heretofore unknown to us. gknd so it goes in almost all his classes: he leads us all. It would take a volume in which to set down all of Earle's interests and accomplishments: suffice to say that if anyone asks him to do anything, of any nature. however difficult. lfarle docs it. Some day. in the not lar distant future, we will hear of him. maybe in the field of radio. or on the sea. or as an engineer-but whereyer the place we will hear of him mainly because of his desire to learn. and his will to succeed. He has already begun to sing the phrases of l air Haryardf' Year Book Stalli Candy Committee. Chairman.
