Eenest Key Epps, Kingstree, S. C. His heart as far from fraud As Heaven from Earth. Monthly Orator, Corresponding Secretary, Treas- urer; President Calhoun Literary Society; Class Basketball Team, ' 09- ' lo. Journal Staff, ' 09- ' 10, Art Editor the Bohemian, ' io- ' ii. Class Poet. Ham is the pianist of the class, playing faith- fully at Chapel exercises and Y. M. C. A. meetings. He, while a Freshman, took music at Converse, but becoming too bashful to face the music, gave up that course. Besides, knowing that he was a musi- cian, the Faculty organized as an encoring club for his special benefit which did not suit Ham in the least. Lucius Gaston Gage, Chester, S. C. All things come to him n ' ho waits. Loosh goes along in the same old way, never worries and takes all things easy. He gets there all the same you may be sure. In addition to his regular work and his Senior dignity Loosh has taken on two more great responsibilities, viz: the management of Gage ' s up-to-date Pressing Club and the supervision of his little brother George. Loosh has done justice to these tasks as well as to his other duties. 29

Speaker on Sophomore Exhibition; Junior Debater. Class Basketball Team, ' 09- ' lo. The better one knows Biley the more he likes him. His one failing is his bashfulness. He blushes on any and all occasions — doesn ' t mean any harm by it. but cannot help it. It is said that he starts to blushing when he is yet three blocks away from Converse College, as he, with others, goes for a promenade. Also that he fears to talk with the girl of his choice only less than he hates for her to be out of his sight. Charles Edward DuPont, Spartanburg, S. C. Bald-headed and redder Than a windy morn. President Freshman Class. Third Censor, Corre- sponding Secretary, Recording Secretary, First Critic, Vice-President and President of the Pres- ton Literary Society. Class Basketball Team, ' 07-08.

He amuses himself pulhng the bo3 s ' ears and once or twice was about to pull Rembert ' s. Bill says he never has time to study; goes to Whittington ' s corner in the afternoon, Jit. ' show at night and holds office hours during Chapel exercises in the mornings. But Bill will get over these things for he is known to have preached two sermons of one hour each in one Sunday. 28

Let me introduce you to Kernel Henry Grady Hardin from Clover, Batesburg, Rock Hill, and elsewhere. He is the real Henry Grady of the Class, too — a born orator. Whenever his class- mates needed an eloquent speech made on any occa- sion, they invariably called on Kernel. He was the third Hardin to go to glory at the State Oratori- cal Contest, and even to accomplish such a feat as that he didn ' t find hard. The South Carolina Conference has waiting for him a circuit, to whose ro- mantic service he intends to report as soon as he can secure the proper credentials. By 1920, if he is not branded one of the big guns, his class will sue the Church for damages. Herbert Hucks, Stalvey, S. C. All is not gold that glitters.

Hucks is from Horry County, just what part of the sticks we have so far been unable to find out. But since coming to college he has learned the names of some of the principal towns in his county. His specialty in school is writing stories, essays, just anything so long as the Journal Staff will take it. At home, he is a fisherman, having caught by him- self, to hear him tell it, six hundred and seventy- nine two-pounders in an hour and three quarters. 30
