Benjamin Arthur Gardner Irving James Gillette Bishibi We go to school to use o%ir heads and not our tongues. Arthur is one of our hardest workers. He always takes a big part in the class activities, and ' s usually willing to give his ideas concerning anything that comes before the class. If he is not telling a witty joke he is a.sking questions. Track team 2 ; Basketball 4 ; North Carolina Club 4 ; Literary Society 4 ; Current Events Club 4. Yankee A friend in need is a friend indeed. No one can have a better friend than Irving — he has won friendship from u.s all. He is a good sport, and has been our companion through the four years of toil and hardship. We consider him the wittiest member of our class and he well deserves this honor. We will always re- member Yankee by his queer brogue and per- manent wave which stays rain or .shine.

Albert Roy Gardner Bishibo Truth is the highest thing that man may keep. Albert is hard to beat. He is always ready and willing to lend his car or anything else that would benefit the class.

Hypo is a natural good fellow and is always talking and laughing, although no one ever knows what has happened. He is tall and slender and has very pretty curly hair. It is a puzzle of the Senior Class whether he has a permanent wave or his mother curls it every morning. Literary Society 4; Current Events 4; Nortli Carolina Cl ib 4. Ttoenl ii-ane
