MARSHALLITE. LUCILE MARSHALL BUTLER Upon Lucile the gods bestowed one of their choicest gifts—a rare and charming personality; and to it they added un- bounded enthusiasm and the ability to “put things through.” We usually have to let what’s on the inside of our heads console us for what's on the outside, but Lucile has the rare combination of brains and good looks. Reporter of G. H. S. C., Literary Society, Pep Club, Athletic Association. PRED BEANK What Marshallite has not noticed that brilliant spot of auburn about the school? “Linoleum” worked his way up in the cadet corps to the position of Lieutenant, and just as he has succeeded in that, so will he succeed in the business world. Lieutenant Cadet Corps, Athletic As- sociation. BLEA MAY BURTON “It was only a glad good-morning, As she passed along the way, But it spread the morning glory Over the live-long day.” May's ever-readiness to lend a helping hand where ever she can has won for her .many friends. As she leaves John Mar- shall, may all the favors she has granted be returned to her in “good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and run- ning over.” Girls’ Literary Society, Girls’ High School Club. GCIINTON aS AINIDNG As Yed Ray told Harry Vardon, it takes a good man to make the golf course (iy GAO), ‘Hoky”™ has shown that he is a good man by making the Hermitage course in “°76 (7?) and the John Marshall course in four years. Seriously now, girls and boys, he is the kind of fellow you want for a friend.

HAZEL BOHANNON Who does not know that blue-eyed, resy-cheeked, brown-haired girl called Hazel. If not, get busy and meet her, for it is indeed a pleasure. She always has a sweet smile for every-one, making brighter the paths of those with whom she associates. Good luck to you, Hazel! May that smile always brighten your future. Athletic Association, Patriotic Club. REX BLANKENSHIP To see him is to know him, and to know him is to love him. Both boys and girls are taken like this, for is he not the most gentle, captivating, quiet boy you ever met? Rex sings wonderfully. plays football, and has many other accomplish- ments. 1st Lieutenant Cadet Corps, Manager Baseball Team, Football Team, Track Team, Patriotic Club, Boys Debating Club, Recorp Staff, W, H. A. T. Club, J.M.H.S. Quartette, Athletic Association. ALICEVY. BARKSDALE The Magi tell us that red hair denotes impetuosity, but after knowing Alice we decided that it also denotes a cheerful disposition. She is an artist, an expert swimmer and dancer, but above all, the future Sarah Bernhardt or “Sis Hopkins.”’ Judging from “Gooberry’s” success as the hired lady in “Professor Pepp we expect great things of her. ANNUAL Staff, Pep Club, Athletic As- sociation, Senior French Society, Véice- President Patriotic Society, Vice-President Girls’ Literary Society. VIRGINIA BEAZLEY Virginia Beazley! Nuf ced!” Who doesn t know this “ petite cherie’’ with the winning smile? Virginia has a soul for music, and her dancing is a dream. In whatever direction her ship is turned, we predict smooth sailing.

JENNIE VENABLE BARKSDALE Joking always, Even at school— “Never be serious” Now is her rule— In all situations, Easy and cool. Such is Jennie, J. M’s own “joker.” That dazzling smile shows she appreciates a good joke. We will surely miss you, Jennie, but we hope you will always be able to laugh misfortune away, and by that laugh, draw Good Fortune to you. Patriotic Club, Athletic Association, Spanish Society. JAMES P. BAKER James completes a remarkable career at John Marshall. He has been very proficient in his studies and he has also been a favorite with all who know him. He has weaknesses (?) such as physics, French, and girls. Despite this fact, success is surely his, because he hails from the country, as do most great men. Vice-President Senior French Society, Boys’ Debating Club, Patriotic Club, Athletic Association. LUCILLE BRAGG Permit me, gentle reader, to introduce Lucille, the “Bragg” of our school. Lucille comes to us from Washington—a capital girl from a capital city. These few words are inadequate to express Lucille’s charm and winsomeness. Nay, whole volumes would not express it. Good luck to you, Lucille, on life’s journey, and may you be the truest arrow in Cupid's sheaf. Athletic Association, G. H. S. C. HARRY RAYMOND BRANDON Lost—in the universe, Captain Harry Brandon, one whose kindness and per- sonality have won for him scores of friends. No reward is offered, for Harry has successfully completed his career here, not only by attaining the rank of Captain but also by having his name on the Honor Roll. May success be his in the future!
