He is just the type of a rare, good sport who is always ready to lend a helping hand wherever it may be needed. GEORGE HERBERT BURBAGE “June” Tar Heel Club; Cotillion Club. “Happiness is cheaper than worry; why pay the higher price?” If we don ' t some day read that Burbage has discovered what will happen when the irre¬ sistible force strikes the immovable object or has devised a means of communication with the planets or something equally astounding, we are going to be greatly disappointed, because during his one year at Blue Ridge we have seen enough of him to know that he is greatly inter¬ ested in science and we feel that if he makes it his life work he will do wonders. HENRY BUCK BURROUGHS “Hank” Palmetto Club. ’26. ’27, ' 28. Vice-Presi¬ dent, ’27; Secretary Fourth Form, ' 26; Prefect Board, ’27, ’28; GADAWHEE Staff, ’27. ' 28, Business Manager, ’28; Vice-President Senior Class; President Student Body; President Wil¬ son Literary Society, ' 28; Cotillion Club Com¬ mittee, ’28. “A loyal, just and upright gentleman.” Even if Henry is from Conway, we won’t hold that against him because that is about the only thing that we can find the matter with him. He is a hard worker and a good student. We feel sure that Henry will be an honor to whatever calling he may have in life. ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft .ft. ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft • ft • ft ft ft! ft-ft-ft-ft-ft-ft- fy • ft • ft • ft - ft - ft • ft • ft -ift-ft-ft.Fti-Fy.Fy ft • ft | w
