GEORGE HENRY HAYNES Jinny AKE E BK It was in our Junior year that we first came into contact with “Jinny” in the classroom, and signed our names as subscribers to the Independent. Al¬ ways will we remember those five-minute quizzes, when we strove to write as much as possible on subjects which we knew absolutely nothing about. “Jinny’s” first act on entering the lecture room is to pull up his drawing stand to its topmost limit. He then arranges an enormous number of papers in an orderly manner and takes attendance. Then perhaps he recalls some bit of humor, and before telling it to the class, he begins to stare vacantly into space, his mustache twitching in a peculiar manner. He succeeded in making his courses interesting, though most of us were pre¬ pared to detest them. “Jinny” has always been an active worker for Tech, and is often seen at social af¬ fairs. His work on the Tech Journal is something which every Tech man should ap¬ preciate. WALTER LOUIS JENNINGS “Hughie ’ “The Kaiser ” During Freshman year we saw very little of this gentleman, but when as Sophomores we took Qualitative we realized that many of his nick¬ names had deep and subtle meanings. His state¬ ment: “I shall ask some very searching questions on this examination,” proved all too true. During Junior year he led us through the intricate laby¬ rinth of Organic, and in his lectures on the His¬ tory of Chemistry, during Senior year, we dis¬ covered the human side of his nature. As a teach¬ er and lecturer, we can say that he knows his sub¬ ject and also knows how to present it. The notes we have taken in his lectures would fill a library. 28
