EMIL PEURIFOY Walterboro, S. C. “Sonny Boy” U. D. €. Essay Prize (1); Secretary of Class (1) ; Vice President of Class (2) ; Winning Orator in Edisto League (3) ; President of History Club; Foot Ball (1) (2) (3) (4). When we look for the most bril- liant and most promising members of our class, we always find “Sonny Boy” at the head of the list. His especial interests have lain along the lines of history, not only past but present. His outstanding char- acteristics are his dignity, friend- liness. and ambition. These were recognized by Congressman McMil- lan wThen he gave Emil an appoint- ment to West Point. Both in his studies and on the athleitc field has he proved his worth. We prophesy great things for you, ‘-Sonny”, at West Point and in the world, where we expect you to take your place as a great man. JAMES HOWELL RAINEY Walterboro, S. C. “Showers” Class treasurer (2) ; Base Ball (3) ; Foot Ball (3) (4) ; Business Manager of Wild Cat; Class Poet. He is the fellow with a smile that never fails to glisten at the sight of a maiden, be she ever so homely or be she ever so comely, with a heart that never fails to sympa- thize with a friend in distress, with a depth of mind that grasps' and holds. Old boy, you can count the entire school your friend just as you are a friend to the entire school. No greater tribute could ever be attributed to you—or to any one else—than that you are the best friend one could have. “Show- ers”, whatever your field of en- deavor, we know that success shall lavish her richest reward on you.

BESSIE STJLA LEE REYNOLDS Jacksonboko, S. C. - », “Sue” President of Class ( racksonboro) (1) : History Club. The year of J25 marked the be- ginning of Jacksonboro’s loss and Walterboro’s gain, for Bessie and many others started attending Wal- terboro High. In these two years “Sue” has won many friends by her sincerity, her jolly and snnny nature, and not the least by her golden locks and pretty face. In fact she has vamped a certain “young blond” from high school. We feel sure that Columbia College will be as proud of her as we have been and that her success in life will make Walterboro glad that we were able to have her for two years. MARY MYRTLE REYNOLDS Jacksonboko, S. C. “Myrtle” In vainly attempting to condense the characteristics which “Myrtle” possesses, we might describe her thus—not too serious, not too gay, but smiling and jesting day after day, as if troubles never come. Un- like the foolish grasshopper she does not while her time in idle pleasure. The serious side of her nature insmres sympathy to anyone, seeking help. Our best wishes for the greatest success follow “Myr- tle” wherever she may go. K

MARY ELIZABETH RIVERS Walterboro, S. C. “Good Looking” “Jack” Glee Club ; History Club. Home Econo- mics Club; U. D. C. Essay Prize (1). If you should hear, floating down the hall at Columbia College next year, “Oooh, I just met the eutest boy!”, you would know that it was Mary Rivers speaking and that an- other poor boy had fallen. But she is not of the light-headed sort, though she is light hearted and wit- ty and enjoys a good time. She has dignity and poise. In other words, she is a good sport and knows when to be grave and when to be gay. And, besides all this, she was voted the most beautiful in the whole school. Mary’s face is her fortune— So I’ve been told; It’s worth more to her Than jewels and gold. NORMA SAULS Walterboro, S. C. “Sis” “Norme” Wildcat staff; History Club. We all know “Sis” by her host of friends, who are always flocking around her. She is a friend, too, one of those “all wool and yard wide” kind. Can she dance? Well, who says she can’t? And you can always tell when “Norme” is around by her good natured laugh. She sure can give you a good time and make you feel at home. We hate for the time to come when we must part. .
