GLENNA FLORENCE SARTAIN “potch” Wilsonian Literary Society. “The wildest manners with the bravest mind.” Glenna always greets us with a cheerful smile. She has an unfailingly good disposi¬ tion, and her grades do much towards win¬ ning the Scholarship Shield for the Seniors. We wish her all success in the future. ALICE VIRGINIA SMITH “hank” Basketball ’23-’24, Boosters’ Club ’24-’25, Athletic Association ’23-’24-’25, Sidney La¬ nier Literary Society. “Who says in verse zvhat others say in prose.” We feel inclined to believe that Alice has a side to her nature that few of us have ever reached; but, judging from what we know of her, we feel that this side is sure to be worth while. She is our Class Poet, but unlike most poets, her source of inspira¬ tion is still a secret. FREDERICK MILLER “FREDDIE” Treasurer Wilsonian Literary Society ’24, Vice-President Wilsonian Literary Societv ' 25, Secretary Athletic Association ’25, Manager Football Team ’24, Manager Basketball Team ’24-’25, Cheer Leader ’24-’25, Athletic Association ’22-’23-’24-’25. “A man after his own heart.” bred has always been a loyal supporter of the school in every respect, and many of our activities are the results of his splendid leadership. He has some outstanding charac¬ teristics, among which are his ability to evade work and his apparent effort to avoid girls since, what he considers, “an unfortunate love affair.”

GLADYS CATHERINE ROSE “daddie” Sidney Lanier Literary Society ’24-’25. “Many a flower is born to blush, And win with fragrance its foes; But zee arc sure no flozeer could Be dearer to us than our Rose.” Gladys is a sweet, sincere girl who has helped us over knotty problems with her mathematical ability and made us feel her worth in her every deed. ELIZABETH BEAUFORT REVERCOMB “bugs” Girls’ Basketball ’22, Class Treasurer ’22, Class Vice-President ’24, Vice-President of Girls’ Athletic Association ’24, Vice-Presi¬ dent Wilsonian Literary Society ’24, Secre- tar 3 ? and Treasurer Wilsonian Literary So¬ ciety ’25, Wee-President of Girls’ Athletic Association ’25, Class Treasurer ’25. “Her charming looks a cottage might adorn Sweet as the primrose peeps beneath the thorn.” “Bugs” has a way about her that is en¬ tirely original in every detail, especially her way of expressing herself in English class. Those of us who believe in dreams predict for her a happy future in a rose-entwined cotatge, probably brick. LAWRENCE LLEWELLYN MCCARTHY “mac” Athletic Association ’23-’24-’25, Football Team ’24-’25, Basketball Team ’24-’25. “The man that blushes is not quite a brute.” Lawrence has been one of our most diligent workers and most willing friends all through the four years in C. H. S. He was our first hero on the football field in ’25 when a broken shoulder disabled him for the rest of the season. We have just discovered lately that he is a “lion among ladies,” for the most demure of our Senior girls is wearing his football letter.

Wil¬ liam has time to do everything that he should and a few 1 things he shouldn’t. If red-haired girls inspire such records as Bill leaves behind him in all the activities of C. H. S.. we would advise all boys to worship at the shrine of some “strawberry blond.” GRACE AILEEN WOLFE “gracious” Sidney Lanier Literary? Society ’24-’25, Debating Team ’24- ' 25, Girls Athletic Asso¬ ciation ’22-’23-’24-’25, Boosters’ Club ’24-’25, Vice-President Class ’25, Editor-in-Chief of Annual ’25, Valedictorian ’25, Orchestra ’25. “Worth, courage, humor, and intellect.

She takes her sense into her fun and pep into her work—an excellent formula for success, as she has demonstrated. She is the pride of the Class of ’25.
