John Pendergast
John Pendergast
A.A., Phi Alpha.
    John is our most sober, sedate and serious Senior. He has always assumed his grown-up attitude in school hours, but we doubt if he does at other times. It must be admitted that, at times, he does lose his serious manner. He is just like the rest of us the — ready for anything. John is somewhat of a mystery, however; a difficult one, at that.
    "A wise man never loses anything, if he has himself." — Montiagne.
Allan Prentiss
Allan Prentiss
Math., Phi Alpha, Dramatic.
    "Al" is one of our cheerful, witty fellows. Did you ever see him without his smile? Though "Al" seems to all of us to be happy-go-lucky, he always succeeds in what he undertakes. But his special hobby is mechanical drawing, and we know from the '24 seal in "53" that "Al" well deserves the name of artist.
    "Fie! What a spendthrift he is with his tongue!" — Shakespeare.
Sidney Preston
Sidney Preston
A.A., Math., Phi Alpha.
    Here's one truth about "Sid." You have to look up to him. "Sid" is one of our giants — and a good-natured one too. His motto is "Smile and be happy," and he certainly lives up to it. He is very much interested in science, if you want to know anything in that line, just ask him. He never lacks for friends and is most popular among his fellows.
    "A true friend is forever a friend." — MacDonald.
Howard Pringle
Howard Pringle
Math., Phi Alpha.
    Howard is one of the long, lanky men of the class and hails from the far-off corners of Holyoke. Is he popular? Foolish question number8,475. Howard has many friends and secures them by two methods. They are, first, Howard Pringle, and second, his car. Eh, what! No fair telling secrets!
    "Society is the master and man the servant." — Sala.
Kenneth Riley
Kenneth Riley
A.A., Phi Alpha.
    "Kenny" is not one of the type of Mr. Stryver. Because he seems so quiet and moves his own gait, paying little attention to anyone he is sometimes in the background. But "Kenny" is well-liked by all the members of '24, and especially by his close friends. He is one of the few who can take a sarcastic remark good-naturedly, and that's why we like him.
    "Behavior is like a mirror in which everyone shows his image." — Goethe.
