Sam's mighty left-hook saved many a game for our undefeated soccer team. It would almost seem from his record that Sam is a super-athlete and naught else. For a proof of the opposite theory, behold Sam seated on the high seat of justice garbed in the robes of President of the Student Body. We hear tell that Sam is a graceful dancer in foreign fields, and we have but to watch him on the ice to believe the tale. Characteristic: Toy car Ability involves responsibility Penn State HELEN BACON FALLSINGTON, PA. Entered Fall l923 Atlienians CZD: Latin Club C2D, CID: Home Economics CSD: Union CSD, Secretary CSD. Helen is not often chaotic, but she is sometimes quite audible, expecially if she has occasion to express her opinion. Her favorite pastime is reading, perhaps, for English. At other times she is quite apt to be writing letters or marshaling a sturdygroup of young charges to Fifth-day meeting. Everybody and every group likes to see Helen, for her gentle smile and artless manner act as a soft summer zephyr. Characteristic: Sugar lump I f you would be loved, love and be lovable RICHARD COLLINS BAKER HAVERFORD, PA. Entered Fall l9Z4 Parliamentary CSD: Latin Club CSD: junior Varsity Soccer Team CSD, Insignia CSD, Class Soccer Team CSD. . Richard is one of the shining lights of our class. He ariseth while it is yet dark, and once in awhile we see a faint glow after lights. He studies Physics, Latin, and German, and he studies them mighty hard. The two things he is most noted for are a steady left-hook in soccer season and a sure alarm clock for the Senior section. just remember, Dick, Nothing is denied to well-directed labor.

Mon, of the curly hair and elastic grin, plays center-half or right outside in soccer with the same speed and self-control with which he holds down first in the balmy days of spring. just to keep in condi- tion, Curly scintillates at forward on the basketball team. Really, you know, one can't praise a fellow too much when he enters school one year and makes all the teams, including the relay, and gets elected to the Student Council and Treasurer of the A.A., the next. ln spite of all we can do, his sense of duty deeps him on the straight and narrow path. Characteristic: Hair curlers A little nonsense now and then I s relished by the wisest men Antioch Treasurer WARNER WINSLOW GARDNER DAHLONEGA, GA. Entered Spring l92I Ataraxa C3D, Vice-President C3D,' Brightonians C3D, C2Dg Union CSD. President CSD,- Natural History Committee CSD: Brown and White Board CSD.

When Warner saw what kind of a class we were, he decided to stay out of school a year. just to be a member of the Class of '26. When he returned, we entrusted him with our class money. He made such a good collector that we gave him a harder job, Business Manager of this book. which he Filled just as capably. But Warner isn't always serious-ask Willie Maier. Besides being a rabid Democrat, his other redeeming features are an angelic expression and an ability to get unearned A's.

Entered Fall l922 Athenians C3D, CZD: Second Hockey Team CID,-Latin Club C3D, C2D, CID: French Club C2D, CID, CSD: Home Economics C2D, CID, CSD: Class Hockey Team C3D, C2D, CID, CSD: Union CSD. Whenever there's a big show, there must be innumerable people behind the scenes whose small deeds faithfully performed have made the performance possible, and Phebe has filled this niche for our class. Many a time has she saved a dress from complete destruction by removing an erstwhile determined inkspot. Also the botany class can bear testimony to her unassuming dependability in sap-collecting season. The same characteristics have given Phebe a staunch position among the Hockey Reserves.

CID. Manolo arrived at Westtown six years ago from Cuba, and we have been laughing ever since. Life is too fleeting for seriousness: therefore he kids Mary Fitz-Patrick to exasperation and the girls to giggles. Joli has a keen eye for business. l-le has a flourishing trade in crackers, has Filled the treasurer's position in nearly every club, and acts as Circulation Manager for these volumes. Manolo has a throne in shop, and was once a most eflicient boss of the Local Chapter of Convicts. Characteristic: Monkey A fool cannot be an actor, tho an actor may act a fool's part I9 MARLTON, N.

If you would like to know an optimist, just strike up an aquaint- ance with Barton. Dropping wise remarks in her wake she wanders along to classes five minutes late without a cloud in her sky. But that's not all. Should you want executive ability, you'll find she's just your person: as examples of this propensity you see Fellowship and North- field.
