Who is it that always pipes up with some remark to cheer on the teams? XVhy Alt-ck' of course. ln fact she is noted for some famous remarks made in gym class. Although she hasn't red hair, we know something that will get her going. Helen, being one Of the town girls, we do not see a great deal of herg yet, we know her pretty well. They say she makes an excellent nursemaid, and to verify that statement you need only to ask little Johnnie Burke, for those two are almost inseparable. And. too, visiting alumnae have found a hearty welcome at Aleck's. Vl'c hope that this year's alumnae will be as lucky when they return at some future time. Keep up that smile and luck will always be with you. Margaret 3, gggnggf Peggy Burlington, Vt. GENERAL BUSINESS COLLEGE Somftimf.r I Jit and zhinle, Somf'iimf.r I jun fir. Girls A. A. Cgb C453 Y.

On a bright sunny morning out in Springfield, Bug made his debut and also a resolution to visit V. A. when he got Older. Since he's been with us three years he evidently kept his resolution and we're glad he did, for he's been invaluable to the football team as manager, and a necessary part of the Literary Club machine. Due to his liking for music, his room now holds the greatest capacity record in thc Dorm, boasting some 20 odd fellows on a bed, a dresser, and under the table. The attraction, Outside of Bug, is the orthophonic he has in his room, and from this fact we come to the conclusion that a managership of a football team isn't so bad after all. There-'s one consolation for the underclassmengwhen he goes, he won't be so far away that he can't pay V. A. a visit Once in a while.

C115 Boy's Glee Club CI1, Boyis Double Quartet Bob, the wizard of Oz, the half pint of jones llall, takes his leave of us this June. He leaves an enviable record with us, and a feeling of regret. A natural born leader, he has consistently been the president of his class. Although a shrimp in size, he is a giant in having pluck and fight. Ask any one who saw him at the XI. A. C. game when he played through a whole quarter with a useless arm. No one had more sportsmanlikc qualities on the football team, and this, with his fighting spirit, earned him aVarsity letter three years in succession. Being versatile, Bob made a fine king of a harem in the Vaudeville show and gave a creditable performance scholastically. Peck is the matron of the third floor and is fondly called by his children up there Oz. Everybody's gonna miss li'l Bobby when he goes down to Virginia to taste the southern climate. Best of luck, Bob, we know you'll be class President of '31 at U. of V. QEHYDIPXI Mliljiflikp Carolyn Essex Jet., Vt.

Carolyn and for goodness sakes don't call her Caroline, for she flies into an awful rage if you do, is the worthy editor of this book, and we are sure no one could have edited better than she. Carolyn is truly very ver- satile anyway-from taking cod-liver oil to dancing. And besides, it is rumored that she is a charming hostess on Sunday afternoon, and entertaining farmers at that. But then, he is different from most farmers, isnlt he? She certainly has given herself freely to the various activities of the school, the Lzfe Board, Literary Society, basketball-all have been the better for her presence. YVe wish you all kinds of success in the future, Carolyn. SKU? Zggrhp joel, , Newport, Vt. SCIENTIFIC MIDDLEBURY COLLEGE Noble Roman, he tame, he Jaw, he conquered.

'Klember how he flashed his wares on the gridiron, basketball court, and on the diamond? These, however, are put in the shadows when we consider his scho- lastic record. Although modesty forces him to be a bit taciturn about his inlluence over the fairer sex, it is rumored over the broad lawns of the campus that many are the damsels who cast wistful eyes at this big, bad blonde from the wilds of Newport, who has kept the occupants of Alumni Hall guessing. Big things are expected of you, Joe, at hliddlebury. Your Winning smile, your academic record, and your athletic ability are going to be big factors in your success. The only difference between Adonis and Joe Hardy is 2000 years.

Clark has raised his scholastic standing ever since he has been here by long hard work. One of his great abilities is to wait oII table. Ile has been trained thoroughly and knows all the tricks of getting large tips. Allen never tells of his arts but keeps them for a future date, when the world shall call for him tO display them. They say that sandy haired people are always getting into trouble, but not so with this angelg at least he has never been known to have been caught. Always rcatlv with a cheery hello Or good morning he makes an agreeable class and schoolmate.
