St. John's Echoes, 19 30 19 RUTH LaMOTTE Ruth joined us late but better late than never - - and when she did get here she made herself so indispensable that we have wondered ever since how we grot along: without her. She quickly showed her dramatic ability in the Senior Follies and the Junior Revue. Then the crown- ing glory, she starred in the Senior play. President St. John’s Society '30; basket- ball squad '30; Senior play; baseball spon- sor ’30; Block D ’30. RUTH RUSS Ruth's winsome face and sweet smile have brightened our classroom for two years — our only regret is that she could not have come sooner and stayed longer! Member of St. John’s Literary Society; Senior monitor. PEARL TOWNSEND MUNN Who is the soft-voiced, brown-eyed maiden who flashes a smile at you in passing? This is one of the Pearls of the Pee Dee and that means a Pearl of great price. Critic Lanier Society '29; book monitor 30; social editor Junior Bulletin ’29: prize essay ’29; censor Lanier ’30. EDITH ELIZABETH REGISTER Edith has a poise which many strive for but few attain. While she is one of the beauties of the class she has made her- self useful as well as ornamental. Her songs in the Junior Revue helped it to go over with a bang and were largely re- sponsible for the success of the Senior play. Secretary Lanier '27: vice president Lanier 27; Orchestra ’27. ’28.
