The record of the class of 1918 . in the family and end with a eulogy of her dancing. He, hinriself, cantrip the light fantastic and is the premiere danseuse of the class—why. now that Vernon hastaken the count, we can amend that to read—of the world. 93 918 HAVERFORD 918 EDWARD SHEPPARD THORPE, Jr. Ed A loud peal of laughter rang down the hall. Thorpe had just cracked a joke. Ed hasa keen sense of humor and, coupled with this, he rooms with Weston; they together have aseries of key sentences that will send the other or themselves into delirium. But Ed is not one of the butterflies of the class who spend their time in innocent amuse-ment. Every minute of his time is occupied in the attainment of the final goal of course this does not interfere with his sports, for he is a member of the soccer team aswell as being the captain of the track team. But mention Biology and he is off. Watson made this mistake in one of his classeswhen we were discussing the problem of Gametic Segregation. The rest of the course. was a series of debates by these two authorities, Thorpe winning the contest by referringto three books and using ten words that no one else had ever heard of. He has many little foibles. One is the belief that he knows what he is talking worst of it is that he does and he is a dispenser of information on any subject from theaction of the cyclic hydrocarbons to the result of interbreeding of white rats with shortsweet peas. Ed also possesses a violin. There was a time when this instrument was oneof torture, but Senior year he showed the results of his practice by his leading of the Man-dolin Club, for he gave the college one of the best clubs that it has ever had. We know what Ed is going to be in after life. There will be a large office with a longline of people waiting to be seen. Inside will be Ed doling out the wisdom of the ages at afabulous sum per word. Outside will be his Packard waiting to take him out to the MainLine and to another
