®f)e Cfjarles Citian, 1927 13 ANNE LUCILLE BINNS With a jest on her tongue, And a smile on her lips, She’s bubbling with fun to her fingertips. Lucile joined forces with us at Charles C.ty High School as a sophomore. She has taken a large part in school activities since she has been with us. Lucille is small, we must admit, but in stat- ure only; for her heart is big and generous. A laugh readily bubbles to Lucille’s lips, yet a tear comes quickly to her eyes. She may seem frivolous, for she is the life of the party, and the flapper of our class ; but in time of need, Lucille, the sympathetic friend, comes to the surface. She carries numerous books around, but you would have to ask her whether she studies or not, because I wouldn’t tell you. Yet she always knows her lessons, and especially H ome Economics. When it comes to cook- ing, she is hard to beat. We regret very much that Lucille is leaving us, but we feel sure that before many years have passed ; she will be making as good a wife as she has a school student. Pep, that’s Lucille ; Wit, that’s Lucille ; Brains, that’s Lucille too.

JAMES NIMMO HUBBARD, Jr. “Nim is jolly and A good sport, He laughs and keeps us gay. He studies and makes fine marks, He’s a pal in every way.” “Nim” is a shining star of the academic world as well as the athletic. Anytime or place you meet him, he has the same old smile that would win the friendship of anyone. When there is anything to be accomplished, just call on Nim” and he will stick with you to the last. During his stay with us both faculty and students have found in him a true friend, and we all hope and predict for him a success in whatever he undertakes. He expects to enter the College of William and Mary next fall. He doesn’t know what he is going to do, but whenever he decides ; it will be done.

14 tEfje Charles Ctttan, 1927 POCAHONTAS BINNS BLAYTOF Motto: “A little joke, a little rhyme, Helps to pass away the time.” Poca, the poet of our class, possesses con- siderable talent for drawing and writing poetry, which makes her indispensable to the class of ’27. Entering Charles City High School with the Freshman class she has shared all our pleasures and hardships during the four long years we have worked together. She is a real artist, and her cartoons and humorous verses help to drive away the blues on gloomy days. Her never failing wit and ever-ready supply of jokes make her welcomed wherever she goes, while her good humor, her honesty and her originality, have won for her many friends. As a friend she is loyal and true, one whom we may trust and know that our faith has not been misplaced. We know that we shall miss her presence and helpfulness when we part, but then we must not be selfish, so we wish her “Godspeed” in her chosen work.
