'5l LEROY R. ASVITT 'IMXHLS I, BARRY LDVVARD 'l'. BRADY lt took the Ethics course to break the bored reserve of Leroy, Wherein, upon stated occasions, he rose up pink and indignant like the first flush of dawn, and, in a voice that tinkled like sleigh-bells, demanded a readjustment of comparative values of conduct and oughtness. Iim is the square-jawed, business-looking blond who has lured unsuspecting business men into addressing the august members of Tau Delta Beta, the honor- ary commerce fraternity of which Iim is President. He is one of the coterie of disciples who sit enchanted in class as the voluminous folds of Prof. Mountain's handkerchief dangle in the languid atmosphere. Ed is our nomination as the most nonchalant senior, his words seem to float gracefully from his mouth at the rate of about one per minute, and his placid, ambling walk seems to complete the picture of repose. Naturally, he isn't very voluble, but he is a master at Hooring anyone with a few well-chosen remarks. 11

l ai' SENIORS EDLIUND E. ABADXE SIDNEY S, ABT JOSEPH ALLEN Ed hails from Marin County, and is a transfer from St. Mary's. He is a true cosmopolite 3 his idea of a Week-end trip is a jaunt to South America. When not in school, or sojourning on our sister continent, Ed enjoys the Wide open spaces near San Rafael, or playing salt Water sailor on Tomales Bay. Sid conceals beneath ponderous horn-rimmed glasses and rosy cheeks, an exceedingly poetic nature.When well pinguefied, he has been known to effervesce with sensuous tid-bits from the best authors. When debating, he conceals this sparkling faculty and confines himself to syllogistic barrenness. Ioe Allenls raucus but pleasing voice has been the living embodyment of the Grey Fog for the past four yearsg even with the adoption of the name Dons. Ioe has not ceased to pierce the mist of Ignatian Heights vocally as he has all of Placer County when he played in the Donner Lake Resort Orchestra. His genial smile and knowing Wink can be very embarassing. 10

SENIOR! ALLEN L. BREEN ROBERT A, BRITT CHRIS A- BUCK Allen or Buzz'l, if you will, is one of the principal instigators of this book besides busying himself with the duties of Senior President. His scurrying about holding up alumni for Hadsl' has enabled the Senior-Ita to appear. His scurrying about may also be witnessed for fifty cents at every track meet: Allen spotted champion Ben Eastman of Stanford forty yards in the relay and brought up the rear in a hopeless race as an appreciative crowd applauded him. Bob Britt, or Bobby Britt as the sporting sheets call him, was the Treasurer of the Associated Students in his senior year so that you may judge that he is of impeachable integrity. He has slid and dashed around every basketball pavilion in Northern California at the guard position throughout his college career. He will be remembered as the fair haired boy who beat the champion Henry Clothiers in the last few seconds while playing for the Y.M.I. Chris fails to make his Monday classes just as assiduously as he points his right index linger in friendly repartee. Bored, aloof, and Worldly-wise, Chris surprised the student body by appearing in a track suit during the inaugural bank holidays, and showing two huge and immaculate legs. 12
