ROBERT PERCY HINTON Uniontown, Alabama Second Year Varsity Football, Varsity Basketball, Varsity Baseball, E Club For being on the Hill only two years, Bumpkin has made quite a name for himself. Last year, due to his good nature and all round popu- larity, he was voted the Schools coveted Sportsmanship Trophy. In athletics Splinter has really been outstanding. Last year, however, his football season was cut short and his basketball and baseball seasons were hindered by a broken leg.

CANDIDATES JOHN KERMODE GILL, JR. Hobby Horse Farm Hollins, Virginia Fourth Year Monitor, B-Squad Football, Rillery, Soccer, Centennial Basketball, Varsity Baseball, Chronicle, Whirperr, Missionary Society, E Club, Cheer Leader, F. L. S. When the School List for the next session is made up, the absence of Jack's name will be felt greatly by all. Jack is possessed of more determination than probably anyone else in school. Not a person of natural bril- liance, Jack has really worked for his diploma. He is excellent proof of the fruits of hard work and ap- plication. Jack's an excellent soccer player and a B-Squad football star, but his sport is definitely baseball. A crack pitcher for two years, he showed no little talent with that horsehide. His speed and his marvelous control made him greatly respected by all of his opponents. Red is heading down Charlottesville way come fall. With his personality and way with the women, he won't need much luck, so all we can say is, We'll miss you! WILLIAM OGIER HANAHAN, JR. 8 Meeting Street Charleston, South Carolina Fourth Year Monitor, Varsity Track, Missionary Society, E Club, Choir, Waiter, Treasurer B. L .S. Aitch will always be remembered at Episcopal for his Charlestonisms. Even though one can't understand him when he gets excited, he is one of the most popular boys in the School. Bill works hard at anything he does, and so his gradua- tion is no surprise to us. By this hard work he has kept up an out-of-eighth average. He was too small for Varsity football, but in previous years he has been an active member of the junior teams. Bill's forte, however, is track. He was one of the most consistent point-gainers and our fastest sprint man. He is undecided as to what college he will attend, but we shall follow his career with interest as soon as we know of it. Meanwhile, he will travel with our best Wishes. . ,A . . -7 , if s '. :- ' , ffl' r, . 'ir' f ,f W' 1 ,?x4:,',-33014, f' . is '- is - 31 G? oqwmmdi f fzfun v t.

CANDIDATES RICHARD RATHBORNE GRAHAM HOBSON 204 Quaker Lane Alexandria, Virginia Third Year Monitor, Varsity Football, Varsity Track, Chronicle, Grins and Grimaces, F. L. S. This year writes Finis to Dick Hobson's three years at E.H.S. During these years, he has become known to all by his cheerful personality and all-around good nature. Q . The fact that he is receiving his sheepskin this year attests to his scholastic ability. Rare indeed was the time that the high list did not include his name. Although a day student, Dick managed to enter whole- heartedly into many aspects of school life. He has always worked hard at track, his favorite sport, and was expected to make his letter this year. Last fall he made the Varsity football team, working from the end slot. Besides athletics, he has been active in the literary societies, and has been an outstanding member of the drarnatics club. Dick plans to go next year to Princeton where he can be eitpected to represent the name of E.H.S. with honor. HENRY WINSTON HOLT, III 106 Penshurst Road Richmond, Virginia Third Year B-Squad Football, Varsity Track, Missionary Society, Grins and Grimaces During the past three years the High School has en- joyed the privilege of numbering among its student body a young man whose outstanding attributes of integrity and conscientious endeavor in all aspects of his academic life have brought him the unstinting respect and liking of students and faculty. Hannibal is the strong silent type, uncommunicative and reticent-except with his intimate friends-but with periodic outbursts of fiery good humor. A faithful worker on the business staff of Wlsirperr, it has been said of him by those most nearly concerned that this publication would have been lost without him. Either the University of Virginia or Princeton will feel the impact of Henry's personality and attributes next September, but, whichever institution acquires him, we venture to state that it will have occasion more than once to congratulate itself on having a scholar, a gentle- man, and a loyal, devoted adherent-all in one-to com- plement its traditions. s l,7+v':: 'x,q1 ' 1 L? 5552 gi El if Qnmnnf : ' 4,,wm t
