The record of the class of 1918 . 77 1918 HAVERFORD 918 BENNETT SMEDLEY COOPER Raw And finally, Scoop, when I see a young man at the head of a crowd— this is but theclose of the missionary address with which Raw endeavors to turn his friends from theirevil ways. The next part may be a famous Alexandrine piece of wit, or one of the tensemoments from great plays that he is so fond of repeating to us. Raw is a man of varied activity, or inactivity, for he is not only bitten by the baseballbug in its most virulent form, but finds time to manage the baseball team (yes, they call itthat), see every show that comes to town, captain the glorious Senior basket-ball team toits triumphal close and argue with Nevin. He has two great aversions. The first is almost praiseworthy and is a hatred of workin any form, especially if this work is required. A close-up of Raw studying would show himrolling a cigarette, ruffling his hair, figuring just how much he needs to pass the course, or. saying something like this: Gee, there is a swell chorus at . Im going in tonight. His second dislike is for girls and is inexplicable. We prophesy a hard and sudden fall,with a most sickening thud, in the near future. But life for Raw is not all one grand sweet song, for he is the sick man of Europe andpossesses internal workings that are peculiar to the extreme; every pill that is known toman can be found in his pocket or desk. Whoever in the class may change in the future, we know that Raw will be the hair may part company with him, he may change the Dodge for a Stutz, he may movefrom Moorestown to Narberth, but for richer or poorer, better or worse, he will still remainthe king of the soda-mint fighters and still will he be able to give us his realistic, world-famousimitation of a seal. We kid Raw a lot; he not only takes it well but has a come-back every time. Andit is his good nature that makes him one of the most popular fellows in the class. 78 1918 CLASS RECORD 918 F
