lil ROI 1930 THE CHANTICLEER Senior Glass Clyoem., IVES of freshmen all remind us Joyous everlasting days That our sorrows are behind us And our future only happy Ways. But the faculty and students Led us on in paths of right Took away our childish fancies Taught us how to work and fight. Then as sophomores we stumbled With a load of care and books Looking forward with ambition Stealing many backward looks. The junior class in '28 Led in football, fun and play Some times studied-always late Unless athletics led the Way. Seniors real, seniors earnest Treading on the sands of time Facing eagerly the future With diplomas on our minds. We are gathered here the last time And though our hearts are so depressed We can say with grateful hearts Good bye old S. C. H. S. MILTON ALEXANDER W- on

VII IW 12 THE CHANTICLEER 1930 1011 ' KV Maggie Pendergrass is a grey-haired old maid. Big goggle glasses adorn her nose and she is pegging away at Yale University trying to get her Ph. D. Katie Mae Bridges owns a beauty parlor in Paris, and she has the rep- utation for putting the kinks in and taking the wrinkles out to perfection. Lucille Dearman, is a leader in New York society and lives in one of the most beautiful mansions on the Hudson. Mary Mobley is teaching the dumb how to talk. She likes her position very much. Milton Alexander, our class poet, having won lasting fame in dimming the classics of Chaucer by his internationally known poems, is now writing for the American Magazine. Lucille Ginn is Coaching one of the all Southern basketball teams and receives most of her instructions from Ebb James. Her prowess on local courts made her a national figure in sports. Fousta Woods spends most of his time in his laboratory delving into the mysteries of science, trying to discover the formula for a good disposition. Joseph McAlpin is working in a big bakery but spends most of his time dodging the boss. He still tells of the year he failed to make the football team because of inexperience. Jewell Oates is the mistress of a large ranch in Texas and is a favorite of the cowboys. Gertrude Swain's curly locks and sweet smile has won her a place on the silver screen. Her soft Southern voice has also made a hit in the movie world. A hazy mist enveloped the mouth of the telescope. Suddenly I realized that it was all a vision. I was alone. I withdrew my gaze from the tele- scope and sat pondering over the illusion. I was very lonely. The mist spread with a slow deliberateness. A bank of fog sank over the observa- tory.
