THE NAUGHT-NINE CARDINAL Page 26 S E N I O R S John P. Woods, B. A. Ycllville Winner of Georgetown Debate, ’08. Joint winner of Oklahoma Debate. “John Peter” is quite small, physic¬ ally. He wears his hair trimmed poet’s length, pretends to teach “A” Latin, is very fond of good clothes and precious jeweis and stones. He is partial to “Rubies.” Ollie Greathouse, B. A. Johnson “The quietest member of the class.” Some say that she is thinking of taking the “Veil,” others that she has had a great disappointment, but those who know her best say she is working out a plan to cheat Prof. Marinoni out of hours. The latest report is the reading course. She says it is a dead snap. We think she should be sentenced to read French every day from now until June. John W. Revel, B. S. C. Augusta Treasurer of Senior Class. “Johnnus” is above all a society man, he is also a little musically inclined. His favorite song is “Mary had a little ‘Johnnus-’ ” etc. Johnnus says the peo¬ ple of the University of Arkansas are too kiddish for him, he is going to the A. M. A. Marie Keeney, B. A. Fayetteville Secretary of the Senior Society, ’08- ’09. “.Study is a dreary thing: I would I knew the remedy.” Marie is simply crazy about wit in quotations. It is real interesting to see her slipping the “Life” and memorizing jokes. She is also frequently found solv¬ ing the riddles in the almanacs. She sometimes springs them in class, thinking by this means to make a hit with the Profs. Another of Marie’s hobbies is the discussion of marriage and divorce. William B. Gibson, B. A. Barryville Lieutenant. Bert is the “Old He Raugue Hauseur.” lie is a great man for an argument and is the originator of the famous “Hill Hall Hindoo Hoodoo.” Fie is also the chief manipulator of the saiu machine. He managed to go three months without getting caught by the Senior Committee. Such crafty managements merits especial mention.

THE NAUGHT-NINE CARDINAL Phii, McNemer, B. A . Little Rock ’Varsity base ball team. “Mack” is a great big fellow who does our kicking when we play foot ball. He also knows how to play base ball, so the Seniors say. Myrtie Parish, L. I., B. A... .Morriltown Secretary of the Junior class ’07, ’OS. Treasurer of Executive Board of Carn- nall Hall, ’07. “To learn when I was a Freshman, I would not, and then when I got old I could not.” Guy A. Watkins, C. E . Fayetteville Guy is a civil engineer. He has lately been studying on a plan by which he can make a submarine airship. It is useless to say that if he succeeds in this that his reputation as an inventor will be estab¬ lished. Frances Douglas .. Fayetteville Vice President Mathesian, ’08-’09. Vice President Y. W. C. A. ’08-’09. “I come not here to talk.” She is very fond of books, although she dislikes to be called a “college grind,” so much so J have been told that she has assumed a love affair. At least she has taken up the study of Bertha M. Clay. She goes about her work with a suspicous smile and is frequently heard singing, “Just a little rocking chair and you.” Truman D. Williamson, E. E Springdale T. D. is a fiend after electrical appar¬ atus. He has invented an electrical ma¬ chine that will doubtless revolutionize the industrial world. “It is,” he says, “self-constructing, self-repairing, self-oil¬ ing and a self-operating machine.” Jewell Machen, B. A. Magnolia Associate Editor of the Cardinal, ’08- ’09. For some unaccountable reason no re¬ marks were written about this noble Sen¬ ior. If you want to know the reason ask her.

T H E NAUGHT-NINE CARDINAL Ara Mitchell, B. A. Fayetteville “You can never hitch your wagon to a star if you keep your eyes lowered on your pony.” A wee bit lassie, very “cute,’ though often accused of the sin of deception. She goes about with her coy smile and neat little curls trying to play “sweet sixteen,” but you can’t fool us. She also has the reputation of be¬ ing a graceful rider: however, there is one peculiar thing about her—she always carries her pony in her pocket. C. R. Rhodes, B. E. E . Osceola Lieutenant. Quarterback “Dusty” has followed the ’09 team to victory three times. He is little but loud. Nell Coleman, L. I., B. A — Little Rock ’Varsity basket ball team, ’07-’09. Sec¬ retary Senior Class, ’08-’09. You can never fail to recognize this dignified little Senior, known as the “Hermit” of the Dorm. It has long been a perplexing question to the matron as to how she will induce her to take enough exercise She seems to take no notice of things about her. The matron has finally decided to place her under a very strong woman who will teach her how to play jokes, especially on the Juniors. Garland Hurt, B. A . Fayetteville Color Sergeant. “Miss Hurt” is an autocratic gentle¬ man who presides over the University Weekly board. He is a leader in so¬ ciety and likes to be among beautiful women, but doesn’t bring his heart when he comes to school. Bessie Carnall, B. A. Ft. Smith Associate Editor Cardinal, ’07-’0S. Class Prophetess, ’08-’09. Of the many promising characters at the ’Varsity this year, Miss Carnall is the most talented. Her voice is some¬ thing to be wondered at. She usually chooses the midnight hour in which to practice her songs, in order that at that quiet time she may be able to distinguish the “mellow tones.” In her zeal she for¬ got the comfort of her neighbors, and it became necessary for her to move to the first floor. She is now dying her hair in preparation for a trip to the Cincinnati Conservatory. Page 27 N I O R S w CD
