English Literary Club, Latin Club, Dramatic Club, HiY, High School Orchestra: Dramatic Club, '27, '29. Ernest is studious, but not too studious. His grades in his four years in N. B. H. S. are ex- cellent and he deserves much credit for his ability. Whatever he may undertake in 1ife's short journey we wish him the greatest possible success. JOHNSON LOUISE ELEANOR JONES Be true to your word. your work and your friends. President of Eighth Grade: English Club, '26, '27: Glee Club, '26, '2T: Student Council, '2T: Dramatic Club, '28: Secretary Drama Guild, '29: Help Yourself , '29, Quiet? Well, she isn't a talking machine. Studious? Nothing different. Slangy? Not in the least, though this beginning might leave such an impression. If you leave anything to Eleanor, you can depend on her to do it. That's why she was elected our most dependable girl. She is talented in dramatics as well as art, and we have found her a valuable asset to the class of '29. Here's luck to you, EI.EANoR JAMES FRANKLIN KETCHAM Ambition should have been his middle name.

'27: Class Treasurer, '28: Class Secretary, '29: Basket- ball, '28: Monogram, '28, '29: Debating Club, '29. Who is that handsome boy that can play basket- ball like a professional? That's Jimmie Ket- cham. Jimmie is a friend in all the athletic games. In his classes he is a student of no mean ability. James is an all 'round good sport and he is willing to make the period bell sound a little early if you are in trouble. Although James has only been with us during our high school days, he has proved himself a very valuable addition. The class of '29 wishes you success. HJIMMIEH ELIZABETH AUGUSTA LANCASTER Nicknames--how I abhor them. English Club, '26: Latin Club, '27: Dramatic Club, '28: Basketball, '28, '29g Drama Guild, '29: Treasurer Hi-Y, '29. Our basket-ball star, Elizabeth is usually a quiet, meek appearing person-but if you want to see her riled, call her Gussie! However, she's a good old sport and a tried and true friend -one whom we all enjoy and wish to keep. Lizzie GUS

French Club, 'ESL Elizabeth is never serious, and how can she be when she is the wittiest girl in the Senior class? She is determined to do what she wants to and if she says she'll try to do a thing she usually succeeds. When others grumble and com' p'ain, turn to Elizabeth with her ever ready smile and words of cheer, as usually we see her laughing and enjoying life.

B. H. S.'s most renowned actresses, as she can bus- iness manage in a really business-like way, as she is as smart in school as she is good fun out, and as she is popular with teachers and pupils alike, why attempt to describe MIN MARY ELIZABETH HUGHES Not too serious. not too gay. just a good sport in every way. Pythagorean Club, '28: French Club, '29. Although Mary has not been with us all of our high school days, we find her one of our best students. Everybody likes her for she is always ready and waiting to help anybody. We know her by her cheerful smile and we are sure she will succeed in anything she attempts. Here's wishing great luck and much success to MARY HELEN FRANCES JACKSON God made her-then los! the pattern.

Here is a girl who is capable, true to a purpose in life, energetic and dependable. She is also a good sport, attractive, and popular. Whether its class activities, club programs, Hi-Y meetings, or a party with the 400, Helen holds her own. To say she is an all 'round good girl is putting it mild. HELEN

Why that's Sarah Lane, one of the best sports in New Bern. Sara's a real enter- tainer, and if you want to have some fun at your parties just ask Sarah. To look at Sarah's pic- tures one would think she is serious, but not so you can tell it. She has proved her skill in typing and shorthand. We wish you the best ever as a business woman.
