G MARY FRANCES HATCHETT “punk” ‘She is herself of best things the collection.” History Club; Daniel Society; Captain, Basket- bail Team, (’25-’26) ; Manager, Basketball Team, (’24-’2S) ; Vice-President Civics Club; Banjo-Uke Club; Y. W. C. A.; President, Senior Class; Secre- tary, Athletic Association. Can she play basketball? She doesn’t miss. We expect to hear some day that Mary Frances has become famous on the athletic field. Besides being a good basketball player, Mary F ' rances is a good all-round sport. She has plenty of courage and the kind of pluck that we admire in a girl. 4 ELIZABETH WINSTON LANIER “betsy” ‘‘How far that little candle throws her beams.” Page Society; Raven Society; Athletic Associa- tion; Civics Club; History Club; Friendship Club; Girls’ Chorus; Missile Reporter. You might think that Lizzie is quiet but you just ought to see her at a football game. She is a fine rooter and will yell when everybody else is bored. Sportsmanship, Lizzie; keep up the good work! 4 LENA LAVENSTEIN “billy do” “She doeth little kindnesses which most leave un- done or despise.” Raven Society; Athletic Association: Daniel So- ciety; History Club; Public Speaking Society. It is said that good things come in small pack- ages, but there’s always an exception to the rule ; one of these exceptions we find in Lena. She’s the kind of a girl that classmates ne ' er forget. Her sweet disposition will be always engraven in our minds, and we wish her success after bidding P. H. S. fare- well. 28 -

THOMAS ARTHUR HARDING “philosopher” “Deep sighted in intelligence, ideas, atoms and influence.” Raven Society ; History Club ; Civics Club ; Daniel Society ; Publip Speaking Society ; Spanish Club ; Athletic Association; Junior Hi-Y ; Hi-Y; Class Historian; Manager Basketball Team, ’25; Mana- ger Football ' J ' eam, ’25; School Representative in National Oratorical Contest, ’25. Thomas has a heart as sound as a bell, and his tongue is the clapper, for what his heart thinks his tongue speaks. 4 FLORENCE ESTELLE HARRISON “flo” “At first she loved naught else but flowers And then she only loved the rose And then herself alone; and then — She knew not what; but now she knows.” Athletic Association; Raven Society; Glee Club; Double Quartette; Spanish Club. “Flo” is one of those sedate people who are al- ways full of mischief, yet serious at the time when everyone else is “caught in the act.” Bubbling over with enthusiasm, ever bent upon attracting the op- posite sex — at present, it is one of those fellows of the “hardy” type. 4 ROBERT WHITNEY HARWELL “bob” “He did well because he served the common good rather than his own will.” Athletic Association ; Associate Editor, Missile ; Chairman Photograph Committee, Roulette; Vice- Fres., Raven Society; Junior Hi-Y; Hi-Y; Civics Club; History Club; Treasurer, Athletic Association; Vice-President, Senior Class. Golden reports come as easily to Robert as trans- fers to a street-car conductor. He not only gets good reports, but he is a good worker and is always willing to do his part. We hope that he will have as much success hereafter as he has had in the cattle business. ---$ 27

W. R. McKENNEY FREE LIBRAIY PETERSBURG, VIRGINIA SELMA POLLACK LAVENSTEIN “sel” “Is she not surpassing fair?’’ Athletic Association ; Daniel Society ; History Club; Civics Ciub ; Missile Reporter; Banjo-Uke Club; Girls’ Chorus. Yes, Selma has red hair, but we haven’t discov- ered her temper yet. If there is a theory concern- ing red hair and temper, Selma has certainly ex- ploded it. We all find her a good friend and a jolly good sport. What more could one expect in a girl? 4 ? LINDA WILLIAM MALONE “beaufy” Athletic Association; Freshman Club; Sophomore Club ; Glee Club ; Raven Society ; History Club ; Spanish Club; Missile Reporter; Junior Music Club; “Belindy” is a great girl, full of laughter and fun. She can have the whole very sedate study hall of 315 laughing in a moment if it be her will. Linda can laugh at the right time, and she knows how to be serious when necessary, although it is hardly ever necessary with “Belindy.” MARY ELIZABETH MANN “Boots” “On with the dance; let joy be unconfined.” Friendship Club; Page Society; Athletic Associa- tion; Latin Club. Mary is surely a good old pal. She never re- fuses to help her classmates whenever she can, and we wonder what we should do if we should see her frown rather than smile. She will be missed when she leaves dear old P. H. S. — 29 }? •»--
