The Stespean, Nineteen Twenty-Seven Mayme Hensley Besides being Secretary of her class, Mayme is also president of the Dramatic Club, vice- president of the French Club, vice-president of the Educational Association and a mem- ber of the Glee Club. What more could be said? Mayme has indicated that the teach- ing profession will claim her after gradua- tion, and with her genial personality, her keen sense of humor and her steady sincerity, she is assured of success in that field. And could one find a more popular girl in Speed Hall? Ask Jeanna and Susie! Taylor Jarvls Taylor is one of the four Jarvis Brothers who are graduating from Union this June; two from the Academy, and two from the college. He is a serious-minded young man; we think his devotion to his beloved Math has made him so, but he claims it is his travails as a student teacher. That Taylor does have his humorous side was evidenced when he very skillfully took the part of the stuttering tailor in the Taming of the Shrew. He also lends a voice in the Glee Club and the Chorus. Irexe Byrd Dyer This little lady hails from Arkansas, where she was a student at the State University for three years — that is, until Prof. Dyer persuad- ed her to take the degree of M.R.S. So thanks to his persuasive powers, we have her as one of our Seniors. Mrs. Dyer is very much alive and is an interested worker in many of the student activities — besides keep- ing house and managing a husband! The Dramatic Club also claims some of her time.
