orewor- The Cycle contains for the most part merely a record of the morning exercise” period of five or ten minutes a day in the home room” of the Senior Class. As you glance through this book you will see that the Seniors of 193 6 were engaged in various kinds of activities: discussing characteristics necessary for building a perfect character, telling favorite jokes, naming favorite books and heroes, writing descriptions of each other, writing spring poems, voting for superlatives,, formulating creeds, and last, but by no means least, discussing ways and means for the publication of this book. The members of the class wish to express their thanks and appreciation for the sup¬ port given the financial side of their undertaking by the students and faculty and by the many business men whose advertisements have been a substantial aid in the publi¬ cation of The Cycle. Especially do they wish to thank Mr. Delk and Mrs. Whitehead for the help given them in securing advertisements in Lynchburg, Lovingston, and Charlottesville. F. D.

REBA FITZPATRICK LEA Hollins College Columbia University University of Virginia Appreciation Of the whole of the Senior Class of 193 6, I think I have the highest honor of them all. For my character sketch is of our home room teacher, Mrs. Lea. Miss Reba is rather small. She is about five feet three and one-half inches tall and weighs about 130 pounds. Her hair is dark brown and her eyes are brown. She is a good sport, grand teacher, and loved by every pupil in school. The whole Senior Class has treated her like she is a pupil, too. She shares our joys, our sorrows, our victory, our defeat, and she struggles through the hard spots with us as we work on for our last great moment. We have many jokes on her. But I won’t begin to tell them all. She wears her glasses far down on her nose and peeps at you over them. In one of our math, classes about three years ago, Miss Reba came rushing in, up in the air, because she could not find her glasses. Every one in class looked at her sort of funny and laughed. She hurried out to look in all of the rooms she had taught in, thinking maybe they were there. She came back and still no glasses. One member of the class said through fits of laughter, Mrs. Lea, you have your glasses on.” Sure enough, there were her glasses pushed up on her forehead. We all love her and to some she is Mrs. Lea. To others, Miss Reba. But to me she will always be Aunt Reba, one of the best teachers I’ve ever been to. Tompkins Strother.
