1. Strayer, Harvey G. Born 1881, Milford, Neb. Attracted to the Varsity in the fall of '98. President of the class in his Junior year, has held every office in the U. B, D. C. Was a class representative in the Senior-Junior debate. His ambition is to go to Harvard, but he may teach next year. 2. Stevenson, William Tracy. Born near Nemaha, this state. The district school, Wesleyan, the State Normal, and the University of Nebraska were reached at successive stages. Upon graduation, he hopes to journey west, where he will become a cowboy or a school teacher or U. S. marshal, or engage in some equally dangerous occu- pation. ' 3. Loomis, E. Margaret. A fair maiden who graduated from the Lin- coln high school in 1899. She is very bashful, so we did not ask her how old she is. We venture, the guess of twenty summers. Her great- est delight is the study of European history. Next to that is the plea- sure of discussing economic problems with post-graduate students. 4. Hagenow, May Belle. In '84 moved to Lincoln to prepare for the Uni. Although taking no active part in class affairs, she has made many warm friends among her classmates who say that her worst fault is a strong disapproval of football. A handsome solitaire and her devo- tion to the culinary art are significant. 5. Thomas, Mabel Ida. Delian. Began to laugh April 13, 1880, and has never stopped. She started her Uni. career with the class of '02, but liked that of '03 better, so waited and taught school till it caught up. She has had a love affair, but-ssh-she has almost forgotten it, so we will not waken old memories. 6. Schaper, Meta Elizabeth. Phi Beta Kappa. Born 1884. Graduated from Havelock high school '99 and entered the University in the same year. Never received one of Wyer's calling cards, never skips class, never Hunks, and never flirts. She is a good forward on the famous basket ball team of 1903. 7. Bruner, F. G. Native of Illinois. Stopped at Streator in 1874. Never happy unless in presence of other sex. He has been an active Pall and has achieved the honor of obtaining a fellowship in educa- tion while an undergraduate. 8. Fox, Theodore Wm. Native of Empire state. Born near the beau- tiful Lake Chautauqua. In January, 1903, became principal of the Sheridan, Wyo., high school, where he may be found extracting ideas from budding geniuses, by means of the to1'sion balance. 7

l. Brown, Arthur. No relation to Ossowatomie Brown. ls known as Shorty Became a Cornhusker at an early date, to show them how to run creameries and incidentally graduate from Aurora high school. Since his entrance in the Uni. he has spent his summers and one year on the Burlington, mechanical engineering. 2. lttner, Edna. Phi Beta Kappa. Native of York, Neb. One of those girls who is very prompt and thorough in everything she undertakes. She would be a very good model for all Freshmen to follow who wish to succeed as students. She expects to fill her position in the world by teaching the timid young minds how to overcome difficult passages in Latin without a pony. 3. Ballard, Clara Nlay. Reached Grafton, Neb., in 1882. Member of Senior Basket Ball team. Thinks comfort is found only in the biologie cal department. Her favorite amusement is watching for the Omaha mail. She will return next year to review cooking and household eco- nomics. Ask no questions, please. 4. Egge, Margaret. Born in Grand Island. Played with the little boys and girls in Germany one summer. Came to the University, where she has been giving the professors points in history and German ever since. Follows Fling explicitly in regard to conduct, except when she forgets. 5. Norton, J. V. Tall and lank, and debates like a kicking mule. He can produce more briefs in an hour than Fogg can tear to pieces in tive minutes, and anything more is useless. He works hard and al- ways pulls a long face when you look at him. It is even chances he is playing 'possum. 6. Peters, Guy M. Al. jolly good fellow. Has many ambitions, all tending to one ideally sublime end. This will be realized when he is living not alone in a quiet, happy, little home of his own. The one problem that has vexed him is which shall it be? 7. NlcDill, Alice. Phi Beta Kappa. An Iowa girl with a propensity for hard work. 'Came to Nebraska and then went to Kansas to teach. Came to the Uni to specialize in Latin and test the merits of a P. B. K. Has earned a stand-in with the English department. An unselfish girl with many friends. S. Crane, Calvin. Came from Ashland, where he, the cutest little fellow, had innocently made inroads on many a girl's heart. His uni- versity career has been full of hard and earnest work. He has been electrician of the grounds for two years. Fat opportunities have al- ready called him into a large field of usefulness in the East. 9
