This silent, blonde youth slipped into M. Id. S. and quietly went about his duties as a sportsman and a scholar. Well known for his quiet mannerisms, Charlie is an ardent sports fan and is especially interested in swimming. T’is also rumored that he has a fine set of vocal chords. Charlie’s destination is uncertain, but we are sure he will go f,ar on the road to success.
