Die toile The Peaks Senior Class MILDRED OVERSTREET “COUNTRY” Athletic Association, ’22-’25; Literary Society, ’23-'25; Vice-President Literary Society, °’23; Secretary Literary Society, ’25. Here is one of the favorites of our class. We shall never forget Mildred’s kindness and her willingness to do what we ask her to do. She has a way that makes everyone feel that he is wanted there. She has more good old common sense than most anyone we come across, and as for playing the piano she is hard to beat. Mildred has contributed a large part in making our class what it is, Favorite Saying: “Heck, no!” MORTON ELDRIDGE PADGETT, JR. “Daisy MIpDLINGs”’ Athlete Association, °23-'25; Literary Society, ’23-’25; President of Senior Class; Manager of Baseball Team, ’25. Morton is the first Senior to graduate with twenty units, and accordingly is a very prolific linquist, speaking fluently Latin, Spanish and French, besides English, in which he is al- ways most profuse. Because of this profuse- ness of speech Miss Patterson is always giv- ing him time, but at the end of the period he always manages to talk her out of making him serve it. Favorite Saying: “I ain’t the man I used to be.” GEORGETTE PARKER “SQuSsH” Athletic Association, °’22-’25; Literary Society, '23-'25; Secretary and Treasurer of Senior Class; Basketball, ’24, ’25; Manager of Basketball, ’25; Editor-in-Chief of Annual; President of ‘B’’ Club. Whole-hearted and enthusiastic is ‘“Sqush.” She puts life in everything she does. She is able and willing to do anything you ask her to do. The Senior Class was fortunate in se- curing such a capable girl as she as editor- in-chief of THE PEAks, for such a responsible position requires one who possesses patience, perseverence and efhciency. We wish success to this lovable, dependable and attractive girl. Favorite Saying: “That reminds me.”

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!”

Her gocd sportsmanship and happy- smiles are carried even to the basketball court, where she has proved herself to be an exceptional player. May life always flow along as easily for “Kitty” in after years as it has in her school life.’ Favorite Saying: “I'm sorry.” MAGGIE DAY PATTERSON “Dumps” Literary Society, °’23-'’25; Athletic Association, 725. Maggie has a kind and true heart. She is very studious, but in spite of the fact that she spends most of her time studying, she finds just a few minutes to walk “Over-street.” Her aim is to be a school teacher, and we are sure that she will be as successful as she has been at B. H. S. Best luck to you, Maggie. Favorite Saying: “Can you blame me?” RUBY MAY RAMSEY er TLDLEe Athletic Association, ’22-’25; Literary Society, '23-°25, Ruby is a jolly girl who is never blue, al- ways ready to lend a helping hand whenever she is called upon. She usually wears a broad smile on her face, but when she passes the “drug store” the smile becomes still broader. We wonder why. She has all prospects for a bright future and here are our best wishes to you, Ruby. Favorite Saying: “I guess so.”
