REX SELDON BROVVN Here, quaking sisters, is a gentleman Who has never been known to be ner- vous, worried, or afflicted with any fear Commonly known to man or beast. Rex lifts an amazing capacity of adapting himself to any condition quickly and calmly. In like manner did he crown his entrance i11to U. S. last fall: by mid- year he had been elected to both Cad- Inean and Edward Moore, held a position on ttV0 varsity teams, and had an average in the lllgh eighties. He is the type that makes the politicians break into a cold sweat of gratitude for the fact that Rex didn't come to U. S. early Qnough to snag some of the choicer spoils. In addition to such general conquests we would do well to mention his athletic prowess. As quarterback on the football eleven he did H- very creditable job. And as a guard on Mr. Mf1c's championship team he was the only member in captivity never known to crab -- audibly at least. B1'0wnie,s single year at U. S. has no doubt 130011 8. very enjoyable one for him. In any Cvent his quiet influence has been strongly felt. Best wishes to Rex at Iiehigh.

PETER ALLISON BRUCH With a shout Bruch takes a flying leap for the senior room couch. Pete is always the first person to stretch out on the senior room wreck for the daily after lunch bull. A dependable half-back on the soccer field Pete won the Mitchell Soccer Trophy for being the most valuable player on the soccer team. He also proved himself to be very valuable as captain of the swimming team and at the end of the season was the high point scorer. Pete has a very outstanding record here at U. S., athletieally, scholastically, and socially. His fine quali- ties of sportsmanship elected him to both the Edward Moore and Cadmean Societies. He has also participat- ed as a tenor in tl1e Glee Club. He was captain of the Gym Team this year, and. even after taking a test flight during one practice per- iod, he exhibited almost perfection at the Gym Exhibi- tion for the amount'of time he had to prepare himself. Pete is sure to find success in whatever field of business he may enter after having a well-rounded edu- cation at Dartmouth.

HAROLD QKENNETH ANDERSON Three years ago Andy came from Bay Village to board here at schoolg since then he has been outstanding in football, basketball, and baseball.

Kennv is one of the most likeable boys in the dorm. Together with his room-mate he occupies the only rooni available to students in the dormitory that has a fireplace. It is frequently the site of 'fire- side chats, or general 'bull' sessions. Last summer the General was swept off his feet by quite a po- tent Gail and has since remained swept. Next year our athletic star is going to Syracuse Unive1'sity a three-year letter mang there he will probably gain important positions in social, athletic, and scholastic circles. VVALTER EVERETT BLACK The hockey team at U. S. is an institution. During the season is seems that hockey players live in their own world, speaking a language that only they understand. The fact that they are as temper- mental as the greatest of musicians may have something to do with this isolation. And the captain- or, more suitably, the president--of this world within a world is VValter Black. Under his leadership the hockey squad was probably the most enthusiastic athletic group of the year. And thus they went through an undefeated season in Cleveland to a subsequent city title. To go from the sublime to the ridiculous in accordance with the biographical policy of the Jllabian, VValt is a co-originator of the Old Age Through Otiosityn theory, the other partner being Bill Mar- shall. This duet has probably done more reasoning during the last three years on this subject than Einstein did over his entire theory. Marshall and Black,s theory is e ually complex, one of the simpler slogans of their system, however, is Out of Sight, Out of Mindf' This handy aphorism applied to their theory I simply means that if either Marshall or Black can man- age to leave his books in someone's car that their con- sciences will be satisfied. And you'd be surprised how it works! After such a slam all that can be said is that VValt's ability and his firm personality have made him one of the best-liked members of his class. q . TWENTY

ROBERT VVINSOR BURVVELL One might be heard saying, VVho is the Daniel Boone over there? Bob's long, but well-groomed, hair gives him the air of being very talented in some occupations. Last year Bob went to school in l'aris where he took the usual high school subjectsg but, of course, all of his lessons were in French which made the long assignments even harder. However, he gained invaluable experience which will aid him when he goes to Mexico in two years to study. Last winter Bob took up wrestling, and we under- r stand that he did well considering the fact that he had not wrestled for two years. Bob also joined the Glee Club this year, and he is occasionally heard leading in with a lusty bass tone that could belong only to Bob. Next year Bob is going to enter Brown Unive1'sity, where he will begin his training for the diplomatic ser- vice which he hopes to enter and in which he will inevit- ably become prominent. EDVVIN FURMAN CATHCART Ned is one of the boys who marks the Civil Government papersg fwhich we have heard is sometimes an unpleasant jobj so if you see him surrounded by a lot of boys asking a great many questions and gen- e1'ally beefing, you will know why. Ned has a very definite claim to fame because of his speech exposing the vaga1'ies and eccentrici- ties of the Lakewood Commuters . He is one of the huskies who play football up on the class field those cold fall afternoons and in the spring he is also up there, but playing baseball this time. He lends his voice with a right good will to our various Glee Club songs. VVhen Ned gets to Pennsylvania, whe1'e he is going to get some higher learning , we are sure his good humor will make him a great asset to the college.
