Edward Steidtman, Jr. Football, ' 24 ; Captain Football, ’25 ; Baseball, ’24-’25 ; Presi- dent Junior Class, ' 25; President Senior Class, ' 26; Presi- dent of Student Body, ' 26 ; Senior Play, ’26. Give me the moonlight, give me the girl, And leave the rest to me. Hailing from Wisconsin, “Ed” joined the Class of ' 26 as a Sophomore. Frequently, perhaps, his thoughts have wandered back to his old haunts, yet he has stayed on and made his mark here. As an athlete, he has shown great ability, as the mainstay on the baseball diamond, and as the captain of the football squad. Moreover, his genius for leadership was recognized by the student body when they chose him as their president. In, addition to these honors, Steidtman starred in the class play. If you make friends as fast in the future as you have made them here, “Ed, we are sure of a great success in your chosen profession, whatever it may be. Many persons, especially ihose of the fair sex, will miss you, Big Ed.” Mildred McCoricle Dunlap The Echo Staff, ' 24; Chorus, ' 26; Secretary Class, ' 26; Hall of Fame, ' 25; The Crystal Staff, ' 26; Stage Manager Class Play, ' 26. “Hang sorrow ! Care will kill a cat.” Mildred is one of our big Seniors in more than one sense of the word. She is a good sport, warm-hearted, and gen- erous. To say “Mil is capable is not sufficient, for in addi- tion to this, she has organizing and executive ability. She isn’t serious ; O, no ! She has wit, originality, and a sense of humor — the last of which is always getting her into trouble (“Cuckoo,” for instance). Mildred’s competent work as stage director for the class play proved all these things, and more, true about her. After receiving her much longed- for diploma in June, this member of our class expects to finish her education at Hollins. [ 8 ]

Ethel Olivia Ayres Executive Committee, 23 ; Chorus, 23, ' 24, ' 25 ; Senior Play, ' 26; Vice-President Woodrow Wilson Literary Society, ' 26. “Where there’s a will, there ' s a way. Another one of the “sharks” of L. H. S. is leaving us. Ethel has succeeded so well in her high school career that everybody — even the faculty who are hard to please — expect great things of her. This loyal and studious member of our class showed her school spirit and dramatic ability by taking, upon a few hours notice, an important role in the class play, Come Out ot the Kitchen.” In the near future Ethel may be found in a school- room, imparting her knowledge to the youth of the land. “Mandy,” we wish you the best of luck in teaching, your chosen profession. Susanna Randolph Blain The Echo Staff, ' 25, ’26; Hall of Fame, ' 24, ’25, ' 26; Class Play, ' 26 ; Chorus, ' 25, ' 26. “A dancing shape, an image gay To haunt, to startle, to waylay.” ' Tis said that “precious things come in small packages” — and this fits “Sue.” Though small, Susanna does big things. In her junior year, she made herself useful as a member of The Echo Staff and did her work so well that she was made School Notes Editor for ' 26. She proved her histrionic abil- ity by her excellent interpretation of Araminta in Come Out of the Kitchen,” while in the operetta, she shone as a dancing girl. Last year the election for the Hall of Fame gave “Sue” the distinction of being the biggest flirt in the school and also the second prettiest girl. As one of her friends has expressed it, “Sue’s” three besetting sins are dancing, flirting, and — “Charlie.” We venture to predict that in the near future she will overcome the first two, but we can not prophesy as to the third. Charles Hyde Davidson “There wasn’t a minute When Charlie wasn’t in it.” No one would ever accuse “Doc” of being a big man, but fortunately no one can measure a man by his size. To some he appears tremendously silly, to others he is screamingly clever, and to the rest he seems slightly insane. He is not totally unacquainted with work, but when play comes along, “Doc is far more in his element and is an, expert in devising means for enjoying himself. Since he is a persistent talker, little persuasion was needed to interest him in the county declamation contest, and as a winner, he displayed unusual ability. Charles has a remarkable disposition which makes him easy to know and very hard to forget. His many friends at L. H. S. extend to him sincere wishes for his future success and happiness, and they would suggest that his profession be a.ong oratorical lines. Geneva Boggan Firebaugh Chorus, ’23-’26, Senior Play, ’26. “The world’s no better if we worry; Life’s no longer if we hurry.” “What did you say?” and Geneva listens attentively. Pos- sibly because of this small streak of inquisitiveness, she has been successful in her high school career, and always comes out on top. Don’t, however, get the impression that “Bog- gan” is a “book worm, for she is far from it. Her pleasing personality and cheerful smile have won for her a number of friends. She gets all the fun possible out of life, puts much into it, and manages to combine work with play. Geneva was a decided success in the class play, and we cannot help but pre- dict a bright future for anyone with her ability. May you reach your goal at Hollins, Geneva !
