FRANCES JUANITA HAWKINS ELSIE ROBINSON HARDY “Vi” French Club, ’29; Athletic Association, ’28, ’29; Civics Club, ’28, ’29. According to our dictionary: “Elsie— an interesting girl, one who is genial, loyal, timid, humorous, and original, sometimes used of one who draws well, both on paper and in a crowd.” This dic¬ tionary surely tells the truth about Elsie. I wonder whether Elsie is the one who made the bright remark that “marriage unites two complex sentences into a single paragraph.” JOHN PRESTON HARDY “J. P.” Glee Club, ’27, ’28, ’29; Athletic Asso¬ ciation, ’28, ’29; Treasurer, Senior Civics Club, ’28, ’29; Treasurer, French Club, ’28, ’29. John’s summary of the rules for living to a ripe old age is simply: “Forget every thing that doesn’t make one happy.” He almost wears upon his forehead the mystic symbol, “Don’t forget to pay your dues.” A sweet little Fre shman said, “He’s so gloriously vital.” If Hollywood ever hears of John Hardy, Ramon Navarro will sink into oblivion. “Nita” Commercial Club, ’27, ’28; Junior Red Cross, ’28, ’29. Frances likes authors such as Paul Ford, or rather she prefers books like “Janice Meridith.” Some author said that if we keep reading books of that character we will marry for love. Now we wouldn’t dis¬ courage you for the world, Frances, but remember your doom! If you do not stop eating so much candy, you will be looking for a list of successful diets instead. IDA BELL HAYWOOD Woodrow Wilson Literary Society, ’27; Junior Red Cross, ’28, ’29; Senior Civics Club, ’28, ’29; Basket Ball Team, ’27, ’28, ’29; Athletic Association, ’27. Ida is one of the artists of our class. She has real drawing ability. Ever notice how she draws attention? She is really a pretty picture herself. She has never drawn herself, but what about paint?

CECIL HUDSON FULLER “Ce” Mammie Society, ' 27, ’28, ’29; Electrical Society, ’27, ’28; Athletic Association, ’27, ’28. Who’s lazy? 1 wonder. Oh, that little boy from Phoebus! Fuller is his name, isnt ’it? Sure, you guessed right. Cecil is so happy-go-lucky and free from care. He likes girls and his favorite teacher is -, but there, if we told some others might get peeved. MARGARET R. GOLDSTEIN “Goldie” Glee Club, ’26; Operetta, ’26; Woodrow 7 Wilson Literary Society, ’26, ’27; Thomas Jefferson Literary Society, ’28, ’29: Ath¬ letic Association, ’27, ’29; Junior Chorus, ’28; French Club, ’29; Music Club, ’26; Winifred Fales Club, ’27, ’28; Junior Red Cross, ’29; Civics Club, ' 29. Margaret is modest hut talkative. No one knows how she ever managed to ac¬ complish this strange effect. She usually passes in every subject and if the teacher has a headache and gives her a lower grade than she expected, Goldie knows she’ll do better next time and doesn’t worry. CURTIS LINWOOD HALL “Buster” Athletic Association, ’27, ' 28; Football, ’27; Crabha Civics Club, ’28, ’29. Those who know Curtis know 7 he has grown (since his senior picture was taken) a mustache. Really, it is a shame you can’t see how handsome he is now. If you take a fountain pen and draw one or two lines where mustaches are usually placed you will get an idea of the present effect that lias been placed before the public by Curtis Hall. HAZEL MARGUERITE HALL “Bare” Commercial Club, ’26, ’27; Spanish Club, ’27, ’28; Junior Cohrus, ’28; Athletic Asso¬ ciation. ’28, ’29; Junior Red Cross, ’28, ’29. Hazel, we have received a number of compliments for you, but we won’t write them out here as that would be quite em¬ barrassing. Two of them were something about your personality and charm. Stop laughing! We mean it. They are the two important factors in life so hold on to them. Nineteen

“Thine” Glee Club, ’27, ’28, ’29; Junior Reel Cross, ’29; Civics Club, ’28; French Club, ’28, ’29; Senior Editor, Krabba Staff, ’29; Junior Chorus, ’28. Where there’s a will, there’s a way. Alberthine has found some way to do a little bit of everything. She’s studious, mu¬ sical and athletic. We know she’ll always cherish the remembrances of her work as senior editor on the Krabba. Maybe (?) she’ll cherish thoughts of that scene in the Glee Club pageant, too. WALLACE HOGGE Clv ' er Leader, ’2b, ’27, ’28, ’29; Presi¬ dent Class, ’26, ’27, ’28, ’29; Treasurer, Thomas Jefferson Literary Society, ’25; Operetta, ’26; Assistant Business Manager, Krabba, ’26; President, Music Appreciation Club, ’26; Journalism Club, ’27; The Club, ’27; President, Thomas Jefferson Literary Society, ’27, ’28; Athletic Association, ’25, ’27, ’28; Operetta, ’28; Manager, Baseball, ’28. Wallace carries about all the honors of H. H. S. away with him. He has been presi¬ dent of his class from his freshman year to his senior year. It is said that Wallace’s popularity is due to his lack of interest in girls. We wonder! WALTER HOOVER Athletic Association. ’26; Football Squad, ’27. ’28; French Club, ’29. Walter has a keen sense of humor and he can even laugh over his three year struggle to get that coveted letter in football. Walter’s teachers say he does good work, which is high honor for a humorist. Like his namesakes in the White House and in every well equipped home, we predict that Walter will make a “clean-sweep” along the highways of life. JACK HORSEMAN “Horsie” Latin Club, ’26; Woodrow Wilson Liter¬ ary Society, ’27, ’28, ’29; Football, ’27, ’28; Baseball, ’28, ’29; Manager, Basketball, ’29; Athletic Council, ’29; Treasurer, Woodrow Wilson Literary Society, ’29; Vice-President, Junior Class, ’28; Glee Club, ’26, ’27. Jack is planning to become an elevator boy. To go out with Jack is to go out with a good sport—for a good time. A little studying wouldn’t hurt him, but why worry about that? Jack is very fond of chemistry, girls, and candy. ’Nuff said! T weinty-One
