Carl was born in Scottsville, Virginia, October iq, iSqj, but early migrated to Millboro and completed his preparatory education at Clifton Forge High, and then in that good old school. The School of Hard Knocks. First he specialized in civil engi- neering in West Virginia, then he made good use of the knowledge gained there, in the Engineering Corps of the U, S, Army during the world war. After the war, Carl, like lots of us, decided that more education would be a great asset to him, and in iqiq he was seen wearing the little Freshman cap around Lexington. He has made himself very conspicuous in the Engineering School since then. At the end of his Freshman year he was awarded the Engineering Schol- arship, and since then has been a student instructor, first in physics and then in civil engineering. He is also an honored presi- dent this year, and we ' ll say we have a good one. 1923 FUT 33oNALD Gideon Grimley Ridgewood, New Jersey i B K ; Physics Scholarship. 2: Electrical Engineering Scholarship, . There are always a few men who are rec- ognized on the Campus as natural sharks in one or more lines, Skeet ' is one of the few recognized as a shark in all of his courses — a permanent fixture on the Honor Roll. He came to W. and L. in iqio from Ridge- wood High School, N, J , He is the first man to take the Electrical Engineering degree from W, and L. and expects to follow that line ot industry. Since his arrival on the Campus he has made a host of friends and has truly gained the reputation of being a jolly and likable fellow.

In iqiq Rudy joined the Freshman Glass, and by dint of constant application to tasks allotted, and natural brilliance, he graduated with the Class of ' 22. performing the unusual feat of attaining a degree in three years. However, it was strenuous work, so now he is back in the social classes. leaving no stone unturned which might possibly conceal some pleasure. Rudolph often reminds us that he is an engineer, and verifies this by numerous accounts ot his work on the Mississippi levees last summer. .According to the number of darke - laborers he says he pulled from the angry and turbulent currents, it seems more plausible that life saving should be his chosen field of endea or. .Aside from all satire. Washington and Lee loses a worthy son of whom she may well be proud. Rudy is a man four- square and genuine, of genial disposition, optimism not excelled by Coue ' s, and count- less other sterling qualities. We say that he will be a good engineer. Luck to you, Rudv. 1923 William Dennison Kelly Bluefield, West Virginia 4 K ! ' ' ; David C. Humphreys Engineering Society: Basketball Squad, j, 4. Carrying with him the united well wishes of his host of friends on the Campus as well as the coveted sheepskin, Bill was grad- uated this year with the degree of Bachelor of Science in Engineering. .After having be- gun his studies elsewhere, Bill finally selected Washington and Lee as the insti- tution in which to round out his education. .As a member of the Varsity basketball squad for the last two years, he has demonstrated that participation in athletics has in no way detracted from his ability to gather in high grades. Whatever may be the stability of the things that Bill may erect for the world in the future, it is certain that the columns ot friendship which he has built up during his stay here will remain standing for all time. A true tricnd and a gentleman. Bill leaves the Campus with the heartiest good wishes of all who know, him r s c Seventy-nine
