Associate Editor of The Cub, '2-l: l reshman Review, '2Ii: Treas- urer Tar Heel History Club, '25-'26, Roscoe is about as quiet as can be found. He never raises a racket, even when a stiff exam is scheduled or something equally disturbing happens. In short, he believes in work for work's sake. He goes out from this high school with our belief that he will make good.

That's Pete Graney. Pete is a friend in all the athletic games. He is popular with the boys and especially liked by several young ladies who think of him as their ideal. niPEqxEsr HELEN GUTHRIE - ON HER BROW NATURE HAS WRITTEN-LADY.

Pleasant to be with! She's studious, consistent, and interesting. If she meets her life tasks with the same enthusiasm she has met her school tasks, she will make a record that many would be proud to have. HELEN RACHEL HANCOCK THE GIRL WDRTHWHILE IS THE GIRL WHO CAN SMILE WHEN EVERYTHING GOES DEAD WRONG. Students Council, '241 Literary Society, '24: Treasurer Draiuatic Club, '25: Reporter English Club, '2ti: Librarian. Here's to the girl who works and works and keeps smiling in the face of it all. She makes good marks on her lessons, and is always ready to try anything to help N. B. H. S. She is quiet and unassuming, but she has proved one of our most loyal members, and we couldn't do without her. We are hoping great things for Rachel, and judging from her career in N. B. H. S., our hopes will be fulfilled. RACHEL KTWENTY-SEVEBH

Have you ever been to any of our Athletic games? Well! I'm sure you fell-because-doesn't everybody fall for Emmett, girls especially? He's certainly our outstanding athlete. We often wonder why so many girls are seen with him. He doesn't talk much and therefore can't shoot the girls a line, well, maybe that's the reason-we're all tired of hearing ever- lasting lines, and are attracted by our indifferent- LAMUTEII LILLIAN CAMPBELL FOY FAII': MAIDEN, WHEN I LOOK AT THEE, I WISH I COULD BE YOUNG AND FREE.

When Sis steps out you can't keep from falling. What would a dance be without her? Yes, she really is a dancing girl, but that's not all, she's a good basketball player. Always smiling, boys love her, girls do, too. All of this and a lot more make up our good ole pal. KASISYY OPAL LINDLEY GASKINS I KNOW YOU HAVE A GENTLE, NOBLE TEMPER. A SOUL AS EVEN AS CALM.

She is one of the smartest girls in our class and if there is a job so hard that no one else can quite manage, why- Opal can do it. She's seldom heard in a crowd, but goodness, how she does lake in the 1's and 2's-blessed exemp- tion grades! And with all that, she is a friend to everyone, but we won't finish, time will do it for us. OPAL
