JESSE COLEMAN BEAN “String “C. B Football I, III, IV; Basket Ball I, II, III; Track III; Monogram Club II, III, IV (President IV); Science Club III; Crystal Staff IV. “String” is that tall, good-looking boy who wanders around the halls with an air of innocence — usually found up to another of his harmless (?) pranks. An all-around athlete and a good student, he is well liked by everyone and with that good-natured and fun-loving attitude, he has kept the school anything but dead! “C. B.” is quite the ladies’ man and in that “lizzie” he is ready for anything! Three cheers for the boy who is tops in athletics, studies and the social world. MARY ELIZABETH BLACK “Liz “Libby Executive Committee II, III, IV; Library Club I, II; Hi-Y Club III, IV; Hall of Fame IV. If you have a problem to solve, the logical person to see is “Liz.” She is always ready and willing and usually has the right answer. Although “Liz” is rather quiet, she can often be found in the midst of a laughing group of girls (?) who share her enjoyment over a new style hat or another moron joke. “Liz” is a strong supporter of the good-neighbor policy, and so we know she will succeed in whatever she attempts. NANCY WOODRUFF BLACK “Bane “Goat Glee Club I, II, HI, IV; Dramatic Club HI, IV; French Club II, HI, IV; Camera Club I. Crash! Bang! Boom! Who else could it be but “Bane” in the chemistry lab! “Auburn” is another one of those army brats but is really considered a Georgia cracker. She is also a topnotch equestrienne and is now really learning how to play polo. “Bane” also likes other phases of V. M. I. — but maybe that’s because it’s the “West Point of the South.” Au revoir Nantes et bonne fortune! BETSY ANN BROWN “Bets “Babs Glee Club I, II, HI, IV; Library Club I, II, HI, IV; Dramatic Club IV; Dilettante Club IV; Crystal Staff IV. Everyone knows and loves “Bets” because she is one of L. H. S.’s sweetest and best-looking girls! Those big brown eyes charm everyone, including V. M. L, W. L. and her one and only! And she is Fort Pierce’s Eighteenth Division pin-up girl, tool Even though it is time to give up good old L. H. S., she’ll be in the hearts of lots of underclassmen. Bye for now, “Bets,” and best of luck always. 8

HERBERT EMORY AGNOR, Jr. “ . Buddy ' ’ President of Class II, III; President of Student Body IV; Executive Committee I; Crystal Staff III, IV; Hall of Fame II, HI, IV; Glee Club IV; Football IV; Basket Ball I. The boy who has plenty of that “gray matter” — that’s “H. E.” He is a special friend of everyone (teachers inclusive) and is always willing to help anyone out of a tight spot. “H. E. ” can always be found in a joyful mood, topped by that “con- tagious smile” which leaves everyone in a better frame of mind. Best of luck, “H. E.,” we’re all with you. CHARLES HAROLD LAUCK, Jr. “Chassy” Sonny” President of Class IV; Honor Court (Chairman) IV; Bond Committee (Chair- man) HI; Crystal Store I, II; Basket Ball I, II, HI, IV (Captain IV); Baseball I (Manager); Track HI, IV; Monogram Club II, HI, I (Secretarv HI, IV’); Science Club HI; Glee Club IV. “Chassy” is the person with that “man-about-school” look! He is very sincere in his duties as president of the class, and although he is a star procrastinator, he takes his class work seriously. Outstanding on the basket ball court, his steadiness has meant much to the team. Best of luck, “Chassy,” you deserve it. JAMES MALCOLM ADAIR Jimmy” Adar” Football I, II, HI, IV; Monogram Club II, HI, IV; French Club HI; Science Club HI, IV; Hall of Fame III, IV. Jimmy has always been an outstanding boy in our class. He has been for us that rarely found (but much sought after) combination of best looking and football hero. There is always much fun afoot with Jimmy and plenty of women in his life! Our hats are off to you, Jimmy, and we all wish you success and a bright future. PHYLLIS WHITE AGNOR Phyllis” Twyllis” Glee Club I, HI, IV (Vice President); Library Club I, II, HI, IV; French Club IV; Dilettante Club IV; Crystal Staff IV. Take one slim, auburn-haired girl, add a dash of vigor and vitality, stir in a sincere effort to perform every task that is placed before her, season well with the ability to make friends, and mix thoroughly. That’s the recipe for our “Twyllis.” We shall miss her smiling face at L. H. S., Isut we can be sure she will be making the top ranks at Madison. Favorite pastime: listening to Tommy Tucker’s orchestra. Wonder why?!

RAYBURN CHITTUM Along with several others of our class, Rayburn left us in the middle of the year for the Army. Yet we shall remember him for a long time to come for the grand friend he was to everyone. And, no doubt, he’ll go far in the Army — and some day develop his scientific hankerings into something really great. So here’s hoping that his am- bitions and romance(!) will take Rayburn just where he wants! JAYNE HATHAWAY COSBY Jayne ' ’ Glee Club I, III, IV; French Club HI, IV. Jayne is the teacher’s pride and joy, in that she always studies and knows her lessons. Along with all her success in school work, Jayne is a sweet girl and is liked by all. We are proud of her and are sure she’ll be just as successful when she attains her ambition to teach school. Best of luck, Jayne! PEGGY JOANN DANIEL “ o” Executive Committee I; Crystal Staff (Editor-in-Chief) IV; Hall of Fame II, HI, IV; Glee Club I, II; Basket Ball I, HI, IV; Cheer Leader II, III, IV; Hi-Y Club IV; Aeronautics Club HI. Looking for the most athletic girl at L. H. S., that’s “Jo” — dark blond hair, sparkling eyes, and a winning smile. Along with her athletic skill, her trustworthiness and dependability have won her many friends and responsible positions. Add to this her sense of humor and you have “Jo,” one who has found a special place in our hearts and who is bound to succeed wherever she goes. MARVIN LEWIS DAVES “ Marvelous” Basket Ball I, HI, IV; Science Club HI, IV; Crystal Staff (Photography Editor) IV; Crystal Store IV. Who is in the middle of every crowd.? That’s right — “Marvelous Marvin” — usually heard murdering his latest dose of “corn.” He is always around to lend a helping hand in studies— a great addition to any classroom (ask Miss Hamilton). His “curly locks’’ and winning personality will long be remembered by all who meet him. Best of luck in medicine! 4 . 9
