CHARLES CARRISON Charles tells u that he formerly lived at Scotch Plains and has never done anything interesting. Fie is either the man Diogenes was looking for, or, as we suspect, he is an overly modest member of our class. We happen to know that his favorite subject is mathematics. If you ever want to buy a used car, we advise you to see Charles, for he knows how to select one. twenty seven
