30 THE TATLER 1927 JOHN BAILEY “Jack” Quantico, Md. “Where did he get those eyes?” everyone asks as soon as they see John’s big, brown eyes. It is a fitting question for who ever saw such eyes before? John is quite a ladies’ man but due to his modest character and unassuming manner he never realizes what a hit he’s made with the fairer sex. Social Civics Club RUTH BANKS “Rufus” Salisbury, Md. Now, as in Bibical times, Ruth is a name meaning quietness and sweetness. Ruth’s name just suits her for she is such a demure little maid. In classes, she is bright and studious but outside of school, her brown eyes sparkle and dance with mischievous twinkles. May your business life be happy, “Rufus.” English Club EDWARD BETTS “Ed” Salisbury, Md. In every class there must be a sunny boy. “Ed” is the one of ’27 class be¬ cause he is never seen without a smile on his face. Edward intends to go to U. of M. next year. We know he will have a very good record and we hope he will always remain as optimistic as he is now. English Club Dramatic Club Athletic Cltib

THE TATLE R—1 9 2 7 29 CARROLL LONG “Chick Fruitland, Maryland All Hail the President of the Class of ’27. Carroll is briming full of mischief and always in for some fun. He can smile at trouble and dive into a pile of work without a word of con plaint. Probably Carroll is the most active member of our class. He has the responsibility of guiding us through our last year of school. Besides this, he is prominent in the field of athletics. Carroll is also a member of our High School Orchestra. Carroll has wonderful executive ability. He knows how to put things across. We, the class of ’27, hope he will be as successful in the outside world as he has been at W. H. S.

THE TATLE R—1 9 2 7 31 THELMA BOUNDS “T. B.” Salisbury, Md. Thelma is another of Salisbury’s brown-eyed misses. Her gentle manner wins for her many faithful friends and these friends are the kind that last through thick and thin. “T. B.” is very quiet in school but we are sure those brown eyes miss nothing that goes on. English Club FORD BREWINGTON Liz” Salisbury, Md. Ford is the live wire of the 1927 class. He is always making someone laugh or frown (in case of a teacher) and not a day passes but that he contributes some¬ thing towards the amusement of the class. Vitality is the mainspring of yo uth, Ford, so may you always be as brimming full of fun and ambition as you are now. Social Civics Club Baseball Team NETTIE BRYAN Net” Parsonsburg, Md. “If she’s smiling all the while” thats Nettie Bryan. Always cheerful, never despondent, “Net” makes everyone hap¬ py and contented. But Nettie is not only a regular sunbeam, she also is as practical as she can be. We are sure you won’t have far to look, “Net,” when you select your lifelong partner. English Club
