The Peaks Senior Class WARREN LEE JOHNSON “DRINKWATER” Athletic Assocation, ’22-’25; Literary Society, ’23-'25; Football Team,- ’22, 23, '24; Baseball Team, ’23, ’24, ’25; Manager Baseball, ’24; ‘“‘B” Club, 25. He came to us from Moneta five years ago, and we have never been sad since, for his continuous, cheering laugh keeps us in high spirits. “Drinkwater” is a very handsome fellow, as is shown by his popularity with the girls. He is a jolly, good fellow, and has friends on every side. We shall now leave him to the fate of his fair lady friends. Favorite Saying: “I ain’t went out much.” WRAY KINZER SONTET ee Athletic Association, ’24-’25; Literary Society, 23-725, Wray is very ambitious and kind, two qual- ities which will win success. She is witty and good-natured, always joking and teasing. Wray cares not for the opposite sex. She has one weak quality—her curiosity. Favorite Saying: “Great Scotts!” MALCOLM ROY MARSH “SWAMP” Athletic Association, ’23-'25; Literary Society, 723-725, Also. known as “Cotton-head” and “Preacher”, Malcolm is a character who would be noticed in any crowd because of his stately height and dignified bearing. “Swamp” is also a debater of note, never having lost a debate. Some of us have often said we would pity his wife if his results should con- tinue. Favorite Saying: “Oh, pshaw!”

The Peaks SD }¥ em Gee S ——— Senior Class JANE PA RKS GREY “JENNIE” Athletic Association, ’22-’25; Literary Society, °23-'25; Vice-President Sophomore Literary So- ciety, °23; Vice-President Senior Literary So- cety, ’25; Business Manager of Annual. Yes, “Jennie” is a friend to everyone, and a friend whom you can trust at all times. On account of her unselfishness and willing- ness to help others, she is admired by both teachers and pupils, and is always called on to do everything. Favorite Saying: “Present company always omitted.” JANIE FREEMAN HARRIS “SKINNY” Athletic Association, ’24-’25; Literary Society, 723-25. Janie is by no means small of stature, but her heart is twice as large, so that makes it quite enormous. She always has something to say to everyone, and some of the things she says! She keeps us all roaring with laughter at her many witty sayings. ; Favorite Saying: “Hey, Kid!” JOHN WALTER HOPKINS, JR. “PAPA SILVER’—“JACK”’ Athletic Association, ’°’22-’25; Literary Society, ’23-’25; President of Literary Society, ’23; Foot- ball Team, ’22, °23; Captain of Football Team, 24: Basketball Team, ’23, ’24, ’25; Baseball Team, °23, ’24; Vice-President of ‘ B’’ Club, ’25. You would recognize “Jack” at sight as a good fellow and a chum, in all senses of the word. He has a jovial smile and a laugh up his sleeve for everyone. However, “Jack” doesn’t smile when he is playing basketball or football, and many of his opponents are wary when he has the ball in his hands and is coming down the floor or field. He pos- sesses an estimable quality of ready wit, and his attractiveness has made him a favorite in our class. Favorite Saying: “Good day in the morn- ing.”

Senior Class LENA MARSHALL ee LR Uiscay Athletic Association, ’25; Literary Society, ’24- 725. Lena came into our class in our Junior year. She has sailed down the stream of school life with us for two years. “Trix” is very quiet and reserved, but when it comes to Spanish she’s a regular “shark.” She is not without many talents, and we expect to see her classed among the great poets of the day. Favorite Saying: “I can’t.” ROBERT CULTON MORRISON “Mutr’—Bos”—‘SHorty” Athletic Association, °’22-'25; Literary Society, 723-’25; Football Team, °’°22, °23; Basketball Team, ’23, ’25; Manager of Basketball Team, 20 si Ds 2 Clubs “Bob” is one of the most popular boys at B. H. S. He is always ready to give informa- tion to anybody on anything other than Latin, and then he would refer you to Mrs. Brown. He is one of our best athletes, but, unfortu- nately, is always the one to get hurt in the games. He has more high school spirit than most anybody in the school, and that is some- thing everyone admires and which few of us display. Favorite Saying: “Great day in the morn- ing!” PS RUBY ELLEN NICHOLS “NICK” —‘Boosy” Athletic Association, °24-’25; Literary Society, ’24-’25; Basketball Team, ’25. “Nick” has not been in our class very long, but we have learned to love her. She has a quiet and refined manner until you know her quite well, and then—oh, my!—but she’s a “peach.” Ruby has a great deal of fun in her if you just know her well enough. She has done splendid work for the high school in basketball. We don’t know what we would have done without her. Favorite Saying: “She's a sight!”
