I hronqtecska O Marylou Britt (Science) Miss Britt has the admiration and respect of every one who ever opened a physics book. She actually sees sense in it. Clara Gibbs Dally (Science) There is no dilly dallying’' in Miss Daily’s room. She knows her science—you know she knows it—you know that you must know yours or 'dally’’ long in learning it. Lacy Stephens Terry (Science) This is Fess, who told the Freshmen what to expect if the world stopped turning around; and then struck them speechless with the rat experiment. Orion Mitchell (Mathematics) Mr. Mitchell produces both geometry sharks and football heroes. He is equally good at both but excites more interest with his gridiron stars. FLORA Cox (Mathematics) Miss Cox is a good ’Math'’ teacher but have you seen her P. C. Club perform? They certainly swing a wicked baseball bat. Willie Wood (Mathematics) Wood? Would what? Would teach Freshmen Algebra, that’s what! Miss Wood is famous for having the most infectious laugh in high school. Bonnie Hunter (Mathematics) And a Bonnie good Hunter is she! She actually found brains in Freshmen, besides being able to find square roots any time of the day. Sybil Hampton Moran (Home Economics) Everything, from broken legs and heart trouble to indigestion and injured feelings, finds its way to Mrs. Moran. She always knows what to do for them. H. M. Mills (Commercial) This is a Mill that grinds slow and exceedingly fine. When Mr. Mills sends one of his products into the business world, great things are expected of him. Esther B. Waddell (Commercial) Experience is by industry achieved, and perfected by the swift course of time. This applies to Mrs. Waddell’s method of teaching typewriting. The results speak well for the motto and the teacher. Elizabeth Sneed Bell (Music) And a melodious Bell she is. Just this year she has to her credit an operetta and a minstrel, besides numerous musical programs for chapel. She has trained an orchestra that is a credit to the Albany High School. Page Eight

----------------------------Thron tct ska------------------------ Message from the Principal It has been a great year. Due in no small degree to the fine spirit of co-operation and leadership of this class of 27, every undertaking of the year at the school has been a success. The class of '27 has led and the student body has followed. 1 he most marked achievement of the year has been the acquirement by the student body of a student-body consciousness, a sense of cohesion, an esprit de corps, a feeling of pride and joy in the school. In consequence of this fine spirit, we have been able to do some things that have meant much to the school this year and which will mean more in the years to come. The Student Council has been organized and has done most helpful work in co-ordinating faculty and student thinking. The various clubs organized during the year have given a touch of spontaneity, individuality and variety to all our school life. Especially is this to be noted in the assembly. The efficiency and fine sportsmanship of the athletic teams of the school are highly commendable. The intellectual caliber of individual players and the team-work of the squad were outstanding characteristics of our championship football team. The support given athletics and all other enterprises of the school by students and community at large has been highly gratifying. It is evident that the citizens of Albany believe in their high school. They have given us an excellent building and equipment. But the community can not build the school nor the school the community. Nor can either in itself build itself. But in collaboration they can build both a great school and a great community. The High School looks forward with eagerness to the task.
