Russel of course, our beloved member, who, although many honors have been heaped upon him, remains the same un- spoiled, gentlemanly student. We give our best of wishes to you, “Cackle.” Helen Elizabeth Tolley Chorus, ' 27-29 The Country Cousin, ’29. “The only way to have a friend is to be one.” Every one agrees that Helen is a “peach” — just an all ’round sort of girl whose every thought is for others. A sweet nature and winning personality have stamped her as the person, one chooses for a friend. We’ll miss you, Helen, when you’re gone. Ollie Quaye McElroy Secretary of Senior Class, ’29 ; Chorus, ’29. “As merry as the day is long.” “Quake” is known as a pal to all. Her unselfishness and true helpful spirit have played a large part in winning her the “rep” of being a good sport in all things. Best luck to you, “Quake.” Willis Preston Mankey Treasurer of The Crystal, ’29; Senior Play, ’29. , “A friend to all who know him.” Willis is well known as “a friend in need, a friend indeed,” when there’s anything you want done, just ask Willis. With such a cheerful disposition an,d will- ingness to help, we feel sure you’ll always gain the best in life. Football, ’28; Baseball, ’29; Monogram Club, ’29; Echo, ’29; The Crystal, ’29. “Though I am young, I score to flit on the wings of borrowed wit.” No on,e could be mistaken. This is Hay- wood, the fellow with the military walk, the solemn mien, and the originator of all those sly remarks, who is always willing to help with anything and do it well, as shown by his work on The Crystal and Echo. One seldom finds a person possessing such wit, intelligence, artistic ability and good nature as Haywood. We feel a great loss with his departure. Kathleen Steele Quisenberry President Senior Class, ’29. “A penny for your thoughts.” A very quiet and reserved little person is Kathleen, but underneath it all is found a loyal, sympathetic friendliness, and a refined, pleasant manner which makes her an enjoy- able companion,. We hope you may always make as many friends as you have made here. James Waddell Marks The Three Graces, ’28; Executive Com- mittee, ’28; The Crystal, ’28-’29; Echo Staff, ’29; Senior Play, ’29. “The lion is not so fierce as they paint him.” “Now you just look what they’ve done,” comes a loud and plaintive remark from that harrassed member of our Class, James. But don’t forget that James possessed some far more creditable honors, such as taking part in the senior play and work on the Echo and The Crystal Staff. We’ll always remember you. Gladys Emeline Logan Chorus, ’28-’29. “What is mine is yours, and what is yours is mine.” In looking for a friend, sincere, sympa- thetic, and responsive to every mood, a girl endowed with a wonderfully sweet disposi- tion, you’ll find none more worthy of your affections than “Gladie.” [ 11 ]
