THOMAS CASTLE Tom Castle is the man with a smile from ear to ear, and this smile does not go unnoticed as his popularity testifies. This promoter of Senior room mischief is a member of both the Cad- mean and Edward Moore societies, and his timely remarks at meetings add much to make them enjoyable. On the athletic field his prowess is much known also, as he sparkled in the left end position on the football team, and as a swimmer on Mr. Munson's swim- ming team. In his studies Tom ranks extremely high, receiving honors ev- ery month. His themes and short stories help to make the task of grad- ing papers a pleasure for the teachers rather than a task, and his great fund of general knowledge adds much to his class standing. During the Spring vacation, Tom took a jaunt down to Florida with John Gale, where he improved his swimming, spent many nights at the palacious Lido Beach Casino, and brushed up on one of his favorite hob- bies, bowling. As a bowler, Tom ranks high among the U. S. keglers, and few can match his consistently high scores. .J Cum Laude --4: Cadmean Societye-4: Class Base- balls-2, 3, 4: Gym Team-4: B Basketball-2. 3: Class Soccer---2, 3, 4, Captain-4: C.E.E.B.

S. from the far west, well, anyway, Bay Vil- lage. When not engaged in talking about the magnificent virtues of this wonderful spot, whose leading suburb is Cleveland, our wavy haired pal can usually be found over in the dorm disturbing the general status quo of Pickands Hall proceedings, and to- gether with his room-mate, Schindler, he brings many a gray hair to the heads of Messrs. Grant and McLellan. However, King is one of those men who finds time to accomplish all of his tasks and still have some fun, as he pointed out in his Senior speech, Litzfing on Twmzfy-fozzr Hours a Day. When not working to maintain the honor average that won him Cum Laude, the King can be found Writing up his Dorm column for the News, doing tricks on the parallel bars for the gym team, or dropping around to add a little humor to Cadmean meet- ings. As one of the Mabian joke edi- tors, King was seen this spring snoop- ing around some of those off the record conversations in order to gather material for this publication. Next year Cayce goes to bat at M. I. T., where we know he'll continue to carry on in fine style, helped by that smooth Bay Village personality.

THEODORE BURGESS This handsome young man can be found almost any afternoon at Shaker Square listening to polkas or other forms of popular dance music at John Wade's record shop or down be- low. His great shiny, cream-colored Buick is the envy of many a U. S. boy, and Ted may well be proud of his convertable with the blue stripes. At school Ted comes to the front in Pop Foster's history class, where he usually argues the negative side of any question, being a very conservative fellow, and also in Dr. Peters' Civil Government class, where he shows his extensive knowledge of current af- fairs. Ted is a connoisseur of the story and of travel. Many a lad has come near having convulsions while laugh- ing at Ted's hilarious and very much exaggerated stories about boys, girls, parties, and other occasions of interest. As for travel, Ted has taken in every- thing from Jackson Hole, Wyoming, to the highlights of the gay New York night life. On these trips we are told that Ted and his companions had many very interesting and enjoyable experiences. Next year Ted intends to pack his belongings and trudge on down to the land of sun and beaches to attend that school of schools, Rol- lins, where we are sure he will carry on in the capacity of a good student and a good fellow.

He stands far above the other members of the class, being some odd six foot- four in height and his broad smile adds a cheerful touch to the school atmos- phere. During the afternoons this denison of the ether spends his time in Mr. Grant's room, as he tries to follow the course of a complicated algebra problem, or driving from the school to indulge in one of his favorite pastimes, caking. Andy, a member of the Edward Moore society, is always surrounded by an admiring crowd of youth who wonder at his great height and basketball ability, and to whom he always displays his suave charm. His greatest accomplishments, how- ever, have come on the basketball floor where he has coupled his great height with an uncanny ability to shoot baskets, to produce one of the finest players in recent U. S. history. This blond giant co-captained the team to many thrilling victories last fall and his graduation will be a severe blow to the team next year. Andy jour- neyed to Michigan U. this spring where he got his first touch of college life, and he will probably further his studies in this institution, or join the invading host of Dartmouth.

This isn't the peanut vendor, it's only Jerry Close out for a spin in one of his family's two new cars. Nothing serious, of course, just a ripped fender or a bent axle. Don't get the wrong idea, though. Jerry isn't habitually reckless. In fact, he's just about the opposite, going about things in a me- thodical and business-like way. He is what might almost be termed an old-timer at U. S., and has in his several years here learned the ropes pretty well. If you should happen to see a haggard, worry-strained face peering into rooms or being bustled about school by two tired legs shortly before a Players' Performance, that is Jerry. He has elected to take on one of those thankless jobs on which the entire production depends, -that of property manager. It is his lot to dig up everything from water coolers to building fronts. Jerry also sports his talent in a vocal way by carrying a lusty baritone in the Glee Club. He has his interest in biology and subjects pertaining to it by helping Mr. Piper in all his spare mo- ments. He plans to follow this type of work through at Michigan, where he hopes to take a medical course. . l Varsity Footba1142, 3, 4, Co-captain 4: Varsity Hockey-3, 4: Varsity Baseball -Z. 3, 4: Board of Preiects: Student Council -1, 2, 3, 4, President 4: Second Honors-1, 2, 3. 4: Mabian Board: Cadmean Society- 2, 3, 4, Secretary 4- f-Edward Moore Society f 3, 4. JOHN LAWRENCE CONWAY Here is the other half of that great Biumvirate of Conway and Bernet. lack is the strong, silent type, Who never fools with inconsequential tripe, When every toilsome day is done, You can be sure that lack has the battle won. As the co-captain and plunging fullback of the Varsity eleven this year, jack upheld the Conway tradi- tion of fine pigskin players. Many is the time that Jack has come off the field bloody, but unbowedf' Those hard body checks of defense men Con- way and Bernet brought about the undefeated hockey team of last sea- son. jack has been Mr. McCarraher's Ken Keltner for three illustrious spring seasons. Gff the field as well as on, Jack is on the top of the heap. Acting as the Supreme justice of the class, Jack pre- sides at Student Council meetings and is the minute reader and roll caller of the Cadmean Society. He takes time out to attend the monthly meeting of the Prefects and to add his frank opin- ions at the Edward Moore congrega- tions. By hard labor he manages to keep his average always around 90. This sturdy, staunch link of the great Conway chain will certainly keep on top next year at Georgetown.
