Kennel Kapers of the Klass of 30 At last we were in the doghouse, and there never was a more scared bunch of pups. We were scared of that awful creature that the brave old dogs called Fessor’; we were scared of the trainers; we were scared of all the big dogs; and we were scared of the other puppies from Lawrenceville, Charhe j Jope. Ebony, Valentine, Dolphin and Brodnax. Soon though our special trainers. Miss Hawthorne, Miss Lowery, and Mrs. Witten, got us started, and we settled down to work as the freshman pups of L. H. S. We went for a run to Richmond and Williamsburg; we started a stage curtain fund; we had a picnic; some of us even managed to join the Latin Club, Library Club and 4-H Club, and then all of a sudden we were the big sophomore pups. As big puppies we were allowed to run about the kennel, and we took advantage of the opportunity. We found out that being chained up in de- tention hall wasn’t so bad, and we really gave Miss Lashley, Miss Powell, and Mr. Darden a time with our fights. Some of the female pups joined the newly organized A. A. and made lots of money at the Saturday night parties. The feminine pups started taking Home Ec. and joined the F. H. A. and the males joined the F. F. A. and the forces of the fighting Bulldogs. The person we had so respectfully called Mr. Jones our freshman year, we got up nerve enough to call Fessor.” We thought we were really hotdogs”, but an occasional nip or growl from the big dogs reminded us that we still had a long way to go. Our Junior year we began to howl for some recognition, and we began our training as leaders when we were inducted with ceremony into the Beta Club, the Tri-Hi-Y and Hi-Y. We found out again what it was to be scared in Coach Lusardi’s math classes; we discussed everything from clauses to communism in Mr. Settle’s English class; Mrs. Jones listened to our whinings and troubles in Spanish and history classes and we got into trouble at activity sic.
