The Sabre GeorGE D. PoLLarp AYLETT, VIRGINIA “Jiggs” 1922-23—Private Company ‘‘B,”’ Virginia Club, W. W. L. S. Here we have one of the most noted men in the country. For who, though he be banker or ditch-digger, has not heard of “Jiggs.” Now that we have learned what it is to have “Jiggs” as a friend, we do not blame Dinty Moore for taking his life in his hands for his friend. Luck to him. May he always dodge trouble as successfully as he has Maggie while staying among us. Page forty-three Class Rosert S. Noor STATESVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA “Sharp” 1922-23—Private Company ‘‘A,’”’ N. C. Club. Here is one of those quiet, but hard-work- ing, students. Few realized that such a per- son was in school, but “Sharp” soon proved it to us. He made his appearance last Septem- ber, and since then has kept forging ahead. “Dependability” is his watchword. Every- body that has come in contact with him is proud to claim his as a friend. It is with real regret that we see him leave, but we wish him luck in his future undertakings.

The Sabre Senior Class JoHn F, PAYNE LOCUST GROVE, VIRGINIA “A che” 1922-23—Private Company ‘‘A,” Virginia Club, Please do not judge “Ache” by his nick- name, for it was not given him as an indi- cator of his disposition, but rather to show the minute effect of a name. John is one of the best liked boys in school, and is at all times welcome anywhere, even though the box has just arrived. He carries our best wishes with him and we are sure that he will make good. RAYMOND L. Moore STAPLETON, VIRGINIA 1921-22—Private Company ‘‘B,”’ Varsity Foot- ball, President W. I. L. S., Y. M. C. A., Minis- terial Band. ? 1922-23—First Lieutenant Compuiny 'A,’’ Var- sity Football, President Athletic Association, President Y. M. C, A., President V. C, Ministe- rial Band, W. I. lL. S. and Virginia Club. Raymond, alias the Rey. Dinty Moore, came spinning up in a high-powered flivver one fine afternoon, for his junior year, as pompous as the King of England on the way to his coro- nation. He is noted for his hasty trips “here and there.” South Avenue and Main Street have both ceased to stop and gaze as he goes flying by, as they haven’t time for common- places. Raymond is beloved by his fellow students and is a leader in all our activities. Here’s to his success in school, in the pulpit, and in the parlor. Page forty-two

The Sabre Senior M. M. Price, Jr. IVANHOE, VIRGINIA “M. M.” 1921-22—Private Company ‘‘A.’ 1922-23—Sergeant and Private Company ‘A,”’ Junior Football Team, Baseball Squad, Virginia Club, “M. M.” is the only boy who comes from a town having a well known romance named after it. But even this fact has failed to give him the swell head. He was the star center of the junior football team and we expect to see him smash his way to success as he did upon the gridiron last Fall. Class WILLIE ATTICUS PARDUE, JR. TRENTON, SOUTH CAROLINA “Willie Atticus” 1922-23—Private Company “B,’’ Junior Foot- ball Squad, Southern Club, W. I. L. S. “Willie Atticus” came under our wing from the warmer Carolina, which fact he proudly shows by the warming color of his hair. Nevertheless, he has shown himself to be a scholar of the school and a fellow-student well worth knowing. This “lover-forlorn” is just as sure a hit with the girls as he is with the boys, but we cannot hold that against him. On the drill field he is entirely hidden by his rifle, therefore his military rating cannot be ascertained. Yet these little drawbacks are completely brushed away by his sunny dis- position, and with it he is sure to ride on top of the world. Page forty-four
