The plane ’30 had a crew of about eighty boys and girls unused to the tossing of tumbling air currents. The plane was equipped by a large number of capitalists, who waited and watched anxiously for news of the flight. The captain of the plane was John Atchley; chief pilots, Boatright and Crumley. The flying for the first few weeks was very rough and slow. The duties and positions of the crew had to be assigned. Sailing through the air after that was fairly safe until January, when encountering rough air currents and pockets, some of the crew were injured and had to land and wait for another transport. In the sunny month of June, the plane ’30 flew to the landing field with the members of the crew strengthened by their months of experience and with their minds enriched. The airship and its members were now more sure of themselves and had more faith in their ability. They had flown through unknown skies and perilous storms, and they were still flying high with almost all of the original crew. Again in September the plane started upon another flight with Captain Paul Sublett in command and Burrow and Schilling as chief pilots. The owners encouraged by former success remained true to their investments and supported a second and third flight. While a few of the crew found them- selves unable to withstand the rigors of the flight and refused to fly again, many from distant lands joined to take their places. After the third year of the flight, during which many individuals, as well as the remainder of the crew, had performed many brilliant explorations, the plane returned to the landing field for repairs and readjustments. Before starting upon another flight, the fourth and last, Captain Gordon Sheen surrendered his position to Francis Cash, and Hanson and Hillman suc- ceeded Smith and King as chief pilots. The plane went far away, through new skies into strange and distant lands. In these foreign countries the mem- bers of the crew gathered much honor and won many trophies from their explo- rations, and also much material which was to be of untold value to them in the future. In June of the fourth year the crew of the plane reached its final goal — the haven of graduation with hopes and aims realized (to some extent). They departed from each other with many good wishes and cheery farewells to pilot their own plane to success. — Olin Mumpower. 34 cr cr cr cr ocr oip..

All of our left-over time for tardies, etc., we leave to Mr. Goble for him to distribute as he sees fit among the several classes of next year. As Mr. Goble wears rubber heels, we leave him some steel taps and hob nails so the classes of next year can hear him coming and be prepared by the time he arrives. We also leave him a pair of desk rollers, which we hope will increase his superfluous overflow of energy. 5. To Miss Hanson, we leave all of our chewing-gum, some of which hasn’t been chewed more than once. 6. To Mr. King, we leave all the grasshoppers, frogs and butterflies. 7. To Miss Burrow, Donald Morris leaves his football suit. 8. We bequeath to Miss Graybeal two books. They are: “The Newest Slang Words” and a French novel entitled “Mademoiselle et Monsieur.” 9. By chance we found two rich old bachelors whom we bequeath to Miss Oglesby and Miss Smith, hoping they won’t let such an opportunity pass. 10. To Miss Hillman we leave our ability to play basket-ball for her to distribute among the class basket-ball team of ’32. 11. To Dorothea Palmer, Eula Noblitt leaves all her discarded lovers. 12. To Kathleen Darter we leave all our artistic ability. 13. We leave all our solid geometry books to Helen Camden and Nell Payne Baumgardner. 14. Toby Taylor wills an army of King College boys to Karleen Rush, with the exception of Mooney. 15. To Mildred Cline, Frank Shelbourne leaves his ability to blush. 16. To Riley and Julia, we leave a perfect Romeo and Juliet degree. 17. To Aileen Shipley, Pearl Brown and Brownie Eversole leave their “pep.” 18. Donald Morris leaves his quiet manners, bashful movements, and much reserved air to whomever Mr. Goble sees fit to bestow it. 19. Gordon Sheen and Bill Steppe leave their ability as comedians to “Pat” Meaney and “Smoky” Slaughter. 39 r r r r cr c fo r cr (r (r c (r c v foc fsOcr oc oc foc fvDc foc foc oc foc O(r fo (T cr oc focrfsDcrfsD):.

THE VIRGINIAN - cr cr cr cr cr o Tale of the Seniors I left my Couch quite early Bedecked as an Earl or King In shining silver Buckles and Many a regal thing. I felt so Young and happy The morn looked very clean, The dew had left o’er everything A glorious morning Sheen. It was very Necessary That I Steppe a lively gait, The birds in the trees were calling me — I had not Long to wait. I heard a Robin singing, It filled my heart with glee: It had perched upon my window Barr, So very close to me. I heard a Haun and then I looked And saw a Brownie too, As tiny as a Dollie, So free from care, ’tis true. How do you earn your money, tell, And how do you spend your hours? “I have no need for Cash,” she said, “I live on the honey of flowers.” She perched upon an Iris, said: ‘‘Look, while you have a chance, That’s the little Martin That sings for me to dance. ” And as I looked the good little Brownie Hopped upon the ground. She danced with the Feathers in her cap In a little suit of Brown. Now to be very Frank with you, This seems a frivolous theme; Perhaps it is, now as I think — I’m sure it was a dream. — Tiddly Winks. 41 c focr cr r (r cr cr cr c (r cr (r cr (r r (r OG foc r G r c focr (r o r (r cr (r (r o]£.

Whenever we needed a few yards we would give him the ball to plunge the line. Beattie, the tower of strength of the offense and defense, played hard during the season, until illness overtook him about three weeks before the close of the season. This was Beattie’s last year with the team, and Virginia has lost one of the best players and men she has ever had. Aubrey Dettor — Tackle Aubrey didn’t get started until the last of the season, but we look for great work from him next year. Howard Fleenor — Tackle Howard was the man of the line. He was the largest person in the line, and was a great fighter. The team should make many gains through Howard’s tackle next year. Sheen — Tackle Gordon was a great player in the line. He played good football both on the defense and offense. This was Sheen’s last year, and the school will miss him. He was a good example for the boys on the grid-iron. Bush — Half Newton was a good player. He made gains through the line, and was a star on the defense. An injury kept him out of the first few games, but when he started again he started with a bang. He will be greatly missed next year. Fleenor- — Quarter -back Fleenor was a great quarter-back who knew what to do. This was Wiley’s first year at this position, and he proved his worth. He will be with us next year. 75 cr ocr cr oc7 0G foj;c. THE VIRGINIAN - cr cr cr ocr ocr o Wilson — Right Guard “Pug” was little but loud. He could tackle like a master at the art. We are glad he will be with us next year. Snodgrass — Half Due to injuries in the early part of the season, “Lefty” was unable to keep the old punch he had shown. He was a good ball carrier, a terror on the defense, and a good example for boys on the grid-iron. Such players as “Lefty” are rare. This was his first and last year. Greer — End The position of end was well filled by Carmon who proved himself worthy of the letter he is wearing He played well on the field. This was his last year on the team. David Cooper — Quarter-back David was a good ball player. He knew his work, and did it well. He will be a valuable man on the team next year. Meaney — Half “Pat” was a little terror on the field. Starting late in the season he proved himself a player of note this year. Watch him next season. Miles — Half Miles began his service late in the season. He showed up fine and you can watch him go with the ball next year. This was his first year. We have great hopes of him next year. 76 (7 r cr r cr cr r (r r (r r c foc foc foc c O(r c fOG fo r c foc fo r cr cr cr cr cr ocr o . THE VIRGINIAN r r r o r r o Buckles — Left Guard Buckles was a splendid man in the line and a fierce fighter all times when playing. This was Buckles’ first and last year on the team. The school loses a good player when “Burley” leaves. W. S. Jessie — End Jessie was a good player. He should be much help to the team next year. S ASHER — Center Sasher, captain - elect, was a fine roving center. He had the ability to stop the on- sloughts through his part of the line, and was equally as good on the offense. Of course he will be with us next year, and we wish him luck as Captain of the 1930 football team. Edwin Hulse Edwin Hulse, playing his first year of sports, has proved to be a valuable asset on the line, and when there is any assistance needed, they always look toward Hulse. We are glad that Hulse has another year at Virginia High, for we know he will prove to be one of the best Centers we have ever known. Miller — Guard Miller was a fine player in the line. Herb showed the old fight of the Millers. Watch him play next year. Cash — Right End “Red” was indispensable in his position. He could block and tackle with deadly aim. When he went down on a punt he got his man. He was injured in the early part of the season and was unable to return to the Orange and Black during the season. This was “Red’s” last year with the team. 77 cr cr ocr cr cr cr focr ocr cr focr OG fOG OG tr c oc ocr cr G cr cr cr cr cr o r G-focrfoc-foc-fo . THE VIRGINIAN .

Dettor — End Dettor was a good man the defense. He played a good game at all times. This was his first and last year with the team. Preston — Left Tackle Preston was a tower of strength in the line. He could open holes and when on the defense could stop the charge of the opposing line. This was Preston’s last year with the team. Morris — Right Tackle Morris was a great tackle. Since he was a large man he would make the opposing side respect his power. He played a good game all season. We shall miss him next year. Slaughter — Left End Slaughter was a great player. He could block, tackle and catch passes with accuracy. Since this was his first on the team, he will be with us next year. Yewell Harris — Half-back Yewell, who played a good game at half-back, could tackl e and block along with the best. On account of his size he should make many gains through the holes in the line next year. 78 cr cr cr cr cr ojc.

THE VIRGINIAN - cr ocr-focr cr ocr-fo Virginia- Tennessee Game On Saturday, November 30, Virginia High met Tennessee High on Tenneva Field in the annual game between the two schools. The field was in a terrible condition due to ice and snow, the smallest crowd that has witnessed the annual conflict in many years gathered on the bleachers and side lines November 30, 1929. At the kickoff Virginia was downed deep in her territory. During the first quarter it was a see-saw up and down the field between the teams with the ball in Virginia territory the greater part of the time. The team was weakened by the absence of Beattie Feathers, the captain, who was ill, and the other injured men who were out. However, Virginia High put up a brave fight to keep Tennessee from scoring. Early in the second quarter Tennessee led by Captain Smith, scored the first touchdown, soon after Charley Phipps took Bush’s punt and returned it deep into Virginia’s territory. Tennessee soon scored. The try for extra point was good. Coming back in swift fashion Tennessee scored again just before the half ended. The boys were fighting hard but Tennessee had the edge on Virginia this year. The boys came back in the second half, and put up a real fight. They took the ball into Tennessee territory, and had Tennessee baffled all during the third quarter. In the fourth quarter the Orange and Black kept up their brave stand until the game was almost over. Tennessee started a drive the Virginians couldn’t stop, to put over the final touchdown just before the game was over. The final score was Tennessee, 26 — Virginia, 0. This was the third straight defeat for Virginia and the third straight win for Tennessee. Well, the game isn’t over until the final whistle blows, so watch our team against Tennessee next year. —“Lefty” Snodgrass. 80 ,(T r c cr N foc v foc (r fO(r r foc foc r ocr c fOG (r c cr c v fOG c c c ocr o cr (7 cr cr ( o|c.

And as he explained the parts to his class, They all expired from the fumes of gas. Green grow the turf above thee, Worked to death by Senior ways! He died of conviction of conscience, May Saint Peter award him the Praise. Here lies the body of Mary Clare, Who died trying to prove a circle was square; Su ch as this made her weary and tired, So in the attempt the poor girl expired. Fall gently on Boy B., oh, dew! He died in obtaining the Seniors I. Q.

She worked o’er the paper, too hard we confess, Expired as the last issue went to the Press. Deep under here you’ll find the remains Of Nelle Graybeal, who took such pains In counting pages for the Senior list; The task was too great, she does not exist. Here lies the body of poor Mrs. Saul, Virginia High music was the cause of it all. ’Twas such a sad thing, They just wouldn’t sing, And so she expired last fall. Under the monument, high on the hill, Lies Coach Pidney and he lies quite still. Hard luck without reason Beset him one season, And so he rests under the hill. Under the stone to the left as you see, Lies Miss Brewer — ah, so let her be! She coached the Minstrel as they sang and spoke; At last she expired at an uncensored joke! Miss Mort lies here, once full of mirth, Now she rests in the lap of earth. Those standard tests Were just such pests They sapped her life and joy and mirth.
