OUTSTANDING SENIORS VIRGINIA VAUGHAN serves mention when naming the outstanding The busy little redhead we see so much around the Peanut Picker office is Virginia Vaughan, whom we know main¬ ly as the editor of our school paper. Despite the difficulty of getting the paper out because of wartime shortages, we have had our Peanut Picker as usual this year, and if anything, it has been as good as or better than those of preceding years. For this alone she deserves to be one of our leading seniors. But Virginia ' s activities do not stop here. She is also re¬ porter of the Wranglers’ Club, and a member of the Senate. In¬ terested in club work, she be¬ longs to the Hi-Y Club, the Play- makers, and the Sigma-Sigma. Without a doubt, Virginia de¬ seniors. Personality, scholarship, de¬ pendability—all go into the mak¬ ing of another outstanding senior, Tommy Whitfield. This year ' s Senior Class President has indeed proven himself prominent in all fields of school activity. He has served for many years as a member of the Student Senate and last year his classmates elected him president of the Junior Class. It was this senior who boosted the sales of The 1944 Peanut to a high level. During football season he took a very active part in selling conces¬ sions at the games. He is an (Hit¬ standing member of the Boys’ Senior Hi-Y Club and is a tre¬ mendous aid to many other activ¬ ities. A student with such tal¬ ents and ability as Tommy can¬ not help stand out not only among the members of the Senior Class but also among the whole student body of Suffolk High School.

OUTSTANDING SENIORS Seldom it is that one finds a student so popular and well- liked as Jerome Felton. Nor is it an easy task to find one so gifted with the gift of leadership. Yet, here we have such a student. In his junior year he was elected vice-president of the Student Senate, and this year he has won the most coveted position in school—president of the Student Body. He has taken a great in¬ terest in sports, serving as a cheerleader last season and as manager of the 1943 football team. In such organizations as the Boys’ Senior Hi-Y and the Wranglers’ Club, he has taken a very active part. These many activities together with his friendliness and thoughtfulness for others make Jerome a truly prominent senior. JEROME FELTON Probably no one else in the Senior class deserves the title, “the busiest girl in Suffolk High,” more than Virginia Mc- Clenny. We have all seen her, time and time again, rushing around school, managing some¬ how not only to find time to do everything, but also to do it well. Her efficiency and willingness to work have made her one of the leaders in all as| ects of school life. With all her extra-curricu¬ lar activities, she has been able to keep her grades above aver¬ age. Her record speaks for it¬ self. This year she has served capably as co-editor of The Peanut, chairman of the assem¬ bly committee, and heads editor of the Peanut Picker. It goes without saying that she has also been an active member of many clubs. The student body has every reason to be grateful to Virginia for the time and work she has spent in her duties. The services she has rendered to Suffolk High School during her last four years here make Virginia a distinctive senior. VTKtilNIA McCLKNNY
