16 The Scribbler WM DEVIEW GENTRY “My heart is whole, my fancy free; Go along, small boys, don't bother me.” When one is downhearted and blue, turn to Deview, for she, with her happy-go-lucky smile and ever ready wit, will banish all sorrows. In spite of her jollity, one sees in her glorious brown eyes a soul so pure and sweet that we have learned to love her. Deview excels in debating and has won many honors in our English class. NANCY GILES “She is as constant as the stars.” Nancy never fails to prepare her lessons. in fact, she does not fall down on anything she is assigned to do. She is President of one of the literary societies, and she certainly ably fills her office. FRANCES GLENN Frances is one of the most stylish girls in our class. Often preoccupied in class, she looks up and answers, ‘‘Huh, what did you say?’' Sometimes we wonder why the Wofford boys drive by the school so much at recess. A big part of the reason why is Frances. WILLIAM GREGORY “Why worry? It will happen anyway. “Rill” is good-natured and pleasant, and it is impossible to be pessimistic around him. He has been a strong supporter in our activities and athletics. We wish him a great success in life and predict for him a brilliant and successful career.

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.

17 Tiie Scribbler CHESTER GWINN “What’s done, cannot be undone.” Four years ago Chester decided to cast aside country life and come to the big city in search of knowledge. Spartanburg High School is the first place to which he came, and Spartanburg High School is where he stayed. During his short time with us he has proven himself an excellent student and a man of high ideals—and still more, a gentleman. NELLIE HANNA Nellie is just such a dependable girl that we couldn't do without her. Nellie’s a loyal member of the class, full of sincerity and good nature. She can always see the joke, even when it’s on herself. Nellie’s an all-right, all-round girl.’’ JOHN HARPER “Better late than never.” If you do not know him, then you are certainly the loser, for this big-hearted boy has won a warm spot in the heart of each one of his fellow classmates. John's good nature has never failed him at the High School, and we all are sure that he will win great honors in the future. GEORGE HARLEY “Not toothache—Beechnut.” George is a great admirer of the fair sex. Among the members of the class, there is no better boy or truer friend than he. As to a piano, George is a regular “kitten on the keys.”
