OLIVE ROSE DANIEL “Polly” Glee Club, ’26, ’27; Athletic Association, ’27; Home Economics Club, ’25; French Club, ’28, ’29; Junior Chorus, ’28. Polly is always looking at the compass. Why? Can’t you guess? To see which way the “West-phalls”, of course. That’s terrible! Don’t spring another one on her as she hasn’t recovered from this one yet. To be quite serious—Polly, you are terribly stingy! You always keep your temper. Polly also keeps her friends, keeps her appointments, and almost all her lessons up to date. Station C-R-A-Z-Y, signing off. JOHN BLACKWELL DAVENPORT “Jack” Athletic Association, ’27, ’28, ’29; Stu¬ dent Council, ’28; French Club, ’28. ’29; Thomas Jefferson Literary Society, ’27, ’28. ’29; Civics Club, ’28, ’29; Krabba Staff, ’29. A very studious young pupil with am¬ bitions galore. It is well that Jack does not take his loves seriously or he would have died of a broken heart before he was able to walk. He plays the piano unusually well. If he would let his hair grow anti complicate his name, he might develop into a second Paderewski. VIRGINIA LEWIS DESPER “Diinc” Woodrow Wilson Literary Society, ’26, ’27, ’28; Latin Club, ’26; Athletic Asso¬ ciation. ’26, ’27; French Club, ’28; Glee Club, ’27, ’28; Junior Chorus, ’27, ’28; Treasurer, Senior Class, ’29. Virginia is one of our good students. Maybe there is something in the name, Virginia, that just makes a girl do her best. She is attractive, and what is best of all, she is friendly. Many a pupil in Hamp¬ ton Lligh is proud to call her not only classmate, but friend. JOHNNY HITE EDWARDS “John” Home Economics Club, ’25, ’26, ’27; Woodrow Wilson Literary Society, ’25, ’26; Commercial Club, ’26, ’27; Spanish Club, ’27, ’28; Junior Chorus, ’28. A young man who was saying good-bye clung too long, Johnny thought. She asked him pointedly, “Do you think I am a mem¬ ber of the Helping Hand Society?” Echo answers! Johnny is not conceited even though she has all the essentials. She seems to appreciate a good joke, at least she must, since she gets along with -. Seventeen

RAYMOND LAFAYETTE CROCKETT “Ray” THELMA CHR1STIANE COILE Athletic Association, ’27, ’29; French Club, ’29; Thomas Jefferson Literary So¬ ciety, ’28; Secretary, Latin Club, ’29; Junior Red Cross, ’29; Junior Chorus, ’28; Associate Editor, Krabba, ’29. Thelma, the student and poetess! Her excellent marks in school testify to the first. She can take the commonest of earth’s treasures and put them in a realm of glory in her poetry. She is very re¬ served, but learn to know her well and you will get a g ' eat deal out of life. CATHERINE ANNE COONEY “Shug” Athletic Association, ’28, ’29; French Club, ’29; Latin Club, ’29; Junior Chorus, ’28. The only person so far recorded who would rather dance than eat is Shug. Let me tell you that she has not practised in vain, for she is almost an artist. It would be hard to find a better dancing couple than “J. R. and she. Shug has gone through her classes in fine style. It is up to the boys to find out if Shug is as sweet as her name Athletic Association. ’25, ’26, ’27, ’28; Orchestra, ’25; French Club, ’28, ’29; Latin Club. ’25, ’26. Raymond is about the quietest boy in the Senior class, and he is not rivaled by many. He studies quite hard and has a lot of patience with his studies. Raymond has only a few confidants, but those few think a great deal of him, and we don’t wonder. MARY LEE DANIEL Literary Editor Krabba, ’28; Secretary 4A Class, ’28; Assistant Editor Pioneer, ’27; Athletic Association, ’26, ’27, ’28; Woodrow Wilson Literary Society, ’26, ’27; Thomas Jefferson Literary Society, ’28; Bessie Lee Booker Journalism Club, ’27; Commercial Club, 28; Spanish Club, ’26. Mary takes school at her leisure spend¬ ing a good deal of her time in the Horary. Maybe the environment ol the library in¬ fluences her as she can give a very good book review. Mary will become a jour¬ nalist or something in that line and will make good at it, too. Sixteen

EVELYN OSBORN FRALEY Woodrow Wilson Literary Society, ’26, ’27; Thomas Jefferson Literary Society, ’28, ’29; Latin Club, ’26, ’27; Athletic Associa¬ tion, ’26, ’27, ’28, ’29; Junior Chorus, ’28; French Club, ’29. Believe it or not! Evelyn was born in the flourishing town of Hampton. This, however, did not give her a “crabby” dis¬ position. In fact, she is very bright and sunny. She certainly would be lost away from the seashore (going East) for she has a hard time swimming. ALVERN LILLIAN FULLER “Vern” Woodrow Wilson Literary Society, ’27; Spanish Club, ’27, ’28, ’29; Athletic Asso¬ ciation, ’28. Alvern is not lazy, but if laziness re¬ quired effort she would be one of the laziest girls in Hampton. She makes a success of everything she engages in, and so well that one cannot be jealous. Of course she is pretty! “Janet” Commercial Club, ’26; Glee Club, ’26, ’27, ’28, ’29; Athletic Association. ’28, ’29; Junior Chorus, ’28; Junior Class Secretary, ' 28; Athletic Council, ’29; Thomas Jeffer¬ son Literary Society, ’26, ’27, ’28. Whenever one hears, “Hello, Elsie,” look around for Paul. We have never asked Elsie to sing “Killarney,” but we know she can, because of her pretty dark hair and Irish blue eyes. SARAH EMMA LOUISE FACE “Sally” Woodrow Wilson Literary Society, ’26, 27, ’28; Treasurer, Woodrow Wilson Liter¬ ary Society, ’27; President, Literary So¬ ciety, ’28; Operetta, ’26, ’28; President, Glee Club, ’28, ’29; Secretary, Glee Club, ’27; Secretary, Class, ’26; Journalism Club, ’26; President, Journalism Club, ’27; Sec¬ retary, Class, ’27; Athletic Association, ’25, 26, ’27, ’28, ’29; Treasurer, Athletic Asso¬ ciation, ’28; Junior Chorus, ’28; D. D. K., ’26, ’27, ’28, ’29; President, D. D. K., ’28, ’29; Cheer Leader, ’25, ’26, ’27, ’28; Home Economics Club, ’26, ’27; Manager, Basket Ball. ’29; Secretary, Senior Class, ’29; President, Senior Civics Club, ’29. We refer you to Sarah’s activities list for all the nice things that we’ve left unsaid. Eighteen
