Since it is a well-known fact that “Jim is the school comedian, we wonder who will be his successor, allhough we confidentially know that no one will be able to fill it so efficiently as he. There is no one in school who doesn’t know him, because he is in a state of perpetual motion, due to his duties as business manager of the Oak Leaf. To his executive ability, business qualities and enterprise, this book owes largely its existence and measure of success. Daphne Curtis Myers As one of 22 ' s models Daphne is renorvned , — A more stylish, voguish person can not be found. Athenian Literary Society. Daphne, hailing from New River, came to us in our sophomore year abounding in humor and class spirit. She is one of our most attractive members. Her immaculate and stylish appearance, together with her beauty, makes her one of our most charming girls. Her splendid coiffures are both the delight and envy of all the girls. She says she is preparing to teach, but not for long, for we think that she will shortly move to Roanoke. Page twenty-four

THE OAK LEAF, 1922 ,,i,c eaws»E Senior Cl ass Eulalia Gladys Keister She has a jesl that is rare. Her wit is l(een — beware. Athenian Literary Society; French Club. Keary’s golden hair and engaging smile, coupled with her other various charms, have given her complete sway over the masculine element in the class. However, Keary is not only popular with the boys, but the girls too appreciate her witty remarks, her hilarious laughter, and her love for a good lime. James Trolinger Harvey “A lion among ladies — a most dreadful thing Athenian Literary Society; Assistant Business Manager Oak Leaf of ' 22; Treasurer Athenian Literary- Society, ' 21-’22; Varsity Football. ' 20: Varsity Baseball. ’21-’22; Varsity Football. ' 22; Senior Program. Commonly known as Bundy — is by common consent our most handsome boy. The girls rave about his irresistible dimples — can you blame them? We gaze in worshipful admiration at his golden hair, but he is not a dude — not Bundy. He is natural, unaffected, a most entertaining conversationalist, a good football player, and a loyal friend. Fay Yvoone Jennelle Behold our class beaut y, the lovely Miss Fay ; And her right to this title no one can gainsay. Athenian Literary Society; Club Editor Oak Leaf of ' 22; Jolly Set; French Club.

THE OAK LEAF, 1922 Senior Class Lola Gibboney Proffitt And fair she is, if mine eyes he true. And true she is, as she hath proved herself. ’ Athenian Literary Society; Senior Program. Lola is one of the most brilliant girls in the class, although not known or noted for her studious habits, much preferring Zane Grey to Wells Hart. Long will we remember Lola as impersonating ‘Miss Minerva, which role she acted so well, yet we admit that she is not intended for an old maid. As a teacher we predict a great future for her. William Gernon Wall A specimen of manhood rare. We ' d hate to pay for his bill of fare. Athenian Literary Society; Athletic Association; Varsity Football, ’21. Gernon isn t noted as a scholar, we admit, but who is thought more of by every one than he? He has adopted the policy, “Laugh and the world laughs with you,” and by his good nature has won the friendship of all. Very polite, a dead-game sport, a promising athlete, and an all-round good fellow. Isa Victoria Ratcliff “She is worth her Weight in gold Athenian Literary Society. “Isy may think we are overrating her value. However, we know that this is a poor estimate. Isa, who believes in always being prepared, is willing to pass her hard-earned knowledge on to some idle joy-seeker. Her one regret on leaving high school is that her name has so frequently been mispronounced, having been called everything from Isa to “Icie. Her beaming countenance, good nature, and cheery smile will linger forever in the hearts of her fellow classmates. Page twenty-five
