• Notes

  CPL. PRIOR ALLENBY PHILIP "Smokey" was born in Galt at a very early age and we suspect that most of his younger days there were spent in practising sleight-of-hand. From Galt Collegiate Institute he came to the College in the fall of '29 to take the "long course". He soon showed us that besides being an authority on "spaghetti. Italian style", and economics, he is an outstanding athlete. Captain of golf and track teams, along with basketball and two years of First Team rugby have taken up considerable of his time, to say nothing of his feats on the billiard table which have always been a source of amazement, even to himself. Crossed swords and layer's badge also show his ability in other work. He leaves us this spring to enter the insurance business and we have every confidence in his success.F. W. I. R. M. C.
