SCRIBBLER ■ fRAia£i HODGES lie has only one weakness—the ladies. Frank’s generosity is exceeded only by bis good looks, which may or may not account for his many friends. His Oldsmobile is a favorite parking place for them. Frank's chief difficulty is arriving on time, but if he is persistent, who knows what worlds he mav not set on fire! Here’s to you, Frank. J. P. HOLT ■iod made him small in order to do a more choice Ivor km ans hip.” P. is a quiet, unassuming fellow, but made of teen karat gold. He is one of the exceptional ople who “wears well.” He is a fine student and somewhat of an athlete. That supreme of all virtues, common sense, is his. His capability and integrity of character can, shall, and must make him rise in the world. HESTER HOLMES “A daughter of the gods, divinely tall, and most divinely fair. I f only the teachers would ask questions about Carlisle Hall, instead of the (. ivil ar. Heck wouldn’t get a zero. Soon she’s going to get a private secretary to help keep up with her engagements. And. believe me. she can surely rattle off the poetry—when she’s blue. ROBERT H. HUGHES It is better to lie born lucky than with great riches.” Bob’s courtesy and his renowned ability in studies— “and trading”—has been recognized by everyone. His cheerful grin and dry humor have won for him many friends. No one ever sees or hears of Bob studying, but he is an honor roll scholar. All of us wish him great luck at Clemson. PEARCE D. HUGHSTON For he is a workman on the road to learning. Pearce is very industrous in his work, but when fun enters, he comes with grins. Pearce has a friendly smile which has won for him many friends, and which we know will win many more for him on the campus of Clemson. We consider Clemson lucky in getting this real scholar and good sport. fh'ii

SCRIBBLER HARVEY GREEN mailers not how long We live, hnl liow. To find the source of Harvey’s brilliant mind, you must look toward the sky. For Bean Pole” is indeed the tallest boy in the Senior Class. His sterling qualities and agricultural ambition will no doubt launch him upon the top of an air-castle far above the His athletic ability has been demonstrated on baseball field, where he has helped S. H. S. to many victories. KENNETH HAMILTON “Too much, too much—much loo much.” Kenneth has an unlimited amount of “nick” names, but his most common trade-mark is “Hawk.” His witty retorts and comic quotations have gained for him popularity among his fellow students and respect among his teachers. His greatest ambition is to speak French and make a football team. P. D. HEFFNER l.ook wise and yet the benefit of the doubt. ) Boo the golf . ark—when he isn’t knocking golf balls around the course, you will find him at the movie or riding around in his Packard. In Physics he may have his “ups and down,” but he makes up for that in History. He’s a fine scout, nevertheless. WILK HIX I’m sure care is an enemy to life. Here is another star of the famous basketball team! Ask him if he enjoyed Chicago, and see what be says. Also ask him where he got his nick-name. “Deacon.” Wilk is a great ladies’ man. and in spite of having the reputation of being “the laziest.” he has made a creditable record in his studies at High School, and we are sorry to see him go. RUTH GRIFFIN “Hany sorrow! Care will kill a eat. so let’s merry.” Who is that bright-eyed, lively girl coming the hall? Why. that's Ruth, and she’s going to History class. Nevertheless, there is one time when Ruth’s self-possession and intellect shine—in Physics experiments. We know how wayward Ruth is. for she absolutely refuses to continue her education at home. So. old girl, take your diploma and go! But. rest assured, your classmates will long remember you.

H E SCRIBBLER CATHERINE HUTCHINS Mighty in deed, love, and thought. Catherine’s one of the most popular girls in the class of '28. Her captivating manner and Sunday disposition have won her hosts of friends, (luce she got to school on time, and the shock was hard upon ’Fessor Blake. Catherine's a born leader, and we expect great things of her some day. Here's luck! HOWARD INGRAM Von never can tell the depth of the veil by the length of the handle that’s on the pump.’' “Skinny” is the victim of many a practical joke, but he takes them all good-naturedly, with no hard feelings. His greatest drawback is his inability to produce his books and his excuse at the right time. But when he manages to get hold of a book fifteen minutes before class, he’s there with the goods. PAULINE JACKSON Modest and shy as a daisy. Pauline, although very quiet among strangers, is distinguished among us for her sparkling wit and good humor. Her highest ambition is to some day learn to pronounce French. We hope, with all her learning, she will not lose her art of memorizing poetry. HELEN MAY JOHNSON IVhen in doubt—giggle. Do you know Helen May? Popular? I should say so! Why, she just compels one to like her. She has a habit of dancing breezily into “Fessor” Blake’s Physics room every morning raving over that “perfectly cute date she had the night before. To her friends she leaves the impression of funny remarks (especially in Physics class), blue Chryslers with the cut out, dates, and a vivacious personality. JOE HILL JOHNSON When the Great Scorer comes to write against your name, lie writes not that you won or lost, but how yon played the game. Behold the captain of the football team! and a star player of the basketball sextet! Joe is one of the most popular boys at school—particularly with the fairer sex. His good humor and friendliness are partly responsible for the good name he has made at Spartan High. We wish for you the best, Joe.
