14 The Scribbler ALICE ELLERBE Look who's here! One of the prettiest and most popular girls in the class. Alice used to be distinguished by her giggle, now by her smile. She’s very generous and always willing to share with anyone. “None knew her, but to love her.” She is fond of dancing and supports all the social and school activities. ELEANOR EVERETT Behold! Our Editor-in-chief. When it comes to writing stories, Eleanor is right there with twenty-one pages of notebook paper and a bottle of ink. Stories run from her pen like water from a duck’s back. Fashionable, she always wears the latest, “you bet.” Eleanor is on good terms with all the teachers, even calls most of them by original nicknames. She is always gay and giggling. Eleanor expects to enter Converse, and we surely expect good tidings from her. ELIZABETH FERGUSON Where Eleanor is. there Elizabeth may always be found, ’cause the two E’s are “tombstone buddies.” Though she takes both piano and voice lessons, she keeps up with her school work. Elizabeth has a cheerful disposition. She has a “peach” of a blush, too. After graduation, she will enter Sweet Briar. RUTH FINLEY “Boots” is little and sweet, and we love her well. “E’en her failings lean to virtue's side.” She’s a faithful student and a true friend. May her college life at Winthrop run as smoothly as has her high school course!

The Scribbler 13 PERRIN DARGAN “Trouble has to be started, so why not by me?” “Fat” has shown himself a good asset to the school. His athletic ability lias earned for him his football and basketball blocks. He is undoubtedly the jolliest member of the Senior class. SARAH DODGEN Sarah's a radiant, bright, joyous streak of sunlight, from the golden sheen of her hair to the glint of gold in her smile. Can’t you just hear Sarah’s pet chuckle now? Sarah’s brim full of fun and pep and as light as a feather on her feet. She's the spirit of grace and sparkling wit at a dance and everywhere. Sarah’s one of the few members of the class who has long hair, but if we could look as pretty as she does, we wouldn’t bob ours cither. Her motto is, “Why should I worry; worry never made men great!” AGNES DRUMMOND “Of wakitty books, there is no end, and much study is a weariness of the flesh.” She studies not overmuch, but yet she is one of the best pupils in the class, carefree, friendly, cheerful. Those are the adjectives which apply to her. EDWARD EDWARDS “I ha ne’er seen the wine I could no’ drink. The ’bacco I couldna’ smoke, Nor the lass I couldna’ kiss.” “Ed” has helped High School to victory in many of her battles on the old gridiron. He is a man of ability and character, and everyone knows that he will succeed in everything that he will undertake to do.

The Scribbler 1 RUTH FINLEY “I’ll be merry, I'll be free. I’ll be sad for nobody.” Ruth is one of those happy-go-lucky girls. She is always ready to do anything for her friends. She has a smile for everybody. We wish her much luck and success in the future. ALEX FLEMING “Fleming is to High School as Caesar is fo Rome.” Alex has fought many of High School’s battles on the athletic field and won glory there that will never die from the memories of his classmates. He was always full of school “pep” and always had a smile to greet his friends. MILDRED FRANKS “If studying interferes with pleasure, cut out studying.” Mildred came to us from Greenville and is one of the most attractive and popular girls in our class. She never shirks her social duties for the humdrum of school life. She never fails to rise up in her desk at the sound of an auto horn. But Mildred is full of fun and pep, and we all love her. CHARLES GENTRY “Quality, not quantity; brains, not brawn.” “Charley” seems, by the number of letters he receives, to have a monopoly on the fair sex of the class. His ability as an actor has been clearly shown by the number of plays he has taken part in. He has the unique record of having neither a tardy nor an absent mark against him in these eleven long years of school.
