After college he will enter the University’s law school. Francis Schlegel Industrial Scientific With roguish look and merry laugh. It is true that Mic” is a lady’s man; nevertheless, this fact has not interfered with his school work and Mic’s four years in High School have been a great success.

Nevertheless, there is a lot behind Scotty’s jovial manner; he has a strong character and makes a staunch friend, especially when he has his Vim around. Have you ever seen Scotty refuse anyone a lift unless he’s loaded with ladies? Cliff expects to enter Haverford College next Fall.

And. since it is the people who think that get there. we are sure she will make a success in the business world which she intends to enter soon. Her employer, who ever he may be. is indeed for- tunate.
