The Scribbler 19 MARJORIE HILL “She is no foe to any man, but she can talk to beat the band. After finishing three years in the Birmingham High School, Marjorie has come to the “City of Success” to finish her high school career. She is one of those lucky girls that makes a “hit” wherever she goes, and we certainly are glad she came to us. MARGARET HOLMES “I am happiest when I’m idle.” Margaret is a jolly good old sport. The less she can do, the happier she is. Although Margaret is not fond of work, she is a bright student and her classmates love her very much GRACE HORTON Better a witty fool than a foolish wit.” Grace is one of the best old sports in our class. She always backs up the class in anything they undertake. And her wit never fails on any occasion. EUGENE HIX “Plain without pomp, rich without show.” “Hix” is a very ambitious young man. Here’s hoping that he succeeds in his desire to become an electrical expert. He is liked very much by the hoys, as well as the girls.

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.

20 The Scribbler MARY HUDGENS “If worry zvere the only cause of death, then I would lire forever.” With plenty of sympathy and kindness, Mary has all the elements which go to make a true friend. Her pet aversions are snakes and men (although we don’t think she hates snakes so much), and we expect some day to see her a famous woman politician. MARGARET HUMBERT “Fame is a vapor; popularity an accident.” We know from Margaret’s taciturnity and modesty that she has in her some genuine, sterling qualities, and because of these and her earnestness, we all expect from her something indeed great. BETTIE ELEEEN HUTCHINS Here the pen fails us—not because we have nothing to say, but because nothing we can say will do her justice. Bettie Eileen and music go together, for besides her glorious alto voice, she has ten talented fingers that can play such notes as warbled to the string would draw iron tears down Pluto’s checks.” You wouldn’t expect athletics to go with musical genius, hut Bcttie Eileen can play anything from basketball to tennis, and has even indulged in football in the privacy of her front yard. She can act, and she can recite, and she can talk, and she can eat, and she can do anything and everything. Yet she doesn’t know that she's wonderful at all. The world’s her playground, and everyone in it a possible friend. ALLEN HYATT “Wit and humor cover a multitude of faults.” Allen has made many friends at High School, and these have been won by true worth, as well as by quick wit and good humor. Whether in class, on the grounds or on the street, lie always greets us with a smile.
