I recall, too, that they had two skilled tap dancers, Dorothy Sutton and Mildred Greene, in their class. Mr. X. —And as for athletics, all I have to do is to remember that A. I). Brinkley, “Beck ’ Norfleet, and C. G. Skinner were members of that class. Mrs. X. —The class also had a champion chalk-thrower, Florine Riddick. Mr. X. —And then comes that Freshman elass.
