SCRIBBLER THE 'ijhe Scribbler (TW Q Still on it creeps, Each little moment at another s heels, Till hours, days, years, anc? a 7 s ar made up Of such small parts as these; and men look back, Worn and bewilder d, wondering how it is. —Joanna B. Rayner. SW5 Published by the Senior Class of the Spartanburg High School Spartanburg, S. C. ISi net pen H u nd red Thirty-four foreword Elusive Time cannot be caught and harnessed. It hurries on and on in its triumphal flight, while man vainly attempts to measure it. The Past, the Present, the future — these are, in a sense, synonymous. And yet we, in this carefully-planned booh, have attempted to capture and to preserve some of the spirit of this fleeting Present. Whether we have succeeded may be determined only by the Future. Then it may be that some of us will pensively turn these pages and with reminiscent eyes behold that which will revive trenchant memories of mingled laughter and thought. T no rDedication Just as surely as time increases man s age, likewise does it reveal, in truest light, man s character. Throughout the ages some have been revered because of enduring loyalty, faithful service, and unwavering honesty. The Scribbler staff is privileged to express appreciation of two men who exemplify such virtues. To Dr. Frank Evans, for thirty-nine years the courageous and strong-minded Superintendent of our schools, and to Professor W. G. Blake, for thirty-four years an efficient and esteemed instructor in our schools, we lovingly and gratefully dedicate this volume. Three THE SCRIBBLER Alma Mater On through years of fame anil glory. Shrined in memories new and old, Proudly stands our Alma Mater, Loved by hearts as pure as gold. Mingled with a true devotion, Thoughts of love shall ever be In our hearts, dear Alma Mater, As we sing our praise of thee. On through life thy spirit lingers, Guiding us where'er we be; Loyal hearts will always echo “Alma Mater, hail to thee!” May thy motto always guide us, “Fae et spera” must prevail! Hail to thee, our Alma Mater, Dear old Spartan High School, hail! Chorus Nineteen Hundred Thirty-four Four Serene and regal, our school clock has presided over our building and lawn, our activities and recreation, our glad high school careers. Benignly it has overlooked us all, and it has beamed with impartial eye. It has warned loitering comers to hasten; it has marked the beginning and end of our play-time; it has smiled a benevolent goodbye at two o’clock; and it has sighed a little sadly— perhaps a bit philosophically — when some have left the school forever. In years to come we shall remember this faithful time-piece that has so surely and steadily measured the hours, the days, and the years allotted to us for a high school education. Five hohe School THE SCRIBBLER rDr. (drank Evans Superintendent of the Spartanburg City Schools Nineteen Hundred Thirty-four The ancients tell us that time flies, but how often have we seen that statement belied by this, the slowest of clocks! How often have ive anxiously watched time creep and crawl across its numerals from nine to two! It has measured out with the inexorable tread of a sentinel the days spent here. And yet, paradoxically enough, the lime has been fleeting after all. Today we stand, almost breathless, at the threshold of commencement. In retrospect we may come to realize that this clock has marked the golden hours of our greatest opportunity—that it has clicked away the days of our greatest happiness.

In spite of our long-suffering teachers' efforts to cheer us. we soon learned that the darkest hours of the night were from nine till two in the day. From that time we bravely tackled our task, realizing that Youth is not rich in time, it may he poor,” and that we must Part with it. as with money, sparing.” Spartanburg High School was just waiting for us to come along so that she could defeat Gaffney for the first time in seven years! In basketball we won the South Atlantic Tournament. At the Big Ten Track Meet we took first place. “Time rolls his ceaseless course.” As Sophomores, we smugly felt that the Rubicon had been crossed and that we were thoroughly initiated into the mysteries of the good old Alma Mater. In our sophomoric wisdom, we thought that “l ime past, and time to come, are not— Time present is our only lot.” The football season was fairly successful, and the basketball term again closed with our winning the South Atlantic Championship. At the Big Ten our representatives proved their ability in both scholastic and athletic fields. Time dragged on with “the lazy leaden stepping hours. Where speed is but the plummet’s pace.” With the passing of the second mile-stone, we became professional clock-watchers, impatiently anticipating the hour when we could assume the dignity of Seniors. As jolly Juniors, we crowded each moment with pleasure, taking no note of time, but from its loss.” Not the least of our honors was the winning of the State Championship in football, tennis, and track. During the term, several delightful comedies were presented. The Glee Cub concluded a successful year with an entertaining performance. TIME MARCHES ON! The sand within the transitory glass Dotli haste, and so our silent minutes pass.” Now that we have attained Seniorship without dignity, we look back longingly to those happy hours which once seemed to drag so slowly, and realize that Nae man can tether time or tide.” The newly-formed Blake Science Club has given an added interest to our activities. The Junior and Senior Literary Societies have varied the regular routine with an inter-class debate. An elaborate and colorful operetta. Lelawala,” is the masterful touch that makes the year’s work complete. And “as we come to the end of a perfect day,” our sorrow is deepened by the announcement of the resignation of Dr. Evans, who has with such admirable dignity upheld and greatly improved our school system during the last thirty-nine years. We are glad, however, that he has a capable successor in Mr. L. W. Jenkins, the present principal of our High School. “The minutes wing their way,” and the horologe chimes for our departure; “Old time will end our story; But no time, if we end well, will end our glory.” MILDRED WILLIAMS. CORNISH WILKINSON. TVinptppn Hundrpd Thirty-four Forty-seven SCRIBBLER Today (Senior Class Poem) Comrades, Together we have traversed the hroad white road, The road leading across the foothills to the uplands—these uplands Sweet with streams cascading from above; The road wandering upward from the valley rich with lilacs and warm loam. Together with Laughter and Youth we have crossed these foothills and this vale Where Thought like a clear stream flows under the poplars; Together we have dabbled here in the broadening dawn and gathered cowslips beside the road. Together we have felt the dawn-breeze from the uplands and mountains—together heard the song of a wild bird far above. Hand in hand We have felt and known the presaging Of Thought and Beauty and Truth and Song. And here The hroad white road branches into paths among the hills. And some will follow the broad steep path ahead To knowledge, to the source of the clear unhurried stream among the pines. And some will follow the hinted, winding path upward to beauty, to the wild bright bird singing alone above. And some will follow the path along high ledges, among gentians and edelweiss— to Freedom. And some will follow nameless paths among primroses and cool, wet grass Where others shall wander. Now we stand together, An unbroken band, Under an opal promise of cobalt day. Breathless we face the dewy morning, where the road forks. When the glowing noon shall usurp this dawn. Let us always remember how we together stood With Laughter and Youth and Thought; with the valley below; And with our paths before us, broad and white, To choose. MARY LOUISE PETTIS. Forty-eight Nineteen Hundred Thirty-four THE 6 SCRIBBLER Tomorrow f(Senior Class Prophecy) “Contemplate all this work of Time ” ‘‘Friends of the class of 1931 of Spartanburg High School, we are gathered here tonight at the home of Senator Douglas Ewen, our old friend, to witness the departure of the year 1943 and the arrival of 1944.” This outburst comes from Raymond Lark, who, in his accustomed dignified manner, is acting as master of ceremonies. His dignity is enhanced by his becoming uniform as captain in the I nited States Army. I he former classmates who have already arrived are Katherine (Hark. Annie White, Jean Flynn, Maxine Reese. Hazele Crawley. I arda Powell, Ruth Sims, Inez Torian, and Sarah Bishop. We learn that these guests have been successful in conducting world-wide tours. Over in a corner of the spacious hall we find a congenial group gaily chattering. They are discussing political affairs, as they are all members of the State Legislature. What a splendid representation: Evelyn late. Alma Linder. Irene Sexton. June McKinney, Nealie Willard, Douglas Phillips. Earl Tuck. Billy Metier. J. 11. Mitchell, and 0. C. Sublet!. George Witherillo (He’s still “Strawberry” to us) and his “Tea-Timers.” composed of John Williams, Charles Atwater, Jack Padgett, Lewis Clayton, Lloyd Cantrell, Hugh Harrison, Julian Foster, Fred Henshaw, Ralph Lands, John Long, Erie Johnson, Donald Taylor, Ross Holmes, and Mac Kennedy, begin the musical program with a popular hit of the day. Meanwhile, other guests are arriving. We greet Boyd Cribb, owner of a chain of newspapers; Bertha Ezell, teacher in the State I niversity: Brian Hodges, the great producer: Sarah Coan, interior decorator: Johnny Smith, automobile racer of note; and Sanchez Mott, operatic star. Immediately there appears another group that is warmly greeted everywhere. They are the national golf champions of 1943 and prove to be Roy Lowe, Letty Wommack, Grey Lancaster, and Mary Galloway. Elizabeth Moore enters and receives congratulations for her success as a designer for Vopuc. She is escorted by Douglass Guess, who is fast becoming a celebrated criminal lawyer. Around him hover those ‘‘tough guys,” Mac White, William Martin. Gilbert Amick, Robert Doggette, and Hugh Hairston. Particular honor is being given the famous actors and actresses of our old class. Hearty applause greets Calvin Fuller, successful author of “Two-Timer,” and his cast: Dena Ballenger, Harold Mahaffey, Lou Bomar, Mlene Cudd. Margaret Aiken. Paulino Wall. Joyce Roper, Yancy Poole, Nolen Penland, Charlotte Wheeler. Eston Crocker, and Helen Friedlander. Many of the sets for this drama have been gorgeously designed by the noted artist, Emmie Weedon. Scarcely have these renowned guests entered, when that glamorous heiress. Toy Hannon, escorted by Joe Montgomery, feature editor of a local newspaper, threads her way through the excited crowd. Bill Ligon, president of the “Tempus Fugit” Clock Company, follows with great dignity. The curtain of an improvised stage at one end of the hall rises and everybody becomes silent. Captain Lark announces that Senator Ewen has surprised us—he has secured twelve dancing girls from the Vanities. They are our old friends Frances Gash. Mary Finch, Elizabeth Furber, Marjorie Henry, Mary Parker, Fay McKinney. Ola Neal, Annie Little. Evelyn Holland, Sue Clary, Mary Willis, and Mary Mell Cherry. As their graceful number is completed and the curtain falls, several couples glide across the floor to the strains of a familiar waltz.. They are Eoline W est and John Lowry, Frances Wallace and J. S. Littlejohn, Sibyl Moore and Chester Law-on, Eudora Hatchette and Jack Hawkins, Louise Deal and Cliff Davis. Eloise Miller and Ben Cox, Harold Swain and Marjorie Puckette. It seems strange to see these friends down on the earth, for they are all skillful aviators and flew here tonight for our “get-together.” We are not surprised to find, as we greet Nancy Means, that she is star reporter for the Times-Journal. She introduces her capable co-workers: Ralph Wingo, Bernard Culver, Owen Wrightson, Frank Faux. T. K. Fletcher, Mary Burrell, Sara Blakely. Ruth Gowan, and Dorothy DuPre. They distribute copies of their paper so that we may read Katherine Ballenger’s feature article a story of Mildred Williams's success as a teacher in a New York settlement. On the front page, also, is Walter Bolen’s vivid account of how his old classmate, Clarence Nolan, became a famous automobile magnate. Mary and Sara Trimmier. giving away souvenirs—tiny toys carved in their own toy shop, circulate more news of old friends who could not be present. J. A. Wolfe, they tell us, is Ambassador to France. Lanier Powell is his Secretary. Winnie Cox and Mary O’Dell are in Europe pursuing courses in music. William Morgan lias gained fame as a chemist. John Forty-nine Nineteen Hundred Thirty-four the SCRIBBLER Murph has developed a wonderful farm where he keeps his famous race-horses. His prize-holding jockeys are Perry Bishop. Thomas Bell. Harry Chapman. Cecil Painter. Wiley McKain. Edward Turner, and Joe Partlow. Horace Arthur is supervisor of the farm. Alice White has become a noted equestrienne and often exhibits the fine horses in the fashionable shows. The last bit of news the Trimmiers give us is that Sarah Vaughan and Frances Ward have recently established a correspondence school that teaches how to develop personality in order not to have “time on your hands.” Exponents of the success of this venture are Wilhelmina Thomas. Sarah Johnson, Ruth Henderson. Edna Harrison, Eleanor Bryson, Hazel Deaton, Annie Lou Cooper, Marie Teseniar. Evelyn Springfield. Barbara Thomson, and Mary Ammons. Old friends are still filing in. and we welcome the new editor of Time Magazine., Mary Louise Pettis. We learn that the newly appointed staff consists of Betty Prince, Frances Chreitzberg, Doris French, Mildred Hunter, Carl Brannon, Jane Warring, Everiell Ivey, Eugene Hunt, and Billy DeWees. Next come Martha Ruff and Horace Sitton, of the Ruff-Sitton Cushion Company. Marion Gash and Enid Jones enter wearing hats in the latest mode. They have designed them in their own exclusive shop on Fifth Avenue in New York City. Bill Huntley, Chief of Police, and J. C. Gowan, his assistant, are the ladies' escorts. Behind these friends saunters Jimmy Joyner, the big ice cream cone manufacturer and private detective on the side. Eileen Rams bottom, Mary DeVore, Louise Crawford, and Agnes Drake hasten to interview Jimmy concerning supplies and protection for their tea-room which has been successfully operated for some time. Over in a secluded corner Cornish Wilkinson is discussing a matter of physics with three other well-known scientists. Roy Bussey, Rives Chalmers, and Ben Creighton. Listeners-in are Arthur White, official car-wrecker for junk piles; John Foster, president of a local cotton mill: lane Amos, Frances Beckelheimer, and Ruth Brown, owners of a flourishing modiste shop; Emily Cudd. Elizabeth Easier, and Doris Feagan. kindergarten instructors; and Joe Ashmore, pitcher for the Yanks. Seated in the next nook is Horace Evans, owner of the Belle Visage Beauty Shoppe. He is surrounded by bis employees: Elizabeth Hendley, Hazel Griffin, Sara Gore, Lois Henson, Janie Lee Stallings, and Lucille Bergeret. Suddenly a cry is beard. Is there a doctor in the bouse?” screams Milton Willis, successful insurance man. Dr. Nan Tinsley, the mysterious young surgeon. Woodrow W illard, coach for Duke University, and Dr. Bill Jones rush to the scene. However, Charles L. Smith, Jr., and Charles Smith, who have gone into the horse-shoe business together to avoid further confusion, have already revived the fainting damsel. She is Florella Brown, who has just completed a record coast-to-coast motor trip. As this excitement d:es. Victoria Elias, blues singer, croons for us several old favorites, “Night and Day” and Will You Love Me in December as You Do in May?” Mary Staples, model in an exclusive dress shop, enters with three buyers for a large New York department store. These ladies are Fay Foster, and Frances and Martha Turner. Annie Arnold and Katherine Anderson tell us of a splendid play to be given in town next week by the Little Theatre. Prominent sponsors of the whole enterprise are Alma Wallace, Hilda Cothran, Nolle Willingham. Lorna Ol.ver, Margial Painter. Louise Tucker, and Eva Teague. Still our old friend are fil:ng in. Here come Gameel Hodge. Robert Hallman, and Glenn Isom, railroad officials; Jennie Hinds. Sara Lee Hughes, and Margaret Jones, librarians: Dorothy Jennings, instructor in elocution; and Clarence Johnson, hotel proprietor. Bill Hill, in his fine radio style, gives us a hill-billy selection on his famous accordion. To the strains of his second number the celebrated dance teams, Dorothy and Tutt Bradford and Bill Burnett and Nellie Sue Camp entertain us with the latest steps. The Silent Mayor. Ned McCallister. enters with his board of party approvers: Roy Hunsinger, Ixmisc Cannon. Ruth Milan. Roy McCall, Irene Marr, Dozier Linder, Wright Macomson. Alma Martin, Fred Keller. Leonard Lenear. and Catherine Mefford. It is nearing midnight. There is a cry of Refreshments!” issued by the druggist. Arwell Pendley. In the dining room we are well served by the group of professional hosts and hostesses, Charles Bryant, Hazel Smith, (diaries Neal. Yenetia Tribble, Vernon Bell. Dorothy Maxey, Claude Bennett. Frances Becknell, Woodrow Seay, Auric Ravan. and Jean Graham. Time marches on! It is nearly midnight. A short comedy skit of high school days is presented. Frances Hines and Edwin Holt take the leading roles. Assisting them are Essie Mae Houston. Robert Hudgens. Mary Hughes. Wallace Hunt. Pauline McAbee. Edith Kelly, Oilie Lou McClure, and Natalie Reeves. As they leave the improvised stage amid great applause, the clock strikes twelve. Virginia Caldwell and Billy Bradley, duo-pianists of national fame, pound the pianos to the tune of Auld Lang Syne” in a desperate attempt to be heard above the roar of the crowd. Finally the whole party sings in chorus, and so we bid farewell to 1943 and to the class of 1934. JEAN GRAHAM. MAC KENNEDY.

It is the policeman of our time system. It governs the ringing of bells that denote changes in schedule to take care of extra-curricula activities. Hence it is the most important as well as the most surprising of our clocks. It has marked joyous events for us: talks in chapel, lectures, entertainments, meetings of our various organizations— in short, all of the “extras” that have helped to round out our high school education. cAdivities Fifty-five SCRIBBLER Cornish Wilkinson, Editor Mary Louise Pettis, Editor Scribbler Staff Editor s-i n-Chief I Cornish Wilkinson Mary Louise Pettis Business Manager Senior Literary Editor. ......Nolen Penland Frances Chreitzberc Mildred Williams Nancy Means Doris French Betty Prince ..Mary Burrell Junior Literary Editors. « Doris Godwin Louise Huchston Tom Perrin Thaddeus Herbert Mary Heed Crook Carol Aiken Athletic Editor.........

Woodrow Willard, a newcomer in the ranks, played blocking back like an old-timer. Melvin Herring—“Fish” to most of us —played into hard luck. A broken ankle forced him out after the fourth game. Better luck next year. “Bubber” Southard, although he was one of the biggest men on the team, was fast on his feet and was always wideawake. J. S.
