ECHO PAGE 10 YEAR 1929 SENIOR CLASS POEM The curtain closes on four years well spent All mingled with our cares, joys, and regrets, And we in pausing, rent the veil that bars our vision of the past And thus called back, we live again each era past. Act One—from out dark halls of memory we call Days of childish joys and doubts Where upperclassmen were wise sages—learned and skilled. Just one command, our worlds turned as they willed; All life seemed one wide, wandering way Where one could work, be sad, be gay. Act Two—then finds us one year older and more wise. We have more zest to gain the upward flight; We linger not so long by wayside flowers, And realize time passes on unheeded with most precious hours. Thus with high hopes of greater things We take just one step further up Life’s way. And the actors of Act Three appear. We find those treasured hopes for which we strive draw near— One mile ahead there’s all we hoped to gain Where we—king of our destinies—might reign. So wisely do we pass along this road of Life With hopes to be a figure in its strife. Act Four—holds all the glory of a rising sun. We see our destination ’ere it’s won, And here we leave the foot-marked path wherein four years have passed, And turn to seek a broader, newer field—more vast. Courageously we take from our Fate’s hands—the hate—the love—the joy and the despair— The good—the bad—all this Life’s share, And with a vauntless courage take our lives To carry on to sightless heights or sink downtrodden, hopeless to the mire. And so the closing curtain leaves us there. No more is seen upon this stage; Henceforth, each one presents alone his play— It may be comedy—It may be cold, dark tragedy Who shall say? —Agnes Matins.

While Evelyn does not devote much time to athletics, she is, nevertheless, a popular stu¬ dent. She is rather quiet, but this trait seems to have won for her a place in the heart of all her associates. LOTTIE ANDERSON Entered ’25 : Science Course; President of Home Room ’2G-’27 ; Bank Cashier ’25- 26 ; Home Economics Secretary ’27-’28 ; Baseball ' 26-’27 ; Basketball ’28-’29 ; Vice-President Home Room ’27-’28 ; Cheerio Club ’28-’29 ; Athletic Association ’2G-’29 ; Letter Club ’28-’29. Lottie is always happy and has a smile for everybody and a way that has won for her many friends. Lottie’s he ' ght and good goal¬ shooting will be missed on the basketball court next year. Although her many outside admir¬ ers think her rather quiet, her close friends can assure her worth. ZELMA AYRES Entered ’25 ; Home Economics Course; Girl Reserves ’25-’29 ; Music ’28-’29 ; Dramatic ’29 ; Class Basketball ’25-’27 ; Varsity Basket Ball ’28-’29 ; President Girl Reserves ’26-’27 ; Ses- s on Room Chairman ’25-’26 ; Secretary Home Room ’28 ; Big Sister ’28-’29 ; Bank Cashier ’25-’2G ; Class Play ’28 ; Home Economics Club ’26-’28. “Divinely Tall and Divinely Fair.” “Peaches” is an attractive girl well worth knowing. She has a train of admirers that most girls envy. Nevertheless “Peaches” is good in her work and we are proud of her ability to play basketball. N. C. C. W. will be proud to have a girl like her. JAMES BARGER Entered ’24 ; General Course : Athletic Asso¬ ciation ’24-’28 ; Vice President Home Room ’24. “Jim” is a general favorite with all the girls and boys who know him because of his gener¬ ous supply of jokes. He is a good sport and is always ready to join in anything that’s started. Here’s to you, “Jim” ! RACHEL BARNES Entered ’23 ; Latin Course ; Girl Reserves ’23- 24 ; Athletic Association ’24-’25 ; Rachel is a quiet, studious girl whom no one ever accused of flirting. Her winning smile and gentle ways have won her many friends, and her studious mind has won recognition from the faculty. In the future we expect to hear of your having done great things, Rachel. PAGE 14 ECHO YEAR 1929 ELIZABETH BELT Entered ’25 ; General Course; Girl Reserves ’2G-’29 ; President Junior Dramatic Club ’26- ’27 ; Secretary Girl Reserves ’26-’27 ; President Home Room ’26-’27 ; Big: Sister ’29 ; President Monogram Club ’28-’29 ; President Mask and Wig: Club ’28-’2 9 ; Manager Varsity Basketball Team ’28-’29 ; Member Tumbling Club ’27-’29 ; Member Girl’s League ’28-’29 ; Member cast “Only Me” ; Student Council ’28-’29 ; Chairman Traffic Comm. ’28-’29 ; Chairman Constitution¬ al recommendations Comm.; Student Council. From the success that “Lib” has made dur¬ ing her four years in Boyden High School, vve can readily predict a colorful future. Eliza¬ beth is a very winsome girl and has a way of making hosts of friends anywhere she goes. “Lib” is an allround good sport and Boyden Hi will miss her helpful qualities. MILDRED ROSALIE BELT Entered ’25 ; General Course; Class Basket Ball ' 26-’27-’28 ; Volley Ball ’26-’27 ; Dramatic Club ’26-’29 ; Athletic Club ’26-’28 ; Girl Re¬ serves ’25-’28 ; Field Day Events ’27-’28 ; Var- isty Hockey ’28 ; Cheerio Club ’29 ; Big Sister ’28-’29 : Spanish Club, Chairman ’28, President ’29 : Office Work ’29 ; Girl’s League ’29 ; Mono¬ gram Club ’29 ; Home Room Cashier ’26 ; Girl’s Council ’27. Steady, dependable, and true is Mildred. If you want something done, and done well, the best policy is to go to her, for she never does her work half way. Her good nature and exceptionally agreeable personality have won for her a place in all our hearts. ROBERT LINN BERNHARDT, JR. Entered ’25 ; Latin Course; Athletic Asso¬ ciation ’26 ; Echo Reporter ’26 ; Hi-Y ’27-’28-’29 ; Junior Dramatic Club ’27 ; Debating Club ’27- ’28-’29 : Candidate Varsity Basketball ’27 ; Senior Dramatic Club ’28-’29 ; Midget Basket Ball ’28-’29; Glee Club ’28-’29 ; Vice-President Home Room ’29; Poetry Club. “Bob’’ is one of our most popular boys, not only with the boys and girls, but also with the faculty. “Bob” is a sincere fellow and is always willing to aid his comrades. It can be said that his purpose in life is high, and his determination great. Success to you “Bob”, in all you do. RALPH BRIDGES Entered ’25 ; Latin Course; French Club ' 28 Hi-Y ’29 ; Athletic Association ' 27-’29 ; Senior Dramatic Club ’29 ; Program Chairman ’27- ’29 : Chairman History Class ' 29. Ralph is one of our smartest students when it comes to working Math—he just knows all about it. We hope he will be able to publish a new Math Book for Boyden High students to struggle with. Don’t make it too hard! CATHERINE BROWN Entered ’25; Science Couse: Home Econo¬ mics ’27-’28; Art Club ’28-’29-President; Ju¬ nior Science Club ’29 ; Home Room Chairman ’29; Library Work ’27-’28 ; Office Work ’29; Big Sister ’28-’29; Girl’s League ' 29. “You can live without kno wledge. You can live without books, But civilized men cannot live without cooks.” Catherine is certainly one of our most digni¬ fied seniors. She is tall and stately. When there is work to be done just call on Catherine and she will always lend a willing and help¬ ful hand. YEAR 1929 ECUO PAGE 15 MARY E. BROWN Entered ’25 ; Home Economics Course; Freshman and Sophomore Basket Ball : Girl Reserves ’24-’29 ; Home Economics Club ’27- 29 ; French Club ’28. Mary E. has a secret of getting friends and keeping them, which we would all like to know. She is a happy-go-lucky girl, always ready for fun. We can’t picture Mary Eliza¬ beth without Hubert. Nevertheless, she has a good record in Boyden High. We will miss her greatly. STAHLEY BROWN Entered ’24 ; General Course: Football ’28 ; Athletic Captain ’29 ; Basketball ’27-’28 ; Alt. Captain ' 29 ; Baseball ’27-’28, Captain ’29 ; Let¬ ter Club; Sport editor Annual; Senior Class Treasurer ; Banker 218 ; Athletic Manager ; Sen¬ ior Rotary representative. Stahley is equally at home, whether, behind the line, on the hardwood, or at shortstop. Though he is probably the most outstanding athlete in the school, his honors are not limit¬ ed to that field. BETSY BURT Entered 1925 ; Latin Course; Girl Reserves ’25-’29 ; Class Basketball ’29 ; Hockey Team ’26-’27 ; Student Council Representative ’28-’29 ; French Club ’28-’29 ; Glee Club ’28-’29 ; Camp Fire Girls ’27-’29 : Girl’s League ’28-’29 ; Ath¬ letic Association ; Music Club ’28- ' 29 ; Chairman Citizenship Committee ’27-’28; Cheerio Club ’28-’29 ; Tennis ’29. “Do you not know you are so fair. Brighter than springtime in the air’’. Betsy, “cute’’ and “petite”, has blue eyes, fair rosy complexion, and brown hair. Pos¬ sessed with a cheerful disposition, and an ability far above the average. She will suc¬ ceed in any phase of work that she untertakes. BILLY BUSBY Entered ’25; Latin Course; National Honor Society; Assistant Circulation Manager ’27; Associate Editor ’28 ; Manager Editor ’28-29 ; Business Manager Annual ’29 ; Student Coun¬ cil ’28-’29 ; Class Lawyer ’29 : Senior Rotary Representative ’29 ; Mask and Wig Club ’28-’29 ; Marshal ’28 ; Athletic Association ’25-’28 ; Stunt Manager Senior Carnival ’29 ; Debating Society ’27-’28 ; Hi-Y 29 ; Junior Class Play ’27 ; Mid¬ get Football ’28 ; Midget Basketball ’27-’29 ; Midget Baseball ’28 (Manager); Varsity Base¬ ball ’29 ; Golf Team ’29 ; Hardest Worker ’29 ; Smartest ’29. “A mixture of gaiety and seriousness.” Billy is one of the hardest workers of our class—he not only works but has plenty of time for fun. We will miss you, Billy, but we know that you have a bright and happy fu¬ ture before you. ISABEL CAMP Entered ’25; Latin Course; Big Sister ’28-’29 ; Girl Reserves ’26-’29, President ’27-’28 ; Chair¬ man of Ways and Means Committee ’28-’29, Secretary ’27-’2S ; Debating Club ’27-’29, Vice- President ’28 ; Chairman Membership Commit¬ tee ’28 ; Triangular Debate ’28 ; Athletic Asso¬ ciation ’28 ; Student Council ’28-’29 ; Chairman of Citizenship committee ’28-’29 ; Dramatic Club ’28-’29 ; Cast Senior Play “Kempy.” “Issy” has a charming way which has won for her many friends. She always has a smile for everyone—and especially Max. We will miss you and your cute ways of vamping the “shieks”, but we predict for you a happy and successful future. v PAGE 16 ECHO YEAR 1929 NORMAN CHURCH Entered ’27 ; General Course; Hi-Y ’27-’29 ; Golf Team ’27-’28 ; Glee Club ’27-’28 ; Drama¬ tic Club ’28-’29 ; Advertising Manager. “Only Me” ; Advertising Manager, “Contest Plays” ; Cast “Economical Boomerang” ; Radio Club ’27- ' 28, Treasurer ' 27 ; Home Room Vice-Presi¬ dent ' 28, Secretary ’27 ; Class Basket Ball ' 29 ; Athletic Assoc ation ’28-’29 ; Assistant Libra¬ rian ’28-’29 ; Cheerio Club ’29 ; Spanish Club ’27-’28 ; Box Office Manager, “Gypsy Rover” Senior Play ’29 ; Junior Class Cheer Leader ’27-’28 ; Treasurer Glee Club ’27. Gangway! Here comes a very care-free disposition, surrounded by a popular human being. He has his worries, as we all do, but he doesn ' t let the outside world know about them. Norman is one of the sheiks of the senior class. He doesn’t seem to study, but he passes his work—we suppose he’s a genius. Success and happiness are sure to be in store for him. MARGIE CLODFELTER Entered ’24 ; Home Economics Course ; Home Economics Club ’28-’29. “Love, Sweetness, Goodness in her person shine.” Margie’s sweet personality and quiet na¬ ture have won for her many friends. She is a true blue girl and never forgets, as many of us do, and becomes too gay or reckless ; she can be depended upon. We feel quite sure that she will make a success in life. WILLIAM McCUNE COLE Entered ’25; Latin Course; Hi-Y Club ’27- ’29 ; Midget Football ’27-’28 ; Debating Club ’27-’29 ; Triangular Debating Team ’29 ; Secre¬ tary Hi-Y ’27-’28 ; Dramatic Club ’28-’29 ; Glee Club ’27-’28 ; Poetry Club ’29 ; In Cast of “Only Me”, and “The Crows Nest”. Folk s, you are now looking at the Dramatic talent of our school. Bill has figured in sev¬ eral plays that has been given in B. H. S. Besides having dramatic ability, he is an ora¬ tor. We feel sure that wherever Bill goes he will be a success. MARGARET COLEY Entered ’25 ; Latin Course ; Home Economics Club ’26-’27 ; Civic Club ’26 ; Dramatic Club ’26 ; Basket Ball ’26-’27 ; Athletic Association ’26-’27-’28 ; Treasurer of Home Room ' 29 ; Nurses’ Club Treasurer ’29 ; Glee Club ’28-’29 ; Tennis ’29 ; Girl’s League ’29 ; Girl Reserves ’26-’27-’28 ; Operetta “Up In The Air” ’29. “She’s all that fancy paints her, She’s lovely, she’s divine.” Margaret has a rare beauty that all the girls envy. She is very popular, both in her studies and with the boys. We predict a bright future for her with many suitors strewn along the way. KATHRYN COOK Entered ’25 ; Latin Course; Girl Reserves ’25-’29 ; Dramatic Club ’25-’27 ; Secretary and Treasurer Girl Reserves ’26-’29 ; Debating Club ’27-’29 ; Alternate debating team ’27-’29 ; Big Sister ’28-’29 ; Student Council ’28-’29 ; Office ’28-’29 ; Athletic Association ’25-’28 ; Chairman Home Room Program Committee ’26-’27 ; Girl’s League ’28-’29. “Eva,” as her friends call her, is one of the hardest working students in the school. Don’t get the idea she is a bookworm though, be¬ cause she isn’t. She isn’t working on studies— she is out helping people; ask Miss Norman if you don’t believe this. Kathryn has worked hard and faithfully in the office. Don’t for¬ get Kathryn is one of the best debators in the class too. -t ECHO YEAR 1929 PAGE 17 WALTER M. COOK, JR. Entered ’24 ; Latin Course ; Hi-Y ' 26-’29 ; De¬ bating Club ’28-’29 ; Dramatic Club ’28-’29 ; Student Council ' 27-’28 ; Point System Com¬ mittee ’28-’29 ; Candidate for Track ’28-’29 Operetta “Up In The Air” ’29 ; Athletic Sec¬ retary ’27-’28 ; Glee Club ’27-’29. Hard work does not seem to make “Walt” flinch a bit. He is one of our most indus¬ trious boys, and is an outstanding member of 216. We are sure Walter will make a success of his future undertakings. FRANCES CORNELISON Entered ’25 ; Science Course; Glee Club ’27- 29 ; Music Club ’29 ; Treasurer Home Room ’26 -’27 ; Operetta “Gypsy Rover” ’28. Here is cheerfulness personified ! “Fritz” is a jolly happy-go-lucky-girl and has an un¬ quenchable amount of humor. We hope that her attractive personality will make her as popular through life as it has in high school. CHARLES CROSS Entered 25 ; Latin Course ; Orchestra ’25-’29 ; Hand ’28-’29 ; Cheerio Club ’28-’29 Traffic Comm. ’28-’29. “A Merry One” Within the limit of becoming mirth. Charles is an all-round good sport. His jolly ways have made him a host of friends and we are sure that he will make many more in college. As to the ladies—well, we really couldn’t say, but we notice that he has seemed to enjoy helping a certain blond Sophomore, across the aisles on history class, to find the date of the Civil War. LUCILLE CURLEE Entered ’25; Latin Course; Girl Reserves ' 25- ' 26; Girl’s Council ’25-’26; Vice-President Nurses’ Club ’28-’29. Jolly, a good sport, a good scholar, a popular “filie”—all these things make up only a part of Lucill’s character. Everyone has always liked her good natured and cooperative spirit. J. P. CURLEE Entered ’25; Science Course; Basket Ball Squad ’26-’27-’29 ; Midget Football ’28-’29 ; Base Ball Squad ’27-’28 ; Track Squad ’29. Glee Club ’29 ; Science Club ’29 ; Camera Club ’28 ; Aviation Club ’29 ; Cheerio Club ‘29. Ah ! Here comes the dignity of the sen ' or class. Perhaps so, but that makes him no less f ne as a fellow. He’s an athlete too. Al¬ though he has not made the first teams, he has shown that he is not a quitter. His abili¬ ty to keep trying, his quiet nature, and his sunny disposition have made him a general favorite among his classmates. ECHO PAGE IS YEAR 1929 ARNOLD WILLIAM DALTON Entered ’25 ; Science Course; Radio Club ’27-’29 ; Music Club ’28-’29 ; Aviation Club ’28 -’29. Arnold isn’t a bit snobbish although he does go around with his head in the clouds. He is a hard worker, and what he doesn’t know about Math, isn’t worth knowing. Arnold likes to “putter” around with engines and mechanisms ; he made a generator in chimestry this year. No doubt we have a budding Edison here among us. We wish him success in what¬ ever he undertakes. AGNES ALESA DEAL Entered ’28 ; General Course; Editor of the “Dispatch” ; Thanksgiving Play ’25 ; Captain of “Care Fu Bui Club.” Agnes came to us from Sengdo Foreign School, Korea, just last term, but she immed¬ iately won the admiration of all her classmates for her ability to be exempt on all of her subjects. Agnes is rather quiet and studious, but once you know her, you find her to be a thoroughly lovable girl. B. H. S. wishes her the best of luck and regrets that it did not know her sooner. SARA DORSETT Entered ’28 ; Latin Course; Assembly Com¬ mittee ’28-’29 ; President Latin Club ’28-’29 ; Dramatic Club ’28-’29. Girl Reserves ’28-’29 ; Secretary Home Room ’28-’29. “Feminism is a virtue—rare and divine”. Sara is popular with everyone especially the boys, who haven’t a chance when she raises her baby eyes with a look that seems to say, “O, I think you’re wonderful !” Sara though “baby faced”, certainly isn ' t dumb as the solid “E’s” on her report card can testify. CARROLL EARNHARDT Entered ’25 ; Science Course; Basket Ball ’28-’29 ; S’thlete Club ’29 ; Home Room Chair¬ man ’28 ; Radio Club ’27. “None but himself can be his parallel.” “Cal”, as some call him, is termed by some of his teachers as being lazy and talkative ; but in spite of this, he has been a valuable member of the basket-ball squad for the past few years, and it is certain that his wise jokes and ability to make his class laugh will be sincerely missed next year. FREEDA EDMUNDSON Entered ’24 ; Home Economics Course; Big Sister ’28-’29 ; Novelty Art Club ’28. “Hang sorrow ; Care killed a cat.” Freeda although voted the laziest member of the sen¬ ior class is not failing anything. For her never ending plan of jokes, she is admired by many. We know she will be successful in whatever she attempts to do. YEAR 1929 ECHO PAGE 19 DOROTHY ENNIS Entered ’25: Latin Course: Girl Reserves ’25-’29, Secretary ' 27; Program Committee ' 2G-’27.

She has a certain individuality and ability to make friends easily. She has mastered the art of stage make-up hence she is invaluable to our dramatic club. A happy future is certainly in store for her. ELIZABETH FEAMSTER Entered ’25: Latin Course: Girl Reserves ’25-’29 : Hockey ' 27 : Class Basket Ball ’28- ' 29 ; Music Club ’28-’29 : French Club ' 28- ' 29, Vice- President ’29 : Volley Ball ’26 : Girls’ Camp Fire ’27-’29 : Field Dav Events ’25-’29 : Girl ' s League ’28-’29 : Home Room Chairman ’2G- ' 27 ; Athletic Associat ' on ’25-’29 ; Dramatic Club ’28-’29 ; Cheerio Club ’28- ' 29 ; Tennis ’29. Lib” has rare qualities. She can always he chaining. Everyone at Boyden H : gh likes her especially Betsy. Her weakest point is “giggling”, but we can forgive her for that. We know her road will be an easy one. ROYDEN FEAMSTER Entered ’24: Sc ' ence Course: Hi-Y Club ’24-’29. In this lad we find a combination of quali¬ ties seldom possessed by an individual. He is a serious worker, and above all a genuine friend. If the past and present are any indi¬ cations of the future, his success is assured. We are proud to call him our friend! VIRGINIA FOIL Entered ’24 : General Course: Girl Reserves ’24-’28, Vice-President ' 24-21 : Monogram Club ’21-”29: Press Reporter ’28-’29: Tennis Club ’26-’29 : Vars ' ty Basketball ' 27-’29 : Captain ' 28-’29 Varsity Hockey ’26-’2S, Captain ’27-’28 : Track ’24-’29 : French Club ’26- ' 27 : Cheerio Club ' 29: Athletic Association ’24- ' 29, Secre¬ tary ’27-’28 : B : g Sister ’28-’29 ; Secretary Senior Class; Business Manager of “Echo ’28-’29; Editor-in-chief of Annual ’29: Asst. Librarian ’28-’29. “Here’s to the girl that’s strictly in it. Plays well the game and knows the limit. “Ginna” is a sincere and lovable character. She has a magnetism in her way of speaking and acting which has brought to her a large following in the students of Boyden Hi. She is one of our best athletes and a true friend. Her ever ready smile and charming person¬ ality will he greatly missed. ,)EAN FREEMAN Entered ’25; Latin Course; Girl Reserves ’25-’29 ; Big Sister ’28-’29 : Music Club ’28- ' 29 : Athletic Association ’25-’29 ; Girl ' s League ’29 ; Tennis Club ' 29: French Club ’28-’29. Not much talk—a great sweet silence.” If you want a true friend go to Jean. She is a l’eserved girl but you can tell by the num¬ erous E’s” on her report card that she is a good student. Jean surely has a happy and successful future in store for her. ECHO PAGE 20 YEAR 1929 LLOYD GOODMAN Entered 25 ; Latin Course; Hi-Y ’27-’29 ; President Sophomore Hi-Y ’27 : President Stu¬ dent Organization ’28-’29 ; S’thlete Club ’27-’29 ; Varsity Basket Ball ’27-’29, Captain ’28-’29 ; Football ’28-’29 ; Track ’28-’29. “Handsome” is one of the best know figures that walks up and down our halls. Lloyd is so qu ' et and retiring that you would never suspect the many honors he has carried off during his high school career. “Handsome” is not only outstanding as the president of the student body, but also because his four years of varsity football and basketball have made him a familar figure on the gridiron and the hardwood. His outstanding weaknesses are blushing and “Betsy”. HARRY GRAHAM Entered ’25 ; Science Course; Hi-Y ’26-’29 ; Triangular debate Alternate ’28-’29 ; Science Club ’28-’29 ; Debating Club ’29 ; S’thlete Club ’28-’29 ; President Class ’28-’29 ; Bank Cashier ’25-’28 ; Midget Football ’27-’29 ; Midget Bas¬ ketball Captain ’28 ; Varsity Basketball ’27-’29 ; Baseball ’27-’29 : Chief Marshal ’28 ; Class Cheer Leader ’27-’28. “Rooky”—Before our eyes we see one of the most handsome of all “Pookies”. He is one of our best athletes ijn midget football and in varsity basket-ball. He is also president of our senior class. Fannie is mighty proud of OUR boy. in fact we are all proud of him for he is a friend to all. HAZELINE GRUBB Entered ’26 ; Home Economics Course ; Home Economics Club ’26-’27 ; Novelty Art Club ’28 ; Glee Club ’27 ; Music Club ’29 ; Big Sister ’28 -’29. Hazeline, though hardly ever seen talking is a good student and through her quiet nature, has won many friends. She enters heartily in¬ to every thing she undertakes, for which reas¬ ons we feel sure that the problems of life will be no task for her. We hate to see her leave B. H. S. but with her goes our very best wishes. B. W. HALL Entered ’25 ; Science Course; Music Club ’28-’29 ; Aviation Club ’29. Most amative gent’ is B. W.

Her “Mar- mon” hauls a lot of folks to and from school and it will surely be missed. Here’s to you. Bunny ! LUCILLE HENDRIX Entered ’25 ; Home Economics Course ; Home Economics Club ’26-’27 ; Nurses’ Club ’27 ; Vice Chairman Home Room ’27 ; Music Club ’29. Lucille is one of our quiet easy-going seniors.

Ingenious at all times, she is rarely at a loss as what to do in any situation. Our best wishes go with her.

Although he takes the maximum number of steps to complete the minimum amount of work, no one can say he is a s acker; therefore, we shall all go up to receive our diplomas together.

Wc wish you much success ! THELMA LEMLY Entered ’24 ; Home Economics Course ; Home Economics Club ’27-’28. Thelma is one who has never taken life too seriously.

Nature made her what she is and destroyed the pattern—there is no one else like her. Margaret will undoubtedly make a great success of whatever she chooses for her life work, for she is blessed by that subtlety known as personality. YEAR 1929 ■ECHO PAGE 2 5 ELIZABETH EUGENIA LEONARD Entered ’24 : Latin Course; Girl Reserves 24-’26 ; Glee Club ’25-’28 ; Gypsy Rover ’28. Her mother must have taught her that child¬ ren should be seen and not heard.” When you get Elizabeth ' s friendship, though, you are indeed a wealthy person. She is loving and kind ; has high ideals ; and is an extrem¬ ely sympathetic individual. She doesn’t de¬ mand much either- -just a little love.

ROBERT LYERLY Entered ’25 ; Science Course; Science Club ’28-’29 ; Aviation Club ’29. A man of real worth is always appreciated and Robert is. We cannot say, however, that the lad has been a great social hit during his high school days on account of the quietness he has practiced : you never know he is around unless you see him. We do not know what to p r edict for him when he leaves here, but we are sure that he will succeed.

We all wish her success. PHILLIP MILLER Entered ’26 ; Latin Course ; Member of Latin Club 28-’29 ; Member of Music Club ’28-’29 ; President Spanish Club ' 28; Poetry Club ’29.

FANNIE RAINEY Entered ’25 ; Latin Course; Girl Reserves ’25-’29, Treasurer Girl Reserves ’25-’26 ; Liter¬ ary Society ’2G-’27 ; Home Economics Club ’2G-’27 ; French Club ’27-’28 ; Traffic Commit¬ tee ’28-’29 ; Secretary Home Room ’29 ; Presi¬ dent French Club ’28 ; Music Club ’28-’29 : House Keeping Committee ’28-’29. “Gentlemen Prefer Blonds,” at least that is what a certain person in 217 thinks. However, Fannie does not let this interfere with her studies in the least. Besides being an able worker, Fannie is full c.f fun and pep. Here’s hoping that she will make as big a success in life, in future years, as she did in B. H. S. BRUCE RIDENHOUR Entered ' 24 ; General Course: Football ’27 -’28; S’thlete Club ’29; Science ' Club ’29; Hi-Y Club ’2G-’29 ; Athletic Association ’2G- ' 29 ; Glee Club ’28 ; Aviation Club ' 29 ; Class Baseball ’25 ; Class Basket Ball ’29. Bruce wears a Big Block “S” on his sweat¬ er won on the football field fighting for BLACK and GOLD. Although he has not worked very diligently in high school, we be¬ lieve that he will do good work at Carolina next year. Remember the race of the Tor¬ toise and the Hair” Bruce? It’s not the start that counts so much, but the finish. ECHO YEAR 1929 PAGE 31 MILDRED RITCHIE Entered ’24 ; Home Economics Course; Home Economics Club 27-’29. Mildred is another of our quiet members. Although she is not especially fond of studying, she is a conscientious worker and is always ready to do her share. Surely a happy and successful future is n store for her!

Mildred is a person who is always ready to help but never worries whether she will receive credit and praise commensurate with her ef¬ forts. Her four years at Boyden Hi have been full of work of all kinds, with plenty of attention to outside duties as well as to her stud es. She will certainly make a suc¬ cess of what ever she attempts if she works with the same enthusiasm that she has shown here. ALLAN ROUZER Entered ’25; Latin Course; Hi-Y ’27-’29; Athletic Association ’26-’29 ; Band 27-’2S ; Orchestra ’28-’29 ; Track ’28-’29 ; S’thlete Club ’2S- ' 29 ; Senior Representative Student Coun¬ cil ’2K-’29 ; Spanish Club ’28-’29 ; Cheerio Club ' 28-’29. “Behind those eyes lies what?” Allan has h ' s own peculiar way of appearing lazy. He sits lack in his chair apparently dreaming, but there is always something brewing in his mind. We never know what to expect from him next. Besides being one of the best citi¬ zens of the sen or class, Allan is also a good track man and one who will be greatly missed in Boyden High. EM I EL SALEERY Entered ’21; General Course; Football 27 -’28 ; Basket Ball 28; Hi-Y ’26; S’thlete Club ’2N-’29 ; Echo 27-’28 ; Home Room Secretary and Treasurer ’28 ; Banker ’28. Most of Emiel’s interest is centered around athletics, and he seems at his best on the ath¬ letic field where he has made many fine re¬ cords. Emiel is very influential among his friends and a willing helper to all in need.

Through her lovable disposition and good work, she has become a favorite with both students and faculty. You can always depend c.n Nina to help you when you’re in a pinch, with a kind cheerfulness that im¬ mediately makes your work seem half done. SHELTON SHITPING Entered ’25 ; Latin Course; Debating Club ’28 ; Dramatic Club ’29 ; Athletic Association ’29 ; Storekeeper ’29 ; Statistican ’29 ; Athletic Manager 216 ’29 ; Traffic Committee ’29. Shelton is the youngest member of our class and also one of the smallest in statue, how¬ ever he is a splendid student and a valuable worker. His smiling face always greets us at the supply room. We are proud of you, and wish you the greatest success in life, Shelton. A. C.

A. C. is quite well known in Boyden High. He has taken life rather easy in high school, but, nevertheless, he seems to make very good grades. We hope that he will not find college any harder next year. KEARNEY K. SMITH Entered ’25 ; Latin Course; Vice-President Girl Reserves ’26-’27 ; Dramatic Club ’27-’28 ; Debating Club ’27-’28 ; Big Sister ’28-’29; Athletic Association ’28-’29. If you want a big noise see Kearney. How¬ ever, she has lots of sense and is a good stu¬ dent when she closes her mouth and uses her head. Kearney isn’t a bit backward in ex¬ pressing her opinion on any subject whatso¬ ever, and always promises to be quite frank with you about it. However, in spite of her faults which we all share, we like her a lot and wish her an easy path to success.

She is smart in her stud es, yet shed believes in having a good time. She has many admirers, but it always seems a case of ; “He came, He saw ; She conquered.” YEAR 1929 ECHO PAGE 3 3 IIMMIE SPARKS Entered ' 24; General Course; Hi-Y ’25-’26 ; Glee Club ’28, Vice-President Glee Club ’27 ; Athletic Association ’25-’27 ; Cast “Only Me” ’28-’29 ; “Economical Boomerang” ’29 ; Drama¬ tic Club ’28-’29, Secretary of Dramatic Club ’29; Manager Baseball ’28; Manager Football ’29 ; Tennis Team ’27 ; Home Room Secretary and Treasurer ’27 ; Class Basket Ball ’28-’29 ; Librarian’s Assistant ’29 ; Home Room Athle¬ tic Manager ’28-’29 ; Cheerio Club ’29 ; French Club ’28 ; “Gypsy Rover” ’27 ; Orchestra ’24 -’25 ; “Senior Play” ’ 28-’29 ; Home Room Cheer Leader ’27 ; Home Room President ’26 ; Banker of 212, ’27 ; Office work ’29.

SADIE STRANGE Entered ’24 ; General Course; Volley Ball ’27 ; Basket Ball ’28 ; Science Club ’28 ; Home Economics Club ’28-’29. Sadie is the gayest of the gay. If there is any prospect of a good time she is sure to be on hand. Sadie never looks for trouble and seldom finds any. We are sure that she will find happiness throughout life. JOHN THOMAS Entered ’25 ; Science Course; Member of Hi-Y. Aviation Club, Manager Track Team ’29 ; Manager Midget Basket and Football ’2S-’29 ; Midget Basket Ball ’27-’28 ; Home Room President ’29 ; Athletic Association. John is one of the most talkative boys of the senior class and has many humorous and witty tales to tell. He is the kind that does not worry about the duties of life, but sits about as though he enjoyed overcoming ob¬ stacles. John is a great lover of athletics, but a poor lover of the ladies. Some day we hope that he will change. MAX THOMASON Entered ’25 ; Science Course; Home Room Chairman ’25-’26 ; Class Baseball, and Basket Ball ’25-’26 ; Basket Ball, Football. Baseball, Track.

What in the world can it be? Why, it’s one of the star athletes of Boyden Hi ! Max and his Ford are very popular in B. H. S., and are well known by nearly everyone. The basketball team will suffer a great loss when Max leaves us. He also has dramatic ability which was shown in the “Confessional.” WILLIAM I). TALBERT Entered ’24 ; General Course; Hi-Y ’26-’29 ; Science Club ’28-’29 ; Aviation Club ’29 ; Mid¬ get Football ’27 ; Athletic Association ’24-’29 ; Class Basket Ball ' 29. Here’s our puzzle. Bill has been accused of being a victim of ergophobia. This is pro¬ bably an exaggeration, for Bill is always seen with a smile, and every one knows it takes energy to smile. Bill loves a practical joke, but best when it’s on the other fellow. As a woman hater, he is neutral. He is liked and befriended by every one. due to his never fading smile. If it rained characters it would never rain one like Bill.

Junius is a boy on whom one can depend ; he is an earnest hard worker who believes in doing things well. He is a sincere fellow and willing to do anything for his comrades. Truly it can be said that his purpose in life is high and his determination is strong. We hope for him success in all things worth while.

KATE WHITAKER Entered ’25 ; General Course; Home Econo¬ mics Club ’27-’28 ; Girl Reserves ’25 ; Glee Club ’28-’29 ; Science Club. Kate is one of the sweetest girls in the class, but one has to know her to like her because she is reserved. She is always ready to get down to work but her motto is “Work without play makes Jack a dull boy.’’ The world holds great success for Kate in the future. ECHO YEAR 1929 PAGE 3 5 THE HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1929 In order to determine the value of this class as a unit and therefore to determine a very important point in this case, I shall look back into its history as a unit. If we are to believe the historians of the past, all Freshmen classes (except ours) were to a certain extent excited. The main difference between ours and other classes is that we, that is most of us, were more than a certain extent excited. However, hands stop¬ ped shaking and knees stopped knocking when we beheld the familiar faces of two of our former instructors; Miss Reynolds and Miss Peacock. It was, besides, a surprise and a relief to find that two of our former teachers were to continue with us. It must be supposed that they thought that they had failed in grammar school and had come to give us that knowledge that we had not received there. We soon found, however, that this free knowledge was as hard to receive as a C. O. D. shipment of gold bricks. According to the records our freshman year was a hard one; a number of our students were retarded on account of insufficient knowledge (some call it bad luck). However, a very much larger group that was able to give the appearance of knowledge returned to resume what they had learned the year before. This year the interest of the class in outside activities was much more pronounced than it had been in the fresh¬ man year. About this time we began to hear about certain friendly relations between one Lloyd Goodman and another Betsy Burt. Also about this time Bill, better known as Nanny Cole, developed his famed ability to write in several people’s hand writing. Many other things of note happened in our sophomore year, but since these are too numerous to tell here I will pass on to the more interesting and important Junior year. This year was marked by an increased interest in the government of the school and in the many outside activities of the year. While Lloyd Goodman, Staley Brown and others were bringing athletic fame upon themselves and the class, Francis Murdoch and Isabel Camp had entered the ranks of the debaters as members of the first team. This year also saw the victory of the Junior class in the field day meet. In the third floor hall under the leadership of Clellie Lucas, the class held the Junior-Senior Banquet which will go down in the records as one of the most successful social events of the season. In many respects this year was one of the brightest of the four which we have spent here, but in one respect it must be considered the sadest. For early in the fall the man who was admired by all of our class as one of the greatest scholars and educators of the day was taken from us. When he was taken away the class lost not only an emi¬ nent scholar and instructor, but what is more important it lost a faithful and under¬ standing friend. For the rest of the year Mr. Phillips very capabably handled the duties of Mr. John, but no one will ever be able to fdl the place he fdled as a friend. And now I pass to a different group—important and dignified Seniors of 1929. 1 was surprised to find how different the senior class of ’29 was not from the junior class of ’28. It was composed of almost the same old friends, but how busy most of them were. It was their number that filled the casts of the plays and athletic teams. It was from their numbers that leaders in Student Government were taken. I take pride in pointing to the record of that class. I need not tell of the progress that our student ECHO PAGE 36 YEAR 192 9 government has attained under their leadership. There are two who regard this as the result of our own labor and ability; these are Francis Murdoch and Agnes Menius (elected most conceited). The rest of us agree that much of this is due to the capability and leadership of our new principal Mr. Knox and of the faculty who backed him up. Another feature of the graduation will be that the students will wear caps and gowns. This year we plan to have the first graduation exercises put on by the members of the graduating class. Billie Cole and Francis Murdoch have done much as members of the cast of the Crow’s Nest to add to our dramatic glory. This year many Seniors have enjoyed the Dramatic class, studying the art of acting, and of stage work. As this year draws to a close, I feel that I have a right to reflect with pride upon the record of the class of ’29, but most of my attention is drawn to the bright future that I think will come to this class. —Thomas Mashburn. O, Seniors to you now we sing, Your praises ever shall ring, As Freshman, Sophomore and Juniors Our spirits ne’ner did fall — And in the years to come. O, Boyden High to you — Our love and loyalty ive pledge — O blue and white, O blue and white, we sing to you. t ECMO YEAR 1929 PAGE 3 7 SENIOR CLASS STATISTICS When in the course of time it becomes necessary for a senior class to graduate from high school, it must choose from its members one unfortunate individual call the Statis¬ tician”. I say unfortunate because it is really a task to obtain facts about the senior class, since some of its members seem to think that it is none of the statisti cian’s business to get the so called low down” on them. I have found that the senior class is a rather weighty” proposition for it weighs twenty thousand seven hundred twenty-three pounds. It also carries its head high in the clouds, for it stretches upward to the extent of five hundred eighty-five feet. The class is one thousand two hundred sixty-two years old, not counting Ralph Lippard for he does not know his age. As to the hair, brown is the leading color with sixty-two boosters. Seventeen have black, seven blonde, and four red; while Woodrow Myers has transparent hair and Virginia Foil does not know the color of hers. Forty have brown eyes, twenty-seven have blue eyes, seven have green, five gray, six hazel, and Julia McKinney is something of a freak with one blue and one brown. Befitting its dignity, the group is well dressed, the boys having an average of eleven neckties and three suits each and the girls an average of nineteen dresses each. Next comes the foot gear. The girls wear an average of five shoe while the boy r s average number eight (this being raised considerably by the immense foot proportions passed by A. C. Skinner, Arnold Dalton, and Clyde Plyler.) The males claim that they have one hundred and thirty sweethearts or an average of three apiece, but so many claim the same ones that it is impossible to tell how many of the fairer sex they have ensnared. The group seems to have a hearty liking for walking, since forty walk. Flowever, thirty-four ride in cars—among them being Max Thomason and Clifford Hodge in their Jewish Packards”, and none ride the school busses. The street cars seem to be losing popularity for only one rides them regularly. The rest are bums. The majority of the pupils have finished in the specified four years, but some have not. Seventy-two have finished in four years, but the others seemed so reluctant to leave that they remained—three for four and one half years, twelve for five years, and one has even graced us with her presence for six years. I do hereby prophesy a great effect upon the State of North Carolina when this august body is released. —Shelton Shu ping. ECHO PAGE 38 YEAR 1929 SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY Borne upon the wings of a dream, 1 fared forth in a flight of fancy across Elysian fields and over mystic mountains that I might for a moment experience the supreme bliss of a fleeting glimpse down the great corridor of the future twenty-five years hence. What marvelous imagination drew back the curtain of the present, and I was permitted to look upon the careers of my class-mates! Before I attempt to guide you down the dim and distant avenues of the future, and disclose to you these noble careers as revealed in this wonderful dream-journey, I desire that vou give rein to your imagination and wander with me for a moment into the mystic realms where all mortals are occasionally wont to roam. We are now about to experience a lapse of twenty-five years’ time in about as many seconds. My but, haven’t things changed! Who would have dreamed that within twenty-five years we would be conversing with the inhabitants of Mars? Yet, thanks to some of my class-mates that is just what we are doing today. As I looked upon the top of a western mountain where Ralph Lippard, Royden Feam- ster, and Woodrow Myers are conducting their station and astronomical observatory, I learned with astounding admiration that they were communicating freely with Frank Irvin, who now enjoys the unique distinction of being the first inhabitant of the earth to visit Mars. His trip there was a novel one. He had fallen in love with a certain fair damsel who suddenly turned him down. Frank couldn’t bear the thought of this, so he tied a heavy steel ball to his neck and hastened to the river; there to drbwn his sorrow along with himself. But Dame Fortune took a hand in the game; a blazing comet soaring from out of the sky, swept by the earth. The tail of the comet possessed highly magnetic properties which attracted the ball that was tied to Frank’s neck. Conse¬ quently, he suddenly felt himself being swept majestically along in the wake of the comet, until all knowledge of time and space was lost to him. Finally he saw a beauti¬ ful planet just beneath him. He untied the rope and fell with a loud splash into a canal on Mars. He was rescued by a Martian beauty whom he soon married. Frank later succeeded in establishing communication with his friends on earth. Journeying through the mid-west, I found the palatial homes of Ruth McCrary, Mildred Ritchie, and Marjorie Clodfelter, who are now very successful farmerettes. I learned from these friends that B. W. Hall and James Barger are now holding res¬ ponsible positions on the police force of Chicago. One bright Sunday morning, after arriving at Denver, Colorado, as I watched the people hurrying through the crowded streets, one person especially attracted my attention. It was Clyde Plyler. He still had that sprightly step, pleasant smile, and erect figure, but years of toil had planted their stamp upon his brow. With dignity he entered a large church, where he delivered a sermon that I thought might have almost startled the philosophers of old. As I wandered on, I came to Hollywood where I was permitted to look in upon the studio of Thomas Mashburn, the great movie magnate. I found Lois Smith, Margaret Coley, and Elizabeth Belt employed as directresses”. They were filming one of Zelma Ayer’s master productions. I was agreeably surprised to meet Ruby Parrish, Lucille Curlee, and Francis Cornelison in Hollywood. They had come West hoping to look after some recently acquired oil interest. They expect soon to be millionaires as a result of their newly discovered gushers. From here one can get a splendid view of the cattle ranches of Guy Propst and Shelton Shupir.g, where Earnest Harviel, Robert Lyerly, and Preston Lemley are enjoying the thrills of western life in the role of cow-boys. I was pleased to note Robert McQuage was director of athletics at Stanford University. Sadie Strange, Elizabeth Leonard, Mildred Belt, and Janet Lentz have formed a corpo¬ ration and have purchased the Great Salt Lake in anticipation of operating the greatest ECHO YEAR 1929 PAGE 39 salt works in the world. In Arizona John Thomas and Carroll Earnhardt were delving into some old ruins, presumably in an effort to establish a more direct lineage between themselves and these whom some suspect of being their ancient ancestors. On the Mississippi, Bruce Ridenhour and Bill Talbert have the distinct honor of managing the largest whaling industry in the South. Impelled by their common love of gaity and high life, Walter Cook and Frances Murdoch went on the stage. They are now conducting a vaudeville in a small Louisana town, where they are making a great success. In Atlanta I found that J. P. Curlee is one of the most influential bankers in Georgia. He is the only multi-millionaire of the entire class. Lloyd Goodman and Betsy Burt were the first members of the class to wed. Lloyd is now pastor of a large church in Spartanburg, South Carolina which position he fills with masterful eloquence, quite likely due to Betsy’s inspiration. The next place to which my attention was attracted, by the side of several landmarks, I recognized as the old home town. I found that Louis Harrison had been elected mayor and that Catherine Brown, Nina Shuping, and Virginia Owen were members of the City Council. Seme of the most attractive business and professional signs which I noticed were: Ruth Kesler, Justice of the Peace,” Law Firm of Edith Holshouser and Ethel Kirkman,” Butterfly Beauty Parlor”, with Nava Powlas Jessie Pitman, and Elizabeth McCall, experts in charge, Freda Edmundson and Kate Whitaker, Der.tists- Teeth Pulled With or Without Thrills”. Here the broadcasting station is largely taking the place of the newspaper. Some of the latest bits of news that they were broadcasting which I thought might be of interest to my class-mates were: Agnes Menius, American prima-donna wins applause cf Europe; Philip Monroe and A. C. Skinner succeed in establishing the first permanent settlement at the South Pole; Virginia Foil elected Governor of North Carolina with overwhelming majority; Billy Cole declares himself a candidate for the presidency running on independent ticket.” Billy, realizing Robert Linn Bernhardt’s political ability, had chosen him as his cam¬ paign manager. Robert was one of the foremost politicians of the day. His speeches swept over the people like a rushing torrent and engulfed them in their eloquence. On the outskirts of the city is the large air-port. Here, Lottie Anderson, Margaret Lentz, Mary Elizabeth Brown, Joe Lyerly and Emiel Saleeby are all engaged in aerial navigation. I was surprised to learn of the air-mindedness of these class-mates and to know that some of their aerial achievements almost rivalled those of Col. Chas. A. Lindbergh. The high school has grown to be quite an institution with Philip Miller as principal and Sara Dorsett, Evelyn Anderson, and Agnes Deal members of the faculty, all engaged in the glorious work of imparting knowledge. Speaking of teaching reminds me that Nellie Morgan had prepared for the teaching profession, but greater excitements were in store for her. In less than a year she met a handsome aviator; it was a case of love at first sight. They eloped in an aeroplane, and surprised their friends by flying to the Alps on their honeymoon. Thelma Lemly, Vera Mac Uzzell, Ruth Ritchie, and Kearney Smith chose stenography as their profession, Kearney was engaged as court stenographer for several years, but her winsome ways and cooing voice soon captured the affections of a young lawyer. Thelma, Vera Mae and Ruth are still remaining true to the joys of single blessedness. Arriving in Washington, I learned that Jane Kluttz is one of the most conspicious figures in public eye today. She has represented her state in the U. S. Senate for two successive terms, but has lately resigned her seat because of the wish of her husband, Stahley Brown, that she retire from public eye and assist him as Sports Editor of the Daily Tribune”. And you many not believe it, but there in Washington were Ralph Bridges and Herbert Hoover receiving honorable recognition from President Philip PAGE 40 ECHO YEAR 1929 Peacock for distinguished service. Ralph and Herbert were driving along a country road one day. A terrible drought was holding the country in its grasp, and vegeta¬ tion on all sides was withering and dying. They noticed in an Irish Potato patch one potato which was faring exceedingly well, in spite of the fact that all its companions were dead. They hastened to investigate and found an onion growing near the potato. The solution dawned upon them; the presence of the onion was causing a continuous flow of tears from the potatoe’s eye, thereby furnishing self-irrigation. The president considered this discovery a great step in the advancement of agriculture. President Peacock chose the Hon. Allen Rouzer as his private secretary. It is said that Allen’s words are full of wisdom and are of much value to those who are able to comprehend them. Desiring to make some observation at Dr. Isabel Camp’s Hospital, I went on up to Baltimore. On the way I was delighted to have as congenial friends Julia McKinney and Dorothy Ennis, who were going to New York to open a studio of music and art. Upon reaching the hospital, I found Hazeline Grubb, Mildred Roseman, and Rachel Barnes operating surgeons in charge, and Lucille Hendrix, Viola Hoffner, Mary Kepley, and Mildred Queensbury trained nurses. As I travelled on, Harvard University in all its stateliness stood out before me. I wondered who of our class-mates could be there. I was not long in doubt, for looking inside, I saw Billy Busby, with all the dignity that becomes a L. L. D., expounding to a group of young lawyers what they are pleased to call a legal technicality. In New York I attended the theatre where I noticed that Margaret Kirk, Jean Free¬ man and Charlie Cross were using their musical attainments to good advantage, as the orchestra struck up the air of Norman Church’s latest popular numbers, I’m sitting on Top of the Moon”. It was with delight that I witnessed the dramatization by Kathyrn Cook, Bunny Helms, Elizabeth Feamster and Jimmie Sparks, of one of Jean Lyerly’s famous productions, The Trials of a Henpecked Husband”. Jean is one of the most popular writers of today. She has always had the air of a dreamer, and of such poets and authors composed. These friends informed me that a number of our class-mates were in Europe. So, in order to observe their careers, I had to journey across the Atlantic. I had as pleasant companions on this trip Eugenia Link and Mary Dan Morris, who were going abroad to do advanced study in music. They told me that Junius Thomason and Hugh Julian were in Berlin doing research work in the field of medicine and Beatrice Jennings and Mildred Hinson were somewhere in Europe in the interest of Art. Arriving in France, I visited the American Embassy where I learned that our tall friend Arnold Dalton, after leaving high school took up the study of law. He later entered the political world. There his career, as befitted his statue, was a rising one. He is now representative of his country in France. Lucy Linn came to Paris to study fashion designing. Here she fell in love with a dashing young count. He of course fell a victim to her irristable charms. She is now Le Countesse de Mouton. In Berlin I was surprised to find that the ruler of Germany had called Clifford Hodge and Max Thomason to his court. In their scientific research they had discovered a use for doughnut holes. The German ruler quite naturally became interested and in recognition of the scientific achievement, wished to decorate them with The Order of the Iron Doughnut”. They, however, declined, stating that they had come in contract with that order at the cafeteria. Harry Graham left B. H. S. with every intention of entering the ministry. Finally, he realized that the poetic element in him was too strong for him to follow any other calling, so he began his work in earnest. He scattered his lyrics far and wide over the world. His masterpiece, Ode to a Woodpecker”, came to the attention of the king of ECHO YEAR 1929 PAGE 41 the Cannibal Islands, who was so deeply moved by its beauty that he at once made Elarry poet laureate of his domain. It was, of course, quite natural that Fannie Rainey, one of the most religiously inclined girls of the class should become a missionary. After some years of preparation she embarked for Africa. Her boat was wrecked in a storm, and she was washed ashore onto a small island. Imagine her surprise when she discovered Harry sitting under a cocoanut tree writing a Pindaric ode. It is said that the meeting of these old sweet¬ hearts was most pathetic. How he wooed and won her with his love sonnets is a beauti¬ ful story. And now as we leave the mystic reals of the future let us turn to our respective duties of the present, but remember what I have revealed, and if you be a Junior take cognizance of these marvelous careers and strive to follow to the best of your ability the excellent examples of your departed friends, the Seniors. —Marie Morgan. ECHO PAGE 42 YEAR 1929 LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT Let there be order!! We, the Senior Class of 1929, do, by unanimous consent of each and everyone hold these, the following truths to be self evident: That all men are created equal, that they are endowed by a home of education with certain unalien¬ able rights; that among these are: pleasure, liberty, and pursuit of happiness; that to form a barrier to these rights, a group of ladies and gentlemen, often misunderstood as Faculty is instituted. But now as we are Seniors it has seemed to be their duty, even their privilege and joy to cast away all past abuses and provide new guards for our future security. Wishes and prayers of many years have been answered to some of our honorable roll, including Messrs. William Talbort, Frank Ritch Irvin, Caroll Earn¬ hardt, Hugh Julian, and Stonewall Jackson Yancey. Also it seems evident that when¬ ever any such government is instituted by a group of ladies and gentlemen, already mentioned, calamity and destruction must,follow, after, on an average of four years, although some unusual students have endured pains, tortures, and painstaking times amounting well into years. Thus we, the class of ’29, believing ourselves, at the present time, to have membranes in perfect functioning order, some of which are even brilliant, and with no physical defects as yet, have the belief that we are to be overcome by that destruction and calamity in the course of a, few days, to your deepest joy and satisfaction. Therefore, we hereby profess and confess, affirm and confirm, swear and declare, revise and devise, make and remake, sound and resound, construct and erect the following Last Will and Testament, hoping yea!! even praying you will take up and proceed with the vocations, professions, confessions, inhabitations, estimations, ambitions, and characteristics, in this dear school, as we so nobly and loyally did not because of ungifted means of accomplish¬ ing such a deed or deeds. Hark! Teachers, students, and otherwise, lend me your ears. The following things will be sacrificed for your benefit, not merely for your pleasure. ARTICLE ONE-—With the uttermost thanksgiving and profound gladness do Mar¬ garet Preston Kirk and J. P. Curlee bestow their dignity to Nell Lancaster and Robert Murdoch. ARTICLE TWO—With an honest and sweaty brow, and hands covered with grime does Virginia Foil hand cut her working ability to Margaret Smith. ARTICLE THREE—Jane Marlin Kluttz and Walter Miller Cook Jr. present their attractiveness to Elizabeth Price and Curtis Williamson, hoping they will uphold it with unstained honor and glory through their married and single years. ARTICLE FOUR—Popularity is indeed a noble thing; therefore, Jimmie Sparks and Lucy Linn trust that after their own spirits have crumbled to dust that Bernard Wil¬ liams and Joyce Killinsworth will still cling on it with success. ARTICLE FIVE—Clifford Flodge, Robert McQuage, Virginia Foil, Virginia Owen, Edith Holshouser, and Elizabeth Belt turn.over their athletic ability to Wilburn New- some, Robert Reeves, Joe Gardner, Lorene Baker, Rochelle Luther, and the Monroe duo. Staley Brown who in every one’s opinion is the greatest star of B. H. S. leaves his athletic ability for all future inmates of this institution to strive forward to. ARTICLE SIX—In this doomed class few who have the mind of geniouses may be found. Those who are so fortunate are: Shelton Shuping, Hugh Propst, Phillip Peacock, Marie Morgan, Eugenia Link, and Kearney K. Smith. These ladies and gentlemen feeling no longer a need of their wonderful gray matter cast it adrift for Willa Griggs, Genoa Mills, Edward Saleeby, and Harlan Kimball, to collect. ECHO YEAR 1929 PAGE 43 ARTICLE SEVEN—Little discussion or opposition will be made to the following verdict handed down by Mildred Rosentan and Junius Thomason: Elizabeth Wright and Roy David Beaver will from this date be acknowledged as the biggest flirts in B. H. S.” ARTICLE EIGEIT—R. Linn Bernhardt gives his indifference, a characteristic that has made him stand in the limelight, to his dear friend Van Barker. ARTICLE NINE—Knowing his deep interest and enthusiasm for it, to Mr. James E. Moore, we leave all chewing gum found stuck on and under the school furniture. ARTICLE TEN-—Harry Graham hopes no one will ever attempt to pass two motions at once as he did at the first of the year, but gives his cute manners along with John Thomas, Lois Smith, Betsy Burt, and Julia McKinney to certain sophomores and fresh¬ men whose names will be read on request. ARTICLE ELEVEN—To Miss Rice and Mrs. Crater is left the duty of picking the best citizen, a title left vacant by such seniors as Nina Shuping, Fanny Rainey, Nava Powlas, Thomas Mashburn, Ralph Lippard, Allan Rouzer, and Louis Jennings Harrison. ARTICLE TWELVE—One hundred and five seniors take with them all confusion and noise which the principal thinks they may have caused in assembly and in their place leave to Mr. Knox a tcmb-like silence which may or may not be broken by the remaining seven hundred students. ARTICLE THIRTEEN—If this article is to be feared we give to the nearest blazing furnace, but if it is lucky we give it to the Freshman class. ARTICLE FOURTEEN—Lloyd Calvin Goodman hands down his executive ability to Webster Collett, the new president, with the hope that he can convince the student body that all things work for their good. ARTICLE FIFTEEN—All sidewalk found within fifteen feet from the flag pole is ordered to be sacrificed by the student body for the private use of Kitty Pierce and Harry Buford. This location, which Norman Church and Sarah Dorsett held without legal right until now, has been met successfully by a first installment for all future classes to keep up. ARTICLE SIXTEEN—Various kinds of talent are possessed by some of our trust¬ worthy members; therefore Beatrice Jennings and Elizabeth Belt, artists extraordinary Mary Dan Morris, Arnold Dalton, and B. W. Hall, future Metropolitan stars; leave their abilities to Eunice Harmon, Taft Hutchins, Herman Kneeble, Anoznetta Fisher, Peggy Fairley, Paul Kearns, Maxine Vogley, and Red Thompson. ARTICLE SEVENTEEN—To the Faculty who are sending us away, we leave a new Senior class to keep them busy with papers, lectures, and small after school classes. ARTICLE EIGHTEEN—Isabel Camp and Abie Carr Skinner Jr. leave to Mildred Crowder and Archibald Rufty their ability to talk in the Library with the hope that they will be sent out less often for this offense. ARTICLE NINETEEN—Here the entire Senior Class of ’29 gives with no ill feel¬ ing, but with all sincerity their deepest appreciation and gratitude to Mr. Knox, our beloved principal; and to the entire Faculty an ever growing memory of the kind¬ ness and benefit which we have gained from our contact with them. ARTICLE TWENTY—As a remembrance of our affection for and interests in our Alma Mater we hereby bequeath with the happy wish that it may long prove of use to our beloved school. Hereupon, we the foresaid Class of 1929, believing ourselves sane and competent do affix our signatures and ' seal; to this, our Last Will and Testament, May the 21, ECHO PAGE 44 YEAR 1929 in the vear of our Lord nineteen hundred and twenty-nine and do hereby appoint as executor, Mr. John Southern, soon to depart with us, signed: William Thomas, David Busby, Jr. Lawyers.

The participation of the class, as juniors, in so many activities of school life foretells of a very successful year as seniors.

As a result of this committee’s investigations a constitution was adopted, a corps of officers and a council elected, and today we have a thriving organization whose purpose is to build character, to develop personality, and to promote the welfare of the student body. This year the council was composed of: Lloyd Goodman, president; Margaret Smith, vice-president; Beatrice Jennings, secretary; Alma Hedrick, treasurer; class representa¬ tives: Betsy Burt, Allan Ilouzer, Fay Anthony, Ray Daniel, Margaret Sullivan, Ray Ketner, Agnes Menius, Max Thomason, Jessie Pittman, Joe Gardener, Madge Fayssoux, Nell Choate, Tom Cook, Dewitt Scarborough; committee chairmen: Jane Kluttz, Margaret Rouzer, Isabel Camp, Louis Harrison, Kathryn Cook, Webster Collett, Thomas Mashburn, Elizabeth Price, Billy Busby, and Robert Reeves.

The C-Why Science Club is in its first year of existence. It was organized at the beginning of the school year under the direction of Mr. Southern, for the purpose of arousing interest, stimulating initiative and increasing knowledge of scientific phe¬ nomena. The regular bi-weekly programs have been planned so as to carry out this aim. Membership in the club is limited, by the constitution, to those students now taking, or those who have had Chemistry or Physics. All new members are elected by the club. Officers are elected each semester: Ralph Lippard was president for the first semester and Charles Bolden served the last semester. Other officers were: vice-presidents Frank Irvin and Curtis Williamson; Joe Lyerly served as secretary and treasurer for both semesters; Richard Bradshaw and Ralph Lippard have been chairmen of the program committees. Mr Southern has been supervisor for the club. PAGE 5 8 ECIIO YEAR 1929 LEE S.

It is composed of about forty boys who have received their block S” in some sport. The members of this club stand for high ideals in athletics; their work is to carry on athletics between the different classes and to promote varsity athletics to a higher degree. It is indeed an honor to be a member of this club. Every boy should work hard and earn a letter so that he may become a member of this great club. YEAR 1929 ECHO MASK AND WIG CLUB The Senior Dramatic Club and those aspiring to membership met early in September for the purpose of reorganizing and planning the year’s program. The group felt that it should have a distinctive name and finally Mask and Wig” was chosen. With its splendid corps of officers the Club has accomplished more this year than ever before in its history. The first production of the year was a three-act comedy, Only Me”. For this play the scenery was designed and painted by the Club; the Manual Arts Department doing the carpentry work. Soon after the holidays work was begun on three one-act plays, one of which was chosen as the entry in the State Dramatic Tourna¬ ment. The Crowsnest” was selected. Those appearing in the play were: Francis Murdoch, Billy Cole, and Fawrence Russell. The setting, the crowsnest of an old hooker beating her way down the South American coast, was designed and made by the students. Though we did not reach our goal, the finals at Chapel Hill, we are proud that we were able to play in the final contest for the Western District honors. This is indicative of the good work done by the club. The final production of the year was the Senior play, Kempy”. We feel justified in the belief the curtain was closed on a year of real achievement in the dramatic work of Boyden High. The Mask and Wig Club bids fair to do greater work in the future.

The Girl Reserves have had a very successful year. They not only look on the serious side of life, but also have lots of fun going on hikes, picnics, and weenie roasts. ECHO PAGE 62 YEAR 1929 MUSIC DEPARTMENT The Music Department has in this, its second year, made a great deal of progress. Besides the regular chorus, glee clubs, and orchestra there was organized a band and music club. The band was at first organized to play at football games, but this spring, with the addition of ten new members it has been put on equal footing with the orchestra with rehearsals during school hours. It has had several handicaps but nevertheless splendid work has been done. 1 he Music Club developed into one of the largest and most popular clubs in the school. Its chief work was the development of better appreciation of good music in the school. ICIIO YEAR 1929 PAGE 63 The chorus and glee clubs, with the aid of the orchestra, presented a two-act operetta Up in the Air”. This was given with an all-chorus cast and chorus, no outsiders being used. The operetta was presented twice, with great success, in the high chool auditorium, and once, by request of the P. T. A. in the Innis Street School. Four members of the chorus also attended the First Annual All-Southern Chorus. At the State Music Contest one first and one fourth place was won by soloists from the depart¬ ment. The orchestra, with an enrollment of twenty-three, did some of the finest work ever done in the school. They assisted with the production Up in the Air”, and many other entertainments both in the school and in the community, winning well deserved praise. Some of the best members of the orchestra attended the State Music Contest in Greensboro, and were winners of a second and a fourth place.
