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.”

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.

18 The Scribbler BAXTER HAYNES This bold, bad man! Among the most popular boys of the Senior class, “Hap” ranks high. The whole class enjoys his remarks, as he is a minstrel within himself. He hopes to he a great textile head some clay. ELIZABETH HEARON “Lib” is surely a good sport. When we played baseball, she was our “home-run hitter.” At a ball game, “Lib’s” the best rooter out; no need for a megaphone when she’s yelling for a touchdown. Elizabeth has a great talent for losing books, especially her French book. “Yours is the charm of calm, good sense.” JESSIE MAE HENDERSON “When she zvill, she will; you may depend on it; When she won’t, she won’t; that's an end on it.” When we hear someone say, “For the love of Mike, someone read my French,” we always know it’s Jessie. She is very brilliant and makes excellent marks in all her classes, although she always says, “I don’t know a thing.” Jessie is very quiet, and certainly runs a bluff on all the teachers, as she gets 100 on deportment every month. She is steadfast and succeeds in everything she undertakes. Among our brilliant English scholars, she is one of the leaders. She docs well and wins admiration from our dear faculty. BEATRICE HEWITT “Reported wise for saying nothing.” Quiet she is, but wondrously wise. She is the kind of student and pupil that both teachers and classmates like, never speaking until called upon, brilliant in her recitations, always attentive and never misbehaving.
