THE BOMB-191 ' 7 John Townsend Bancroft new york, n. y. Matriculated 1914 John -Happn am 1; from care am I frac: Why aren ' t thc ) all contcnteJ lit{c me? Third Class: Private Co. A. Second Class: Private Co. E ; Marshal Final First Class: Private Co. E Marshal Final German. r EHOLD, gentle reader, a youth who hails from the metropolis. He matricu- lated in the fall of 1914 as a Third Class Rat, and in that capacity popu- larity was his middle name. He is a little shy of the calics, but he cannot suppress his admiration for them. John made his debut at the Hops during Finals, 1916. In the Final Ball figure he certainly did shine — equal to Apollo. Church receptions and dining in limits are among his social activities. He has the friendship of a Greek for those that know him well, and he and one of his friends are like Damon and Pythias. Good luck, John. Be a great man some day. We can depend on you to uphold the V. M. I. Spirit.

George Waller Blow la salle, ill. Matriculated 1914 Uno, Sergeant Major, Ambrose He an of unbounJcJ .stomach. Third Class: Privaie Co. F. Second Class: Mandolin Club; Cadet Dialectic Society; Cadel Orchestra; Marshal Final FiRST Class: Mandolin Club; Cadet Dialectic Society; Cadel Orchestra; Marshal Final German. I HIS handsome lad with the smiling countenance made his debut amongst us in the high brow capacity of a Third Class Rat. It didn ' t take him long to demonstrate his ability as a possessor of unlimited grey matter, for much to the surprise and chagrin of the mean Third Classmen, he speedily outdistanced them by taking first stand in his class. None can question his innocence after glancing at that Sunny Jim smile. His room-mates during his Second Class year very nearly ruined him in this respect, but fate speedily severed their ruinous influence, and Uno still sticks to the straight and narrow. Amby swears by all that ' s good and holy that he is immune from the sharpest dart from Cupid ' s bow. It must be because he can ' t find a calic who suits him, for we are sure no fair senorita could resist his wiles. If you want to see him blush, ask the origin of the word Uno. Here ' s to you, Ambrose; none of us doubt your ability to make your mark in the cold, cold world. Dont call me that. 1
