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

GRADUATION WILLIAM MacKENZIE JENKINS, JR. S25 Graydon Avenue Norfolk, Virginia Third Year Monitor, Varsity Football, Varsity Basketball, Varsity Baseball, Business Manager Chronicle, Whimers, Secretary-Treasurer Missionary Society, E Club, Hop Committee, President B.L.S. This year Mac completes three years at E.H.S. His excellent record in all phases of school life can be attributed to earnest endeavor, a cheerful personality, and a line sense of responsibility. Through hard, unrelenting practice, Mac emerged this year as a football star, in spite of his bad shoulder. He was a very valuable member of the basketball squad for two years, and this year he was one of Coach Ravenel's most consistent performers on the diamond. Mac has the highest average of anyone in the Graduat- ing Class. He was besieged with innumerable honors: monitor, office boy, secretary of the Missionary Society, President of Blackford Society, business manager of the Chronicle, just to mention a few. Come next year Mac will be added to the ranks of the Cavaliers at the University of Virginia where he can be expected to blaze new trails of glory for the School. JAMES WILKINSON JERVEY, III Route 7 Greenville, South Carolina Fourth Year Honor Committee, Monitor, Varsity Tennis, Stewart A.C., Rifle Team, Missionary Society, Choir, Grins and Grimaces, President Glee Club, President B.L.S. Ever since the founding of the School, South Carolina has been furnishing us with boys who have been out- standing in some line or other. Jinx has proved to be no exception to this rule. Throughout his four years at E.H.S. Jinx has been recognized as a leader in many phases of school life. He has clone commendable jobs as president of the Wilmer and Blackford Literary Societies, and he has performed his duties as a monitor with serious effort and so well that he was an obvious man for election to the Honor Committee. Jinx also has acquired a reputation as a brilliant student and a hard worker. His name has become a familiar sight on the High List, both on the monthly reports and the examinations. A true gentleman, scholar, and friend, Jinx will long be remembered by his schoolmates for his bright, genial, and friendly personality. We wish him all possible success. .- 1 1 ,.- 94 sc 'Q 911151, u 6' 9 lf, 1 3 -9... fs si si KEN E 5 55 . 'on q'fn,,,,,0!',f5 Jgunovl. i . .-
