[ 36 ] Senior Poem Past arc the days of childhood joy, Ahead arc the doors of life, Full of its troubles and heartaches sad, With endless years of strife. But happiness too awaits us there. And fun that shines through sorrow; We’re beginning our life all over again. In the realms of the great tomorrow. We’ll fight our way and carve our names On the highest peak of success, And when we accomplish our best of all, We’ll have reached the end of our quest. Luck we’re wishing for the ’30 class, With joy and health untold, “In action faithful, in honor clear,” These are treasures greater than gold. — D. M. T., Jr. [ 37 ] Class History • HE first trip of the class of ' 30 through the “Land of Education” has come to an end. The road lias been long, the way steep ; yet the summit has been reached, and we are now ready to look out across the world which awaits us. Four years ago, in the fall of ’26, a group of passengers set out from station Freshmanville on board the “Lane High Express.” The engineer, Ed Adams, fireman, Laurence Matacia, with their assistants, Bertha Mitchell, as brakeman, and Mary Livers, as conductor, guided the first car safely through to station Sophomore. There, a second car was added and a new crew was brought on board. This time with Hugh Hawkins and Nell Dickinson as the leaders, assisted by Ed Adams and Laurence Matacia, more ground was covered and the town of Juniorville was finally reached. The grade began to steepen and the way seemed longer. The engineer, Jefferson Hiltner, struggled bravely but at last on account of sickness was forced to leave the train. The clouds grew blacker and for a time trouble blocked the way. Then the fireman, Nell Dickinson, took control and finally brought the train safely through the storm to the sunny city of Seniorville. At Seniorville a fourth car and a fresh crew were taken on. Laurence Brunton, with the ever ready aid of Mr. Walker, steered the train over the hardest climb of all to the summit where the terminal Graduation greeted the tired but happy travelers. The last year has been an especially happy one. The newspaper depart- ment has faithfully discharged its duties. The Midway Student, with Laurence Matacia as editor, and the Bumble Bee, with Josephine Matthews as leader, helped to lighten the cares and brighten the hours on the long journey. The Chain, headed by Nell Dickinson, and the last edition published before the terminal was reached, brought the news department to a successful end. So we, the class of ’30, have completed the first lap of our journey. Some of us will board the train “College Education,” and others the train “Business and Professional Service.” Whichever train we now enter we will all later meet at the station of the “United States Citizens and Law- makers.” [ 38 ] Senior Will E, the Senior class of ’30, Lane High School, Charlottesville, Vir- ginia, being of a large size and having a supposedly sufficient quan- tity of brainy matter do now choke on and only authentic will of our class. prune and cough up the one First, to our sorely heset principal and faculty we leave a most grati- tudinous appreciation for having passed 11s through the various stages of our metamorphosis. To our devoted advisor and sponsor, Mr. H. H. Walker, we leave a hope that he will some day obtain a Ph. D. We also leave him a book on how to make college math adaptable, understandable, and interesting to high school pupils. To the class of ’31 we leave the basement of our school with the desire that someday a school will be built over it. We leave Miss Lucy T. Jones a model Latin class done in white wax and a beautifully bound volume in vellum containing the original manuscripts of Caesar ' s, Virgil’s, and Cicero ' s works. To Miss Buford we leave the book, “How to Keep Your Class on the Subject,” and a roll of adhesive tape to bind up the mouths of her pupils who just will wisecrack about all her statements. To Mr. Lacy we leave a fully equipped lab. for thirty people, and a book on how to make muffins while shaving for school. To our revered Mr. Blume we leave a correspondence course on “Im- proved Methods of Writing,” and an easy chair to rest his rotund form in. To our thrifty, but beloved (BY THE GIRLS), Profit we leave a pamphlet which thoroughly discusses the question, how to keep a football team from using forty-eight dollars worth of adhesive tape, and a bit of secret advice on how to keep the boys in the stand from giving the girls double value in candy. To our petite librarian, Miss Clore, we leave an alarm wrist watch to keep her from forgetting to ring the bell. To Miss Bolen we leave a strong door to put on the office so that she will be safe from intruders, a pair of Walk-over shoes to keep her from hav- [ 39 ] Hap i. ing fallen-arches because of her numerous trips about the building, and an automatic questionnaire to keep her from being beset by foolish questions. Last, but not least, we leave our beloved principal, Mr. Sulfridge, a stu- dent body that will cooperate and a celluloid collar so that his wife won’t have such a big wash to put out on Mondays. The following students, feeling sure that they have had full use of their respective talents, faults, or disfigurements, do here bestow them on their less fortunate, or otherwise, subordinates. Louise Ballard leaves her figure and pigtails to “Gin” Dinwiddie. Gordon Carter leaves his good grades to John Trevillian. Sam Holloway leaves his trait of making all the girls think he lives for them, and them only, to Ralph Britton. Alec Bender leaves his famous grin to Selden Hill. Harold Mopsik leaves his business sense to Billy Jones. Anna Dinwiddie leaves her shyness to “Wee-bit” Sneed. Ed Donnally leaves his large hoofs in care of John Etherton. “Tacky Matacia leaves his literary attainments to Fendol Carter. Charles Lang leaves his good looks to “Sot” Givens. Tom Grasty leaves his sophisticated looks to Alexander Caskie. Hugh Hawkins leaves his alert air to “Sleepy” Sulfridge. Ed Adams gives his hope of matrimony to “Firpo.” Joe Phillips leaves his distinguished air to William Schwartz. Jane Stringfellow wills her coyness to Margaret White. Mary Va. Hill leaves her love of students to Betty House. Millv Van Lear leaves her dancing ability to Myrtle Tate. Adonna Hibbert leaves her chewing motion to Polly McMurdo. Feeling that this will is complete as is, we trustingly leave as executors, “Sissy,” John Christian, Dr. Borden and Kernel Crack.

In the days of Childhood When all zvas bliss, We lived without schooling In greatest happiness. Then came the school age, And with it much zvork To get out what Wisdom In corners did lurk.

Old Father Time is moving along ; We’re moving along in his tread. To the days of Youth we’ll always belong; May we always remain in his stead. The joy of life is supremest today, As the hells of our hearts echo true ; Happiness is so great that it shall say, “Thy sorrows and troubles be few.’’ — Nell Dickinson, ' 30. 1 44 j Junior Class Orvall Marshall Lindsay Blanton Polly McMurdo Newman Harris Mr. Speidel • President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Sponsor [45 1 Junior Class Class Roll Isabelle Allegree William Alwood Esther Armstrong Glasgow Armstrong Margaret Armstrong Cabell Bailey George Bailey Virginia Barger Carrie Baylor Tommy Biggs William Bishop Garna Biakey Lindsay Blanton Frances Bowen Evelyn Brooks Agnes Br unton John Burnham Anabel Carter Fendol Carter Scott Carter Edna Clark Abraham Cohen Jack Cohen Norborne Cole William Coward Herbert Cowles Virginia Cox Alice Crawford Robert Crowder Henry Daniel Hugh Davis Virginia Dinwiddie Nancy Doner Ruth Dowdy Herbert Driscoll Lillian Driscoll Virginia Duff Joe Eddins Peyton Ellinger Tyler Estes Donald Fitzhugh Mary Gajigianis Beatrice Garrett Anderson Gleason John Grasty Eleanor Graves Jack Haden Ormand Haden Archie Hahn Frances Hamm Louis Hamm Dorothy Harbottle Mae Harlan Newman Harris Valeria Hawkins Mary Herndon Grace Herr Jean Herring Louise Holloway Charles Hulvey Billy Jones Watson Jones Olivia Kincaid Darwin King Virginia Lewis Forrest Marshall Orvall Marshall Earline Maupin Luella Maupin Dorothy Mayo Hortense McAlexander Elise McCary Mary Alice McCoy Polly McMurdo Mae Meeks Harvey Miller Forest Morris Sam Mundy Calvert Muse Elizabeth Neal Marvel Norford Peyton Norford Tom Parrot Margaret Pence Hattie Phillips Belle Pierce Frances Pirkey Henry Porter Winifred Pugh Margery Quarles Edward Reed Mary Richardson Mary Robinson Montie Robinson Hilda Ross Randolph Scantling William Schwartz Bertram Smith Rockwell Smith Russell Smith Lena Wood Sneed Leroy Snow Robert Sours Roy Southall Mason Spicer Rosabelle Sprouse Edward Stevens Elizabeth Stoneburne Violet Stribling Norris Stuffing Randall Talley Myrtle Tate Cecil Taylor Margaret Taylor Stuart Taylor Freda Thomas Constance Velle Mary Walsh Eugene Wingfield Beckwith Winn Alice Wright Mabel Wyllie Mae Zabawski [ 47 ] Ship of Life The sun shone bright upon both hill and dale. The birds were singing sweetly in the trees. There was not the slightest sign of any gale Upon the gentle bosom of the breeze. A ship was sailing, out upon the sea, Three-quarters of a mile away from shore. Her cargo was five hundred tons of tea With several dozen pearls beneath the floor. The captain felt the breeze die down behind him And recognized the signs of coming storm. “O, bo’sun, quickly get the sails in trim That we may ride it out in goodly form. Now we are like the captain and his bo’sun. Our cargo is our knowledge and desires. We must give them both our care and our protection Or lose the vital something that inspires. Let us trim our sails and batten down our hatches To help protect us from the storm of life That sinks the careless people whom it catches Unprepared to undergo its galling strife. — Gordon Carter.

Our schedule was a difficult one, hut nevertheless the team made it look easy. Our team failed to lose a state en- counter, and yet we were not considered as possible State Champions. As the teams which played in the semi-finals were picked on a percentage basis, we felt that our team, with a thousand percent, should have received more con- sideration. The team won, in all, six games, including two forfeits, tied one, and lost two, one of these to the strong Woodberry Forest team. When our coach, “Jimmie” Leitch, issued a call for football candidates, on September 3rd, about sixty possibilities reported. Twenty-five of these remained possibilities, while the rest stayed out and helped make a strong team. Eight letter men were among these thirty-five. With these as a nucleus Coach Leitch developed a strong team. Orvall Marshall was made captain of the team and proved to be a strong, capable leader. His work is especially commendable as he was handicapped all season with bad shoulders. At the end of the season sixteen men and the manager received the cov- eted “C”. A short resume of games follows, in the sequence as played : Lane High o Woodberry Forest 19 The first game of our season was played on September 25 in real summer weather. Woodberry’s line proved too powerful for us, and we failed to make a first down. The line showed lack of experience, but the team as a whole played well considering the heat, and also the fact that it was its first game. Lassiter’s returning of punts was the outstanding feature of the game. Lane High 12 V. S. D. B. 2 The second game of the season was our first home game, and the boys were out there fighting from beginning to end. A safety was scored by V. S. D. B. at the start due to a mix-up in signals. This happening seemed to be just what the boys needed, for from then on until the half they played harder and showed more spirit then they had yet shown. Blanton scored early in the [ 61 ] second quarter. From this point on Lane’s line seemed to gain power. At the start of the last quarter Marshall pushed over the second score. He failed to get the point after touchdown both times. Blanton, Yelle, and Chisholm were the principal ground-gainers, while Adams performed well at center. Lane High 7 Covington o In one of the hardest fought games ever witnessed on Venable Field, Captain Marshall’s run of sixty yards for touchdown after intercepting a Covington pass was the margin of victory for Lane. The game was hard fought throughout and at times was quite rough. Fendol Carter put Lane in a scoring position after making a beautiful catch of a pass, but with twelve yards to go and four downs to try at it, Covington’s line did not yield. Again in the third period Adams blocked a punt putting Lane in another scoring position on the five yard line, but again Covington’s line held. A determined forward pass attack by Covington near the end threw a scare into the Lane Lli ranks, but the whistle ended the game before any damage was done. Blanton, Velle, and Chisholm gained consistently for Lane, while the whole line played well. Lane High 26 LIarrisonburg o On Friday, November 1, Lane ran roughshod over Harrisonburg, smash- ing its way to a 26 — o victory. Both lines held like stonewalls at first, but at length Chisholm worked the ball over for Lane. Another touchdown was scored later in the period when Lang picked up a ball which had been blocked Blanton Makes His First Touchdown [ 62 ] by Adams. At the start of the third period the whole Lane line rushed Harris- onburg’s punter, and, as a result, “Big Ed” Donnally scored Lane’s third touchdown. On the defense Gibson and Adams, who blocked three kicks, played well, while in the backfield Stringfellow, Chisholm, and Velle shone. Lane High 19 R. M. C. F. 7 In this game Lane started off slowly and was outplayed during the first quarter. However, in the second quarter Blanton started things rolling by scoring a touchdown around end. This was made largely through the beautiful interference of Murray. Blanton scored another touchdown a little later in the period when he ran seventy-five yards after intercepting a pass. After the half Randolph-Macon came back strong and soon scored a touchdown. They were headed for another near the close of the game, but Captain Marshall, by a brilliant play, intercepted a forward pass on his own goal line and raced ninety-seven yards before being downed. He ran it over on the next play. Scott Carter and Lang played best for Lane defensively, while Blanton was the chief grouncl-gainer. Lane High o Staunton o In this game both lines showed to advantage, while the baekfields seemed to be off form. Lane’s whole line played brilliantly and time and again the bunch would rush through to down the Staunton backs behind the line. Blanton played brilliantly in the backfield until hurt, and the punting of Captain Marshall of Lane and Thomas of Staunton was the outstanding feature.

Fitzhugh’s passes and runs will be a great asset next year. Wheeler carried out the duties of center with success. Blanton’s end runs were a menace to our opponents. Adams can put the ball just where the backfielder wants it. Success next year, Ed. Donnally, a new man, did real work on both defense and offense. S. Carter was a big man doing big work. Much credit is due him. Lang has been a steady worker. His place will be hard to fill next year. Taylor ' s side-stepping fools ’em all. He’ll be back r.ext year. Armstrong is new, but he made good in every game. Stringfellow dives over the line. Good luck. Beans. Captain “Firpo ' s” experience was a great help to the team. We know lie will uphold his “rep. Velle’s injuries failed to keep his fighting spirit clown. He’s one of our best sports. Chisholm’s gains went far towards winning his first letter. Gibson goes through the lines like a “grasshopper.” F. Carter is noted for pulling down passes and break- ing up plays. Boys ' Basket-Ball Squad Boys Basket-Ball Season HE basket-ball team started off nicely, winning from Meriwether- Lewis. Then, in an exciting extra period game which ended 17-14, it defeated Bridgewater. At Harrisonburg the boys lost a game which they should have easily won. The final score was 23-17 in favor of Harrisonburg. Then Lane lost to Waynesboro, Woodberry, Staunton, and V. S. D. B. before breaking in the win column again. This was a good break because Lane won from Bridgewater, Harrisonburg and Fredericksburg in succession. The team then went over the mountain and played another slow game, losing to Waynesboro 24-17. In the next game Lane got sweet revenge, beating its old rivals from Staunton 20-19 on their floor. Then Lane lost to V. S. D. B. at Staunton. The score was 29-25. Until one of the regulars was removed Lane was leading, but after this it slowly fell back. In the final game on our schedule Lane won a rather indifferently played game from Llopewell, 28-21. The boys’ basket-ball team reached the district tournament this year but lost out in the first game to the V. S. D. B. team from Staunton 20-11. This game brought to a close a more or less irregular season in which about as many games were lost as won. However, when the boys really did their best, they were seldom beaten. [ 69 ] Taylor.

In spite of this, they had the deter- mination to win honor for Lane High School. Six letter men were back. These were Captain Anne Rea, Manager “Bully” Mitchell, “Dot” Fitch, “Lu” Manpin, “Leggy” Sandridge, and Bern- ice Robertson, r his squad was added to by the newcomers, Rosabelle Sprouse, Jane Stringfellow, Jo Matthews, Polly McMurdo, Joyce Sullivan, “Hank” Hankins, and Virginia Dimviddie. The first games of the season were practice games with St. Anne’s. Lane was victorious in both, the scores being 44-21 and 48-19. The first big game of the season was played February 6 at the Armory against Harrisonburg. This was one of the fastest and most competent games ever played in the Armory. The most outstanding star of this game was Rosabelle, who was just “giving ' em Fits.” The end of the game found Lane with the small end of the 25-23 score. As a result of defeat the girls determined to seek revenge against Harri- sonburg. On February 27, they went over the mountains with, “sweet victory” as their goal. All through the game Lane was in the lead. The whole team played a clean and fast game. Again the outstanding player was “Rosy”, who hardly missed a shot. Jane and Lu did the best guarding they have ever done since playing basket-ball. As a result of the game, Lane was victor with a score of 27 to LXarrisonburg’s 15. The last game of the season was a home game with Petersburg on March 8. In the first half, the visiting girls piled up a score of 13 to Lane’s 10. The team came back into the second half determined to fight. Every member of the team played well, but special mention should be made of the work of “Lu” and Jane. The final whistle found the score standing at 17-17. We were unable to schedule many games with other schools, but the re- sults of the games played gives the season the ranking of a successful one.

The Most Popular Teacher comes first to our view In this Mirror so clear and revealing; At Finance lie’s a wizard, and at Algebra too, And such worth will Success to him bring. Also we see a girl and a boy, Both the Most Popular here to be found. Flis popularity is a true joy, While her retinue is always around. Our Prettiest Girl is by loveliness gifted ; The “Queen of Beauty” she has been cro wned. Our Best Looking Boy to honor is lifted So that his handsomeness holds us spellbound. Best-All-Round is a name so fine That very few on earth can gain it; But we have a boy and a maiden in line, Both of whom truly attain it. Our Best Athlete is swift and strong; He excels in both great and small ; Herculean fame to him does belong For his skill as he handles a ball.

April Showers — Love s Melody A beautiful girl came tripping clown the walk Just Like a Melody Out of the Sky. Seeing a Golden Gate she entered, and there saw her Sonny Boy. He turned to his companion and asked, “Who’s That Pretty Baby?” “Diane,” was the reply. “I ' ve Got a Feeling I’m Falling, so please bring us Together.” After being introduced, they went out canoeing on Old Man River. )c -Jf “Beloved, when I saw you, I knew You Were Meant for Me. 1 know I ' m a Dreamer, but you are the Girl of My Dreams.” “1 know you don’t mean all you say” she replied, “because 1 have heard you sing Jeannine, I Dream of Lilac Time.” “That was because of my Memories of France” he answered. “This Carolina Moon isn ' t so hot, but in the Sweet Hawaiian Moonlight I could sing you a Pagan Love Song. To Make a Long Story Short, I Love You.” Then Came the Dawn. A Storm was in the air. “Come, he urged, We ' ll find our Shelter Before the Rain.” Nevertheless the rain straightened out her Little Baby Curls. ' True love never having run smooth, the lovers cpiarrelled, and she demanded that he leave. He sorrowfully replied, “Goodbye, My Honey, I’m Gone! Think of Me Thinking of You. Till We Meet Again, Someday, Somewhere. He spent several years In a Little Spanish Town, but soon tired of Happy Days and Lonely Nights, and so came Drifting Back to Dreamland to remove the Withered Roses from his Bouquet of Memories. Four or Five Times From Sunrise to Sunset he asked, “Heart O’ Mine, will you marry me?” At last she deigned to reply, I Tore Up Your Picture When You Said Goodbye, because it was Nobody’s Fault But Your Own, but I will marry you.” “That’s Music to My Ears,” he cried exultantly. “We’ll build Our Bungalow of Dreams Ten Little Miles From Town. Hereafter it will always be Mv Castle in Spain. WEDDING BELLS ! ! ! ! [ 106 ] Tom Staley wittiest Most Efficient Most Intellectual Mildred Van lean Most Stylish 5om Holloway Bi est Talker.

CHARLOTTESVILLE VIRGINIA .Oa: r.6 -gg)?5 f Opportunity . . . Yes, the word is trite. But suppose we look at it from another angle and see if it is not possessed of a new meaning. Four hundred years ago the Atlantic Ocean was an impassable barrier. To Columbus — and more recently to Lindbergh — it was opportunity. Fifty years ago electric light could be produced by drawing an arc between two carbons, but it was not safe or convenient. Edison created the type of lamp desired. In later years the demand for higher efficiency caused research workers to experiment with every known element. This work was rewarded by the production of the tungsten lamp. Twenty-five years ago only the cities had electric lights. j They were too expensive for towns, villages, and farms. Since then, by improvements in the design of power plants, transmission lines, and substations, elec- tric service has been extended to more than half the population of the United States! The obstacles to this development have become doors of opportunity to thousands of men and to many women. Every need of humanity is a challenge. It is YOUR opportunity if you can produce the desired result. Our wish for the Class of 1930 is that each one may find HIS opportunity, and having found it make the most of it.

SNEED, Proprietor FRUITS, VEGETABLES AND CAKES Wholesale Only 110 WEST SOUTH STREET CHARLOTTESVILLE VIRGINIA A GRAMMATICAL KISS A kiss is always a pronoun, because “she” stands for it. It is masculine and feminine gender mixed; therefore common. It is a conjunction because it connects. It is an interjection; at least it sounds like one. It is plural because one calls for another. It is singular because there is nothing else like it. It is usually in apposition with a caress; at any rate, it is sure to follow. A kiss can be conjugated, but never declined. It is a preposition because it governs an objective “case.” However, it is not an adjective, because it cannot be compared, but it is a phrase that expresses feeling.
