On the morning of the 8th of March. 1897, Bill threw the busy Chesterfield into confusion by answering to the for the first time. He has beei often he is seen to take a bo chief recreation is tossing a ba fusser, yet we notice he often Bill has decided that raisi.

Above is Red ' s favorite expression, and if you do not believe it, line up in a game before his 180 lbs. of bone and muscle — mostly bone — and see if they look the same to him. Red ' s one great fault is to fall asleep in class. Even ammonia beneath his nose does not seem to disturb Granite ' s sonorous slumbers. He is so popular with the ladies that he takes a different one to each informal, but — there ' s a reason. If Red could only fit with the girls as he does with the fellows, he would be able to start a harem that would make the Sultan green with envy. 29

Sran Hataon Alarn Stubby I ' ll speak in a monstrous little voice ■ Proctor, Vermont A X A House Proctor High School August 12, 1896; Chemistry; A X A; Manager Class Football (3). Stubby hails from the Green Mountain State, the home of big things. However, the boy ' s greatness lies not in the 5 ft. 4 in. he boasts of. but his ability to be there when 1919 needs him. It is no secret that he is a great admirer of the gentler sex — from a distance — but it would surprise most of us if he didn ' t pick a winner. Stubby can usually be found in the vicinity of the Chem Lab, but what attraction he finds there is enough to scare a man who hasn ' t got the stuff to get what he goes out for. hmmi Austin Hang Quince To be and not to seem South Hadley 9 North College South Hadley High School November 2, 1898; Animal Husbandry; A 2 I ; Class Basketball (2); Class Football (3). We have here a boy who received his elementary education at Mt. Holyoke. Quince came to us last year from Colgate University. He has quietly battled his way to an unquestion- able standing among his classmates, both with his bean and his muscle. So far as we are able to find out, he has selected dairying as his idea of a perfect life. Should he ever forsake the lowing kine, we fear he would before long grow lonesome and reseek the wilds of South Hadley. Itlliam AInljnnan Hakrr A pipe, sc Oh! who Bill ne makin wuld sav atch.

The youthful ruff-neck comes to our circle from Melrose, in which place he played as a child. He is far from being quiet, for where there is something doing you are always sure to find Bill. Baker seems to have been able to bluff his way by the Profs with one exception, for he still lakes his place with a younger generation and carefully dissects the little animals under Doc Gordon ' s watchful eye. Bill is major- ing in Ent. with the hopes that in after days he may be able to work at a Government Job. 28

Sierbrrt 5UrIjar l anb Bondy Men of few words are ihe besl men Needham 2 K House Dover High School January 18, 1898; Animal Husbandry; 2 K; Class Football (I, 2, 3); Animal Husbandry Club (3). Herbie ' s motto seems to be: To every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. When he was a freshman he played football against Ed Perry. That was the action. This year he has been playing in the interclass games, and if you have seen them, you have seen the reaction. He is also the exchange mail man and in that way, though by no effort of his own he has become one of the most important men on the campus. If the good wishes of his classmates mean anything, he need have no fears for the future. Artlrur Nruitntt Umitrn Bunny Here, a Utile child, I stand Providence, R.

This cute boy lives in the little Johnny Cake state, Rhode Island. At registration time a peculiar circumstance arises, for he then claims Quincy as his home. His waddle is very pecul- iar, and as for form, Oh boy! he has any of Ziegfield ' s bsauties beat a mile. Arthur is a lover of the fair sex as can well be proven. His ability as a writer won him a place on the Col- legian Board and yet we can ' t understand his majoring in pomology, unless it was at a moment when he was gazing toward the superabundant fruit of Haitrirr Stetson liauirn On their own merits modest men are dumb akeville 81 North Pleasant Street Middleboro High School • 9, 1896; Animal Husbandry; Commons Club; Stock- Club (1); Animal Husbandry Club (3). bridge Whether the Maurice.
