June. 1931 THE KERNEL ALTON CHEADLE “Fatty” Class Secretary 111, IV; Dramatic Clui» II. HI. IV; Secretary III; Senior Play Staff IV; Class Committees 1. III. IV; Class Teams 1. II, III. It' cheerfulness is the root of wisdom, then Alton must be the wisest in her class. Her laughter runs up and down the scale in trills and on special occasions we have even heard it manage arpeggios. Her greatest ambition, we learn, is to see Willard Ileiney walk home from an auto ride. CHARLES FRANCIS COATES “Coatsey” Class Secretary I, II; ‘Varsity Basketball II. Ill, IV’; ’Varsity Baseball I. II, III, |V: Captain IV’; Dramatic Club II. IV: Secretary IV’; French Club 111. Senior Play Staff IV’; Senior Hitch School Chorus, III; Chair- man Home Boom IV’; Christmas Pageant IV’; Class Committees I, 111, IV; Class Teams I, II, III, IV’. Coatsey is a carefree, good-natured boy. When you get him alone, ask him to relate that peculiar drama of his concerning that mid- night. Baltimore ride. We would suggest that Francis would have a brilliant future as a ranger, he having already had such a wide field of experiences. ELLA SOPHIA CROWL “Soph” Commercial Club II. Ill; Typing Awards III; Treas- urer Health Club XV; Class Teams 1, II. Sophia's gods are order, efficiency and punctuality. She and Edith McCullough arc the high school inseparables—just like sisters. It seems nice that there is a possibility they may never have to part, as they may become real honest-to-goodness sisters. 10

THE KERNEL June, 1931 CHARLES D. BOYD “Charlie” Science Club II; French Club III: Christmas Pa- hvant Staff IV; ’Varsity Baseball III, IV; Newspaper Club IV; Senior Play Caste IV; Class Teams III, IV. Behold the boy with the wavy hair, which every girl in school would fain possess. Many a feminine heart went Hitter-flutter when Charles burst upon their sight, as the belliger- ent cop in the “First Floor Front ’ HAROLD WESLEY BRABSON “Pete” Aviation Club II; Commercial Club III, IV; Business Manager IV; Christmas Pageant Staff IV; Senior I May Staff IV; Commercial Club Literary IV. Harold is one of those quiet boys who never says very much. But Miriam says “lie isn't much at the ball but when von get him alone, you’d be surprised.” Nevertheless, Pete is one of our most dependable classmates. ELSIE MARGARET CHAPMAN “Otty” Dramatic Club III, IV; Commercial Literary IV; Glee Club I. II; Typing Awards III; Christmas Pa- geant II. IU. IV; Class Teams II. III. IV. Elsie is one of those girls who just can’t re- sist the temptation of sharing a joke with her friends. Hie especially practices this art in French class. Iler jolly disposition and her willingness to help anyone who needs it. have endeared her to all her classmates. 9

THE KERNEL June, 1931 DOROTHY MAE DAVISON “Dottie” Glee Club I; Commercial Club I, II, III, IV; Christ- mas Pageant II, III , IV; Typing Awards III. A rippling laugh and eyes dancing with mischief, that’s Dottie. She is always full of excitement and speed is her fourth dimension. Although Dot has not been a member of our class a long time, this charming miss has suc- ceeded in making many friends. EUGENE EVANS “Gene” Varsity Basketball IV; Treasurer Science Club IV: I.ittlc Britain: Baseball I. II; Captain III; Basketball I; Captain II, III; Class President III; High School Play Caste II, III. Gene never is troubled by the fair sex, so he says, but we fear that Gene troubles them ter- ribly with his indecision, for he just can’t de- cide whether blondes or brunettes are the best. However. Little Britain surely contributed an athlete to the 0. II. 8. when she sent him to us. BERTHA JANETTE FOULK “Bert” Decorative Club II; French Club IV'; Vice President Health Club IV; Christmas Pageant IV; Class Com- mittees III. We fear for Bert’s criminal tendencies. Any- one entering Mr. Lieb’s room on any day of the week might hear Bertha shriek, “Get away from me Harry Grier! Willard Heiney, I’m going to wring your neck!” But this is not as serious as it sounds—Bertha knows how to subdue her enemies as well as make lasting friends. 11
