mi it 1 1111111111111111111111111 111 1 1 ii i it i min LAST WILL AND TESTMENT CLASS OF 1935 W E, THE Class of 1935, having completed our four years school course after many trials and tribulations have at last reached the final stage of school salvation— Graduation, do make th ; s our last will and testament, and we do hereby make the following bequests: ARTICLE I T O THE faculty we tender our heart felt thanks and appreciation for their kind, pat- ient guidance and undue worry they have endur- ed because of us; also all of the detention hall slios that they have so bountifully bestowed upon us from time to time, although we feel certain they will not need them next year. To the Junior Class our Sen ; .or dignity. May they always strive for the highest and best, and continue to uphold the standards of the past evamples. Virginia Kite does not leave a private “war” to the Junior class since th ' s war is snelled W-A-U-G-H but she bequeaths her at- tractive smile and pleasing personality. To the Sophisticated Sophomores, the great “honor” of entertaining the Seniors next year and do not frown for your time will come next. To the Freshman Class, our old note books, which we have saved from year to year, filled to overflowing with valuable information on all subjects. You m ; ght be so lucky as to find an old test paper, graded 95 or a discarded copy of a book report. Are we generous? ARTICLE II T O L. A. RHOADES, “Bunks” Major be- queaths a complete set of parliamentary rules to aid in carrying on the leadership of the Hi-Y Club. To Virginia Lewis, Lucy Allport’s Brandy method of throwing “come-up-and-see-me some- time” glances, which she hardly needs. To Wade Hitt, William Burwell’s dignity. William also bequeaths Jack Davies his joviality and singing ability. To Helen Jeffries, Inez Corbin bequeaths her permanent wave. To all admirers of good sportsmanship, Edith Legg leaves a good example of a good- all-around Senior, from the both students’ and the teachers’ point of view. To anyone who wishes a stage career she bequeaths her ability to impersonate Zazu Pitts. To “Runt” Tanner, Edward Duncan’s frank- ness and manly courtesy. There are also others that might profit by this gift. To the Junior girls, Lillian Brown’s passes to the Fairfax and her share of Leslie Taylor’s regard during school hours. To Hollis Colvin, who seems to have some trouble keeping that well groomed appearance, Jack Yowell bequeaths his supply of hair “slickum.” To Martha Johnson, the new Hi-Y presi- dent, Betty von Gemmingen’s wonderful leader- ship, her love for, and devotion to the club. This splendid gift is a necessary asset to any good club. To Francis Harris, his Senior admirers leave a safety razor guaranteed not to tunnel through his chin or a light weight baseball mask to protect him on his frequent trips to the drug store. We are not sure which is the more appropriate gift. To the Junior girls, Johnny Martin’s car full of gasoline, from one of our reliable ser- vice stations, and the trunk full of sweaters, letters, belts, and possibly an organization pin stuck around in the seat cushion somewhere. Now’s your chance girls! Step right up! To Jack Davies, Ann Watkins’ extra quality credits. To Charlotte Bishop, Ellen Smoot leaves her record of perfect attendance to Detention Hall. To Kitty Lee Williams, Nancy Green’s ability to recite and make orations and her ‘ Garbo” qualities. To Anna Marie Rue, Madge Gaines’ ability to wield her left hand which has written many interesting articles for her classes and the school paper. To Myra Smith, her sister’s ability to tap dance and to kick a stick with her feet crossed.

CLASS PROPHECY Station F-U-T-U-R-E broadcasting on a nationwide hook-up from the Ann Wingfield Memorial Stadium. Your announcer is “Bunks” Major and he will bring you the latest news of this great game between Culpeper and Cali- fornia Universities. I shall now turn the mike over to Jim Coleman, star reporter of the “Pepergram,” who will introduce some of the outstanding players.” “Good afternoon folks, Jim Coleman speak- ing and presenting the star players, the great- est of whom is that well known personality Harry Townsley, who has made many sensa- tional plays in this game. Next to Townsley we note 0. Bushong as the outstanding guard. Culpeper’s famous tackier, “Dolscy” Yowell, has lost his voice — believe it or not — and is now doing well in a hardware store in the town of Tootlesville, Virginia. Another great plaver who is missed greatly is Morton M’Uer who has tackled the profession of law on a big scale and has just won his fourth big case in which that well known movie ciueen, Nancv BH1 Green, was involved. And, folks, you should have seen her turning down those contracts on the court- house steps. But right here I surrender the m’ke to your announcer. “Bunks” who wiM re- view the celebrities. Let’s hear it, “Bunks”! “Well folks, there is quite a great crowd here today. Even the president, Mr. (X) is pres- ent with his Secretary of Agriculture, Edward Duncan, accompanying him. At the president ' s ri ght is sitting the family’s private Latm tutor, Ann Watkins, who is known throughout the nation. Near this nartv we see that great Pro- fessor, William Burwell. who has iust received the honorary position as Dean of Harvard Uni- versity. And who is that ladv, whv. it is none other than Mrs. Tweedledum, wearing a huge corsage of orch ; ds. Before her marriage to f he multi-millionaire she was the well known foll’es girl, Betty von Gee. (It has geen rumored that this was a fictitious name!) And while we are on the subject of flowers for all occasions, go to L. Pierce’s exclusive florist shop, located on East Street in this town. Now Coleman is con- versing with someone in dark glasses. Can it be? Yes! It is that modest Johnny Martin, bet- ter known to the public as the “missing link” in the great chain of theaters in this country. Near Mr. Martin is sitting that little dark-hair- ed lass named “the dairy maid” by her public, Virginia Kite is the original name, and even though she is alone today, we think all is peace- ful at home. Following down the line we see our great commentator, Joyce Guinn, who has just returned from a position in Europe. Accom- panying her is Marjorie Inskeep whose hatcher- ies are known throughout the world by all chicken lovers. Right now there is quite a dis- turbance in the lower end of the stad ' um. Now I can clearly see that the Woman’s Civic Cat Club has arrived. It has as its president Eliza- beth Wiseman, who has also been a great help in promoting the 4-H club, wh’ch has gained nation-wide recognition. Some of the outstand- ing members are Edna Good. Els’e Demp ev. and Mabel Curtis. And behold! There is that great night club hostess and proprietor. El ' en Smoot. who ; s better i-pown to all night, bib goers as “Barfly.” Her newest club “T’m Soun Spoon,” has iust been opened to the n” ul c °n H r ' em avenue. It ; s rumored th°t. Orv ' lle Smith, the world’s most or’ginal actress, has accepted the position of hostess in th ; s club. Over to our left, we see Me dee Oa’p°q onri Mary Booth who have both won scholastic hon- ors for debating and essay writing, respectively. Accompanying M ; ss Gaines is her petite secre- tary, Lucy Harris, w r ho has gamed a name for herself in the business field. The field of teach- ing and farming is represented by Elizabeth Blankenbaker, Virgina Yancey. Frankie Snvth, and Tandy Guinn. Both EPzabeth and Virginia are known for their abil’ty to teach and Frankie has just won the prize for having the most per- fect and natural farm grounds. Mr. Girnn has won fame in farming by crossing a potato and a carrot. He hasn’t, up until now, named this new vegetable. “Now folks back to the game. But it looks if there ; sn’t going to be a game. It seems that the boys forgot their umbrellas and rubber shoes and are calling it off because of the rain. So station “blub” F-U “glup” T-U-R-E and R-A-I-N are signing off until tomorrow morn ' ng at 7-00 o’clock. Be up and listening in, child- ren !” EDITH LEGG. mi mull mi mi 111 1 ii i mil minimum mm 1 1 mi inn mmmmmmmmmmmimmmmmmmmi immmmi imimii immimmmi

ODE TO C. H. S. Well, dear comrades, long we’ve traveled. To attain at last our goal — Graduation! Is it joy or sorrow Which predominates each soul? A glint of tear, a ghost of a smile, Betray what is uppermost in the mind Of every member of the Senior class Who leaves school and youth behind. Oh, memories, ever will you haunt us! Your bright threads mingled with the gray Of the uncertain pattern Fate is weaving. Will change darkness into day. Many times will we remember Teachers, helpful in the past, We must go forth and do them justice In the race of Life we won’t be last! C. H. S., we ask your blessing, As we begin to build the hive Of our life’s work all about us, say “Godspeed” to the class of thirty-five! Nancy Ball Green CLASS SONG (Tune, “When I Grow Too Old to Dream” ' ) When we grow to old to dream, We’ll have you to remember, When we drift down Life’s swift stream. Your love will live in our hearts. So, goodbye, our friends, From you we’re loathe to part, But each kind word and helping hand Will linger in every heart. In every hour of toil and play Our teachers have been near, But though we’ll miss them every day. Their work is carved on our hearts. So, leave you we must, For a goal we have to strive; But may your hearts dwell k ' ndly on The class of thirty-five. Nancy Ball Green.
