ESTELLE NAOMI LEWIS “Stei.” “Never grumbles, never shirks, She is one who does her work. ' ’ Athletic Association, ’23; Appreciation Club, ’24; French Club, ’26. Hark! that melodious voice! Who is its owner? Wily, Estelle Lewis, of course. That voice of hers will take her through the world if the giggle will not. She never worries over her studies nor pushes herself on anybody else, but she gets there just the same. “She is a jolly good fellow.” With quiet dignity and reserve she has made her way through the school so unobtrusively that only those who have known her best have realized her worth. MARY STRIBLING LOTTIER “Stuibbie” “Lillie but loud.” Athletic Association, ’23-’24-’25; Woodrow Wilson Literary Society, ’24-’25-’26; Basketball Squad, ’24- ’25; Journalism Club, ’25-’26; Winifred Fales Club, ’26; D. D. K., ' 26; French Club, ’26. “Stribbie” is the best all-around girl in our class. She is popular among both sexes and fits snugly any¬ where and at any time. She is attractive and pop¬ ular, and those laughing, sparkling eyes greet us every morning and start us for the day. Her clear voice is frequently heard resounding through our halls—after school, of course. She is small, but everywhere at once. ELI,A ELIZABETH MARTIN “Libby” “An air of good humor always surrounds her.” Athletic Association, ’23-’24-’25; French Club, ’25- ’26; Junior Chorus, ’25; Latin Club, ’26; Woodrow Wilson Literary Society, ’26; Winifred Fales Club, ’26; Journalism Club, ’26. “Libby” can laugh and she can talk, and she does both of these. She is very sympathetic and good- natured, and impresses us all as being serious. This doesn’t mean that she doesn’t have a good time, because she does. Elizabeth is a very important member of the “Senior Trio.” Whenever we see her, we know that R.osalie Kyle and Elizabeth Cole¬ man are not far away. JOHN CABEI- MF.SSICK “Jim” “Climb, though the rocks be ragged. Athletic Association, ’23-’24-’25; Spanish Club, ’25-’26; Cdee Club, ’26; Woodrow Wilson Literary Society, ’26. “Jim” is our coming Caruso. His pleasing bari¬ tone has already begun to attract attention. He is the boy that passes six out of six classes and aston¬ ishes us al l by his knowledge. There is one thing Cabel will never forget. Just ask him what ar¬ rangement” means, and he is sure to give a correct definition. His wavy hair and bewitching ways have found their way into the hearts of certain girls who live in Newport.

GRACE JOHNSON “Duck” “The secret of success is the constancy of purpose .” Athletic Association, ’23-’24-’25; Thomas Jefferson Literary Society, ' 26; French Club, .’26. Grace is a girl of many moods. She often laughs contagiously, and then again she is a serious busi¬ ness girl. She works with the best of us and laughs with the worst of us. She doesn’t give voice to her opihions very often but when she does, we are sat¬ isfied that it is an opinion worth listening to. CATHERINE MARY KELLY “Kate” “If you want a girl who is first rate; Put in a thumb and pull out — Kate. Athletic Association, ’24-’25; Spanish Club, ’25. Catherine is one of our studious Seniors, and she believes in “knock ’em cold” where her lessons are concerned. She claims she will be a stenographer, but who knows? When you first know Catherine, you think she is quiet and dignified, but after you know her for quite a while, you find out that she can be as jolly and gay as any other girl. If “Kate” attempts anything, you may rest assured it will be finished. ROSALIE KYLE Puggy” “Be a task yre it or small, Do it well or not at all.” Athletic Association, ’23-’24-’25; Woodrow Wilson Literary Society, ’25-’26; French Club, ’25-’26; Junior Chorus, ’25; Winifred Fales Club, ’26; Journalism Club, ' 26. A small bundle of laughter—that’s Rosalie. Some people are blessed with talk. Rosalie is blessed with talk and laughter too, but we don’t mind as long as she goes about brightening up others. We find a serious side too. She has set the rest of us Seniors a good example. She is a dandy student, a good sport, and has a ready wit. MARTHA LOUISE LANE “Lou” “Of gentle manner, unaffected mind, Love of peace, and friend of human kind.” Athletic Association, ’23-’24-’25; Latin Club, ' 23- ’24-’25-’26; Woodrow Wilson Literary Society, ’25-’26; Class Poet, ’26; French Club, ’26. “The last of a long line of Lanes” is Louise. She is mighty good in Latin and she has nearly reached perfection as a student of our much loved” math. Louise seems to care little for the opposite sex. Perhaps she has taken this for her motto— “I will be happy and free, And I’ll be sad for no man.” ea

ALICE LUCILLE MILLER “Lu” “I never worry. Let the other fellow do that.” Athletic Association, ' 23- ' 24- ' 25; Glee Club, ’23- ' 24; Thomas Jefferson Literary Society, ’24-’25; Latin Club, ’25; Junior Chorus, ’25; French Club, ’26. If ever Lucille is blue, nobody knows it. In public she seems to be always smiling and ltappy. She takes life as it comes and finds the best in it. Just mention tennis, horseback riding, or bridge and she gets all pepped up. Happy anil care free, she is always ready to work or play. SHASTA NELSON “Jane” Hath so much wit and mirth and fun about her, There is no living with nor without her.” Journalism Club, ’24; Woodrow Wilson Literary Society, ’24-’25-’26; Athletic Association, ’24-’25; French Club, ’25-’26; Latin Club, ’26. Shasta likes to talk a lot, but after all, that’s a common failing. She can certainly debate and is wise enough to know when to stop. Shasta can play basketball to perfection, and we depend on her to help in every game. She is happy-go-lucky and her laughing blue eyes remind us of old Ireland. HELEN COLIER POWELL “Heddie “You may look o ' er all the ivorld, but never find another just her kind.” Commercial Club, ’24; Junior Chorus, ' 25; Spanish Club, ’25-’26; Woodrow Wilson Literary Society, ’26; Typist of Pioneer, ' 26. If you should meet Helen, you would recognize her by her laughing brown eyes and brwon curls. She is very industrious and an ace on the type¬ writer. Her fingers fly across the keys like light¬ ning. We are told that the postman often leaves letters at her house—from whom we cannot guess— unless it is a certain young minister. ALICE PROUDMAN “Wool worth” ' ‘Wanted—a muffler.” Latin Club. ’23-’24-’26; Oppreciation Club, ’23-’24; Junior Chorus, ’25; French Club, ’26; Athletic Asso¬ ciat ion, ’23- ' 24. When Alice is around there’s one thing sure — you’ll know it. If she’s in a talkative mood, you ' d better steer clear of her. She is good in all her work. If you ask her to help you do something, she is always willing to do it. Alice goes out for her own brand of athletics—she rides a bicycle to school.
