E P ELWEISS KATHERINE McDONALD, B. A., II A CHARLOTTE, N. C. Varsity Basket-Ball, 1913-T4; Critic of Pierian Delta Society, 1913-T4 and 1914-T5. “The Lift lest Rebel'’ Although Katty,” of diminutive stature, occu- pies little space in the world, yet she holds a prominent place in the thoughts of her fellow- students. Katherine’s greatest gift, her argumen- tative power, is unlimited, and whether gaining her point or not, she always exercises her woman’s privilege of having the last word. She is a law unto herself,” and does what she pleases, regardless of the opinion of others; for her motto is, Be yourself, and leave custom to the fools who need it.” ASHBY HERRON, B. A., II A CHARLOTTE, N. C. President Class, 1911-12; Athletic Editor of Edelweiss, 1913-'14; President Pierian Delta Society, 1914-15; Lawyer, 1914-’15. “A Person of Some Importance A tall, handsome girl, who walks with an athletic swing and an independent air. She is popular with all the girls, but especially is she dear to the Pies.” Yet, strange to say, this dignified Senior often forgets her high position and stoops to angelizing” !! Although a typical girl of the twentieth century, from many appear- ances we sometimes think she belongs to B. C.” 25

E P E L WE I S S ETHEL TROTTER, B. A., n A CHARLOTTE, N. C. 'Happy-Go-Lucky” Yes, she has an abundance of curls, and they are every one natural, too! When this little curly-haired girl first entered college, we soon discovered that she was one of the few who possessed a psychological mind, and although slow to anger, when aroused she will give you a piece of the same. Ethel is a born housekeeper, and gifted in culinary arts: and, as this is a very effective way of reaching a young man’s heart, we feel that her fate is sealed. WILLIAM VASHTI HOGGARD, B. A., n A WINDSOR, N. C. Varsity Basket-Ball Team, 1910-’ll and 1911- 12; Captain Varsity Basket-Ball Team, 1914-’15. “The Joy Bringer Who would think that Vashti, of the golden hair and merry laugh, was a serious student of stern history! Yes, Vashti rarely worries, and, in spite of her historical work, finds time to take a prominent part in athletics. Indeed, she is happiest and at her best when she has a basket- ball tight under her arm ! The radiance of her hair is reflected in her bright disposition, which is not weighed down even by Ethics, hut ever bubbles up in a way that wins all hearts. 24

E P E L WE I S S MAGGIE YORKE HOUSTON, B. M., II A MONROE, N. C. Varsity Basket-Ball Team, 1913-’14; Treasurer Class, 1914-15 “A Bud of Promise As a charmer, Yorke is irresistible, and when it comes to dancing, her sparkling brown eyes keep up with her “light, fantastic toe. Too full of life to spend much time on books, nevertheless, by her quick insight and cleverness, she manages to come out with flying colors. As an athlete, she is one of the best, and always displays true sports- manship. Whatever may be Yorke’s future, she carries with her our best wishes for success in life—and of course in love. EVELYN BOYD, B. M., II A ROANOKE RAPIDS, VA. Vice-President Class, 1913-44; Grind Editor of Edelweiss, 1914-’15. “Mrs. Red Pepper ’ Look twice! Don’t be mistaken ! Yon glisten- ing object is not the sun but only “Snippy’s’’ crown of glory. Her hair is no brighter than her disposition, and she goes around gladdening the hearts of all, ever being the center of a merry group. Her witty sayings and ability to mimic always make her attractive and entertaining. Besides these gifts, perhaps the greatest is her musical talent, as “her very foot has music in't as she comes up the stair.
