 H e: SCRIBBLER. C. F. EARNHARDT “Life is real; life is earnest; But a bluff is all right when it works. “C. F.” is one of the most popular boys in the school. His humorous disposition and ready smile have won him a place in the hearts of all his classmen. His witty remarks keep the whole class in an uproar. We know his college career at Clemson is bound to he a success. JAMES ELIAS Always going out somewhere. Or else has just come back. Some folks think Jim is silent, but they just don’t know. Watch him in study hall, listening to or telling a joke. He has made many friends at high school who wish for him success. MAE ELIAS “Precious things come in small packages. Mae may be small, but what there is of her is overflowing with “pep. Our corridors and class rooms are always full of fun when she’s around. Has Mae learned to cook? She knows that better than the rest of us. How can we tell how anything tastes till after it’s cooked? Mae knows! M. B. EZELL Heroes arc made, not born. Have you ever attended a State track me?t ? Then you have seen M. B. about a mile ahead of the others. Or maybe it was a dance? He was there, too, with his eternal saxophone and Gene Wofford. And at school, his broad grin and ability to make friends have made him one of the most popular boys in the Senior class. MARY BYRD FANT “The world rests lightly on her shoulders.” Imagine a girl bubbling over with life, smiling at everybody she meets, winning athletic honors, cheerful in the face of any test the teacher may put up—and usually getting an A on the above-mentioned test! Such is the description of Mary Byrd. Do you wonder we are proud to claim her?

 ■'=r SCRIBBLER -T - SARAH DARNELL “Curiosity killed a cat, And it’s most killed Sarah.” Who’s the little whirlwind rushing down the “main drag”? None other than Sarah in her Essex. Her greatest weakness is her curiosity, but how can one learn others' business if she doesn’t ask questions? She takes the most serious facts calmly—and doesn’t even cry when told. JULIA DAVENPORT “Giant oaks from little acorns grow.” Julia is one of those all-round girls. Her attractive personality has gained for her a large group of friends. Wherever you see her, she is always cheerful and always greets you with a smile. We can easily see that whatever line of work she chooses, she will make a success. MILTON DAVENPORT “Genius wins sometimes; hard work always.” Milton is a quiet, unassuming chap who with a contagious smile, drills his way into everyone’s heart. His greatest trouble is to keep folks away long enough to attend to his school duties. However, he finds time to devote to History, his favorite subject, and he has a perfect passion for French. SELINA DePASS “Since brevity is the soul of wit, 1 will be short.” Who is that cute little girl coining down the hall peeping over her books? Why, Selina, the Secretary of the Senior class! We fear Clara Bow will be forced to take a back seat when Selina steps out, for she certainly possesses “it” and is another example of the maxim that “Gentlemen prefer blondes.” Yet all of this doesn't keep her from stepping up with the honor roll at the end of the month. MARTHA DICKERSON “Modest, undaunted, and true.” Yes, that is Martha, sometimes known as “Mot.” She blew in to us from Mississippi in her Senior year, and has proven herself a faithful student with all the elements that go to make her a true friend and a real sport. We have not been able to understand how we did without her those first three years.

SCRIBBLER BEULAH FERGUSON “She is pretty to waik with. Witty to talk with. And pleasant to think upon. Everyone’s buddy is our “Buddy.” Talk about crushes— well, Beulah’s are “History and “Clemson. She is very collegiate, and always first at the Hi School games. Her charming smile, dreamy brown eyes, and winning personality have won for her many friends. But everybody loves her because she’s just—“Buddy.” FRANCES FERGUSON “Light-hearted. happy, wild and young. She has laughed, and talked, and danced and sung. Found—In the Spartanburg High School Senior class a girl with an attractive personality, a quick mind, a contagious grin, and a marvelous disposition! Any person desiring this combination will find them all in “Frank Ferguson—plus a reputation for the biggest flirt! ASTOR FLEMING “To worry little, to study less. My idea of happiness.” Astor’s good nature and generosity have won for hint many friends while at high school. From the football field Flem has helped bring back many a victory for old Red and Black. If he “hits the line” in life as he has in football, a bright future is sure to lie ahead of him. GILBERT FOSTER “He's always singing a song. Because there's nothing wrong.” Gilbert is one of our most honored students in “4-C.” Why? Because he, like the old owl, is always quiet and attending to his own business. And as a result he steps up” with both the honor roll and friends. Good luck, Gilbert. MARGARET FOSTER “Laugh, and the world laughs with you—” Margaret’s eyes have captivating twinkles; her hair has perky little curls, and her giggles, numerous and delightfully musical. Her clothes are chic and her heels—quite high! Her marks are high. too. The postman always stops at Margaret’s house, and he always leaves letters addressed in masculine handwriting. After the “dear old golden rule days,” we wonder what profession will claim her talents? One guess is all you need ! Page Nineteen
