Elizabeth Sanders West, Mississippi “ Her eyes reflect each changing mood And make her beauty grow She has a soul of sympathy That makes us love her so. What is it that is so alluring about “Liz?” Is it beauty or sweetness? No, there is only one word which can express it and that is “charm”. Friendliness, attractiveness, brilliancy, with a lot of pleasure mixed in — that is Liz. Sec. Lesbian Society ’28; Spanish Club ’28; Vice-President of Fidellis S. S. Class ’28; Lesbian Society ’26, ’28. Virginia Adelle Mitchell ----- itta Bena, Mississippi “ There is none like her , none Nor will be when our summers have decayed. Virginia is one of those girls who always takes things “Soft” and “Easy”. She could not be accused of being lazy. She simply has the policy of “rest today, for tomorrow you may have to work”. She is always in for a good time and usually has one. When Virginia is around there is always an abundance of mirth in the atmosphere. And thus, she is well- liked because of her cheery, heedless nature.

Montez Weeks Doddsville, Mississippi “ A good true friend and jolly pal Whimsical , witty and wise A lovable, playful, active girl Makes good at all she tries. “Teddy” has a certain air of energy and ability about her that takes hold of any proposi- tion that she may attempt. We who have known her for two years have come to realize that when she puts her mind and pep to work on anything, success is assured. She is generous too, and has a warm place in our hearts.

Ruth Maddox Baltzer, Mississippi “ would take volumes to express what I ' d like to say about her, But of all, I guess the best is we couldn ' t do without her. Ruth is a girl who we all respect, she is sincere in all she says and does. She loves to uphold truth and high ideals and is a girl worthy of trust. Far be it from me to portray her as a long faced goody-good, for Ruth enjoys a good joke a smuch as any one I know of and always ready for a good time. Pres, of Senior Class ’28; Y. W. A.
