JOE BRITTON PAUL CAUSEY Age 19; Height 5 feet 7 inches Weight 143 pounds Age 18; Height 5 feet inches Weight 142 pounds ‘Once a friend, Always a friend!” “He could on cither side dispute, Confute, change sides, and still confute.” Aha! here’s that young gentleman who has caused many a N. C. C. W. girl to have pal¬ pitation of the heart. It is a known fact that when arranging basket-ball games out of town Managers always inquire if Joe is to play; for they say that is a determining factor in the number of female spectators. That’s all right though, Joe, we never complain about your preference for out-of-town girls, when we remember your basket-ball playing for old G. H. S. When the Senior Class began to look around for the High Life Editor-in-Chief, Paul was the one chosen because of his alert mind and high standard in scholarship. His favorite pastime is arguing. We wonder why he didn’t enter the Triangular Debate. Paul never fails in courtesy toward any one, as is shown by his being voted the politest boy in the Senior Class. Football Squad, 1919.

LYNDON BENNETT FRANCIS BLACKWOOD Age 16; Height 5 feet 5 inches Weight 130 pounds Much to himself he thought but little spoke.” The best goods come in small packages, and this is true of Lyndon. A hard fighter and a square player in a cool, quiet way—this is Lyndon. One feels that he could be trusted at all times in any emergency and would never prove unfaithful. Try as hard as he does. Lyndon cannot conceal the laughing light in his merry black eyes. Age 18; Height 5 feet 9 inches Weight 143 pounds Distinct in individualities.” Francis’s complicated nature makes him all the more interesting. He may be counted upon as always saying the thing least ex pected, and for this reason he is ever a source of joy to the opposite sex. A boy worth while, a boy who will fight to the bitter end for what he believes is right—this is Francis. Athletic Association, 1921-22. Literary Society, 1920. Senior Football Team. 1922.

3 Z3 8Z WILBUR COOPER Age 18; Height 5 feet 9 inches Weight 151 pounds “The glass of fashion and the mold of form. ' ' “Coop’s” good looks and marcelle wave make him the ideal of every Senior girl. He is always on the job when there is something to be done to make things go. Hal is also a wonderful pitcher and always ready when the call comes to put the opposing batters out of the race. MARTHA BOYD COX Age 17; Height 5 feet 4 inches Weight 110 pounds “Thy modesty is a candle to thy merit.’’ We’ll ever be thankful to Danville High School for our “Martie,” for it was from there that she came to us in our Junior year. Though a little reserved at first, her lovable disposition and straightforwardness won our hearts. Martha’s zeal in the classroom, to¬ gether with her magnetic personality, have made her one of our best all-round students, and we feel that all who can call her friend should count themselves lucky.
