O IN REMINISCENCE l-qw, 51 AUBREY EDWARD HUNTER GLADYS, VA. Pete Private, lst Platoong Corporal, lst Platoon, Member, Eureka Literary Society, Track Squadg Rifle Team, Blue Ridge Club, Long- fell0w's Club. This little runt came to Hargrave in the Fall of 1925, with no particular object in view except to grow to be a man. He has gained a scant halfvinch in height, and we seriously doubt that he has picked up anything in girth. Col. Camden owes him quite a large sum because he has failed to live up to his motto. He has certainly failed to make a man of Pete. To lay aside the jocular, however, we find that Pete is a very pleasant fellow-when he is asleep. He is extremely quiet-except when he has nightmares. Pete does have a very charming personality, and we have found him to be very studious and ambitious, particularly in Algebra and English. He has not starred in anything in the Athletic Department, but has added his weight and agility to the Track Teams. The fair sex seems to have little attraction for him, especially in and adjacent to Chat- ham. From the frequency of the arrivals of letters from Rustburg and vicinity, however, we are inclined to doubt that there is no one. What Pete expects to make of himself we don't exactly know, but we wish him success in his future life. LUTHER ANDERSON IRBY, JR. J AvA, VA. Cispikeii Member, Ministerial Club, Secretary, Min- isterial Clubg President, Ministerial Clubg Private, Band, Member, .leffersonian Literary Society, Member, Halifax Club. This young man made his home with us in the fall of '24. He seems to be very ambitious, and is al- ways striving to make himself worthy of a good name, he is a Christian gentleman and is well liked by all. He has decided to make the ministry his life's work. We feel sure he will succeed and prove to be a splendid minister. vv v 5 .v.v.v.v.u.u.vv. v. . . . . . . . . .v. . . - . . . ' 4

IN REMINISCENCE J f 3, I THOMAS GUY FOWLER GREENVILLE, N. C. Andy Gump Private, lst Platoong Member, Jeffersonian Literary Society, Member, Senior Class, Mem- ber, Cosmopolitan Clubg Member, Football Squad. Andy is a product of North Carolina, which he says is the home of Nhard-hearted Hannah. He has had quite a hard time during his stay with us, and this is the rea- son: when he is supposed to be asleep and in hed, he is often seen parading up and down the halls-gun on shoulder and eyes exceed- ingly wide open-trying to memorize Hamlet's Doxology. Just the same he is a mighty Ene fellow, and loved by all. ERNEST ARTHUR HARPER Pom' MOUTH, VA. Chubby, Member, Eureka Literary Societyg Football Squadg Junior Class Basketball, Member, Tidewater Clubg Basketball Squad, Private, lst Platoong Corporal, 2nd Platoon. Before you, ladies and gentlemen, is the likeness of our own Chubby, He came to us in the Fall of 1925, a part of the Norfolk and Portsmouth contingent, and has since demonstrated the calibre of folks they turn out down there. As a member of the Football and Basketball Squads, he has been the terror of our oppo- nents, both on the gridiron and court, having always acquitted himself with honor, both for the team and for himself. His prowess has not gone to his head, however, he is the same Chubby we first knew. His one failing is a liking for the female branch of the species. Everything was jake his first year here, but now she is at W. 81 M., and Chubby suffers from severe cases of lovesickness. After all, that is only natural, though. We cannot get along without them, and when we get them we can't get along with them. May fortune smile upon your efforts, Chubby, and may you he the success in life we believe you will be.

IN REMINISCENCE W f x 1 I McCLENNY LANKFORD DREWRYVILLE, VA. 'LBuckshot Member, ,leffersonian Literary Societyg Member, Tidewater Club: Private. lst Pla- toong Private. Bandg 2nd Lieutenant, Com- manding Bandg Secretary, Student Senate. Lankford has been a faithful student of Hargrave Military Academy for the last three years. Every morning he greeted us with the mail as he pulled the hill from town. We have found that he is not one of the leisure class. though he has found time to make friends with the entire student body. Buck- shot does not stand at the foot of his class. He is right there with the goods at all times. JOHN MCCANLESS sourn BOSTON, vA. 4cMnCa, Member, Eureka Literary Societyg Private. lst Platoong Member, Senior Classg Member, Football Squad. t'Mau came to us in his senior year after having completed his first three years else- where. During his short stay with us he has proven himself a gentleman and a true sport in all things. ln the classroom he has stood near the top of his class. On the athletic field his true sportsmanship has been linked with his good fighting spirit. Although he is a rat and his activities among the fair sex have been curbed to some extent by the rat rules, we suspect that he is quite a sheik in his home town. Marv has a fine disposition and is well liked by all who have come in contact with him during his stay here. He has won a place in the hearts of his classmates. and he carries with him the best wishes of all. .v.v.v.l.v.1.vtv.v.v.v.v.v.v.1.I.v.v.v.v.v.v.v.v.v.v.v.v.' 0 A v I v I 1 vs Q I v 7 v v v I U v v 1 v v 1 I v U v v v v u a g l
