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

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. Virginian 27

•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
