EUGENE DAVIS FUNKHOUSER “Gene” Will anyone of the Seniors ever forget that humorous guy with the exquisite curley hair? That’s “Gene!” “Gene”, likable, entertaining, witty, is an easy person with which to get along. “Gene” is thoughtful at times but these moods are seldom. He hopes to attend V. P. I. and become a veterinary after the war. Imagine “Gene” as a horse doctor!

Football Squad, Baseball Team, Dramatic Club, Monogram Club; Assistant Editor:.The Con¬ federate; Sports Editor: “Stonewall News” ROBERT BRUCE GIBBS “Bobby” Bobby, as a rule, is a liberal-minded, tolerant person with a light, pleasing disposition. He is liked by everyone—in other words, he’s “a right guy.” He is not to be led; his ability to definitely make up his mind sets him off from the crowd and gives him his individu¬ alistic, slightly reserved personality. He is inclined to do only what he wishes—but usually has the good judgment to do the proper things at the proper time. He is a veteran of two years of a foreign language. One of the few boys to have undertaken such a grave venture, he came through with flying colors. ACTIVITIES 1941- 1942—Member:. Football Squad, Baseball Team 1942- 1943—Member:.

WILLIAM LYNNWOOD CARPENTER “Lynn” Lynn has loads of fun laughing when he pulls pranks on his fellow Seniors. Apparently quiet and timid, he doesn’t say much until his temper is riled. Then he takes up for himself. He is well-liked, less troublesome to the teachers than any other boy in the Senior Class, and enjoys baseball and foot¬ ball. Once he puts his mind to do something, he usually ac¬ complishes it. He is an avid baseball fan and knows the sta¬ tistics on practically any game or any player that is mentioned. Stonewall regrets to lose Lynn, with his conservative ways, his swell disposition and his good sportsmanship. ACTIVITIES 1941- 1942—Member:. Hobby Club, Baseball Team 1942- 1943—Member:.Athletic Club, Baseball Team 1943- 1944—President: Monogram Club; Member: Stonewall News Staff, Baseball Team. 1944- 1945—Member: Monogram Club, Stonewall News Staff, Football Squad and Baseball Team HOWARD NEWTON CARPER, JR. “Fignewton” Whenever an idea is needed by the Senior Class, Howard fills the bill. Expert in the line of humorous wisecracks, he always has an answer to everything. An excellent leader, one has merely to look at his extra-curricular activities to understand his qualities. Polite, with dreamy moods, he is the average American student. Cautious in all he attempts, he always figures things out slowly and carefully and then gives his answer. His ambition is to become an airpiane engineer and we wish him luck in this field.

She is a good student and also one of the few blondes of the Senior Class. You will find her a rare good pal an d one who takes part in all school activities. She is not sure of her future but maybe it’s the Wacs ? ? ? ? We see she has really been drilling that group in marching! Seriously though, we know she will be a great success, especially if she makes good use of her typing ability.

HELEN JUANITA GORDON “Helen” Helen is one of the quiet, serious girls in the Senior Class, but she is well liked by everyone. She studies quite a lot and always has her homework up-to-date. Her expert typing gives her a job as typist on the Stonewall News and also on The Confederate Staff. If there is anything to be done, you can depend on Helen trying to help in any way she can.
