Far behind her worth como all the praises that I now bestow Carola is a rare good palg we love her very much. We know that Math she does detest, but how she can Sprechen Deutsch! She rises early every morn-a long way she must travel To get to good old Thayer on time, and lessons to unravel! An all-round good sport, in all our games she takes a leading part. She puts a ball down on the plate and handles it real smart, And when, diploma in her hand, to B. S. P. E. she goes, She will always play a leading part and keep right on her toes.

WILLIAM HENRY ERWIN CBillD Holy Cross College 'tThe quiet 'mind is richer than cz crown Bill Erwin is a new comer in our halls this year. His skill on the gridiron immediately won a place for him in the eyes of the school. It is rumored that he is a demon with a basketball, and that he is a baseball player of no mean ability. Bill is an erlicient bank-clerk, too, we hear. Keep it up, Bill! Some day you'll own the bank. Mr. Erwin expects to continue his studies at Holy Cross. Football, 1. DONALD KELTON GERRY CDonl .Harvard 'tHe is complete in feature and in mind With all good grace to grace a gentlernanl' An Everett High School product is this upstanding young gentleman you see here. He came to us only this year, but he quickly became one of us, and we already feel as if we had always known him. His ready answers to intricate questions in English are a revelation, and never have we seen Geometry theorems ox- plained as gracefully as Don explains them. Vile wish we had a basket-ball team here so that Don could add to his accomplish- ments with us. How he can sink baskets! But truth compels us to state that his bowling is not on par with his basket-ball. CLOYES TILDEN GLEASON Northeastern University -Strongest minds Are often those of whom the noisy world hears last As you see by the picture, Cloyes is a bow-tie addict, as wel! as a sheik. He is also a star scout and, as the picture does not show, he has a likeable personality. He hails from Hanover and every morning Csshll saves a seat on the train for someone! VVe dou't know a great deal about Cloves, he has kept quiet most of the time, and has done his work in a way to attain results if not fame. Cloycs expects to be at Northeastern next year. We wish you all success, Cloyesg you deserve it.

Bob, althol possessed of what goes hand in hand with a fiery temper, is an exception to the rule, for he's the mildest and most cheerful of men. Perhaps that's one reason Why he has established himself so quickly in our midst. It may be that some day Bob will be helping to direct our naval policy. At any rate, he hopes to go to Annapolis. DAVID ROY CUTLER CDaveJ M. I. T. I am a part of all that I have met This youth is another of our star pupils, for it is not everyone who can get 100 per-cent in a College Board test in geometry. Davels car will be greatly missed next year, unless he teaches one of his sisters to drive it, a task which at present he is loath to undertake. Dave went on the famous trip to Denmark and learned to 'tJeg elsker dig just like a Dane. Although he says the rolling deep held no terror for him, Bob and Steve merely grin and look wise. Dave is one of our many candidates for Tech, and we know he'll make it. Tennis, 2, 15 Golf, 1g Baseball, 2, 35 Alembic Club, 1. RICHARD DENNISON CDickD Harvard Hts memory long will live alone in all our hearts Dick came to us from the Quincy High School to lead cheers in football and to receive them in baseball. He can surely cover that third sack to the queen's taste, and he has been a captain of great ability. But in more serious pursuits he shines even more brilliantly. A large amount of the success of the Student Council is due to his sterling, honest leadership. In class he has proved a good, hard- working student, In so far as we know, Dick has but two faults: he bowls over opposing catchers rather hard in his tempestuous dashes to home plate, and he sometimes arouses the ire of motor- cycle cops Remember that incident on the Newburyport turn- pike after the Dummer game last year, Dick?

ALVA MORRISON DOW, Jr. CMorrieD Amherst A man of well-attempered frame Steady, reliable, true-blue in school and out, quietly merry and companionable, that's Morrie. In short, Hwhen a feller needs a friend there is none quite like him. He's done his bit all along the way. Like many another in our group he has been a humble disciple of Thespis. Good luck, friend Morriel Dramatics, 2g Glee Club, 2, Year Book, 15 Alembic Club, 1.

JOHN RIPLEY HOLLIS Harvard For manners are not idle, but the fruit Oj loyal nature and of noble mind John belongs to that race of men who believe that true great- ness is achieved through deeds, not words, in consequence, he has proved himself to be a faithful student and a willing worker. To John, too, has come the glorious adventure of travel, both at home and abroad. All in all, John is one whom we are proud to include in our ranks-a gentleman of distinction and culture. MARGARET HELEN HOWE Wheaton Merit was ever modest known . Margaret came to us the first part of this year from the Milton High School. She is such a quiet lass that at times we would not even know that she was around did she not recite in class. Mar- garet has made many friends, though, in her short sojourn with us, and we all wish her the best of success next year at Wheaton. Girls Club, 1. MARTIN COOPER HUBBARD Amherst I leave thy praises uneacpressedu He shines in his French recitations, In English his themes have style, And in Latin, alone, 'mongst the lassies, He translates each day with a smile. He plays a fast game of tennis, Sings, and plays the piano, too. But Martin is never so busy That he cannot talk to you. Tennis, 23 Dramatics, 2, lg Glee Club, 2, lg Year Book Staff, 1.
