RICHARD LYNN EVANS, JR. Dublin, Virginia “A lifeniofsstudy, eae Having decided to sacrifice home and friends for the life of study and meditation at a prep school, Lynn came to VES last year. Everyone soon found him to be a friend. Although he often gripes need- lessly about the amount of studying he thinks he needs to do, R. Lynn has managed to keep a rather good academic record. During most of the season, he has kept the basket- ball courts well scuffed. In the spring, he has been found throwing a small rubber disc all over the lower field. His proficiency with the rubber flotchet has earned him a varsity letter in track. Lynn usually keeps cool in most circumstances, and this has had the effect of establishing a firm foundation with the lassies on the local Xanadu. He will be long remembered by them and by us. . . and meditation.”

“Now turn your head, Bambi.” “Look who just blew in.. .” RALPH LANIER EDWARDS, JR. Morganton, North Carolina In his four years at VES, Ralph has added much to school life. His vibrant personality has won him many friends, students and faculty alike. For three years he has played football. He spent one year on the J.V. team and two years on the freshman squad, of which he was co-captain. He enjoys soccer and has shown great potential this year in helping the team to a successful season. Managing both cross-country and track, he has aided the Bishop harriers greatly. As a member of the choir-glee club, he is said to be one of the best tenors in that section. He has consistently ranked in the upper-half of his class. Without Rufus, VES will not be the same. His is a personality that all respect, and his presence will be greatly missed.

ALEXANDER GRAHAM FLOYD Oxford, North Carolina A hard-driving Tar Heel, Alex came to VES three years ago. He has done well in every aspect of school life. Despite his size, he has played varsity football for two years, nailing a starting halfback spot as a senior. The loss of a few teeth has further reduced his weight, but he has continued —and out- standingly. Known by his classmates for his good nature, his teachers have been quick to recognize him as a very conscientious student. With his excellence in academics and athletics, he has served on the stu- dent vestry, as sergeant-at-arms of the junior class, and as a counselor on the Honor Committee. As Alex has represented North Carolina well in his years at VES, so he will represent VES well at U.N.C., and beyond. “And now for a word from our alternate sponsor: POLIDENT.”
