WILLIAM PENDLETON THOMPSON HILL, Jr. Entered 1942 Pete Hill has been one of the best known and best liked boys on the E. I-I. S. campus this year. His love of fun and friendliness have attracted all he has come in contact with. Very little has hap- pened this year which Pete has not been in on. On the football field this year Pete, one of the returning letter-men, was alternate captain of the team. During the winter term he was outstanding in Centennial basketball and as the Annual goes to press it is expected that Pete will be one of the main stays of the baseball team. both in the right field position and at bat. In classes Pete has always been a good student and he will graduate cum laude. an honor which few receive. In addition to these honors. Hill has been an active member of the Chronicle Board, the Whispers Board. and the Hop Committee as well as the E club. Pete expects to make Georgetown his college alma mater, and we wish him very good luck there. CHARLES TALBOTT HITESHEW, Jr. Entered 1942 For four years now Toby has kept up an amaz- ing average in his school work. Often he has led the entire school: it is indeed a rare event or acci- dent when his name is not read on the high list. Tobe is generally regarded as the King of the Brains This year he is taking 6 subjects and graduating cum laude. From this one would naturally think he would be too busy to enter into any of the school's activi- ties, Not so. for not only has Hiteshew played Jay- vee football for two years. but he has also been a monitor for that length of time. The junior teams have benefited from his participation greatly. A wide circle of his friends will certify that a better natured boy will not be found anywhere. In the literary line. Tobe has been an active member of the Blackford society where he has done well. Hiteshew leaves us this year for an unknown destination, probably a northern college. The very best of luck to you, Toby. l20l

LOUIS ALVIN GRAVELLE, Jr. EDWARD HARRISON HANCOCK Entered 1942 Entered 1943 Four years ago Al appeared as a meek and lowly rat and since then he has accomplished a great deal. Born with a genuine desire to play football, this year he earned a Varsity letter at guard. despite the fact that he was one of the team's three lightest players. A very competent lirst sacker in baseball. Al played a gooil deal last year and chances are this year hell make first string, Although not one of the so-called brains of the class mom. Al has managed to keep up a good scholastic standard. Now he is climaxing his high school career by receiving his sheepskin. He cer- tainly deserves it. Al is also a very good monitor and has a per- sonality that most boys should be jealous of. We know that Al will make a fine Kaydet at West Point and we want to wish him all the luck in the world. Tomorrow Pete will be one of those lucky ones to step forward and receive a school diploma. He will have well earned it. He has maintained out- standing grades since he Grst came here. But you will find that Pete has not been con- tent to just work for grades. but has given some of his time to serving the school. This he has done admirably well. Last year he was manager of the Jayvee football team and this year he has kept the A. A. shop. Pete has also worked at track and played quite a bit of tennis, He has not heen gifted with exceptional talent for sports. but that has not kept him from participating in these and working hard at them. This year Pete was chosen a monitor and did this work well. He has been active on Whispers. The school wishes Pete a lot of good luck. U91

JAMES FLETCHER LOGAN HUGH JACK-SON MORGAN. Jr. Entered 1944 Eflfefed 1943 Two years ago James Logan arrived at E. H. S. In those 2 years he has done much: a lot more than most boys are able to do in twice that time. Jimmy excels in many things but lessons are his strong point. Last year he averaged up in the 90's on all his exams. and this year he continued in the same way. There is seldom, if ever, a high list that does not bear his name near the top. In spite of this he takes very hard subjects and is one of 3 to take 6th math. Jimmie is also an actor. In fact an excellent actor. The 8:30 club has not put on a show as yet this year. but when it does, it is certain that Logan will play an important part and play it well. In athletics Jim's strong point is Stewart A. C. His short but well-built body can accomplish many feats of wonder on thc parallel bars, the ropes, and in wrestling. Jimmy plans to enter M. I. T. next year. He will gain honors we are sure. 2 Concluding three eventful years at E. H. S.. Hugh is reaching his goal, graduation. Hugh has been active in athletics, working on the smaller teams in football. This year found him on the varsity. but the coaches decided that he could best serve the school by coaching the 130 lb. football team. He soon showed the school that he was an ideal choice. Hugh will always be re- membered by the members of the 130 pound team for the splendid work he did with them. The season's record will attest to how well he succeeded. But he has not been idle in the schoolroom either. While not always on the high list, Hugh has turned in good work by means of real effort, He has carried out his duties as a monitor this year with credit to himself. He has gained friends because of his spirit and humor. The whole school joins in wishing Hugh success at whatever college Hugh decides to enter next year. l 'l
