B. Cai’- penter the popular young author, tied with the book. “Speaking Correct English” which was written by Fred Tanner another young author. These two young men went to school together and have been writing ever since. These books rank with the best ever written on these sub- jects and should be read by all. (Editor’s note; They should be read by all who have absolutely nothing else to do, and are not particular how their time is spent.) oOo PROFESSOR JAMES BUTLER INTERVIEWED ON NEW THEORY For the first time since the forwarding of his new theory. Professor J. Butler was inter- viewed by the press. The inter- view follows: Q. How long did it take you to reach this conclusion, that the universe started, not from a single atom, as was formally believed, but from two minute atoms? A. Well it was like this, I was reading a fairy tale one day when I came across the expres- sion “Where you see one, you see another,” and basing my work on that I at once decided that the universe could not have begun from a single atom for that would have been contrary to that statement; therefore, (Continued on page 2) This is San’s fourth trip to the altar in the last nine years. The victim this time is the well known beauty, “Ducky” Davies, who is starring in Hoard’s new musical comedy, “Follies of ’44,” which is now playing on Broadway. oOo “PAUL PRY” RUNS THIRD IN DERBY Paul Pry was one of the two horses running in the Kentucky Derby. The other, Spark Plug, ran first, kept going around, passed Paul Pry at the first quarter post, came second and lost third by only a neck. Paul Pry is owned bv A. T. Howard, who is quite a familiar figure on the most famous race track in the world. A reporter interviewed Mr. Howard and he said, “Ladies and gentlemen, it may sound like I’m boasting, but T attribute the success of Paul Pry to his daily use of Woodbury’s Soap.” (Not one cent was paid Mr. Howard by the Woodbury Co. for making this statement.) (Ed. Note— He was paid by the Lux Co.) oOo CLINIC Dr. Robert Griffin is now holding a children’s clinic in this city. He has done much toward eliminating the dirty necks and ears that the moth- ers and teachers had to contend with in the past, and his name has become a household word. Powell Button and II. N. Hutcherson completed their round-world non-stop flight in 49 hours, 49 minutes and 49 seconds, which broke the for- mer record held by Russell Cur- tis. Curtis’ time was 50 hours, 50 minutes and 50 seconds. The boys landed at 5:55 last night on the field which was covered with about twenty people. As they landed, the crowd went wild and putting them on their shoulders, they took the boys up to the Mayor’s house. The Mayor happened to be in bed, but the boys didn’t mind that and neither did the Mayor. He came out front in his night shirt and delivered a welcoming address, and then he took a couple of medals out of the pocket in his undies and pinned them on the boys. The strange thing about the whole thing is that neither of the boys has ever flown a plane before. This is the way it hap- pened; they were down at the flying field the other dav, and they asked one of the pilots to let them sit in his plane as they had never been in one before. Well, he gave them permission and the first thing he knew they were roaring down the field. When they landed, they told him that they were unable to turn it. so they kept on going and finally they came back to the same place they had left.

IdAST Witt 5fMB GftSTAMtMT IRT o A ofolP OF 1934 : E, THE graduates of 1934, having finally reached our goal by approxi- mately four years of drudgery and hard work in the seemingly gainful occupation of education at Culpeper High School, make this, our last will and testament. ARTICLE I 0 THE faculty, each and every mem- ber, we convey our love and devotion and our most grateful appreciation for their patient, kind consideration during our years of study under them. To the Junior Class our place as models for the students of the lower grades. We trust that they will make as great a success of it as we did. To the Sophomore class a three months’ vacation. We hope that by next fall they’ll have quieted down some. To the Freshman class our indisputable reputation for good behavior. ARTICLE II 0 “BUNKS” Major, Sanford Heard’s wisecracks, which added to his own bountiful supply should prove useful to him in later years. To Oscar Bushong, Powell Button’s abili- ty to get on with the ladies. To Francis Harris a fond farewell from all girls in the graduating class and also a portable hatrack. To Edith Legg, Evelyn Bickers’ talent for saying the wrong thing at the wrong time. We also bequeath Edith, Frances Ros- son’s interest in A. T. Howard. To Janet Hutchinson, Frances Jo’s ability to stand firmly on the ground and pitch ball like a man rather than jump around like an aesthetic dancer. To Miss Minter a rolling pin which she will doubtless need in the near future. To Betty von Gemmingen, Miss Miller’s gavel with which to preside over the Hi-Y meetings. To Nancy Green, Fred Tanner’s ability to write poetry. To Maurice Kilby, Hugh Caperton’s honest opinion of himself. To Robbie Partlow, Sue Eastham’s un- limited capacity for food. To Morton Miller, Horace Taylor’s natu- ral gift in the field of oratory which we all feel he will have need of when he presides over next year’s Hi-Y Conference. To the modest Junior, Jim Coleman, D. W. Thornhill leaves his flirtatious ways. To any student who desires a stage career, Thomas Archer’s ability to read “Hamlet.” To Aubrey Wilson, Steele Ritter’s com- mon sense. Aubrey, please use it. To that bashful Junior, Charles Harris. Russell Curtis’ success in love. CLASS OF 1934 State of Virginia County of Culpeper I, Edward Duncan, notary public in said county and state do hereby certify this do- cument of the class of 1934.
