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.

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

 H e: SCRIBBLER. BLANCHE JOLLY “The best kind of sport and a pal true blue. Blanche is one of the happiest and jolliest girls in our class. She is a friend to everyone, and is much loved by all. Blanche also loves all kinds of sports, and is ready to join in any fun that may come her way. She likes Wofford, too. When we think of a true pal, we always think of Blanche. GRACE JONES Calm as a summer sky of blue.’’ Under all exasperating, nerve-wracking experiences in the class room, Grace goes serenely on. Her ability as an actress has won for her a place of distinction among her classmates, while her fame as an arguer has spread far and wide. RUTH KELLER Woman is to be loved, not understood. Well, here’s the Senior question mark ! What dull classes 4-A would have if it were not for Ruth’s proverbial ninety-nine questions each day. However, that is surely one way to learn, and Ruth is far from being at the bottom of her class in scholastic records. She is lots of fun, and knows the private life of all the teachers, and possesses more inside information than an Information Bureau. Cheerful, good-natured and always “up and ready”—that’s Ruth. JOYCE KELLETT Here’s a heart for any fate. Who is that laughing? Joyce, of course, telling Margaret Brice something funny. She is a strong I . advocate of athletics, particularly football, and can always be found on the sidelines rooting enthusiastically! Some say she has personal reasons for liking the game. Suppose you ask her. In the classroom, she makes creditable marks, and with her friends she is quite popular. ELIZABETH KING “Be it'hat you endeavor to be.’’ She possesses a wonderful amount of concentration and has only to read her lessons over once to know them perfectly. Her grades are excellent, and she has had the privilege of taking only four examinations while at Spartan High. As a Latin student, few surpass her. She is a friend to everyone and beloved by all those who are fortunate enough to be named her friends.
