Brud, the lanky member of Bump and Brud, lnc., didn't get here until this year, which wasn't very nice of him, considering he just had to walk over from West Chester. Brud's virtues are numerous, but he has one besetting sin, namely, a weakness for pictures of West Chester co-eds. But this is mitigated by the fact that many a Senior owes a feed to Brud's generosity, although to look at him you'd never guess he ate anything.

Bump, also frequently addressed as, Hey, Snake! has only been with us a short time, but already we have come to recognize a dia- mond in the rough. Bump is a. good friend and lots of fun, always leak- ing good humor. His chief hobby is driving a Ford, and he also has a weakness for negro preaching at Cheyney. He and his inseparable companion, Brud, are the original prototypes of Mutt and jeff, but don't let the secret out ' Characteristic: Freight car Cherchcz Ia femme ' MABEL BARTRAM EVANS MARLTON, N. j.

Ah yes, but if wishes were actresses, Mabel would be a slim and fascinating Spanish girl basking in the fame of Hollywood Hall. I-ler penchant for dramatics, however, doesn't stop her from being a prop on the reserve hockey team or hostess at the Bacon Cottage. She lends her abilities cheer- fully to many committees. Good practice for Pierce and business. Characteristic: Powderpuff She will succeed, for she believes all she says Pierce Business College 22

Johnny matriculated at Westtown when long pants seemed as far off as graduation, and vice-versa. He is manager of tennis and wields a mighty racquet. johnny, being of an independent nature. deserted Westtown last year to gain a little worldy experience, so we had the pleasure of welcoming him into our ranks. He made a strong defense , , at halfback for the Varsity, is an expert on railroading, and occasion- ally keeps company with the telephone in the office or reads articles on the Sahara Desert.

When Beck hrst put in her appearance at Westtown who would have thought that she would have become Editor-ln-Chief of the Brown and White and valedictorian of the class, for she doesn t exactly blow her own trumpet, but she does have a bugle which peals forth at startling and unexpected intervals. lf she sets out to do a'th1ng. there's no use trying to dissuade her from her purpose, especially lf she happens to be imitating the high notes of some opera singer. One of her chief hobbies is being out doors, and the lofty tops of the pine trees along South Walk seem to have a certain fascination for her. Characteristic: Brass tack l would rather sit on a pumpkin, and have it all to myseb' than to be crowded on a velvet cushion Grinnell College THOMAS PENNINGTON CONARD 1 55 E.

Tom is a math shark primarily, and a gymnast secondarily, or vice-versa. Whether geometry and trig come before the high bar in this case does not make much difference, but if there happens to be an extra hard algebra assignment, Tom's room is likely to have visitors. He held down left-outside on the second soccer team, and about the same time was busy making out this spring's track schedule. Inci- dentally, he comes in strong for the high jump.

CID, CSD: French Club CID, CSD: Home Economics CID, CSD: Treasure Seekers CSD. Should Miriam undertake to make out an inventory of the contents of her room, she would probably find that such articles as grapefruit, cake, candy, and peanut butter predominated. But we don't have to view an inventory to realize the presence of these goods and chattels, for we have partaken of them joyfully and without stint as she is of genuine jersey stock, which is well versed in the arts of generous hospitality. The graddy pictures that line her walls are mute testimony to the number of her friends. Characteristic: Can-opener Imitation is the sincerest offlattery Mt.

CSD: Mantle of Dignity CSD: Cum Laude When Marg came to raise her voice in song through the Westtown halls, she brought along the usual allotment of Harris brains. She prides herself on having twice led the school in scholarship. Added to this creditable feat is her ability in drawing-how many prizes has she won? Her dignity has gained for her the sober mantle and a place in the realms of elocution. As a crowning grand finale to her West- town days, she stepped into Cum Laude and is to read a Commence- ment Essay. Characteristic z Thrush She is calm because she is mistress of herseU Mt.
