Putrid jokes, sex, swearing, and even inhahng are tab(X) in the All American atmosphere of upper eighth entry. Dignified discussion and the harmonious synthesis of cultured intellect will always prevail in argument among these classical students. John Eagleton is a man of many talents, not the least of which is his amazing ability to migrate occasionally to Washington and Neets on little or no cash. However, his income is constantly supplemented by the accomplished techniques of baby-sitting, caddying, and waiting, John loves to wait except for high grades in his major field of political science. Always cheerful, his conscience is clear enough to talk in his sleep. If you listen closely to these mumblings you can hear John's strategy for his checkmates, grand slams, repostes, and holes in one. For a man who claims that he does not know where he is going he is bound to get there. Earl Harrison is the only person in college who can carry on an intelligent conversation while paying no attention to what he or anyone else is saying. Being one of Ira's boys, he has thoroughly mastered the sociological jargon; as a result he is able to carry on brilliant conversations about anything or nothing to the amusement of his roommates. He possesses many admirable stiindards, all of which he wishes that he had broken at one time or another. Captaining the MAS championship soccer team, he ended his soccer career in an outstanding fashion. His personal charm, deep conviction, and keen insight assure success in life, for which he has great zest. High man on the emotional stability chart and the most eligible bachelor in this foursome is homespun Bob Feeser. The numerous governmental myths and harangues of R(xhe and Co. have failed to opinionate and warp this steadfast lad. His middle class morals only rarely appear paradoxical as the life of "Feez" is increas- ingly serene. Never under par, he has nevertheless captained the Fords' greatest golf team. Bob's unassuming leadership has also been effective in the administrative affairs of class president and again as the hustling captain on the basketball floor. Modesty can not hide his strength and his genial nature will always, as it has at Haverford, bring Bob many friends. Finally, there is the capable cartoonist Christ White who knows how to draw the line except for women. In this strange character we find a combination of Calypso, bagpipes, and banjo music, he mournfully staring into the distance. Mountain climber, accomplished ornithologist, star soccer fullback, Alaska adventurer, Chris was long ago converted to the realities of bugs, beetles, snakes, corpuscles, duodenums, and skeletons: in short, Sharpless Hall. His car, or should one say taxi, become Eighth's avenue to BMC or rather faith, hope, and frustration. Although his future is at present uncertain, it is promising.
