MORT SALUTATION In the years far ahead When our goals we ' ve all made, We won ' t think of the cares that have clouded a day Or the dreams, idle tears have long washed away. But we ' ll think of those things which have meant more to us . . . Which have brought to us courage to face All of life ' s foolish foes that weaken our pace. We ' ll think of our school and the pleasures we shared, And the work that we did, And the work we were spared. Then we ' ll hold high our heads And smile as we say, We salute you, dear Morrison, we love you today! Mary Alice Waters, ' 37 .

EMILY YOUNG GAYLE In all the country round A truer friend cannot be found.” We will all miss Emily with her cheerful smile and manner.

He is never in a rush or hurry but he always seems to get there. ADELAIDE ALLAN RICHARDSON Adelaide Stylish, vivacious, lovable — all of these adjectives will describe Adelaide.

MADISON RUSSELL Madison Madison is one of the boys of the Senior Class whom we know will suceed. He is full of life and makes friends wherever he is. JOHN FRANKLIN SNYDER Jack The way not to fail is to deter- mine to succeed.” May this modest and most orig- inal boy who leaves an excel- lent scholastic record have the success that he is rightfully en- titled to. ALICE VIRGINIA TRAYLOR Jimmy If you knew ' Jimmy’ as I know ’Jimmy’ — oh! oh!” Jimmy is a timid, shy, reserved girl, and the man-hater of our class. During her four years with us she has made many friends. VIRGINIA LORRAINE TURLINGTON Sadie Golden hair, sparkling blue eyes, and an ever-ready smile would be noticed by the casual observ- er. But those of us who are better acquainted with Lorraine know that the picture would not be complete without mention of her sterling qualities, friendliness and generosity. ROBERT EDWARD WARE Bobby A sound mind in a sound body.” Bobby is one of Morrison ' s out- standing athletes. He excels in football and is a very capable baseball and basketball player.

Her charming ways have won for her a host of friends at M. H. S. FORRESTINE LORRAINE WHITAKER Peck Once a pal , always a pal.” When the Freshman roll was called back in the fall of ' 33, Forrestine was here to answer and has been here ever since, as a worthy friend and a good stu- dent. Peck is our most typical Senior girl and she really de- serves this title. MARY FRANCES WHITE Eight ball” Take everybody’s advice; then do as you please.” We feel that Frances deserves great credit for her school work which she has finished in less than the average time. She is of a most affable disposition and has many admirers among her classmates. WILMEH LINWOOD WILBERN Dill Pickle He that hath knowledge spareth his words.” Dill Pickle is quiet and digni- fied, and he is a great scholar. We have all enjoyed having him as a fellow student. When he leaves Morrison we will lose one of its best students. 10 DOROTHY LEE WILCOX Dot A tender heart, a will inflexible.” Dot is one of our merriest Sen- iors and one of the few who is always prompt in doing her work. Ask her for advice or aid in any way and you ' re sure to get it. In spite of her abundant red hair, her temper is of the best. THE PORT OF OUR GOAL The graduating class of 1937 is greatly indebted to Morrison High School, Faculty and Board, for their coop- eration and assistance. Their every kindness is appreciated and their effort to aid us to attain the goal for which we have toiled long and earnestly. In September 1933 a very large and uncomfortable as well as timid Freshman Class embarked on the Good Ship High School for the first trip of the year itinerary. After the dreaded initiation was over and Warner McPhail had been elected captain, the time passed gaily and eventfully. Every Freshman tried to be subordinate to his superior shipmates; consequently lots of them attended the Sophomore and Junior parties. The time came all too soon to disembark for the three months summer furlough. Rested and refreshed again, we embarked as Sopho- mores, fewer in number than our Freshman Class, with Wilmer Wilbern as skipper and a new class of Freshmen behind us on whom we promptly emphasized our superi ority by initiating them. To create excitement for this year the Crigler Minstrel appeared on board, as well as one of Mr. Mod ' s musicals. Much arduous labor was put forth by not a few of the Sophomores towards the success of both of these ventures in entertainment. The year sped by on wings and we soon found our- selves with another furlough ahead. Our captain for the third trip was Warner McPhail, who guided us over the treacherous shoals of raising money to entertain the Seniors. This labor did not prove to be very arduous and was followed by a much enjoyed banauet and dance. During the struggle we, the Juniors, acquired our rings, a binding symbol of our friendship. At the conclusion of this trip we found ourselves tired but happy, facing the last year together. How different this class, in September 1936, the second largest graduating class in the history of the school, looked marching up the gang plank, in comparison to the timid Freshmen they were only four years earlier. Immediately Roscoe Bowers was promoted to the rank of captain. The joy of joys was ours, for we were to be the firs f class to graduate from the new long-expected and recently launched ship. Although the old bark held memories pre- cious to us all, we eagerly took possession the first of October. This last trip was about half over when a tender came alongside and all hands were called to the quarter deck, where an officer read from a book the orders from the Board of Education, All pupils on board must take the mid-term examinations. For days after this visit groups of boys and girls could be seen on deck eagerly scanning notes and textbooks. Soon this excitement passed and we began again to enjoy the whirlwind of fun in which the Seniors live. Land ho, cries the watch from his perch in the crow ' s nest, and everyone rushes to the rail, but alas, we must first report to the division officers on the quarter deck before coming to anchor in the harbor. After a mighty struggle, we at last find ourselves sadly marching for the last time down the gangway with our diplomas secure in our seabags. Sad though we are at parting, we are proud and happy that we have at last reached the port that was our goal, Graduation. Dorothy Curtis, ' 37. FAMILIAR NAMES IN PRINT In my leisure hours, as head librarian at the Con- gressional Library, I glanced through the November 26, 1950 issue of the New York Times, carrying glaring headlines, President Bradshaw Leaves for Peace Conference in Spain. I read further that he was accompanied by three of his cabinet members: Emily Gayle, Secretary of State, Warwick Marshall, Secretary of War, and John Pollock, Secretary of Navy. In another column I read, Harvard Confers Degrees. Elmo Bloxom received a Ph.D. in mathematics and Warner McPhail a special degree in art. I noticed, too, that Edgar Hoover ' s job in heading the G-men had been taken over by Bob” Dudley, his chief assistant being Harry Atkinson. Tornado Hits Florida. The highest wind in ages, ac- companied by heavy rainfall, completely demolished the Spanish villa of Mary Alice Waters, who cartooned Madi- son Russell ' s articles on Happy Homemaking. ' ' The orange groves of Opal Haughton and Pearl Owens were also damaged considerably. Commencement Exercises for Butter-Barnhart Hos- pital. Superintendent of nurses, Dorothy Curtis, in a very dignified manner, assisted by Head Surgeon Nell Cochran, presented diplomas to a class of fifty. Under the heading, Home Economics Instructor U Resume Duties, I read, Having completed a tour of Europe, Mary Barclay, home economics instructor at Co- lumbia College, will resume her duties immediately. Popular Night Spots. The exclusive Astor Night Club, Roy Dolan, proprietor, has become one of the most popu- lar night clubs in New York Society; playboy Robert Ware is it best customer. Reading the Wall Street stock quotations I noticed the item Stocks Soar.” Well-known financier, Roger Auman, nresident of General Motors, has bought out the Henry Ford Automobile Manufacturing Company. Sports — Heavyweight Sensation Scores Again. Lee Hawley, outstanding heavyweight champion, has never lost a fight since turning professional. His latest victory was broadcast last night from Madison Square Garden. Best Sellers — Mildred Elkins, Arlyn Abbott, and Ra- chel Parker are joint publishers of that popular magazine entitled How to Get Your Man. Next I saw the radio program of the week. Station BVM — Monday, 8: 00 P. M., Dick Hunter, popular bari- tone crooner, will sing the latest song hit — Auld Lang Syne. Station ICE — Tuesday, 9: 00 P. M., Lorraine Turl- ington, prima donna of the Metropolitan Opera, will sing passages from La Boheim. Station JSV — Wednesday 6: 30 P. M. Aubrey Robertson and Charles Hartman will give you the week ' s news. Under the classified ads, I noticed Forrestine Whit- aker was advertising a home for dogs and she had listed as her present enrollment 3,000. Browsing through more papers, I picked up the Los Angeles News and under theatrical news I read, Bell-hop Gets Promotion. Stuart Fuller, former bell-hop at the Carl- ton Hotel, is now rusher in th Universal Theater, Los Angeles, where on the stage is Maurice Hawley with his Rhythm Rhapsody Revue, featuring Irene Butterworth, sta- tap dancer — generally known as the Giddy Blonde. At this same theatre next week Klyne Cox, Dorothy Wilcox and Adelaide Richardson, who have taken the place of the Boswell Sisters on the radio, will make a personal ap- pearance. Also: Latest Dance Hit — Double Time, The second Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, none other than Jack Preston and Alice Traylor will be seen at the Chinese Theatre Monday night doing their latest novelty number, Double Time. Actress Barely Escapes Death. Mary Frances White Paramount ' s latest screen find, narrowly escaped death today when her automobile, driven by her chauffeur, Wil- mer Wilbern, ran off a steep embankment near this city. Display of Latest Styles in English Tweeds. A pic- ture on the fashi on page, bearing the above title, was ot Bob Dunn, streamline model for Esquire, showing what the well-dressed young man should wear. I noticed further, Livestock Prices Boom. Roscoe Bowers, big cattleman in Arizona, and friend wife, the re- sult of a trip to the Texas Centennial, were making large shipments of cattle daily to the Snydow Meat Packing Corporation, in Chicago. Reading under the Los Angeles Brief, I saw that Ruth Hostetter has settled down to the quiet life of matron in a home for young girls over forty. Grand Opera — Henry Rogers, latest Metropolitan Opera Singer, will be heard every Monday night at 6: 00 P. M., over station LAB, singing his famous theme song, Each Night As I Lay on My Pillow. I had browsed until I was sleepy. Closing my eyes, I had visions of former days at old Morrison High School and the dear classmates of which I had read. Katherine Edwards, ' 37. CREED The time for each of us to go forth and make a place for himself in life is nearing all too quickly. However, it is be- cause of our beliefs that we will be able to do this. First and Supremely, we believe in God our Creator and Preserver. We believe in our United States of America, the greatest country in the world. To it we pledge our wholehearted and undying allegiance. Also to the Old Dominion State, Virginia, we pledge our love and support. Then, we believe in our school where we have received the basis education which will enable us to accomplish our aims in life. Our principal, Mr. Mort, who has believed in us and constantly urged us onward deserves our sincerest appre- ciation. We believe in the teachers and instructors who have worked so hard to implant in us the fundamentals of edu- cation and fair play. To them we are deeply indebted. And last, we believe in our own, the Senior class. We are convinced that those who have worked together for these last four years will conscientiously assume his position and responsibility in life. Because of these beliefs we are nearer our goal. Warner McPhail, ' 37 .
