There's honesty, manhood, and good fellowship in. thee Herbert is the one person in the school whom we have never seen waste a single minute. He has even been known to make one minute do the work of two by a 4'get-prepared-quick method all his own. In short, the busy bees will have to 'tgo some to keep up with our Herbert, an all-around student and a good' scout into the bargain. Year Book Committee lg Glce Club 53 Assistant Stage Manager 2.

IYhat he doesnlt know about cars isn't worth knowing. When he is not tinkering with the various and sundry parts of his old Dodge, he may be caught trying to sell it to someone for four-fifty. He is always cheerful and most jovially inclined when grinding out the UPagan Love Song at seven A. M. in the U1lOl'IIlll. and thereby serving us as a reliable alarm clock. All joking aside, however, Tyrrell is the kind- of fellow we like to have around. Glcc Club 1, Assistant Stage Jllanager 2, Track 15 Dramatics 1.

XYillis Neal HISTORY OF CLASS TWO At last- we have found ourselves advanced to the dignified posit-ion of Senior Middlcrs. Although we have not seen as much of each other in the classroom this year as in previous years, because of the great variety of programs and the many different subjects offered us, yet we remain as one group struggling toward our year as seniors. The social activities of our classes have increased and so have our responsi- bilities. This year found us in charge of the Annual Senior Middle Reception which was held at the Neighborhood Club with Jerry Aldrichls Orc-liestra. The dance was a, great suecess. lVe had hardly recovered from the excitement of this when Mid-Years appeared on the horizon in great black letters. These were only just over and out of sight when the Senior Middle Play was before us with its mixture of pleasure and hard work. We presented HCaptain Applejackv, a delightful play with plenty of fun and hair raising situations. lVe are still living in a piratical atmosphere as a result of the famous Second Act. In sports We have been most' active. The boys have made the varsity foot- ball team and the girls were scheduled to play the championship hockey game with the Seniors but the game was postponed on account of early snows. lYith the year nearly passed, we are beginning to think more seriously of eollege board examinations and college itself as our stay at Thayer grows shorter and the once-distant future approaches reality.
