.1 .es 1 1. E. .... 1 - b ..... .. L1-'FE T s--- The Ayeni CNVith apologies to Spraguej Turn to the Ayeni-its teeming pages survey, Big with the wonders of each passing day, Resumes, wills and histories, faculty and board of education Departments, classes and organizations, snapshots and pictures of all descriptions, A, and I. hardly deems the busy year is done, Till its keen eye along the Ayeni has rung The dignified senior throws her dignity by And reads the past year's activities with a sigh While the grave faculty puts its glasses on And gives a censure or a tribute for every Word thereon. The juniors, sophomores, and the freshmen, too, Turn the pages o'er and o'er to get each angle and view, And when the leaves of this Ayeni are yellow from age, There'll be a smile and a tear for every treasured page. The Ayeni Staff Due to the willing application to this pleasant task, supplemented by the journalistic, creative, and artistic ability of the Ayeni staiif, a work of ART has been performed. What is ART but TRUTH? And since this book be true, how can it be anything but arta The Ayeni yearbook of 1931 needs no explanationg its purpose is to give photographs and printed memories to cherish in the years to come. It is a picture of how the scholastic year of 1931 has been spent. The sponsor and adviser of the Ayeni staff, Dean G. XV. Core, is one who has sure, sound, practical experience, and a superior knowledge. Of the sixteen members of the official Ayeni staff only four are from out of the state. The editor- in-chief hails from Bristol and a man of no mean ability. His assistant, Miss Eddean Morris of Owensboro, Ky., has led her class for four consecutive years. The advertising manager, Mr. Ned Rawls of Brownsville, and his assistant, Mr. Frank Orndorff of Russellville, Ky., with the business manager, Mr. Clinton Derricks of Chattanooga, and his assistant, Mr. Lee Roy Ferguson of Clarksville, have proved that they shall be successful business men by their outstanding work. Mr. james Ripley Taylor, of Ripley, speaks and writes a language of the gridiron, the tennis and basketball court, the track and the baseball diamond. In short, he is the athletic editor. The etiicient artists are Mr. James Mayberry, art editor, of Nashvilleg Mr. Everett Ricks, Raleigh, N. C.: Mr. James Adams and Miss Phinetta Baker, of Nashville, assistants, affirm that an Ayeni without real art is incomplete. Wliat is a yearbook without its pictures and photographs? VVith them it is a treasure untold. The photograph editor is Miss F. Bernice Conyers, of Cartersville, Ga., and her assistant, Miss Georgia jenkins, Nashville. The copy editor, Miss Gennie Morgan, Knoxville, and her assistant, Miss Myrtle Roberts, of Clarks- ville, complete the Ayeni staff of 1931. On April 3, 1931, Miss Phinetta Baker entertained with a formal dinner and dance, the olificial staff of the Ayeni. The menu was delicious, consisting of grape fruit macedone, chicken pate, petit pois a la prinlaniere, sweet potato puree, jardiniere salad, cranberry aspic a la orange, ice cream and cake. For a brief while the stalT put away their cares and heavy responsibilities and every one had a gorgeous time. The stat? does not say that it has worked and toiled although that is quite possible, but because of the joy and delight it has received from this task, work ceased to be work and became a pleasure. - 1 1 gf: g g -Axfiasiistgsg kgs pair: - ---- -4- 4 -W Q..
