a A) A) A A (a OO A A ES , = ee ) |) KENNETH DEW WALKER “Kenneth” Philologian Society, ’22; Basketball, ’26; Vice-Presi- dent of Athletic Association; Class Historian; Joke Editor of Tut Nuntius; Minstrel, °26; Class Play, ’26. “Fle possesses a peculiar talent of producing effect in whatever he says or does.” Kenneth, our class historian, is a very witty fellow. He is fond of laughing in school and making others laugh. It seems as if he will never get over his babyhood. Although he is grown he still has to have some kind of a toy to amuse himself with in school. If Ken- neth should lose these traits we would not know him. AVIE BOOKER WOOD “Booker Wooker”’ Athletic Association; Class Play, ’26. “Not too sober, not too gay, but a good true gil m every way.” To her literary knowledge “Booker Wooker,” bas had the culinary art, and that of “some fisherman too.” So vou may expect to find her able to “cook what she catches,” and much more that she doesn’t. i), Y WILLIE CATHERINE WOOD 3.0 a Athletic Association; Class Play, Grumbler. ’ 26; Class “Owuwet in appearance with motive unknown.” We wonder what Willie would take for that hard-boiled look she has. She says, “Be hard- boiled and let nature do the painting.” Al- though “Bill” gets a little careless with her temper once in a while she should be con- sidered a good classmate. . Willie has to study real hard sometimes, but she’s determined to make good. PAGE TWENTY Che s2untius LA L$ | | | |) A A) A ea 7 A A) (| eI OS A A A A A) A A A ) SE — — == OO P P a P a ee ee a

ee Oh DO OO = pa re re 6 re eg HENRY REESE SMITH be =A “Smittie” oe Treasurer of ’°26; Athletic Association; Assistant Business Manager of Tur Nunrtius. “Tf he ever worried, we never knew it.” “Smittie’ is always honest, good-natured, and friendly. He is an excellent worker and always does his work willingly. Reese never lets his lessons interfere with business, but somehow gets through, so we know he will always do so in after life. He himself is a valuable friend, and consequently has scores of friends everywhere. ep ANNIE HANCOCK TURNER “Annie” Athletic Association; Testator of °26; Senior Play, Wirelaibnatiatine cose 24m cone On “Works while she works, and plays while she plays.” Annie has the ability to do many things and all well, especially that of being a good libra- rian. Her wisdom, congeniality, and pleasant ways have won for her a place in the hearts of all. She is sincere, dependable, and just her own self. She has indeed shown herself a loyal member of ’26. ep LEWIS ALEXANDRIA VAUGHAN “Lewis” Philologian Society, ’22; Minstrel, ’26; Athletic As- sociation; Class Play, ’26; Jests of ’26. “Witty, studies spasmodically.” Lewis was elected the laziest boy in class, but we do not of course think so. Although a sheik he is often blushing when the ladies are around him. Lewis is liked by all the class for his good nature and witty remarks.

Upon “Tom’s” shoulders rests much of the respon- sibility for the success of the class annual, but “Tom’s” shoulders are broad, he has aimed high again, and hit the mark, and is worthily leading the Seniors through their last year at Altavista High.
