You have served us well, 0 school so dear In the turbulent years of youth; Though we are leaving now your fun and cheer, May we live by your standards of truth. Let’s live not in visions, fancies, or dreams Of achievements heroic at ' length — Let ’ 8 act! Let’s act! till life in greatness seems Worthy of grandeur and strength. For he who wishes to attain success To reach, at last, the distant goal Must fight the harder if he be oppressed Must fight, in truth, with heart and soul. How bear in mind this noble, solemn thought: That Honor lies at Labor’s gate : For no one yet has gained the goal but fought To win life’s crown from the hands of Fate. 8. C.

Pacts are meaningless unless their chronicling affords profit or pleasure to a definite group of interested people - A few of these facts the humble historian of the noteworthy class of 33 now offers with the hope that thei] r future reading will be both profitable and pleasurable to j all members of the class and their friends. As freshmen we had an exceedingly good record. Our freshmen athletes won the class championship in basketball. J thus showing promise of becoming stars in future years. 1 We had during our sophomore year several outstanding events worthy of mention. The most valuable so-called Shakespearean dramas, The Merchant of Venice and Romeo j and Juliet , by the Anon players. These plays were given in the Virginia High School audit or ium, and added much to our cultural background. Another event was the organization of the public speaking club of Virginia High, with several sophomores as charter members . , Our Junior year was a real success. We won the city championship in football for the first time In several year, and we remember that our team won the state championship, defeating class A as well as those of class B. Although our Junior year is one to be long remembered our Senior year sheds an even more radiant glow across the path of our progress. Our football team with Pug Wilson, a brilliant star of many seasons and one of our very own, as captain, proved to be one of the greatest teams in the history of Virginia High. Many years will fade into dim memory before our victories over Ervin, Kingsport, and Tennessee High are forgotten. Modesty forbids my recording the unique qualities of originality, brilliance and charm so abundantly possessed by the class of 3 3 , but a glance at the accompanying portraits will be sufficient evidence of the fact that thes attributes are not mythical. May this brief summary prove to be mearely an augury of the glorious future destines for each member of the class of 19331 PROPHECY It will soon be over. We all nay never see each other again unless we should be lucky enough to stumble across one another in later years. So after a careful thought into the future I am giving my survey of the vocations and avocations of my classmates (If we should have a vocation. You know, times are bad everywhere’.). Our president, Yeuell Harris, will be a most fortu- nate and admirable statesman. He’s intelligent, good- looking, and crooked, so why, may I ask, shouldn’t he be a politician? — Russel Johnson, our vice-president, in my honest prediction, will be the most flourishing ad in years for Palmolive soap! — Julia Pepper, (my 3. D.) our secretary, will marry a grand-looking and wealthy man. She deserves one. She’s sweet, simple, and dumb enough! How comes a feature! Louis King, in my prediction, will become a prosperous owner of a refined Recreation Parlor ! Walton Musick (sometimes referred to as Roy PifielT) will become a senoational musician. He will grind a street organ! — Jane Bowers and Mavis Hannum (otherwise known as the Goldust Twins”). Mavis will marry. Jane will visit her all the time! Poor Bob! — Catherine (what-a- woman) Bowman will become an internationally known fiction writer. Too bad you three Gigolos! — Rachel (the first Miss Bristol ) Carper should go to Hew York to become a model. She’s pretty and has a lop-sided walk! And believe you me, that ' s what it takes. — Richard (slipping) Horner will become a second to none actor of the motion picture world. His eyes are like Valentino’s; his mouth like Slim” Summerville’s; his nose like Jimmy Durante ' s; and his feet like Greta Garbo’s; so why not an actor? - — S. C. (studious) Beard will be pastor, fire-chief, mayor, city council, and general store-keeper of Wallace’s Switch! — Orville (pugil- ist) Coffey will be the receiving end of all punches until he too turns crooked! — He will then take up hospital work! Wouldn’t it be time? — Samuel (what-a-girl) Schroetter, Hester (oh, my!) Cothron, and J. J. (singer) White will be the leading trio of the country. They’ll take the Boswell sisters ' place! — 8am (Big 8hot) Paust will become the in- ventor and owner of a new automobile horn. So now Big Shot can toot his horn as much as he desires! — Robert (Bull) Lawson, the pride (and predjuice) of our school, will be a blacksmith. He’s big, ugly, and black (most of the times) enough! — Dorothy (sweet) Turner, a real sweet, simple , and fine girl, has a brilliant future as a pianist. Dorothy is my favorite pet of the class and I don ' t mean petting . — Mattie (squirmy) Gose, as you will probably guess, should be a school teacher. I don’t think so. She has pep, and good-looks. I hope she makes the stage her career! — Catherine (quiet) Turner will, in all sense of the word become a school teacher. — Ida Belle (all right) Bridgeman will be the future secretary to Miss Miller! Ain ' t she the type though? — Eugene (blow) Rush will be the most original conversationilist in the past decade. Z! He gets his originality from Captain Billy! — Carl (Sarah) Pettigrew will settle down (if it ' s possible at his height) and marry. He will build a new type of house: a seven foot door facing! — Irene (perfect) Irwin and Dolores (sweeter) Boueh will both be businesswomen. I think we’ll all deal with th em. They are studious (and dumb!). — Charles (shortj Griffin and Sam (tall) Good will be partners in crime. Char] will carry Sam’s Xylophone and Sam will just plain carry Charlie! — Dale (just existing) Carter will be a banker. Wl shouldn’t he, aren’t all bankers just existing? — Thomas (bride) Bradely will inherit (and disinherit) his father’s drug store. All the boys will hang around his place, it wil] be such a big treat! — Mary (beautiful) Stover, in my predic tion, (this prediction business is getting on my nerves) wil] be a nurse. Mary’s quiet, sympathetic, and nice. I wish hei a brilliant future. — Annette (Musick) Johnson will settle dovm for better, or worse, with Walton. Which do you think j will he? — How comes a row of improvements. Gladys (noisy) Bowers, Blanche (business-like) Edens, Maxine (nice) Ward, ar Vivian (sport) McClellan will all take the places of our old favorites Misses Shoun, Crumley, Fields, and Goble’s poaitior as school teachers! Thank goodness! — Ruth (fine) Crumley will be a private secretary to someone like, shall we say Mr, Bowers? Ruth’s eyes are bootiful enough, don’t you think? — Harold (muscular) Killinger is a jack of all trades. I don’1 know which to predict, but he ' ll succeed. He’s talented for art. — Louis (argue) Shelburne will (or ought to be) a lawyp He makes up enough arguments against any subject! — Arthur (Red) Whitlock, and Walter (Easterly) Simpson, will be stone carvers when they leave school. They’re good enough chislers now! — James (experimental) Wygal will be an aviator. He w3 experiment once too often someday and will automatically becc; an aviator! Catch on? — Robert (ambitious) Davenport once made a statement in school that he would be president of the United States. Remember Boh? Don ' t change it now. Go befoi Congress and get all us other classmates a few jobs, will yoi Lloyd (rover) Hall will be the last man we ' ll want to see. He’ll be owner of a graveyard! My pal, please pick out some- thing nice for us all, will you? — Sidney (courteous) Everet will succeed as he has always done. Sidney will get ten cent for two bannanas while the rest of us will get but a dime for three — Hazel (atheletic) Fleenor will be a girl ' s coach at some big university like King! Or, maybe take Miss Field ' s place. We ' re hoping so! — Dorothy (girlish) McQueen and Carmilee (silent) Addington will both he married. They ' ll settle down and repent everafterwardsi — Virginia (studious) Groseclose and Alma (real nice) Kee3ee, will be two more schc teachers. I ' m glad I ' m finishing! — Ireland (grand) Powell and Francis (brilliant) Wagner will be business women. Both are favorites of work. Both will succeed. — Lena Ruth (dar ] ing) Owen will he a beauty specialist. She just has to show her own self to be a success! — David (newcomer) Pierce wil] be a gigolo. He ' s a lady ' s pet. — And believe me you we ali like him. And now, what will I be? Listen, if all these predictions come true I ' ll be (that ' s right, you guessed it) CRAZY!! zi Smoky (treasurer!) Slaughter CLASS WILL We, the graduating class of 1933, being in one of the moods of which we are characteristic, do will and bequeath the following, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and thirty-three.
