Tennis hfanager QQ, Hockey Q43 Track Q4lg Yaude- ville Night C4D. Coming to us this fall from that far renowned land of East Orange, Smitty's first accomplishment was to earn his class numerals in the lntra-Mural Tennis Tournament. He is manager of the tennis team. But his ability to win more than tennis matches is shown easily when one considers his visits in Alumni Hall. But Sunday afternoon matches are no more-as-well, ask Smitty-he knows. Smitty played a fast game of hockey with the team until, owing to a decree of destiny, he discontinued this sport. He is now out for track, and when he leaves the ground on one of lIis mighty pole vaults, or high jumps, one wonders when welll see him again. And to top all of these activities Howard is a piano player of no mean ability. Vile know that with all these abilities Smitty is bound to make a success in business, in St. Johnsbury or elsewhere. jllfllllljdkl QUIUIIITCRP ' Nlidf-1lCbUfYi Vt- Al2e,' HSam Mike SCIENTIFIC UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA Iliff a V.

Anyway, Smiley was aII invaluable asset to the football team at center, aIId his ol' stocky form was as easy to get past as a stone wall. After football season he gave a sterling game of basketball to the team. Another proof of his all around ability is that he's way up in all lIis subjects and is a good man on the class room floor. Maybe helll get disgusted with college again next year and return to us. XYho knows? If he doesn't, he knows we're with him.

When Eddie isn't laughing he is smiling and when he isn't smiling-well, no one has ever seen him with a long face. Eddie came to us through R. Baillie lflldredge, fresh from Staunton hlilitary Academy. His reputation was indeed enviable botlI as a cadet and an athlete. That he has lived up to his reputation was proven on the gridiron. Coach Burke picked him as tlIe best tackle on the all-competition team, but lid has done more than this. His acting in the Literary play cannot go without men- tion, as it was exceptionally good. His name too has appeared on the honor list more than once. So, in Eddie we have a character of which this institution may well be proud. He expects to go to XVest Point.

I llow will our musical organizations fare next year without the aid of Dick's silvery tenor.

Si is the little giant of Saxtons River. Although ofa quiet nature he plays a trumpet and is always right there when a first class trum- peter is needed. Ile is a very good hockey player and credit is due him for his work with that team. Along with these non-scholastic merits, Si has the ability of gliding through his subjects as one who knows all about them. We can't forget the showing that he made ski jumping at our recent YVinter Carnival. It has been rumored that we have here a young poet who writes exclusively for the in- mates of Alumni Hall. lle is an all round good fellow and we expect great things of him.

About the first of December Grace decided that she would live in the dormitory, and we are all glad that she made such a decision for we have become a great deal better acquainted with her than when she commuted. We all know her to be a good student, earnest in every- thing she does and helpful in a quiet way. This Maid of Athens we all consider pretty fortunate in that she packs up and leaves us about every other week-end for her home. She is a loyal friend and we know that with such qualities success and happiness will surely he Iers. .W,gMJWLW.g un- ml 512: C KJ ff the U It m6 LMLECQZ O

After working for three years he returned to complete his education among the Green Mountains. Back again with us this year Billls hearty laugh can be heard most anytime. Since injury from football prevented Steinie from going out he got into the other, and just as important, side of the game, and has been an inspiring cheer leader. He deserves a great deal of credit for the wonderful support the teams received and, altho' he wasn't in the fight, he played a large part in their victories. Bill, being an ol'-timer, has the knowing and wise way of the school as, of course, befits a senior. Steinhoff was one of the premier stars in the Vaudeville show, even tho' he couldn't be re- cognized, and, when you canlt recognize slue-footed Steiny, itls some show. We're gonna miss him next year and hope some good college gets this man. Qflganmj Qfuhjgll Eleanor Saxtons River, Vt. GENERAL You'd be Surpr1.ffa'. lileanor journeys every day up the hill from down town to attend classes. Being naturally quiet it has been rather hard to become acquainted with her, but one thing is very evident and that is that she is a good student. Nothing less than a 90 or a QS for her! We know that if you keep up the good work you will succeed. Oh yes! we almost forgot to mention how much those cakes, that you have sent up to .Xhunni llall from time to time, have been appreciated. VVe poor creatures do get so ravenousl VVe'll be making some more bets in Alumni llall if that is to be our reward, provided we can pre- vail on Betty to do her part. ima?

Mae has worked faithfully on the basketball squad for three years, and we know that the team was better for having an old stand-by. Tinkis a peach and is always ready to do her share. She makes a wonderful chairman for committees, and we did appreciate her work for the Y. XV. affairs. You're a good sport hlae and your class won't forget how much better it is for having you in it. kiafafwf wfrdq!
