knowing Hagrid's name (obviously knowing about Hagrid's interest in 
monsters became useful to him), but why would Hagrid know his name? 
At this point Tom is 16 and Hagrid is 13 or 14 and (assumingly) they 
are in different houses (I'm assuming that Tom is in Slytherin, and 
that Hagrid wasn't), it just seems odd that they would know each 
other. 
On a similar note, I wonder if Hagrid knows that Tom later became VD? 
(if he did, I wonder if that would be cause to protest his expulsion 
from using magic?). >>>


I guess Hagrid knows Riddle because he is a prefect and top of the classes.  That would explain it. To this comes they have to meet before because Riddle did know about Aragog. This implied Riddle was at first nice and understandable; what after that changed?
