a re ea is Io MAN 1935 .rw '. . fl I . I fiv e g W ACTIVITIES '34, '35 With the first hint of autumn thoughts at Rome High turned to football and our Blue and tiold Warriors began their yearly campaign by defeating Chickamauga 55 to o. Spurred on by such a favorable beginning and cheered to victory by the cheer leaders, Melba Strain, llot Cone, Doris Fagot, Virginia Hubbs, Bill Brooks and Herbert Griliith, made an enviable record losing only two games out of ten played. The 1934 squad was composed of the following lmskies: Charlie Camp, Arthur Rags- dale. Embry Coalson, Quitman Wakeley, Lamar Ross, Oliver Massey, Bubber Quigg, Robert livans, joe Smith, Arthur Martin, .Jack Tolbeg,-x Healthy Morgan, Harry Bryson, Ray Keith, Griffin Chesser, Wookrow Kiser, M. G. Turner, Ralph Dykes, Albert Payne, ,lohn Massingill, Hersliel Shores, Belt Coker, James Whittenburg, Homer Smith, Dorsey Shores and Captain Pete Millican. Possibly the most exciting game of the season was played with Cartersville, our age-old rival, with Rome the victor. After football season had passed. and gone, interest at Rome High centered on the basket- ball teams. The Girls' team was one of the speediest ever seen on the hill and won seven out of twelve games played. Members of the varsity, Grace Moore, Doris liagot, Lillian Dougherty, Mary Lee lilliott, joy Clover, Josephine Smith, Elaine Dodd, Berta Booker, Ann Chidsey, Manager, received R's for good work. The boys' team tried their best and put plenty of school spirit in their fighting but did not quite make the grade, winning only two games out of fourteen. The squad consisted of Homer Smith, Griffin Chesser, William Swint, Francis limilio, Albert Payne, Ray Keith, Hamilton Porter, Lewis Turner, Jack Tol- bert, Ben McCollum, Arthur Ragsdale, Harry Bryson, Bubber Quigg, and Marvin Keith, Robert lfvaus served as a capable manager. The Roman Staff composed of all the journalistically inclined seniors, published their issues of The Roman in October, November and February and completed their careers as high school journalists with the publication of this annual. At the first meeting of the entire senior class, officers were elected to serve their class for the term. Mary Stewart Wriglit as president presided at all meetings held to decide senior problems. Assisting her in official duties were Quitman Wakeley, vice-president: Lila Os- borne, secrctary, and Millard Coker, treasurer. Senior Day the history of the graduating class was given by Caroline Bradshaw, class historian and a rosy future was prophesied for all seniors by the class prophet, Clara Stallings. lirnie Boswell served as Senior Poet. Many musically talented seniors participated in Glee Club activities and furnished musical entertainment for the students as well as at other affairs in the city. ln the Glee Club try-outs Iidith Craft was chosen pianist and to plan entertainments for the club Herbert Griffith and Dora XVare were chosen. The songsters gave special programs after the debate and at commencement. Around the middle of October the various clubs and their members elected officers and began their activities. The Scribblers' Club elected Starr Quigg, president: Lewis Turner, vice-president: Mary Stewart Wright, corresponding secretary, and Dorothy Cone, treasurer. Meetings were held at the homes of Starr Quigg and Margaret Amberson and programs were arrauged with guest speakers discussing some form of writing. The Hi-Y Club held its first meeting in IO34 on the 2lst 'of September and installed the following officers: Presi- dent. ,lames Bradshaw: Vice-President, Arthur Ragsdale: Secretary, Robert Evans, and Treasurer, Sam Garner.
