MEMORIES BILLY STEED, Jr. A serious thought or worthwhile idea never came Billy's way. Billy is always willing to do what the crowd wants to do. Sine Nomine '36: Lambda Pi Sigma '36-'38, The Crouchers '37. ELIZABETH C. TOWNSEND The name sounds familiar but we can't seem to place her. Let's see -why that's Betsy. She's been keeping that nice name from us all these years. What was it that Shakespeare said about a rose smelling as sweet if you called it by its real name? Girls' Hi-Y '36-'38: The Crouchers '37, Masks and Wigs '38, JOE WEATHERLY In Chosef we have the major part of our football team. We put the ball between the posts when we say he is our choice for All-American. Bon Ami '36, Basketball '36: D Club '36-'38, Polydectian Club '3'l: Correspondence Courtship '37: Treasurer, Masks and Wigs '38g The Thirteenth Day '38. BERNICE WESTMORELAND Bernice, although with us only this year, has brought us good cheer. She's a good-natured classmate, teammate and friend. She's a guard on our Basketball Team '38. ROBERT BOYD WILDS Don't let the names fool you. Bobby is as Sfentle as a deer. As a per- fect Hentleman he can't be sur- passed. He was in the Bon Ami '36C Open Forum '37g Key Club '37, '38. OLENE FRANCES WOODRUFF OIEHS, having made A's all through high school, has, also, been in the Oven Forum '3'7: Beta Club '37, '38, Reporter '38: Secretary, F. H. A.

N I O R Page Twenty-yive ADDIE KATHERINE STOVALL Although this is Katherine's first year with us, she has made a name for herself both in school and in basketball. F. H. A. Club '38g Basketball '38g Masks and Wigs '38. FRANKLIN WEST TROUP Whenever you see a group of girls standing around, it's either a sew- ing circle or just Frank. Fifty Million Frenchmen can't be wrong. Open Forum '37: Assistant Grand- master, Lambda Pi Sigma '36-'38, Key Club '37, '3S: Correspondence Courtship '37g Best Looking Boy, Junior Class '37: Historian, GOLD- EN MEMORIES '38.

H. A. '3S: Citizenship Honor '38, Best All-Round Girl '38: Editor, GOLDEN MEMORIES '38g The Thirteenth Day '38. JAMES BUFORD WHITMIRE It's a shame to have a brilliant brain checked by a lazy spirit. J. B. was in the Sine Nomine '36: and on the Football Squad '36. We think he could make straight A if he tried. PAUL EUGENE WILSON Allah, Allah, yes, loyal subjects, we present his royal majesty, the Kiniz. He not only makes a nice picture, but also draws one. Qui? Qui? '36: Lambda Pi Sigma '26-'38: Polydectian Club '37g Key Club 'SSZ Masks and Wigs '38g Senior High Kinq '38: Artist, GOLDEN MEMORIES '38, The Thirteenth Day '38. MARBREY PAYNE YNO PICTUREJ Marbrey is the only Payne that we would like to have. We are as wrapped up in her as she is in Ma- con. Having been here only one semester, she has our friendship and admiration and a place in Masks and Wigs.

CLAS S GEM Destiny has sounded the parting song, And our school days have fled, Though we have loved them for long They are to us now dead. But hits of them will live for aye In our magic cloud of memory, Memories of our laughs and sighs And plans of our clestinies. These walls which have echoed our gaiety. Students who proved friend or foe, Teachers who taught us with loyalty, Will be remembered wherever we go. But our lives are not finished yet, Our future has just begun, So let us some memories forget And let ambition rise with the sun. Let us malce our future life A credit to our dear schoolg Be ever heedful of sorrow and strife, Let kindness be our tool. When our sun sets in the western sky May we our best have given, When our soul from earth shall fly May we be rewarded in heaven. -VIRGINIA MAE CANTERBURY, Poet Page Twenty-seven
