Clam W 2'11 E, the class of 1928, having traversed the long path through our high school days, and feeling the end to be drawing near, yet being in possession of all our faculties, and in our right minds, do hereby bequeath on this 3rd day of May, in the year of our Lord, one thousand, nine hundred and twenty-eight, our most cherished possessions to those we leave behind us: Item I. We do give and bequeath our respective classrooms to our suce cessors. Because of the frequent visits made to them by some of the members of the Junior Class, we feel that this will be a most welcome gift. Item H. We bequeath Lefty Youman's position as captain of the football team to Horace Stevens in the hope that Horace will 1311 the position as well as Lefty has. ltem Ill. We do give and bequeath to Ethel West the occupation of selling candy for and to Russell Hi, hoping that Ethel will enjoy doing this as Mattie Davis has. Item IV. We give the chewing tobacco of Johnny Suttles and Roy Goen to Hammond Stith and Paskert Melton. May it give them as much pleasure as it has given Johnny and Royl Item V. We do give and bequeath the fresh, pert speech of Jewell DeLoach and Louise Perry to Annie Mays and Velma Little. We feel that they will use it as extravagantly as Jewell and Louise have. Item VI. To Irene Durham we give Alleyn Boylels imitation of Mr. Bishop's HPardon me! Don't let him hear you use it, Irene, or it will be HStudy hall, this afternoon. Item VII. To Albert Fisher, we bequeath the taps on Frank Suttle's shoe heels, hoping that he will make as proficient use of them as Frank has. Item VIII. We do give and bequeath to Harrison Hemperly the methods used by Joe Adams in annoying Miss Middlebrooks. Item IX. We bequeath Leslie Yeast's talent for arguing to Willie Wilkes, though we agree it will be quite unnecessary. Item X. To Mildred Horne and Clyde Wardlaw we bequeath the agility of Myra Thompson and Sallie Ramage on the basket-ball court. Item XI. We do give and bequeath Raymond Styles' quietness in class to Ralph Lewis. Perhaps he needs some of it. Item XII. We bequeath Jack Brownls history prowess to Leon Thomp- son. Item XIII. We do give and bequeath the Latin knowledge of Nell Cole. Gertrude Ryan, and Lucille Owen to Jessie Strickland, Myrtie Nabell, and Marianna Kuppinger. Item XIV. We bequeath the trials in solid Geometry of James Yar- brough, Henry Askew, and George Wilkie to Ernest Brown, George Mitchell, and Edgar Lee. Item XV. To Virgil Stephens we bequeath Wilburn Sandiferls smile. Both put together would be broad enough to span the ocean. Item XVI.
