MARION BUXTON HALL . What was that noise? It was only Marion gig- gling. In the corridors, in the assembly, and everywhere her merry laugh can be heard. Sha ls a. fine classmate. We are afraid we are losing her in more than one way for her heart has been led astray since she has been with us. JOHN HARNER Biology Club '25g Eureka Literary Society '25: erary Society '25. Do we all know Johnny? You can bet we do, at least since he came back from Richmond. For now there is hardly an assembly program, but what we hear from him. But don't think from this that he is all noise: because, unless you are one of his close friends, you will think he never says a thing. His four years spent here have meant something to him. and it he goes on as he has started, he cannot help but be a success. THEODORE HARRISON I I l Home Room President '28. Ted is our angel: an angel in class, but-? Although Ted has attended our school only a short while, he has already made for himself a solid place in our hearts. He numbers his friends by the hundreds and has no enemies. Goodbye and good luck, Ted. GAIBEL G. HIMMELWRIGHT Staff of Spring Play '28g Fall Play '28g Senior Play '29g Business Manager Beacon An- nual '29. Ga.bel's ambition is to be a doctor, if you don't happen to know it already. He has made fine grades during his high school life, being especially fond of chemistry. He is also one of the staunchest supporters of our school. May your building be as ilrm as your foundation, Gabel. N422 WJ ffwofl' f KAW flfgif' fffrfwf W1 ' ' :V ' ', - gfsfq X , fl 1 E' 1 I if H f. we .. . .V ,Q We r ,Q t- we-. 111 ,vw-' f I I' ' 6

Behind that matter-of-fact look lurks a sense of humor. She has that rare quality of never disagreeing. Besides, unlike a woman, she never insists on the last word. And-but what more could be asked of anyone? V i I r SELENA READ KNIGHT Orchestra '25, '26, '27g Student Council '25, '26, '27, '28g Secretary Student Council '25.
