The Oak Leaf, 1927 lemor Cl ass Amy Jackson Boyer Athenian Literary Society; Senior Players. Was there ever a change of classes when Amy didn’t powder her nose? We will not forget how well she took the part of the alluring Hono- lulu widow in “And Home Came l ed.” There is hut one Amy — always the same wherever you meet her. Glenna Beatrice Brooks Orchestra; Cheer Leader; Athenian Literary So- ciety. “Beaty” radiates pep! Carefree, radiant and happy, this attractive little girl has laughed her way into the hearts of her classmates and the faculty — to say nothing of a certain red-headed junior. Warren Kinzer Carper Oratorical Contest; Hi-Y Club; Baseball. ' 27; Olym- pian Literary Society. There is no subject on which Kinzer will not ar- gue. And yet why shouldn’t he? His oppo- nents invariably weaken under force of his at- tack. Kinzer is a clean-cut, likeable fellow, and one of the most loyal members of ' 27. Helen Mitchell Brown Business Manager Hi News”; State Reading Con- test, ' 25, ’2K; Vice-President Olympian Literary So- ciety; Senior Players; Glee Club. When we think of Helen, we think of our Hi News, to which she has contributed much of her time. As a reader Helen possesses unusual abil- ity and rare charm of manner. She is our youngest senior, and liked by everyone — especial- ly the opposite sex. 1 1

n The Oak Leaf, 1927 n lenior Cl ass Josephine Raney Anderson Constitutional Committee of the Olympian Literary Society. Our quiet and studious “Jo” will be remembered for her eraser borrowing. A sweet, likeable girl, “Jo” has a large number of friends. When re- port cards are given out, there is always a smile on her face. Ole Hi needs more like “Jo.” Ara Rosamond Anthony Senior Players; Hi News”; Olympian Literary Society. Isn’t he the cutest one at Tech?” “Nip was over last night, my dear.” Such expression may be heard daily in the Senior Class rooms, as Ara gaily raves to a group of admirers who listen in mild amazement. As the bride who was so mis- erable in “And Home Came Ted,” Ara proved her versatility as an actress. William Lawrence Burton Business Manager of “The Oak Leaf”; Class Presi- dent. ’2( ; Secretary of Hi-Y Club; Orchestra; Sen- ior Features; Olympian Literary Society. It is impossible to think of “The Oak Leaf” and not think of “Bill,” to whom the success of the book is largely due. A violinist of unusual tal- ent, a business manager of much ability, and an all-round good sport who ranks high in the esteem of his classmates — that’s “Bill.” Charleen Steele Beller Program Committee of Athenian Literary Society, ' 26; Glee Club. Charleen is the pretty little brunette who has not bobbed her hair. A sweet, quiet, unassuming and dependable girl, Charleen cannot number her friends in High School. If there were more like her, school wouhl be more pleasant for stu- dents and faculty alike. io C

The Oak Leaf, 1927 n 1 — Semor Cl ass Virginia May Campbell Librarian, ’27; Assistant Librarian, ’ 2 f ; “Hi News”; Glee Club; Health Festival, ’26; Athenian Literary Society. Surely no one else could so efficiently fill the of- fice of librarian! Why, she even made us enjoy paying fines for hooks long overdue. Virginia May is one of our most reliable girls. We are expecting great things of her. Maurice Cecil Daily President Hi-Y Club; Cheer Leader; Art Editor “Tile Oak Leaf”; Senior Players; Athletic Editor Hi News”; Senior Features; Orchestra; Monogram Club; Olympian Literary Society; Football, ' 27. When there is something to be done, Maurice does it. Known for his true values, enthusiasm, and good qualities, he is liked by everyone. May there be more like him in Radford High. Juanita Evelyn Carter Glee Club; Olympian Literary Society. Every morning finds Juanita in the IV-B class- room actually studying — while lots of us are still sleeping! But when report cards are handed out, look at her smile ! Annie Pearl Conrad Olympian Literary Society. Annie’s laugh distinguishes her. There is none like it. It is most frequently heard in Miss Miller ' s French class. Annie never seems to lack topics for conversation, and is never without an audience. 12
