the NAUGHT-NINE CARDINAL C. C. Cash, B. A. Texarkana Lieut.-Col. at the Dormitory. “What funny children some people raise.” The lion of the Weekly, his teachers see in him the elements of a Mark Twain. He has a very strong affinity for Freshman girls and so frequent are his visits to Carnall Hall that Mrs. Pane has consulted the Dean about charging him rent for parlor space, and the wear and tear of the furniture. Under the magnanimous name of man- killer he even tried to get a room at Carnall Hall. Roy B. Liester, B. A. Fayetteville Member of Y. M. C. A. Quartette. He is a vocalist, organist, pianist, and a humorist, but not a socialist. Fayettville, Ark., Dec. 17th, 1908.— Mr. R. B. Liester, who so ably enter¬ tained an audience of twelve thousand in our town last night, is a student in the University of Arkansas. Mr. Liester’s characterization of a Jew was especially apt. He was also quite funny in his “A Professor of Music.” We are looking forward to a return engagement of Mr. Liester .—Fayetteville Daily. Now I guess you know who Liester is. Merrill Snell, B. C. E. Fayetteville An engineer who has finished his course in three years. This shows that he is one of the brightest members of his class. The latest problem he has been working on is that “it is possible to construct an elevated railroad under the Mississippi River. Cameron H. Pulley, B. A ....Fayetteville A nice, quiet fellow who always wears Sunday-go-to-meetin’ clothes. Jim is a real, true ladies’ man sometimes, but he will go down in history as a man “too great to be president.” Fred A. Tillman, B. A. Fayetteville Fred is the last man in the University that we would have thought would have fallen in love, but Cupid’s fiery darts have even reached his hard, hard heart. He is now a slave to a habit, love. Page 29 S E N I O R S

THE NAUGHT-NINE CARDINAL Pag e 28 S E N I O R S Alice Reed, B. A . Fayetteville Vice President Freshman Class, ’04- ’05. Artist Cardinal, ’08. “But there is more in me than thou understandest.” Alice’s good humor has won her great love. She smiles so much that she has often been accused of flirting. She is very modest in her aspirations, not car¬ ing for woman’s rights. She is also very domestic in her tastes, and is a firm be¬ liever in the old saying, “The shortest way to a man’s heart is through his stomach.” Dan Blair, B. C. E. Decatur Captain Company A, ’06-’07. Short, sour and sassy, is an ardent lov¬ er of “Preps.” Can be seen fondling them at all times. Bess Trent, B. A . Fayetteville Prophetess class, ’07-’08. Bess is Myrtle Miller’s chum; they stick to each other like a sick kitten to a hot brick. You never see one wit hout the other. They are very much alike. R. C. Gibson, B. A. Berryville Regimental Quartermaster Sergeant. Gibson is a human question box. He can discuss any question relating to English, Economics, History, Latin or most anything else. His ideas are al¬ ways guaranteed to be original. He is short and square, and wears a smile which is adjustable for the use of either old or young ladies. He doesn’t mind talkin ' to strangers. Myrtle Miller, B. A . Fayetteville Historian of class, ’05-’06. “I care for nobody, no not I, if no¬ body cares for me.” Myrtle is the other part of the Miller- Trent chumship. They form a dead “crush”—a crush is a conjunction of two persons having a strong affinity for each other, and when they get tangled up in each other’s arms, it is hard to tell which is the mushier, more impres¬ sionable substance.

THE NAUGHT-NINE CARDINAL Page 30 T E N I O F S Joe W. Rhodes B. A. Osceola Lieutenant and Adjutant. Joe is built square, all dimensions are rather short. He thinks he knows how to play foot ball, but he gets the game confused with prize fighting. He has a patented walk and is day keeper of the Commandant. William W. Grubbs, B. A. IVilmer .Adjutant. President of Garland. “Daddy” Grubbs is not old, he just ap¬ pears to be. It is whispered that Daddy” has been clearing a convenient place on top of his head preparatory to moving up his face. What the cause of his dissatisfaction is, is not known, for you can see that he is not bad looking. C. N. Wilson, B. C. E. Cabot Lieutenant, ’09. C. N. is another engineer who is sup¬ posed to graduate in three years, but it is doubtful whether he will make it or not. lie is a little gaseous, in fact we are afraid to strike a match within his vicinity. Recently he has patented a new hot air furnace. John L. Shipley, B. A. Booneville Lieutenant. Tohn L. is not as fisty as the other John L. S. was. He is a quiet, good- natured and unassuming “cuss, who never says a bad word and very seldom any other kind. He is always spring¬ ing surprises when one least expects them. Estes Allen, B. A. England Some malicious Junior once hinted that he was not a Senior. He wishes us to make mention of the fact that he is a Senior.
