GLADYS ADELINE ROWLAND Euterpean Church Hill, Tennessee Secretary-Treasurer Tennessee Club; Glee Club, '21; Harmony Club; Sophomore Basket-ball Team, ’21; Member French Club, '24; Member German Club, '24. When the call to duty is sounded one may be per- fectly sure that Gladys Rowland of Church Hill, Tenn., will be there to play her part, whether in the class work, basket-ball or helping her friends. She is a consistent worker and her grades always average far above the safe margin. The teachers know when any work is assigned to Gladys that it will be done well and on time. Not only along the work line, but Gladys is ever ready to go out and lend support in athletics, and she can be counted on to be there with the ball at the right moment. Her sunny smile and even disposition make her the best of pals, and her personality will be missed when she goes from the student body to take up the teaching profession. 56

GWYN BRANTLEY PRICE Calliopean West Jefferson, North Carolina Calliopean Improvement Medal; Corresponding Secretary Calliopean Society, '22; Public Debate De- claimed '22; Secretary Debate Council, '23; Treasurer Calliopean Society, '23; Y. M. C. A. Cabinet, '23, '24; President Booster Club, '23: Public Debate Speaker, '23: Single Standard League; President Senior Class; As- sociate Editor Sphinx, '24; Editor College Hand Book; Student Council; German Club; Member Tar Heel Club; Member Kappa Phi Kappa Fraternity. From The Land of the Sky there came to us the most loyal ‘‘Tarheel” of them all. Trinity College lost a good student, a brilliant orator, and a real “fellow, all because the climate of Durham did not agree with him. For this “lad,” from the beautiful “Sapphire Country, has won a place in the hearts of the student body and faculty that few have attained. Gwyn’s honors have been legion. In fact, he has been an of- ficer in almost every worth-while] organization on the campus. We are confident that he has a brilliant future and will be an honor always to his Alma Mater. 55
