MARIAN AUGUSTA REED “Fair was she to behold that maiden of seventeen summers.” Literary Editor of “Rapahanoc” ’25; Athletic Association ’22, ’24, ’25; Tennis Club ’24, ’25; Captain Class Basketball ’24; Wilson Literary Society ’24; Junior League ’25; Class Basket¬ ball ’22, ’24; French Plays ’24, ’25. Memories of Southern climes and Pa¬ cific isles cling to Marian. A bit of her life has been spent in Honolulu. She is a favorite classmate, true friend, zealous student, a pleasant and attractive young person. She is one of the few who hold to the tradition of long hair, refusing to have her golden locks bobbed. BLANCHE JULIAN RUSSELL “They are only truly great who are truly good.” Athletic Association ’23, ’24, ’25; Tennis Club ’23, ’24, ’25; Cum Laude ' 23; Basketball ’22, ’23, ’24; Wilson Literary Society ’24; French Club ’24; Junior Orchestra ’24; Junior League ' 25; French Play ’25. Blanche in an old-fashioned costume with wide bonnet and lace gloves is an exact replica of the far-famed Southern belle. Her slow speech and quiet gaiety have an irresistable charm that gives her a distinct place in the memories of her classmates. XENIDR E1AXX ,

WHEELER TERRELL THOMPSON It is better to learn late than never.” Hi-Y ' 22 ; Dramatics ' 22 ; Varsity Basketball ’22, ' 23, ’24; Tennis ’22; French Play ' 22 ; Class Basketball ’23, ' 24; Varsity Football ’24, ’25; “F” Club ’24, ’25. MARGARET HENRIETTA PEPME1ER “Content myself to do unbounded good.” Athletic Association ’25; Kenmore Literary Society ' 24; Junior League ' 25; Class Basket¬ ball ' 24. Here is “Bus,” who has a record for saying the fewest words a day. A very good athlete and student, you would ex¬ pect nothing less than a good sport in every sense of the word, and that is ex¬ actly what you find. There is no time to count the number of girls who have pined because of Wheeler ' s not noticing them. SENIOR CLASS Margaret is quiet and studious. Though she keeps out of the throbbing current of our life, yet she is a loyal Senior, ready to help the class when the occasion comes. She is a first class student of Domestic Science, and no doubt she will be an effi¬ cient and deserving little housekeeper. [ 34 ]
