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 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. I ? s. ?■ w ? 4 I l 4 ? i ? £

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.
