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. No doubt next year at Haryard Thayer Will be Well FGDFCSSIHGG.

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.

TI'E!l.VllI'UP' HISTORY Ulf THF CLASS OF 1925 The good old Class of 1925 was the first preparatory -class to enter the Academy with tlIe new Faculty. No doubt we were very timid and frightened little preps but we soon outgrew our shyness. lVe were very proud of having a member of our class on tlIe Academy baseball teaml Qf course, it was no other than Dick Ketchum, our president. Dick and many other boys in the class have continued to distinguish themselves and us in athletics, -for they won the basketball championship for two successive years. The girls, too, have slIown their merit in basketball, field hockey. and volley-ball. During our Junior year we elected oflicers. Each of the two divisions of the class had its own officers, but we realized that we could not have true class spirit with- out unity. Accordingly, we elected officers to represent tlIe whole class. The next year, our Junior hliddle year, found some of us in Room 3. There We were a source of constant annoyance to hlr. Hetherston, who declared we were the noisiest class tlIat had ever been in that room. That year was tlIe Golden Age of our class. ive certainly lengthened the Honor Roll considerably. This year we gave our reception. ive are sure that everyone who was at the Cochato Club that night will agree that the dance was a brilliant success. A few of the members of our class contributed to the success of the French plays. If any- one is ever in need of a street urchin, we heartily recommend Steve Balkam. lVe had the pleasure and privilege last fall of welcoming lNIiss Gemmel as our English teacher, and we hope to show her that the East is quite as attractive as the VVest. Altogether, our school life has been a happy one, and we sincerely hope that we may leave a record of scholarship and usefulness that will be an inspiration and a guide to those who come after us.
