CANDIDATES JOSEPH RICHARD FLESHER 1212 Juliana Street Parkersburg, West Virginia Third Year Captain J. V. Football, Varsity Basketball, Monitor, Choir, Glee Club, F. L. S. In the three short years that we have known joe here on the Holy Hill, he has appeared to us to be one of the most versatile of our fellow students. Here we have one of the most natural athletes in the School. Too small for the Varsity squad, he captained the J. V. football team this year and did a top-notch job, as the team's undefeated record bears out. Joe's size did not keep him from being a fine basketball player. This year, with his speed, alertness, and keen shooting eye, he was a formidable threat to any opposing team. Joe was also an elhcient monitor and an active member of the Missionary and Fairfax Societies. He's Lehigh bound-all too soon, as far as we're con- cerned. We're proud to have known this one, good Joe. WILLIAM KENT FORD, JR. 72 Bath Street Clifton Forge, Virginia Third Year Honor Committee, Monitor, Varsity Track, Editor Wbirpen, President Grins and Grimaces, Missionary Society, Hop Committee, Bookstore Keeper Ever since he arrived on the Hill, Kent has been working diligently and faithfully for the betterment of the School. Few boys have achieved the honor and respect that are his. Athletically, Kent was too small for Varsity football, but he devoted his talents to the junior teams with great success. Track has been his sport, by hard and conscientious work he has developed himself into an excellent miler. A good student, he has adapted his fertile brain to many fields. This year he seemed to have crowned his endeavors in extra-curricular activities with the editorship of Whirperr. But the honor of which he can be most proud was his election to the Honor Committee-in well-deserved recognition of his standard of honor. Kent leaves us for Washington and Lee, there to con- finue ring honor tot School we T .l iW,,,l llfill' -W f E N lfu b 9? i ,ily l if 'Lai if V , ii 9jN

Whatever Pete does, he does earnestly, with spirit and strength, whether it be inthe classroom or on the athletic field, evidence of which is shown in his work on the B-Squad and in the Missionary Society.

GRADUATION JOHN VAUGHAN GARLAND 814 Graydon Avenue Norfolk, Virginia Fourth Year Varsity Basketball, Alternate Captain Varsity Baseball, Choir, E Club, Cheer Leader, School Room Keeper, Waiter johnny has accomplished much in his four years here at the High School. Not only has he been a leader in athletics, but also in every other phase of school life. ln sports his record speaks for itself. He has been a two-year letter man in both basketball and baseball. In basketball his overhand hook shot has made him one of our most-feared players. His fine throwing arm and consistent hitting earned him the honor of being chosen as alternate captain of baseball. John showed his interest in the School by a generous use of all his talents not only in athletics, but also in the Choir and social activities. - Although not a brain , Johnny showed us that by hard Work and conscientious labor one can hold up some pretty good grades. With all these characteristics much is to be expected of him at the University of Virginia next year. CHURCHILL JONES GIBSON, JR. 1208 West Franklin Street Richmond, Virginia Fourth Year Monitor, Varsity Foctball, Stewart A. C., Soccer, Track, Missionary Society, Choir, E Club, School Room Keeper, F. L, S. The chetubic countenance smiling, looking so solemn here, is that of Blue Boy Gibson. During his eventful stay here, he has gained many friends and won the ad- miration and respect of everyone with whom he has been acquainted. This year, bursting into the limelight from semi-seclusion on junior teams, he proved to be a pigskin sensation. Fierce tackling, vicious and effi- cient blocking, and receiving passes with great finesse made him one of the squad's most useful men. A mean man with his fists, Blue is a good college boxing prospect. He is a good student, he has worked hard and long, and he certainly deserves the old parchment! Holding positions as monitor, treasurer of Fairfax Society, and member E Club have been additional honors. He's University of Virginia bound with our best wishes. It ' 'N fyu 'milf' Krause' K
