ADELE WAYN E SMITH The undying gratitude of the Wake Staff is due this commercial student who has done such a su- perb job as chief typist for the yearbook. We'll recommend Pud- din' not only as a good secretary but as an all-round girl whose genial and quiet manner is re- freshing. LOIS RUTH SMITH By virtue of her contributions to the Glee Club, the Assembly Committee, the Wake, and the Honor Society, Lois Ruth might be classed as one of our busiest and most competent seniors. ln the fall she'll enroll in the Women's College of the Univer- sity of North Carolina. BARBARA LEE SNAVELY Midshipmen and Academy hops have consumed so much of the time of blonde Bobbie, the little girl with the big pompadour, that school to her has been only a necessary evil. She's now headed toward the study of dress-design- ing. J EAN ETTE LOU ISE STALLI NGS In Jeanette the Class of '45 has still another who is deter- mined to become a secretary. The work which she has done for the Guidance Department and the Wake Staff this year indicates that she has real skill in this field. SARAH ANN STALLINGS The Tally-Ho, the Assembly Committee, and the Social Com- mittee are iust three of the activ- ities which have benefited from the talent of Smoky, whose con- tribution was sufficient to merit the A during her junior year. She has been an active sports- woman and hopes to be a doctor. 28 HERMAN BUCKNER SMITH Quiet and reserved Smitty has made himself useful around AHS by serving on the Traffic Squad this year. A sense of fair play, developed by an interest in sports, has made him a great friend here. It will undoubtedly be a big help in his engineering career. MARIE J ENNY SMITH Smitty, a general course stu- dent, lists as her favorite ac- tivities movies, good books, and sports. Her intense interest in the latter will prompt her to pre- pare for teaching physical educa- tion after she is graduated from AHS. ROSE ANN SPRINGFIELD Rosie's chief aim in life is hav- ing fun, and she accomplishes it by reading, writing, collecting photos, and going to the movies. After finishing her course in AHS she hopes to attend a business college. MARY LOU STALLINGS ln AHS fun-loving Pudge has chosen the Library Council and the Glee Club as her favorite ex- tra-curricular activities and sci- ence as her favorite subject. Her choice for the future is the nurs- ing profession. il' CHARLES JOSEPH STERLING We've already hung up a ser- vice star for Buckie, who is now serving with Uncle Sam's fleet. That means that we've already had time to miss his enthusiasm for out-door sports, his service on the Traffic Squad, and his quiet and thoughtul manner.

ROBERT STEPHEN SHERBERT Step right this way for a big juicy steak, gang! Tall and lanky Mase is going to be a good butcher. lf this rationing con- tinues, the popularity which he has enjoyed in AHS is going to increase immeasurably. MARY CLAIRE SHORTT Mert, a blonde basketball play- er, has belied her name by grow- ing tall. Her hopes for the future paradoxically suggest both ambi- tion and lack of it, for she wants either to marry a rich man or to find an easy secretarial job. if FRANK ALLEN sw: Frank's cheerful grin has al- ways boosted our morale during our years at AHS. He is an en- thuisast for sports and dancing and, like most of us, detests homework. A vagabond at heart, he hopes to see the world as a naval officer. X Y ,W - l' Jouli Enwmzo srrss, Jn. All sports have interested John- ny, who will strike out after grad- uation to join the Merchant Ma- rine, We'll remember him not only for his work on the Traffic Squad and in the Stunt Night per- formance, but also for that often- displayed willingness to help oth- ers. NANCY ANNE SLAVEN Not only the A but the bar under it attests the great service Nancy has rendered to her school. Her selection as editor of this year's Tally-Ho, a task at which she has worked diligently and faithfully, culminated three years of reporting. ln college she'll .study to be a naturalist. MARY NELL SHORT College-bound Shorty, who has made many friends during her four years at AHS, is a versatile gal with a flair for fun. Playing the piano, participating in sports, and dancing are her primary so- cial activities, while math and science rate scholastically. JOAN MARIE SINGLEY Jo, whose quiet exterior con- ceals the fact that she is full of the old nick , is another senior of lofty ambition, for she wants to become an air hostess. She has helped with the photography of the Wake this year and has spent her spare moments on the ice developing further an already good skating technique. EVELYN A. M. SITES Although she is a home eco- nomics major, Sis lists food as her chief aversion. Dancing, bowling, in fact all sports have been her foremost interest during her stay in AHS. Just what she'll be do- ing in the future even she does not know. NANCY ANN SLAMA Nancy, a witty and vigorous individual herself, dislikes quiet people. Intramural sports, the Assembly and Social Committees, and the Wake have kept her oc- cupied during her four years in AHS. MARY GERTRUDE ANN SMALL Tall, dark Gertie is more than iust another senior to those who know her. She is an avid swimmer, an accomplished seamstress, and a potential interior decorator. 27

BETTY LEE STEVENS Food, fun, and frolic are the sovereigns in the life of com- panionable Betty, who has proc-- ticed her stenographic knowledge by typing for the Wake this year. After attending business college, she'II take up her career as c secretary. TH ELMA LOUISE STEVENS Movies and music, sports and traveling-these are the things Boots enjoys. She's particularly interested in' typing, and after graduation she'd like to join the Waves. RICHARD LEE STILL As treasurer of the Student Government, a member of the As- sembly and Social Committees, the Traffic Squad, the Library Coun- cil, and the Varsity Soccer Team, Mystery Man has displayed a calibre few of us could match. Maybe it's because we share with him a distaste for know-it-aIIs , rainy Fridays, and early rising that we cherish his acquaintance. Hawk RICHA D DAVID STINCHCOMB Sports and girls are tied for first place as the cardinal interests of jovial Richard. He has ma- jored in shop and is letting the Draft Board decide his future. SUSANNE STOKES Her friendly exuberance and charming wit have made new- comer Sue readily welcomed in AHS. In her one year here she has contributed much as a mem- ber of the literary staff of the Wake and of the National Honor Society. Friends find her full of fun and always on-the-go. GEORGE FRAN KLIN STEVENS This versatile senior would need no other claim to fame than his loyal work as assistant editor of the Wake, but he has added the Traffic Squad, Social Club, and Art Service to insure his im- mortality in AHS. West Point is his goal, and we're wishing suc- cess to a fellow we find plenty all right. HALLAM ALEXIS STEWARD Lex, who has pursued the gen- eral course in AHS, will don a Navy uniform after graduation. He's ta born mixer, ,partial to short girls and good music and allergic to homework. RAYMOND G. STINCHCOMB lf you are a good-looking girl with brains , you can be on Ray's list, for those are the requisites he must have in his feminine friends. Engines and airplanes are a delight to this mechanically minded student who is now serving in the AAF. fl, M vERNoN B. s'riNci-:coma JR. An enthusiastic interest in music plus persevering practice on his trumpet have combined to make Vernon an asset to the Or- chestra and Glee Club. Not the least of his virtues has been his never-failing reliability. MARY ELLEN STU BBS Although indifferent to the scholastic and social offerings of AHS, Mary Ellen has two activ- ities which she enjoys tremendous- ly-dancing and eating. She wants to find a job in business. 29
