mnwmurmrmurmmmmIarmmnglf- I ,' I'IIHIHHHIIHIIff II During the spring quarter we were joined by Emma Easley, Georgia Daniels, Macedonia Lee, Gertrude Barker, Mary J . Scott, Blanche Thomp- son, and Eva Franklin from the Industrial High School; Josie Smith, Tom- mie Smith, Easter Steele, Harry Holt, Alma Jones, Maggie Young, and tMrSJ Lottie B. Walters from our own high school. With this increase we were able to push with greater speed toward our goal. and became more interested and ce-operative with the school in all activities. Thus ended our career as Freshmen. The next year found us back with new determination and realizing more fully the true meaning of our ensign. Many did not return. but were replaced by others who quickly caught the spirit. These were: Horace Powell, Howard Powell, W. H. Hazely. Sallie Browu, Ruth Peters, Adeline Campbell, Emma Jean Lipscomb, Alma Price, Lucile Brooks, Bertha Har- ris, Hazel Shipman, Hattie Wright, Frank Lewis and tMrsJ Elizabeth Oliver. We were reorganized with Horace Powell, president; Maxine Johnson, secretary and Woodson Player, Treasurer. Without their untiring efforts ' our clase would have been at a loss, butiwe overcame almoet every obstacle and boasted of holding many positions on the campus. We were joined during the winter quarter by Victoria Adams, Minnie Mason. Arlene Jones, Willie F. Backstrom, J ulia Jenkins, and John V. Stur-v. divant. The pilgrim is almost at an end. The goal that we sought is in view, yet we feel that whatever we have, or ever will accomplish we owe it to our dear ttAlma Mater. NINETEEN H UNDRED T PV ENTY -NIN E
