EUGENE GRADY Commercial Niblick Whatsn wrong! Class Day Committee: Christmas Party. Niblick cannot conceal that he is Irish. I suppose thatfs respon- sible for his jolly nature.

Jake plans to take a trip after school ends, and we wish him plenty of success in life. THOMAS HAGER Academic Tom Arc you going to the Dewrlrop? A good natured fellow all the time, that's 'l'om.
