THE 1943 PIII TREE Z WILLIAM CAMPBELL ARNOLD, III STATEN ISLAND, NEW Yomc It is not only for obvious reasons that '4Cuddles', will fill an extra large niche in Woodberryis Hall of Fame. The fact that he has been one of the School's most distinguished athletes-evidenced by his Captaincy of football and Co-Captaincy of wrestling-partly accounts for his universal popularity, but surely his ability to win friends matched his athletic prowess. From the first he evinced qualities of leadership: capability and a humour by turns suave and up- roarious clinched his positions as member of the Hop Committee, President of the Smoke House, and Prefect. Colorful, amiable, and full of fun, Will has made as fine a record as any Woodberry could boast of.

THE WIIIIIIBEBHY FUHEST SEHIJUI. SIDNEY SHERRILL ALDERMAN, JR. WASHINGTON, D. C. Those who peer beneath the tranquil surface of Sidney's penson- ality are rewarded by glimpses of a conscientious, affectionate nature. He might well be called a conservative for he never enters into an adventure without making sure of it. But there have been plenty of adventures since his first arrival at Woodberry-just ask him about those Cottage A escapades. Endowed with remarkable mechanical talents, Sid was an inveterate tinkerer and builder in the shop, at the same time contributing capable work as star photog- rapher for the Oracle. A student of capacities, he often revealed flashes of subtle wit within the conlines of English themes, as well as elsewhere throughout the School.

THE WUIIDBEHRY FIIHEST SIIHIIIIL WILLIAM MUIR BUSSEY ST. PETERSBURG, FLORIDA Ever since he entered school three years ago this native of St, Pete has distinguished himself by his likeable ways and his ability to get things done. A hard-driving hack, Bill this fall graduated from the Jayvees to the Varsity Reserves, while in the winter and spring he efficiently managed track. ln the realm of outside activi- ties he occupied a position on the Chapel Council as well as im- portant posts on both the Oracle and THE FIR TREE. The election of Bus to the Prefect Board reasserted the maxim that good humor and willingness to work still constitute the formula for success at Woodberry.
