THOMAS ANDERSON Can anyone among us remember a time when “Tommy (such is his appellation among the feminine members of our famed student body) ever spoke to anyone without a smile? He is not only what may be termed, in common parlance, a ‘fine fellow,» but he possesses the quality that brings success—studiousness. Cadet Corps, Athletic Association, A. W @, ik, (Clips. ALICE, BAILEY Oh, where have we seen that name? On the Honor Roll, of course. A strange combination is Alice. She can look wise and impress her teachers with her brilliance or look vampish and impress some “cake eater’ with her dancing—all in one day. We hope she'll continue to impress people in such a way, and, indeed, we feel sure she will. RUBY BAILEY Ruby, a rare gem, indeed! Rubies are bright, very bright, but no more so than ours, whose brilliance inanother direction ‘cannot be surpassed. Life calls our Ruby from the old scholastic grind and takes her from us, reluctant though we are. May riches—yea, even like unto true rubies, be thy lot, Ruby. JAMES EDWARD BAKER No one knows this tall, courteous cadet intimately. Perhaps his ambition to own a big library explains where he finds companionship. —That twinkle in his eyes, however, shows that he observes life at first hand and has thoughts of his own. Edward doubtless thinks that at V. P. I. a uniform and a dignified manner will offset curly hair, blue eyes, and pink cheeks. : Cadet Corps. 19

THE MARSHALLITE. ANN MERIWETHER ANDERSON School activities are divided into three parts: those trivial, those with Ann's finger in the pie, and those with her foot in it. We blue-pencil the first class. The second contains many a success. The third! Oh, the third! and thereby hangs a tale. A popular miss, too! Many a manly heart flutters when Vice-President Senior Class, Vice-Presi- dent Girls’ High School Club, Associate Editor Recorp, Class Prophet, Patriotic Club, Athletic Association, Pep Club. RICHARD A. ANGLE Popularity sticks to Dick like the stain on Lady Macbeth’s hand; he can’t get tid of it! To continue our classical allusions, our modern ‘‘Coeur de Lion” cried not for a horse but a kingdom, and reigned over the operetta, ‘Bulbul,’ in a way worthy of his famous predecessor. Business Manager ANNUAL, Advertising Manager Recorp, Manager Track Team. DAVID F. APPLE David has made himself well-known at John Marshall by his good-natured disposition. He is just as accommodating as any one could possible be, and, if you should ask him to do something for you, you may feel sure that it will be done willingly and with a smile. We extend to him our hearty wishes for success. CHARLES LUNSFORD AYRES Oh, yes; he has a “pull” with the teachers, especially a certain teacher. And he surely is friendly with the gentle Sex. Charlie hails from Ginter Park and, as many of the faculty will testify, is an adept at that pleasant and popular art of getting the highest marks with the least possible effort. Here's good luck and best wishes to a loyal Marshallite.

THE MARSHALLITE. 20 EMMA POWERS BALL Of course you all know Emma, the vivacious, yet quiet, blue-eyed Senior. Emma is one of our most active class- mates. Gifted with musical talent, filled with an unusual amount of “pep” and school spirit, her unfailing enthusiasm, friendly smile, and ready wit have made her one of the most popular girls in John Marshall. Athletic Association. HELENA LANGHORNE BARRETT In the last four years certain Mar- shallites have found a true friend. Every one who knows Helena associates her name with frankness. Probably because she says just what she thinks, she will always hold a place in our memory. We can only wish as many Marshallites have been wished before, that she will make as many friends in the future as she has at old John Marshall. Girls’ High School Club. ROBERT L. C. BARRET. Jr. There are some of us cut ‘out for salesmen, you know; While other were made for delivering pie. On the whole our ambitions were rather low, And the reality didn’t turn out so high. But Robert's a fellow who's bent on a task That rivals the lark in its heavenward flight. ‘Tis literature, if to know, you should ask: And we're sure that Barret can do it all right. Record Staff, Class Poet, Ahtletic Association. PITZHUGH BARTOL When in the future we turn the pages of the “Book of Success,” we shall be sure to find “Fitz” written in red ink. He has never conducted very much of a campaign against feminine hearts (not in the open at least), but he has certainly scored a victory in acquiring friends among the faculty and the masculine members of the student body.
