Mary Sue Cunningham “MURSUE” “Her very frowns are fairer far, Than smiles of other maidens are.” Lanier Society ’26, ’27; Dramatic Club ’29; Assistant Editor of Annual ’29; Library Staff ’29. The fact that Mary Sue is the smallest in our class doesn’t mean that she is the least noticable. It is very different from that. All of us love her and she seems to have a smile that makes life worth while. Dixie Nell Hudson “SUPER-SIX” “Enthusiasm is the genuis of sin- cereity, and truth accomplishes no victories without it.” Lanier Society ’26, ’27; Glee Club ’29; Library Staff ’28. Here’s to one of the best sports in the Senior class! Jolly, vivacious, and care-free. We love your bright dis¬ position, Nell, and wish for you the best always. Thomas Andrew Henson “GRIGGS” “Live to-day forgetting the anxi¬ eties of the past.” Dramatic Club ’29. “Griggs” is a jolly good fellow. Find him when he isn’t teasing and you will do more than his school mates have done. He has a good word for everybody, thereby making lots of friends. Alex Lee Setser “SETSCREW” “He argues for pleasure rather than principle.” Setscrew can say more witty things than you would ever expect from one of his size. However, not all of his qualities tend toward the ridiculous, for he has plenty of good sense and sound judgment.

Helen Louise Jones “HECK” “Presence of mind and courage in distress, Are more than armies to secure success.” Basketball ’26, 77, 78, 79- S. S. S. Society 76, 77; I ramatic Club 79; Library Staff 79. Here is our athlete who is one of the most popular girls in our class. She is a good sport and excels in her studies. Besides being an athlete she takes a great interest in the opposite sex. Irvin Floyd Straine ‘Who can wrestle against the sleep?” Lanier Society 76, 77; Clee Club ’29. Although Irvin’s weakness is sleep¬ ing in classes he manages nevertheless not to flunk. He never shows his temper but is always good natured and jolly. Here’s hoping success comes as easy as sincere friendship. Lora Louise Talley “For work is a good investment and always pays.” S. S. S. Society 76, 77; Glee Club 79. Here’s a girl who has great ability and understanding. Lora is very sweet and has many friends in our class. We shall always remember her as one of the best all-round-girls in Franklin High. Mary Angeline Berry “My tongue within my lips, 1 reign, For who talks much must talk in vain.” Home Economics Club 79. The sweetness of Mary’s face be¬ speaks the gentleness of her character. She is very qniet but has a lovable disposition. She must keep her tem¬ per well under cover for we have never discovered it. All of us wish you happiness, Mary.
