Clark Churchwcll was pilot. Carlton McKinney, engineer; Ruth Howard, head cook; Rosa Baker, waitress; and Mr. Milton Beavers, sponsor. With the entire class as a crew, sailing seemed easy. Everyone was enjoying the ride, but when we checked up at the end of the term we found that five of our crew had given up the test and had descended in a parachute. On September 10, 1928. we sailed by a Freshman plane and three new members and new sponsors, Mr. and Mrs. Carl G. Clifft, were added to our crew, making seventeen. During our ride onward. Cupid sent his dart into the hearts of four members of our class. Again the crew seemed to be enjoying their ride. At the end of the term we found four had descended on a ladder and boarded another ship. Our sponsors also had changed planes. On September 6. 1929, we were still traveling fine when a strange plane sailed by. and transferred eight new members and a new sponsor, Mrs. Elmer Davenport, making fifteen in our crew. We found at the end of this term that one of our members had fallen into the sea of matrimony, and three others including our sponsor, had been carried away by another plane. On September 5, 1920, we were getting up to a high speed when we passed by a rival plane and picked up five new members. Two were sponsors, Mr. and Mrs. Osie Ginn. This made thirteen members in our last year of the flight. Fate seemed against us and our crew was diminished by one, Elbert Angeley, who went to the sanitarium to be treated in order to obtain health. The two Kunkel boys, Aulcie and Elzey, went to another station of learning. This left ten beside our sponsors. They are: Alma Jones, our president, Beatrice McKinney, Onita Cun- ningham, Ruth Howard. Rosa Baker. Clark Churchwell. W. D. Laing. Leo Cook, Carlton Mc- Kinney, and Clarence Weeks. Only four, Ruth, Rosa. Clark, and Carlton, rode the plane the entire four years, yet the ten were left to make the safe landing at the entrance to the Col- lege of Higher Learning. Rosa Baker, Reporter. Pike Path of Life © © © The Path of Light leads onward. We know not what the end; But we travel only forward, As do the rest of men. The Seniors are traveling onward. Led by a shining light That is sent out by our Sponsor; He will lead us through the night. Our Path of Life, it may be short. And then it may be long. But we have not a thing to fear; We will travel it with a song. The Path may lead us through the Shade. And the Darkness of despair; But we will travel onward. And the sky will soon be fair. The Path leads always forward. If we travel an unbeaten track. We should look all times before us. For there is no turning back. —By Carlton McKinney. 1 i) 3 Eighteen ”
