I 1 J I I § 4 § May They Never Be Forgotten “The world’s a theatre, The earth’s a stage, Which God and nature Do with actors fill.” At the close of our Senior year the curtain falls on our four years — more or less — of continuous performance. Time will work busily to obliterate even a memory of the role played by each of us, but this Annual may serve as a program which we can take home, and lay beside the family album. Some day we will pick it up, and laugh at the funny boys and girls, and even a tear may find its way to the picture that some Senior calls “Grandma” or “Grandpa.” Time will be the reviewer. I can see all of them, each in his individual act even now. Look! There is — § M § 17 1 i 1 i 1 1 1 1 1 v b;c -s i i i f i ' i ' i i i i ' i ' 1 ;g 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 i 1 1 1 i The Virginian CHARLES HOMER HARRIS Academic “ Go ’way, little boy, you can’t play with us. You will have to grow some.” Stung by these words little “Swede” went away and worked and worked and grew and grew ’till he was a big little man. Hence the bulldog of the gridiron and lightning of the basket-ball court, and, the President of our class — our “Tige!” BESSIE COFFEY Commercial Can’t you just hear the basket-ball fans shouting “Bessie, Bessie! Rah for Captain Coffey!” If you can’t, you don’t know Bess — and you are missing some- thing, for she was Subscription Manager of the Little Virginian, Vice-President of her class, and a basket-ball player par excellence. HELEN MAINOUS Academic Our class had its full quota of Helens, but we would have been lucky had there been even more if all of them could have brought to us the sunshine and joy that Helen’s gay spirit never failed to do. CARRIE LEE FERGUSON There is something intriguing about a surprise, and Carrie Lee’s chief charac- teristic is furnishing dazzling surprises of disposition and accomplishment to the delectation of her many admirers. 18 ■ 1 - 5 1 1 i 1 i 1 1 1 1 1 1 ' 1 1 1 1 ' 1 1 1 1 1 ' 1 1 i 1 1 1 1 1 1 wVi3!cs y 1 1 wv i5!c.Vv 1 1 wv i3!ci v 1 1 wVi3!(SVw 1 1 wViDiGVw 1 1 wvsicrv 1 1 wv ' 53!gvw i i wViD ciVw 1 1 1 1 wVi5!c5V 1 1 1 1 wvi5fe v 1 1 wvi3i s v i iw i N iiw i iiwV3! iiwVSiS i The Virginian iwvSi nw ? i!wVSi iiwVS!SVvil RUBY WEATHERLY Commercial Friendliness and helpfulness just bubble over in Ruby — A “go-getter” after grades, and other good things she is, too! CARL TRANUM Scien tific Carl has found that after all there is nothing like Shakespeare’s philosophy — “Frame your heart to mirth and merri- ment, which bars a thousand harms, and lengthens life. ” He has ever been an outstanding member in many circles, and especially so in his Senior year as Editor- in-Chief of the Annual. While it is true “that none can express thee though all should approve thee,” yet we are content that success will be the only fitting climax for a career with such bright prospects. JULIA KELLY Academic “Exceeding fair she was not; and yet fair In that she never studied to be farier Than nature made her; beauty cost her nothing, Her virtues were so rare.” Though with playing basket-ball, being secretary of the class, leading cheers, and capturing subscriptions for the Little Virginian, she had little time to stop and powder her nose, our Julia did not go unobserved. STUART CARTER General Senior dignity was not a surplus product in the Class of ’29, and how we would have managed even a fair supply of it without Stuart is a problem we prefer not to contemplate. 19 1 1 1 i i ' 1 i i i 1 1 1 1 1 i i The Virginian s ? ' I z 4 ? i y A? 1 I ’§ | | | | 1 ' § I 1 7 A? § ' § GEORGIA STONE Scien tific It has been said that every day you live you paint on a big canvas a picture of your life. It would indeed be a beau- tiful picture that could portray the slow drawl of her voice, the spontaneity of her smile, and the agreeableness of her na- ture. RUTH TALLMAN General Throughout the four years that Ruth has been in High School none has heard her complain when the assignments are hard, or when things don’t break just right. What more could anyone ask than to be able to take things as they find them and like them for their hardness? JOHN KING General He takes nothing too seriously and tackles life’s problems as they come. John is known for his red hair, good nature, and generosity. When any of the boys need a cigarette or “two bits,” John is the big-hearted boy. His work as Class Legator and Assistant Business Manager of the Little Virginian was very char- acteristic of “Yon.” VIOLETTE WISLER General Maidens are like blossoms, according to the poets, and certainly our Violette is not unlike her namesake. Not too shyly timid, however, as her decided and brilliant opinions often proved. As Society Editor of the Annual she was an indispensable cog in our wheel. i I ? 4 i ? A W 4 x •A- I ? 20 The Virginian ii iii iii sviiiw h § r $ 4 § 4 ? j I I § . 43 § I i it X 4 4 § 1 KATHLEEN WILLIS Academic Lord Byron considered animation the most potent of all feminine charms. How he would have enjoyed our sparkling, vivacious Kathleen! Perhaps almost as much as we have! RUTH WARREN Academic Some people learn a lot but talk so much they don’t get time to remember what they learn. We know Ruth learns much for she talks little. She has only been at Virginia High two years but on each of our little tablets of memory, beside the name of Ruth is a little ace with a big meaning. PAUL WRIGHT General A sturdy determination to win out, a grim persistency whose results make reflections on “Tink’s” career most gratifying are his truly enviable char- acteristics. Two years of varsity football tell part of the tale. PEARL PITTS Commercial Given a conscience always alert, a sense of duty intensely alive, a keen determi- nation to make good, and you have a con- ception of Pearl’s attitude toward school and its duties. Another name that is not a misnomer. 4 ? ? 4 ? 4 21 X The Virginian 4 § 4 § I i .a § 4 § .i 4 § 4 § I 4 § HELEN HURLEY Commercial Since Junior High days Helen has often surprised and delighted teachers and classmates with her ability to supply the needed information just when the recitation threatened to be a failure. JAMES MAINES Commercial Qualities of real worth — unobtrusive goodness and dependability — are insepar- able from thoughts of James. CATHERINE KABLER Academic We don’t know whether this is biologi- cally or horticulturally possible, but if we wanted a duplicate of Catherine, here’s what our specifications would be: One rose, the best of brains, a ton of person- ality, a carload of animation, a ship load of common sense; mix well and add pepper. HELEN HUGHES Commercial “Something ’bout” Helen’s eyes that always called to mind the couplet that goes like this — “That blue and bright-eyed floweret of the brook, Hope’s gentle gem, the sweet forget- me-not. ” Truly her flower as far as her classmates are concerned. 22 l. r c?.

' SVii 4 ,z § z 45 § .1 % 4 § THELMA SHARRETT General At the close of one’s school days, the consciousness of never having caused a moment’s worry or uneasiness to one’s teachers must be strangely comforting. We congratulate Thelma on this accom- plishment as well as many others. LAWRENCE KELLY General Faith, me lad, and your personality reminds me of the shamrock of ould Ireland, refreshing as the green of its leaves. And for each leaf you have a quality that alone would make you likeable. Persevering you are and agree- able though argumentative. Your smile is as good as kissing the Blarney Stone. DOLLY CHRISTIAN General The school is a place of study. Dolly has grasped this. She is “studious of ease and fond of humble things. ” ALBERT SIMCOX General Few philosophers who have not dis- pensed advice at one time or another about the benefits to be derived from the old adage, “Keep Smilin’ In the face of all difficulties, Albert has stuck to this as his motto, and who dares deny that it is a good one? The Virginian ifc iiw iiw Si iiw teVN?! VIOLET GILLIAM Commercial The saddest thing in life is that we must ever live in profile. Violet and Virginia laugh at such cynicism, for they know how to march side by side down life’s trail — lucky Gilliams. WILLIAM STEPPE General “And many strokes, with a little axe Hew down and fell the hardest-timbered oak. ” The proverbial welkin did not ring with Bill’s chopping at the tree of knowledge, but after all noise is a passing thing. What counts is that Bill felled the tree and hauled home the wood. HELEN GODSEY Academic The forest is big; the voice of the stream is loud, even sweet. For a moment dis- regard the grandeur of the forest and the voice of the stream. Stoop low and look at the little violet at your feet; not very large is it, and certianly not loud. There you have a simile of Helen, not obtrusive but all the more enjoyable for her shyness. WALTER MAIDEN General Sometimes things go wrong — skies are overcast, and prospects gloomy. We dis- covered what to do at such times — find “Peanut!” If he didn’t have us joining his chorus of “Wait ’Till the Clouds Roll By,” our blues were incurable indeed. Walter’s is the original “ helping hand ” — on the Little Virginian Staff, in the orchestra, and Glee Club.

Could one girl ask more of her good fairy? Convincingly she justified that last adjective as Local Editor of the Little Virginian and Art Editor of the Virginian. Nfc ' ROBERT CASE Academic Silent, unassuming, ready to serve, eager to please. At first glance you will ex- claim, “A gentleman.” Nfc ' LILLIAN BROCKMAN General Lillian is like electric lights — we have had her such a comparatively short time, but we wonder what we ever did without her. FRANK MOORE Commercial The worst that could be said of Frank was that he did not “toot his own horn.” We are incompetent to say the best that could be said of him but we can mention a few of his qualities. He was cheerful, consistent in his work, and gentlemanly in his actions. His friends were many and his foes we do not know. h. ' ? 4 r l k ? 4 ? 4 ? ? 25 The Virginian i vVSfeVv i i wfSfeVv 1 1 wvzfevw w6 ' fa v i LOUISE POWELL Academic A student in every phase of the word, but not hiding her personality under her books. Her friends knew her A’s meant Admirable. ESTELLE GRIFFIN General “Still waters run deep,” but who likes things that are always changing? We have Estelle. She is still, deep and never changes. Throughout her High School days she has remained a student without variation. CHARLES HARKRADER Academic Charlie was the Class Prophet, and it is only fair that we be allowed to prophesy for our prophet. He is a prince of fellows so he might someday be a king; but now kings are so unoriginal we will say that Charlie will continue as he always has been, witty, intellectual, well-liked Charlie. THERESA KILLINGER General A true example of that wonderful com- bination of “beauty and intellect in its rarest form. ” Theresa, in the four seem- ingly short years which she has been with us has proven a real friend and her ex- ceedingly good nature will make Theresa linger in our minds in the years to come.

Her work as Business Manager of the Virginian and Local Editor of the Little Virginian mirrors these qualities. Time’s eraser will indeed crumble before her memory fades. HARMON PIPPIN Scien tific The Circulation Manager of the Little Virginian was as faithful a paper boy as you could find, but we lived in fear that he would take an edition to the laboratory and test it for its chemical composition; and we knew if it didn’t prove up right he wouldn’t deliver it, for he only delivered the best of goods. MABEL COOPER Academic She was Poetry Editor of the Little Virginian, and well do I remember the way she said: “ Do you call this poetry, Violets are blue, and roses are red; if you do then your brain children are disgracing your head. ” Frankness was duty, and duty was virtue with Mabel. ISABEL BUCHANAN Academic Isabel is convincing proof that “Silence is more eloquent than words. ” Her silence has told us things that could not have been told in words. It has proved to us that she is entirely likeable, always agreeable, and constantly pleasant.

Can’t you just see Nancye as she calls “Fifteen for team. ” In appreciation of her worth as Class Historian and Sport Editor of the Little Virginian, let’s give “fifteen” for Nancye — strong now! N 5 K NANNIE KATE BARKER Commercial Brown-eyed and shy, small and self- effacing, but right there when the test comes! Nannie Kate demonstrated the old adage about small things and precious packages. EARLE JACKSON General “I dare do all that may become a man.” That is a quotation that Earle might well quote, but one which would be entirely unnecessary in the presence of anyone that knows him. Four years is sufficient time to know anyone. Earle’s work on the gridiron and as Class Poet has proven to us that he is a man. EVELYN GOOD Academic “The music in my heart I bore Long after it was heard no more.” During the last two acts of our little play, Evelyn was the musician, and though we will remember her playing long, we will remember the music of her personality longer, for she struck a note with us that had no discord. 1 1 1 1 1 f 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 •I 5 CLARA WADE l z s Commercial Few of us annexed as many A’s and B+’s as Clara’s record reveals. High up on that famous “normal distribution curve” she ranks. Q V JOHN SENEKER .1 I ' § i 4 5 I § | 9 I § J § I 1 General Ever the spur of ambition touched John’s flagging spirit at the right time, and invariably he “came through.” To conquer ultimately is no mean aim. MILDRED HOOD Academic Among the modern conveniences of Virginia High is a pipe line from the Pierian Spring. Its waters are not very popular and most of us sip and gag, while Mildred drinks in gulps and enjoys it. When not at the fountain she is writing literary hits for the Little Virginian, arching the basket-ball through the hoop, or tickling with equal ease the keys of the typewriter or piano. HERBERT DISHNER Commercial A synonym for steadfastness and sin- cerity is Herbert. A type of unselfish friend and student sure to be remembered. § 4 § i Virginian i vVSfeVv i 1 1 1 1 i ifcV iifc iiwi iifc SVvi The Virginian iwV yvnw ! iiwV iiw 5i il LAVINIA MUMPOWER General While “ Knowledge is the hill which few may wish to climb, ” Lavinia’s ascent has been a pleasure to share, and her gracious presence has made us forget many a steep place along the trail. Nfc ' JAMES HOLMES J, z General We are sorry that Jimmie’s health was never good during his high school years, but did Jimmie’s bad health keep him from serving? Not in the least! Every football man knows that when a rub- down was needed or a sweat shirt couldn’t be found, he just had to say “Jimmie,” and things just went right. N ' ' 1 i 1 i 1 i i i v o;c ' [ i IRENE HAGAN Academic Shamrock is Irene’s favorite flower but she serves us as a four-leaf clover. Her enticing Irish laugh and her way of fitting in make her easy to know and hard to forget. WALDO MILES Scientific Waldo had a devastating personality. When he wasn’t breaking hearts, he was ripping up opposing football lines, cracking books, or gouging out literary bits for the Little Virginian — devastating in- deed, but his seeming violence built him friends and created for him a place in the hearts of all he met.

J ' § l k § l k k JANE WEATHERLY Commercial We all tire of the trivial, insignificant affairs of life upon which we usually spend too much time and thought. Something substantial and lasting we gladly welcome. Jane was the embodi- ment of these qualities in the Class of ’29. NANNIE MAE LEONARD Commercial Rare ability to concentrate on the mat- ter in hand — rarer still — power to win only admiration from teachers and school mates paint a true picture of Nannie Mae’s talents. EARL COALSON General Great was the woe in high schooldom. Another cheer leader was needed and who should volunteer but Earl? Then the Rahs grew large and foes were van- quished ever after. MARY SHIRREFFS Commercial Salesmanship of herself is an art Mary never had to practice. Her serious brown eyes and low, clear voice always con- vinced every teacher that she was fail- proof. 4 ? w, 4 ? ' S, ? ? i The Virginian ETNA KABLER General Who would — or could — forget the gay, irresistible sunbeam that Etna’s presence made in class-room, on the stage, or flitting down the hall? “Most popular girl” is one way of describing her. HOWARD MILLER General “And then the whining schoolboy, with his shining morning face; Creeping like a snail, unwillingly to school. ” But wait! See that flash on the grid- iron, that Hawkeye on the court. That’s “Doc!” Captain, they call him on the basket-ball court. MARIANNE ROBERTS Academic A charge of dynamite so charmingly camouflaged that you really enjoyed its explosion. The burnished bronze of “Mike’s” hair did make you fear an explosion at any time and that is why she was so efficient as class treasurer. Her dynamic personality just scared the coin into the class coffers. CARL STONE Scien tide Always neat of appearance, always cor- rect of manner, unfailingly studious. Never does a worm crawl by or a flame flicker but that Carl wants to know, and generally does know, why. A Chesterfield by nature and a scientist by preference, he made an ideal Business Manager for the Little Virginian. ¥ i ? i ? i ? I ? i t i si ? i ? i ? z 32 k ? i.

The pot was heaped high with friends, a coin of the Gods. Everyone but Apollo had played his card, and strange cards they were! Each bore the name of a mortal with the value written where the gods above could see. Zeus had played beauty and intelligence. He wins! Oh, no! Apollo plays Elma, and is the winner. For she is the joker — a com- bination of all plus personality. CLAUDE CROCKETT General Diogenes had traveled long, and his lantern was burning low. He had grown old and still he had found no one whom he thought was a man. As he was stealing down the halls of Virginia High, his lantern flared up. He stopped. There was “Clumsy,” Editor of the Little Vir- ginian, and quarterback of Virginia’s football eleven. Out went the lantern, for the search was ended. Here was a man! ESTELLE EVERSOLE Commercial “Just being happy” is a persuasive way of preaching good cheer and opti- mism. How many times “Blondie” help- ed us just like that! JUANITA JONES Academic “Old King Cole was a merry ole soul, And a merry ole soul was he. The old king died and they buried his hide, But they left his soul to me.” So sings Mollie, a queen of the basket- ball court and Exchange Editor of the Little Virginian. Gone are the fiddlers three and well that they are, for the music of Mollie’s laugh would put them to shame. £ k 33 34 1 1 1 ' 1 i 1 1 1 1 1 p:cv i 1 i « iwvSfeVwnvVSi SVviiwvS?5VwiivvS?eVji The Virginian iwv i iiw i ii i iiw ! . MARGARET SMITH Commercial Which adjectives would you prefer as descriptive of you — frivolous, flighty, uncertain and erratic, or sensible, con- stant, faithful and conscientious? Margaret chose the latter group to develop as her characteristics. VIRGINIA GILLIAM Commercial The saddest thing in life is that we must ever live in profile. Violet and Virginia laugh at such cynicism, for they know how to march side by side down life’s trail — lucky Gilliams. MAXIE WHITE Academic Whether it be in Latin, English, or Math class, Maxie is the “shining light.” With a pleasing personality and a natural thirst for knowledge she is sure to make a success in anything which she may enter. NEWTON BUSH General Mercury may well look to his wings when Bush dons the moleskin or basket- ball trunks. “A fig for care and a fig for woe, If I can’t pay, why I can owe. ” — that’s Bush. 1 1 1 1 1 I ' 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 i ' i ' i 1 1 i 1 i i 1 1 1 1 1 1 vvsr(i% 1 1 1 1 1 1 wv !g% , i , ( i w )!g. i i 1 1 s v 3:c. i ( , i 1 1 s d: i wvStcvv i i wvs!Svw 1 1 wVi5!GVv i i wvstSvw i The LUCILE HAYWORTH Academic A good measure of character is the extent of anyone’s willingness to serve. If all the services that Lucile has ren- dered were converted into character measuring units, the depth of her per- sonality might then be well fathomed. As Assistant Editor of the Virginian and Exchange Editor of the Little Vir- ginian she was incomparably efficient. MARVIN DISHNER General “The things that are made with the hands mirror the creations of the soul.” Marvin could take a piece of board and turn out a thing of enduring delight. We will give the wood some credit, but to Marvin goes the credit of instilling beauty in the commonplace. NANCY RUSH General Nancy has found that it’s much harder to frown than it is to smile, and, being human, she just smiles and smiles, and it seems that it’s just hard to frown when she is present. She also finds it easier to study than loaf so she just studies and studies, and the result is A’s and more A’s.

N ' AGNES PATTERSON General It was our “lucky day” when Agnes came to us in our Junior Year. Always cheerful, willing to share our joys and sorrows, she has done her bit for V. H. S. and the Class of ’29. MARY McCRACKEN Commercial After all — what is the one most satis- fying thing we can achieve for our very own, in High School? Even the most radical or one-sided among us must admit that it is — scholarship. Mary’s career has exemplified this to us ever since she entered school. COLLMAN PENDLETON General Even without Collman’s “three-cor- nered smile” — confidentially “three angels gave him at once a kiss” — his engaging personality and undeniable ability would have made him a dangerous rival. His achievements on the gridiron, the stage, and in the favor of the fair sex are high lights in our class memories, and as Joke Editor of both Virginian and Little Virginian, his fame shall endure. 36 4 ?

Senior Class History That Freshman Class of ’26! We were over one hundred strong; am- bitious and intelligent(P). With Mrs. Boatright to guide us, and a set of well-chosen officers, we surely got there! Most of us made the first corner of our four year square with great success, and were the Sophomore Class of ’27. By saying a four year square, I don’t mean that as we turn those corners we get right back to the place we started from. Hardly! This was a new kind of a square, and in the end took us to great heights. By our Junior Year — ’28, we had begun to feel our real importance. Our boys were distinguishing themselves on the gridiron and basket-ball floor. Indeed the girls’ team would have been sorely in need of re-inforcement if someone had suddenly removed the Juniors from it. We are not a little proud of our effort in playing hosts and hostesses to the Senior Class. And why shouldn’t we be? And on we go — ’till ’29. Then we were Seniors — dignified and fine. The last lap of our journey! It is sad to think of it. And no joke, we will be missed! Our valiant warriors, Captain Crockett, Miller, Harris, Bingham, Tranum, and all the rest did their part for the glory of V. H. S. Our class was represented on the court by a fair majority of the team. Captain Coffey and her team-mates, Jones, Holmes, Kelly, Hood, Rush, Shipley, and Eversole we are justly proud to call our classmates. Our high school career has been marked by many trials and contributions. We have had our “ family quarrels ” but in each have found that “all’s well that ends well. ” Above all — we’ve had our good times. We were not a perfect class in many ways, but the class as a whole is “just the best ever’’ — and I can hear the ghost of Virginia High booming down through the ages — “Class of ’29, we’re proud of you.” — Nancye Kilgore 39 1 i 1 i ' 1 i 1 1 ! 1 ' 1 1 1 The Virginian iw iiw iiw svwiiwvgfe’ i Senior Prophecy This was my first trip to a fortune-teller and I’ll admit that it looked like throwing away eight perfectly good “bits.” However, I was anxious to see how fortune had favored the friends of my youth, the Class of ’29. As I strolled down the street this morning, I was thinking of my old friends whom I had not seen for ten years, and, seeing Madam X’s sign, I eagerly pre- sented myself for a seance. As soon as I was seated, Madam X waved her hand, and lo! — the results: Nannie Kate Barker is a bookkeeper for the Inter-Mountain Telephone Company. St. John Bingham, the confirmed bachelor, has fallen a victim to the wiles of a woman and has been led to the altar of matrimony. The luckless lady is Miss “Peggy” Caldwell.

Stuart Carter is president of the Dominion National Bank and has for his Cashier none other than Marvin Dishner. Marvin isn’t such a “hot” cashier but Stuart needs somebody with whom to argue politics. “Bob” Case is a member of the firm of Case and Stone, Architects. Carl Stone, his partner, has taken unto himself as a bride none less than our shy little Violette. Dolly Christian is a teller of the Bank of Bristol.

Irene Hagan owes her slender figure to Lena Salyer’s method of reducing. Lucille Hayworth is now singing for Victor. She is accompanied at the piano by Miss Evelyn Good. 40 1 i ' 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 ' 1 1 ' ' 1 1 ' 1 ' ' 1 1 The Virginian iw iiwV iiwygi iiw giSVJi k % z k. 9 | § I 9 4 9 I 9 l. 9 4 9 4 9 l % l 9 i 4 9 | 9 Homer Harris, having inherited a rich relative’s fortune, is now on a cruise around the world with his devoted wife, formerly Isabelle Gimmell.

To our esteemed Principal, Mrs. Parrish, we bequeath the right to call a meeting of all Seniors who are failing on one or more subjects and treat them as the former Seniors have been treated. To Miss Aaron, our Librarian, we leave our deepest gratitude and appre- ciation. In addition to this we trust that the coming Seniors may respond as well as we have with “fines” for the Library. To the Faculty, we do hereby bequeath an expression of thanks for the pa- tience and interest they have manifested throughout our days at Virginia High. To Miss Burrow, we leave our sincerest hope that she may find some of the Senior boys of ’30 as interesting as those of ’29. The athletes of the Senior Class leave their best wishes and hardest workouts to the future city champions. We now wish to make a few personal bequests, assuring the recipients that these gifts are presented with the kindliest feelings, since we realize the need of each: Lena Salyer leaves Lyle Flannagan one of her dresses out of which she can make her summer wardrobe. Lewis Brooks wills his superfluous “It” to Sylvan Hobbs. Homer Harris bequeaths his executive ability to Gordon Sheen. Collman Pendleton leaves his wit to P. T. Preston. Peggy Caldwell donates her surplus hair to Mr. King. Isabelle Gemmell leaves her sincerest hope that the Bristol Transportation Company will furnish a bus to ride the athletes of Virginia High School to practice in future years. Violette Wisler bequeaths her ability to keep her man to Iris Martin. The Senior Girls contribute their discarded lipstick, left-over rouge, surplus bobby pins to the girls of the Junior Class, hoping that it will improve their appearance. The Quartet leaves their melodious voices to: Bush, Wisler, McClellan arid Buckles. “Doc” Miller bequeaths his ability to get by to Jack Warren. Carl Stone leaves his ability to make B-|- on everything to Robin Whitton and hopes that he will use the ability to its former advantage. Last but not least, we the Senior Class, bequeath the Juniors the right to sit in the front seats on the right hand side of the auditorium for all assemblies and also the privilege of coming upstairs before the first bell rings in the morn- ings, and all other privileges and rights which we have felt to be the sole prop- erty of this august body of Seniors. We hereby appoint Mr. Clay Easterly as Executor of this Will and request that it be carried out according to our wishes. We, the undersigned, do respectively submit this, our last will and testa- ment, this 7th Day of June, 1929. Witnesses Signed Homer Harris, Pres. John King, Miss Ella Burrow, Sponsor Legator Sr. Class 43 k ? ! (J. f I 4 ? 4 ' ef k h iwVSi iifc iiw iiw fevwi The Virginian ifcV iiwV r iifc SVJiiwV SVwi Senior Class Poem “Honor Lies at Labor’s Gate ” — after Poe Once upon an evening dreary I was wrestling, weak and weary, With life’s eternal problems, Old, but ones I had not seen before. Problems that for ages had existed, Now I cynically insisted And all youthful mental powers enlisted As I never had of yore. But the problems, all unraveled, Lay there calmly, as before, Only Life — and nothing more. Quite distinctly I remember, It was the 15th of September, And I was a humble member Of the Junior Class no more. Eagerly I had wished the morrow, When I hoped that I might borrow All my work from a class-mate Who had lent me his assistance When in swampy paths before. “Yea,” I whispered, “Just once more!” As I sat some rule repeating, All my brain in madness beating, While my heart and throat were meeting And my wan eyes scanned the floor; While I wearily sat napping, Suddenly I felt a tapping And I knew Miss Aaron was rapping Not so gently on my head. “Oh!” I cried, “Don’t, Miss Aaron, I was sick last night, a fact that I deplore.” “Bosh!” she said, “I hate your story — evermore.” As I look back o’er that day, I asked myself, “Does it pay?” Then the answer came on invitation. In its working there is compensation; I will quote it to you just for demonstration, “Honor Lies at Labor’s Gate.” This motto’s kind assistance Has helped me in every instance. Let me quote it as before, “Honor Lies at Labor’s Gate,” Always has and always will — forever more. — Earl Jackson. 44 1 i i i 1 i ' i i i i i i i i 1 1 1 1 i i f ’ i ' 1 1 i i 1 1 wV25!ciVw 1 1 wV2)! svw i i 1 1 wVi5!svv 1 1 1 1 1 1 wvSfciVw i i w 5isvv 1 1 w 3? svwi i wvs!cs v 1 1 wv 3i(S v 1 1 wv i5isvw 1 1 wv i3fSvw 1 1 i iwVSfev iiwvSfeVwiiw Sfev nw SfeVwi The Virginian i wSieVw 1 1 1 1 wv i !eVw 1 1 wv75?ev i Juniors 45 i 1 1 wv ?!ciVw 1 1 1 1 wVi5!ciVv 1 1 1 1 1 1 wvsicsvj 1 1 i i vV23?csv i i w-v i5fe% i ( wV25?Svj 1 1 ifc wiifc iiwV iiwvSfeVwi The Virginian i s-Vi3f ev 1 1 wvSiev 1 1 wV23?GVw 1 1 wvSicsv w i h Junior Class Officers Gordon Sheen Beattie Feathers Francis Cash President Vice-President Secretary-Treasurer Colors Lavinder and Old Rose Flower — Violet Motto — Facta, non Verba V S «s ?

ART EXHIBIT The first week in November an Art Exhibit was held in the High School Auditorium. Copies of masterpieces from the Colonial Art Company were on display. The proceeds bought for the school, Whistler’s “Mother” and Martin’s “Harp of The Winds.” Three pictures were also purchased for Lee School and two pictures for Jefferson School. ROMAN BANQUET On Wednesday evening, November 21, 1928, the Lunch room was the scene of a brilliant Roman banquet which was attended by members of the Vergil Class. Draped couches were used in true Roman fashion before the long banquet table. The lighting effects and Roman dress of those present added much to the picture. A delicious four-course banquet was served by members of the Caesar Class, dressed as slaves. The banquet, under the supervision of Miss Hanson and Miss Aaron, was a decided success. “LISTEN DEARIE” “Listen Dearie,” a captivating musical comedy, was presented on the evening of March 15, 1929, in the High School Auditorium, under the direction of Mr. Hez Thaylor. The proceeds from the entertainment were used for the betterment of the library.

The Lunch Room was decorated with vari-colored balloons and flowers. The place cards and favors were attractive and appropriate. Beattie Feathers was elected by the squad as Captain for the 1929 team. Beattie is an athlete of whom we all are proud and we feel sure that the season of 1929 will be a most successful one. Coach “Frosty” Holt gave a short talk, praising the team, and expressing the determina- tion to conquer Tennessee High next year. School songs were sung at intervals throughout the evening, and with Miss Burrow acting as toastmistress toasts were given between the delicious courses, to the following: The Mothers Collman Pendleton The Team Isabelle Gemmell The Captain Homer Harris Spirit of Virginia High Lewis Brooks The Coach Claude Crockett Mrs. Parrish Nancye KILGORE “NITE OF FUN” The Annual “Nite of Fun” featuring the usual entertainments was given by the P. T. A. on the evening of April 20, 1929. The Concert and Fashion show held in the auditorium were the main attractions of the evening. A basket-ball game held in the gym between the first and third period Physical Education classes offered excellent entertainment to those preferring something in the way of athletics. Attractive booths were arranged throughout the lower hall from which candy, ice cream and hot dogs could be bought. ■ 3 JUNIOR-SENIOR BANQUET One of the most enjoyable social events of the year took place on the evening of May 3, 1929, when the Juniors entertained the Seniors with a delightful and well planned banquet. The lunch room was decorated profusely with flowers and balloons, with the colors of both classes used effectively as a color scheme. Toasts, short talks, and songs given between courses added to the enjoyment of the evening. ■ 3 3 “TED DROPS IN” “Ted Drops In,” a three-act comedy-drama was presented by the Junior Class on the evening of April 16, 1929.

So anyone holding the name of “Clumsey” may be proud of it. “Clumsey” is a quarter-back with ex- ceedingly good ability to steer a team to victory. We trust “Clumsey” will be with us next year. BLAIR GIBSON Tackle Blair was a “bang-up” good player this season. He has the pep and ability to play the kind of a game conditions call for. Blair, though being razzed a good deal, showed he was the kind that could fight and play as well as the others. Blair will be back next year and will help add the victories on one side for another season. HOMER HARRIS End “Swede,” our fast-moving, dashing, little end. Look at him in action, and you will say that size does not make the player. “Swede” is one of the best ends Virginia High has ever had, and we are proud to say that he will be with us next year. ST. J OHN BINGHAM Half-Back Playing his second and last year on the team “Bingham” stepped out and gave us a fine exhibition of how a ball should be carried, to cross the line. “Bingham” was as good a defensive man as he was a “ball-toter” and he proved this by his excellent ability to smash plays. We are sorry to have “Bingham” leave us, and will remember his fine play- ing as a “scrapper.” Football Individuals 74 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 ! 1 1 1 1 1 I ' I 1 1 1 ' 1 1 ' 1 • i i i i i i i i i i ' 1 1 i i i i i j ' 1 « ■ ' i 1 1 wVKGVv 1 1 1 1 wV2)feV iiv teVvi i 1 1 w 5feYw 1 1 vV IGVw 1 1 wfSfeyw 1 1 w$7)feVv 1 1 wv7)!(i w i 1 1 1 WS ' w 1 1 v SiSVii 1 wfSfeVw 1 1 wVo! 5V i 1 iwvS?5Vwiiw« 5fev iiw Sfev iiw 5fev-?i The Virginian iv iifcV iiw (?vviiw )vi CHARLES SASHER Guard “Sonny,” making his first letter this year, proved to be an unusually good linesman. He was a fast-charging and shifty guard. “Sonny” well deserved his honor as a letter man and has proved that he is one whom we can depend on next year to do his part in making cham- pions out of our team. PAUL WRIGHT Quarter-Back “Tink,” a good runner and passer, has shown himself a heady player and one who could handle the team exceedingly well. Never excited, always cool with the next and best play in mind. “Tink” is a good player any way you take him and we are sorry this is his last year at Va. Hi. Football Individuals 1 i 1 1 1 i i 1 1 1 1 1 ' 1 CARL TRANUM Guard “Happy” was one of the pluckiest, hardest fighting and most untiring players on the squad this year. He was hard to beat any way or any place he played. A natural “hard fighting” and charging ball player, he fought as long as the game lasted, from one whistle to the other and was as good at the last of the game as he was at the beginning. That vacant spot next to center will be lucky to hold as good a man as “Happy” was last season. NEWTON BUSH Half “Bush,” playing his first year on the team, gives promise of developing into a sensational player, as he is fast, hard- charging and a difficult man to stop. Next year should see him running “wild” and side-stepping in a scintillating fashion. JAMES CROCKETT Captain “Jim” — a natural leader was chosen to pilot the team and he responded by showing great ability as a leader and giving all he had. This was an honor which “Jim” deserved. In every game his brilliant playing was outstanding to the spectators. When “Jim” leaves the team this year he will leave the justly deserved reputation as one of Va. High’s best tackles. 1 i 1 i 1 1 i 1 1 1 g s 1 i 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 i 1 1 1 1 1 1 wv i5?ciVv 1 1 wV25!(SVw i i wv s v i , wv 5!sv 1 1 wVi5ic?vw 1 1 wv i5f(SVw 1 1 w i3 csvw 1 1 i Virginian i wvSiSv i . wvSiSv i i wvS!S% i i wv !gVw i FRANCIS HINES Guard Injuries several years ago kept “ Mon- key” away from us until his senior year. He came out and fought stiff opposition to gain a place on the team. Would that everyone had the true fighting Vir- ginia spirit that “Monkey” has! WALDO MILES Center “Wade” — a g-im, determined plugger, adept at passing the ball on the offense and impregnable on the defense, was in a big way responsible for our victories during the last season. Good “snapper-backs” are few and far between, so that is why “Wade” will be sorely missed next year. If our next center is as good as “Wade,” we need not worry about the center of the line next season. ? 4 ? £ COLLMAN PENDLETON Guard “Pimp,” playing his first year on the team, was always a terror on the defense and dealt destruction to anything coming his way. Although “Pimp” was inex- perienced as were others on the squad, he played the game like an “old-timer” with style of a great linesman. FRANCIS CASH End “Red” — a beastly player, who has the vigor to get through. “Red” made his first letter this year but will make another one next year. We are certain he will hold up to the Cash name as a ball player — a reputation started by his brother. Football Individuals 76 s Cj?. The Virginian iwV ii l iiw i viiw ev i A3 % | § I f S ' EARLE JACKSON End “ Tom’s ” experience has counted heavily in our games during the last two years, in which he played as a “regular.” A speedy and resourceful end with the ability to break up plays and hit a man like a “freight train.” His absence next year will be keenly felt. DONALD MORRIS Tackle Donald showed everyone he could play ball, and deservedly won his letter last season. He proved that he was made of the stuff it takes to make a football player. Donald, being big and shifty, makes another important player for next year. We are all sure that he will be able to hold down his spot, and keep that part of the line in first class condition. BEATTIE FEATHERS Full- Back Capt. Elect Beattie, without a shadow of doubt, is the greatest full-back Virginia High has ever had pride to call hers, and we have always had “good ones.” His ability to kick, pass, carry the ball or back the line is far above the average. His playing was sensational last season, so watch him next season. Next year, Beattie, as captain, will carry the team through to victory, so keep on the lookout for “Flying Feathers.” HOWARD MILLER Half-Back “Doc,” a great lineman and flashing back, was one of our most valuable players, as any member who played beside him will tell you, and when he leaves us this year, one must say — “ Thus passes one of Virginia High’s greatest players.” ■ lifer- -mmmm Football Individuals 77 1 t ' i 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 i v 1 1 vtfSfeVJ 1 1 w 1 1 wV ' .DIG’v w 1 1 I i 1 1 vf’SfeV 1 1 w 7)!

There was much excitement over the annual game. This is the school’s hardest and most important game, no matter how weak or strong the opponents may be. The whistle blew and the battle began. Both teams were handicapped because of a muddy field, but they showed their stuff by hard fighting. The first quarter was mostly a kicking contest between Beattie Feathers and Harry Weiler. There were few yards gained by carrying the ball. The quarter ended with the battle in the middle of the field with a scoreless tie. The second quarter was the start of a vigorous fight. Both teams began efforts to put the ball across their line; but there was little gained through the lines as this was considered a stone wall. It was in this part of the game that we were defeated. Tennessee, after completing several short passes, had the ball a yard or so from their goal, and Weiler made a hard charge, carrying 78 The Virginian 1 1 ! i 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 ' 1 1 1 f i i i 1 1 1 1 1 1 I y .1?

It was in this quarter we played our best. Though we failed to score we made more yardage than Tennessee and things looked favorable a few times. The first half of the game ended with the score 6 to 0 in Tennessee’s favor. The third quarter was a repetition of the other two; hard fought, but fate was against us. There were good gains made but the whistle blew, ending the third quarter with Tennessee still holding the lead with their only counter. The last quarter was started with much enthusiasm and excitement on both sides. Until the last few minutes the ball was played close to our goal. It was continuous passing and many substitutions failed to secure a touchdown for us. Though Tennessee came out on the big end, we had a victorious defeat. This is Tennessee’s third time with the title, the last two years in succession. We congratulate them for their success, for they played clean and won by hard fighting. We are not discouraged because next season we meet again. And I have a “sneaking suspicion” that we are — aw, just wait and help us cheer after the game. — “ Monkey ” Hines. k k ? i i vVSi Vw 1 1 1 1 wVSfeVw i wVSfSV i 4 i 5VwiivVSfcSVviiwVSfeV iiwV23!cSVviivV5?5Vwif 1 wv 3! iVw 1 1 wV25!c5Vv i i wvt3!(5Vw i i wir GVw i The Virginian r % ? ? 4 ? 4 ?

J § 4 4 § Basket-ball Summary Basket-ball practice starting early this year, the team had a good chance for a victorious season. Our first game with Gate City showed we had excellent material, and victory over them gave us a good start for the year. With Bingham, jumping center, we we re always sure of the tip-off. Then there were “Swede,” “Doc,” Beattie and Bush to round out an almost per- fectly balanced team. Though overcome by Rocky Mount for the state championship, we were in line with the rest until the finish. It wasn’t hard to take this defeat from them, as they defeated Roanoke and now hold Class A and Class B champion- ship of the State of Virginia. Considering the season as a whole, we had one of the best teams Virginia Hi has ever had. We had many stiff opponents and some difficult circum- stances to deal with. There being only five really experienced men on the squad, I think the team was a leading one. To prove this we have our record. We played eigh- teen games and lost only four of them. The team showed their best efforts in the Virginia-Tennessee games, both of these games being close and exciting. There are usually three games played, but never with a team like ours last season. We won the first game with the close score of 17 to 16. This was caused by Bingham’s sensational shot in the last minute of the game giving us the victory. The second game the boys assuredly did “shine.” We played in the lead the whole game, (just opposite the first game) and at the end came out with the ribbons — the entire team stars of the first magnitude. The final score was 27 to 25 in our favor, thus giving us the championship title. All in all, it was an almost wholly successful season. Of course every team has its defeats, but next year I think we will be an exception to this rule. Though some of the players will get through this year, they will be out cheering and backing 01’ Virginia High. — “ Monkey ” Hines. i 4 1 k ? ? 1. ? 4 ?

Many handicaps appeared at the first of the season, and we got away to a bad start. Inability of Flannagan, Hayworth, and Hines to return to the team at the beginning of the season caused much uneasiness in camp. Opening the season with a defeat always seems a bad omen, and difficulties and irregularities in the schedule are depressing to coach and players alike. All of these disadvantages our girls had to face, and yet the old fighting spirit of Virginia High never for a moment deserted us, and at the close of the season our victories outnumbered our defeats. Even losing the championship to Tennessee High did not keep us from realizing, with the old Roman philoso- pher the truth that “Post nubes, Sol.” SUMMARY Dec. 18 .. .Virginia High 34 vs Shoemaker High 9 Jan. 16 ...
