MILDRED NICELY Senior Play ’30. “Gentle in manner, firm in reality.” Mildred has, in her quiet way, endeared her- self in the hearts of her classmates. Always smiling-, always willing to help, for these rea- sons and because of her sweet personality the whole class joins in saying good luck and may everything in life be as easy for you as Math. BENJAMIN HUGER Secretary Class B ’28; Sergeant-at-Arms ’27; Senior Play ’30. “An air of good humor always sur- rounds him.” Among that faithful Class of ’30 stands one of the most distinguished gentlemen of I. H. S., Mr. Huger. “Benny’s” kind personal- ity and winning ways will be greatly missed by us all. We all wish you the best of luck in V. M. I. ISOBEL PULLEN Critic English Club 27, ’28; Chorus ’25, ’26, ’28; Hall of Fame ' 27, ’30; Senior Play ’30. “But still her tongue ran on, the less of weight it bore with greater care.” Isobel has gained great popularity among her classmates through her wit. For the last four years she has been a member of the Hall of Fame. This year she was outstanding in the Class Play as “Mooney.” Isobel expects to enter College in the fall where we all hope she meets with success. LOUISE FAUBER Secretary Class ’25; Chorus ’26, ’28; Senior Play ’29. “The only w r ay to have a friend is to be one.” “Pat’s” ready smile and sunny disposition have made her one of the most likable girls in L. H. S. In addition to her ability to make friends she has talent along histronic lines, as was showrn by her portrayal of “Mrs. Jane Kinney” in the “Country Cousin.” Good luck. Louise, and may you find much success at Richmond Medical, your next adventure. Page thirteen

SENIOR CLASS HISTORY September 9, 1926, was not regarded as an eventful day in L. IT. S. until we proved by our record in all phases of activities that it was an event when the present Seniors first entered the sacred portals o f the Anne Smith Academy. Under the kindly and maternal guidance of Mrs. Tardy, we established several high ideals which we have endeavored to carry out. The happy-go- lucky spirit of our class preeminent from the beginning, did not keep us from giving the best that was in us when called upon by the school for any favor. In our Sophomore year we planted a class tree, Pluto by name. The tree was named according to our reputation for that year. Our class has had its finger in the pie in all phases of school activities. Each year rve were called upon by the Crystal and Echo staffs. This year under the editorship of Julia Desha the Echo has been very successful. We have had stars in all the athletics. The football team of 1929 expe- rienced one of the most successful seasons in the history of the school under the captaincy of Charlie Straub. For the first time since the introduction of girls’ basketball, the team, under the leadership of Frances Morris, carried off the entire honors of the basketball season. The versatility of the Senior Class was proA’ed by the selection of the entire cast of the Senior play from its members. Farewell to L. H. S. and all the good times r e have had within its eight 3.0 CS. Page fifteen
