GEORGE HENRY HAYNES AKE I BK 2H “Jinny” Professor Haynes is a man and teacher who can be appreciated only by the more mature minds. Thus it was not until we were Juniors that we came in contact with him. After the introductory course in Economics, came Poli¬ tical Science. It was then that we formed the impression that all politicians are crooks some of the time, and some of them are crooks all of the time. As Seniors we found Business Law remarkably condensed and valuable. Dr. Haynes is quite a master of literature, as evidenced by his many writings. The great appeal of the Journal is largely attributable to his editorial genius. Lest you forget, we quote again, “Sinning by Syndicate,” an acme of allur¬ ing alliteration. “Jinny” has long been a booster for Tech and a zealous worker for all prin¬ ciples of justice. We should characterize him as an excellent teacher, an au¬ thority on Economics, an enthusiastic civic worker and a real friend of his students. AFTKRinATA 1923 WALTER LOUIS JENNINGS “Hughie” “The Kaiser” “The Kink” “Pussyfoot” “Doc” The first subject which we studied as full- fledged chemists was Qualitative Analysis un¬ der the leadership of the Herr Director Pro¬ fessor Walter Louis Jennings. With our course in Chem 4 in mind, we en¬ tered our Junior year with leaden feet, for we were to have “Hughie” in Foreign Chemical Literature,- and in Organic Chemistry. We were soon disillusioned, for we found “Doc” to be a pretty good fellow after all, even though he did mistake our abstract course to be one in “German Chemical Literature.’’ Even Organic did not seem so bad with him to explain it to us, for this is the “King’s” own domain.
