FOOT HILLS M Wendell Greene Faw Green North Wilkeshoro, N. C. Platonic Literary Society, President, ' 30, Secretary, ' 30 ; Class Secretary ; Associate Editor The FOOT HILLS; Associate Editor RECTANGLE; Glee Club, ' 30; Dramatic Club, ' 30; Member Y. M. C. A. Quiet and unassuming but a possessor of a keen mind and a strong will. Wendell has added much to college life by taking an active part in various activi- ties. In the class room he has proven himself an excellent student. Wendell is not too serious and not too gay, but is what is termed a well balanced student. With his genius to do the great things in life, his success and accomplishments will be un- limited. Wellington David Fong Ambassador Quebec, P. Q., Canada Platonic Literary Society, Officer, ' 29- 30. Kong is certainly to be commended for the re- markable scholastic record he has made while work- ing under the handicap of having to learn our lan- guage. In spite of this handicap he has one of the best vocabularies of anyone in school. Though he was a first lieutenant in his former school and expects to continue the study of military tactics, he also expects to become an ambassador, and we know he will be an effective diplomat in helping to establish peace, understanding, and sympathy between the nations of the world. Rollin Parker Gibbs Red Greensboro, N. C. Platonic Literary Society, Secretary. ' 30, Treasurer, ' 29, Critic, ' 29, Improvement Medal Judge, ' 30; Min- isterial Band, Vice-President, Secretary; Student Council; Varsity Football, ' 29- ' 30; Associate Editor RECTANGLE; President Y. M. C. A. ; Debate Council, ' 29; President Boys ' Sunday School Class, ' 29; Publication Committee, ' 29; Class Prophet; As- sistant in Science. Everyone will agree that Rollin is one of the most, if not the most valuable student at Rutherford. He has shown his genius in many ways, serving his college in almost every capacity, from machinist to assistant in science, but perhaps he has displayed his greatest talent on the gridiron. He is one of the few who was able to make the team and yet main- tain his high average in grades. We will miss Rollin when he is gone. He has been with us for five years, but we sincerely hope for him a brilliant career, and we are confident he will succeed. [20] !3 !5 rw nwi Fivi M?i , « i ;

Victorian Literary Society, Vice-President, ' 29; Glee Club, ' 30; Dramatic Club, 30; Co-ed Editor of RECTANGLE; Co-ed Representative of Student Council. Cornelia has distinguished herself in various fields of activity, her chief one being basketball, in which she was a star player. She personifies good nature and geniality. Cornelia ' s ideas are very unusual and in everything she is very energetic, putting her very heart into her work. Her grades prove that she takes her work seriously, and that she is an excel- lent student. Joseph Howard Connor Joe High Point, N. C, Platonic Literary Society, Secretary, ' 30; Foot- ball, ' 29- ' 30; Glee Club, ' 29- ' 30; Dramatic Club, ' 30; Monogram Club; Y. M. C. A. The class of 30 has been fortunate in having Joe as one of its members. He not only has the physical greatness which enables him to fill his place on the gridiron so well, but he also has a greatness of personality which causes him to be liked by all his acquaintances. Joe is considered the champion arguer of the class. His ambition is to become a lawyer and we are confident that his college career will be a success, and that in the days to come he will be among the greatest barristers of the day.

M. C. A. Ernie hails from the eastern part of our noble state. He comes to us as a candidate for the ministry and ha.s proven his unlimited abilities by his participation in college activities. He has the rare combination of a sunny, pleasure-loving dis- position, determination and ability. There is a ray of sunshine to be found in the darkest places when he is around. He has great individuality of per- sonality. He is another whose going will cause wide- spread regret, and when he departs from these peace- ful FOOT HILLS, woe be to the fairer ones of the Rast 1 For he is practically irresistible. ? US '

M. C. A.; Class Poet. Long after our school days are over we will ever hold in our memory Fred ' s charming personality. Yes, he ' s another of the South Carolina boys, but, as he says, he can ' t help that. He is one of our most promising ministerial students. He is a leader :n many of the activities around the school, and it will, indeed, be hard to find some one to take his place. He has all the qualities of manhood needed for success in life and the class of ' 30 expects much of him. We feel that he will not disappoint us. Lawrence W. Lee Bishop Lawndale, N. C. Newtonian Literary Society ; Ministerial Club, President of Program Committee; Secretary and Treasurer Dramatic Club; Superintendent of Fourth Department Epworth League ; Glee Club. Lawrence comes to us from Lawndale. He took freshman work at Weaver College, but decided to leave the mountains and come to Rutherford. Al- though we have not known Lawrence very long, we have found him to be an all-around fellow, and all that can be desired in a friend. He is always anxious to help those who need help and is noted tor his genius in the field of leadership. We have reason to believe that he will become a success and sometime make the world sit up and take notice that he has accomplished something worth while, for Cleveland County is noted for its great men.

Platonic Literary Society, President, ' 30 ; Football ; Basketball; Manager Baseball, ' 29- ' 30; Member Stu- dent Council ; Sports Editor RECTANGLE ; Busi- ness Manager The FOOT HILLS; Member of Publication Committee; Class President; De Molay. Cheerful and optimistic — that ' s Nick. He possesses a strong will, and meets everyone with a word of good cheer. He has an ideal philosophy of life ; therefore, the field of law affords a great future for him. Caldwell has been actively engaged in all col- lege activities from the athletic field to the formality of society president. Due to his wide range of ability, he has gained many life-long friends, and he will meet life four-square like a man who knows no defeat. vi ri M ' i i i i Pi ' i ri inrr
