Inez also came to us after our Freshman year but one would think she was one of the first members to enter the school.

li- 1922 MESSENGER -?aT fes+H DURHAM HIGH SCHOOL GRACE ELIZABETH BROWN None knew her but to love her. Age 173 Height 5' 3 Grace is another one of us who longs to be a musician. She has not been especially active in society and draniatics but then someone must do the listening. Grace is very much interested in her own work and when it is finished to suit her she has little time for outside activities. '1'his type ol' girl is very rare and the class of '22 greatly appreciates those that are in its midst. XVe predict for Grace great success us a musician and we will look to her to make '22 famous in the musical world. RORIAN HARTON ROMAN Brown eyes that sparkle. Age 153 Height 5' 6 g Weight 130 Roman is by nature a jolly fellow who makes us feel good when we meet him. If you once know him, you will always know him. He is of the care-free, fun loving, always full of pep and talk. and even in his few and far between moments of seriousness, he carries a lurking smile. SARAH ISVELYN SALMON A full assurance given by looks. Age 183 Height 5' 6 g Weight 185. Evelyn's another one of our members who is prominently represented. XVl1ether her ambition has any relation to this we are undecided. The same told that Evelyn has a great and overwhelming desire for wings like Noah's dove to fly away from everyday things. YVonder where she'd fly? Eve- lyn's quite fond of athletics also. and often distin- guishes herself in the milder forms of them. CLAUDE .A'lAY Of loyal nature and noble mind. Age 185 Height 5' 10M g Weight 145. Cheer Leader 4, Athletic Association 4, Blackwell Literary Society 4, Chairman Ex- ecutive Committee, Hi-Y 4, Glee Club 4, Dramatic Club 4. If you are looking for an all round, good natured fellow and one that does not mind work, look for Claude? Although Claude has been with us only one year, he has won great popularity in the class of '22 and throughout the school. When the call for a cheer leader came he was there with the goods. He not only showed his colors in this line but in the Literary Society and on the Messenger Staff he has done his work well. ,O COLINE MASSEY The fringed curtains of thine eye advance a merry sparkle. Age 193 Height 5'5 g Weight 125. Although Coline has not been with us all the way she is, nevertheless, a very necessary part of '22, Were it not for Coline with her babyish smiles and ways we would indeed be a dead loss. XVe look to Coline when we want something funny, but in spite of this, we know that she is really very serious. She wants to be a nurse and we sincerely hope that she will be very successful in the medical world. Page 7'uw'rif.fl-eiglit x
