Ed spends lus autumns playing soccer, his winters studying for the ministry, and his springs attending the atternoon sessions of the Campus Country Club's Sun Bathing Society. Heading that section of the Parsons who constitute the Brotherhood. Ed devotes his creative talents toward finding things for the preachers to do in an effort to keep them out of mischief. LYDIA ESTHER CANSER Lydia is one of those super-efficient people who always succeed with minimum effort, until the problem of getting a good night's rest presents itself. After four years of practical application of her acquired mathematical principles. she has declared it a problem of chance with the «dds against her. A recognised 'tar both at tennis and Phi Psi rushing, this veteran Shreinerite balances the work and play columns of her time budget, as evidenced by her regular appearance on the B list, and her ascendancy to the presidency of the Eighth Avenue Bridge Club.

Tee-Wee” is one of the staunchest supporters of the superiorities of Curtis The banker of the class. Peter occupied a permanent chaar while absorbing the principles of high finance as practised by the Kaintucky Colonel. His reportorial duties de manded much of his time, but nevertheless. Tommy found ample opportunity to pull his daily fast one to the great delight of the frequenters of the Demas domicile. VIRGINIA ELIZABETH GARRETT Thump, thump, clatter, thump, and a Hi. toots , and you know its Ginny coming down the stairs, with a sparkle in her eye and mischief up her sleeve. (Jinny is South's imp, and M H. A is usually the victim. And when she isn't teasing someone, she’s lounging around making those dry cracks that put the crowd in stitches. Contrary t» custom, she likes school so much that she hates to leave it even during vacations. The attraction is of a sublime, though sophomoric . nature, and can usually Iv seen of a Sunday eve headed toward a secluded retreat. THOMAS W. GARRETT 30 V IRGINIA E. GARRETT

ELIZABETH F. EVANS GEORGE E. LESSEE ELIZABETH FLORENCE EVANS Elect of Vrsinus girls, Betty was chosen to preside over the annual May tele. Dignity, graciousness, and personal charm combined with business sense. gixxj taste, and that desirable quality of’ letting go but only at the proper times, of course distinguished her on campus. Her activities ranged from guiding the fates of the V. S G. A to that of determining the fate of any number of ambitious suitors. And in the latter case, she can hardly be guilty of having played Penelope, despite her mastery of the dramatic art. OSCAR CASSELL EREAS. Jk. O. ('. , alias Cassell , alias Rasputin , noted Derr Hall astronomer, specializes in star gazing in and out of class. After two years of Brodbeckian atmosphere shared with Jaggard the Terrible, Oscar moved to Derr to lead a relatively quiet life in company with Schiele, Turner, Rinehart and Co. His formal bid for popularity came with lus appearance as the “killer in the Junior Play, and was rapidly followed by the incident of Minerva the Cat. With time found both for study and social life, O. C. remains a gentleman of the first, or second, water. GEORGE EDWARD FISSEL Nimble fingers enabled this York protege to land both the job of Rec Hall pianist and the famed name of Noble. A lover of Casa I.oma. Benny Goodman, and the like. George spent his spare time in Brodheck criticizing and analyzing well-known orchestras and their respec-tive unorthodox styles. Besides music (and other activities somewhat clouded m mystery), George acquired a contract-bridge complex under the tutelage of Heigesand Kurtz, former Brodlvck sharks. After gaining the proper concept of how to get along without over-exertion, Noble is planning to enter Med. School. CLYDE ALLAN FREECE ' It's written in the stars : so for four years this crack star gazer and mathematician has hitched his academic wagon to a star, only to come sliding down to earth via that much-feared bell-shaped curve route. Just couldn't seem to catch on to the army way of doing things. Although a peace-loving type, Allan had troubles even as a lover, being forced into seclusion on many occasions to escape the advances of certain designing I rsinus women. With all hi- trials and tribs, he always found time to devote to those Tuesday tid bits to Tyson of Kimbcrton. OSCAR C. FREAS, Jr. 23 CLYDE ALLAN FREECE
