1923 THE VIRGINIAN 1924 RICHARD WATSON BUNTING Dick Friend, comrade, and gentleman, could more be said? Dick, our most popular boy, is one on whom Dame Fortune has smiled most generously. The masters of music, art and dancing have each lavishly bestowed upon him the secret of their talent. He has, also, a great gift for acting. But best of all he is a friend to all, and all whom he knows are his friends. May it be said of his undertak- ings in the future, well done, for thus it has been said of him in the past.

ACADEMIC COURSE PAULINE CARY DAVIS u Pony n She hath truly acted in such a way as to secure the love of her neighbor. Polly is a good student and is forever looking on the bright side of life. No one loves a good joke any more than she. We have never seen her smile-it is always a broad grin that greets you. She joined our ranks in the Junior Class, having spent her previous years in Roanoke. We have found her a friend to all, faithful, diligent, and always ready to serve. Lee-Jeffersoniang Glee Club.

465 F!'1 ' ' 1923 THE VIRGINIAN 1924 ERNESTINE ROWE EPPERSON Ernestine Nothing can disturb her good na ture. If you don't believe the above quotation just test it out. We have never seen any- thing excite Ernestine yet. and we further- more believe it is impossible. Through all conditions she retains that same low drole in her voice which we like to hear. We cherish undying grudge against Meadow View for keeping her away from Va. High during her Freshman year. We are sure the future will fmd her in some busy part of the world doing her part and encouraging others to do the same. Lee-Jeffersonian Society.

Nellie does not often have the solitude she loves, for many make demands upon her time.

Whenever she is assigned a task we are assured it will be accomplished to the best of her ability. Faithful not only in big things but also in small things. She will surely Find the success in life which she deserves. Lee-Jeffersonian Society: Glee Club. SCIENTIFIC COURSE

1923 THE VIRGINIAN 1924 EUGENE CASSIDY THOMPSON Preacher Of an excellent and unmatched wit and judgment. Gene is richly endowed with keen com- mon sense and judgment. It seems that it is he who can answer questions when all others fail. As Athletic Editor, he filled the bill ad- mirably. We wonder if he will live up to his nick-name: but in whatever work he pursues may he gain the success he so richly deserves. Lee-Jeffersonian Societyg Basket-ball squadg F oot-ball squad.
