Jimmy reminds us all of an electric current. No, he is not as shocking as that may sound — but he has the quiet power and force. He doesn ' t shine himself, but my what he can start! Jimmy is one of the finest foundations of our class — perfectly immovable. He must have a keen sense of humor, for ' tis remembered that he once giggled out loud at the Ancient Mariner.” VIVIAN VIRGINIA VIOLA Entered ' 27; Glee Club ' 27; Commercial Club ' 27; Athletic Association ' 27; Can- non Literary Society ' 27. V. V. V. A whole string of V’s come dancing down the road, and in a minute you ' ll see Virginia evolve from the tangle. — A girl like you imagine the Queen of Sheba was — quiet and brainy she is, dis- approving the old theory, because beauty and brains meet here. A private secretary she will probably make— one that any man will be proud of. 28

She ' s a good student, and a loyal and sincere friend. She’s quiet and mod- est, and attends to her own business and allows others the same privilege. Y r es, she believes in fun when there’s a time for it. Allie Mae has a talent for music. We won’t be surprised when we hear of her success.

Blanch was voted our most popular girl, and I’ll say she is, becauses he is the only girl is our Senior Class who has to keep a date calendar. She’s a star too, ana some day she ' ll be the rival of Cor- rine Griffith, and maybe she’ll play with Richard Dix. Peppy? Attractive? Good dancer? Booster? — Yes, all this, and pret- ty too.

Athletic? Well, I reck- on! Just name the sport and he goes to reeling off a lot of Spalding. He reads books galore, including Blackstone. The fact of the matter is, he is liable to clear up a good many scandals in the future. 29
