IRIS JEAN WHITE April 5, 1924 Jean was bom at Kingston, Maryland. She entered Wi-Hi from Washington High School at Princess Anne at the beginning of her senior year. In her quiet manner, Jean acquainted herself with the ways of our school in a very short time. Upon graduating, she intends to become a nurse. Her merry laugh should bring her success. EARL MAXWELL WHITE, JR. December 5, 1925 “Hotsie’s” from our big town of Salisbury. He mainly participated in track events and sports af¬ fairs at W. H. S. Then, too, he was often seen as a monitor directing traffic along our conjested halls. There is no doubt about it; he is remembered by his ability to blush. Earl plans to join the Army Air -Corps. JAMES TAYLOR WILLIAMS April 11, 1926 “Jimmy” came to Wicomico High from Delmar, Md. His most outstanding activities have been displayed in basketball and as secretary of F. F. A. If he does not join the Marines, Jimmy is going to be an agri¬ culture teacher. Here’s to the “Future Farmers”! JEAN LARUE WILLIAMS July 5, 1925 Jean is also from Salisbury. She is very fond of all sports, having participated in fieldball, basketball, volleyball, track and field day events. Jean was presi¬ dent of her home room during her freshman year, and home room newspaper reporter in the senior year. She has also served on the monitor system. Jean has her career all picked out—she plans to be a stenogra¬ pher ( ?). We will all remember her for her friendly disposition. MARY JANE WILLIAMS January 15, 1926 Being a native of Salisbury, Mary Jane naturally takes a great interest in sports—fieldball. basketball, volleyball and track events. She is also much in de¬ mand when field day is near. Aside from sports, Mary Jane has also been a Red Cross representative. Her ambition, she says, is to be a stenographer, but we know better! 33

BETTY CATHERINE WALLER March 3, 1926 Betty hails from Salisbury. Glee Club, Operetta, Red Cross representative and a member of the Wi- Hi News Staff were some of her activities. Her thor¬ oughness and willingness should prove very helpful in her future career, surgical nursing. WILLIAM MARK WATSON May 25, 1925 Mark is another playboy from the great and flourish¬ ing city of Fruitland. Mark’s chief activity during his little visit at high school has been his race to get the inconspicious seat in the classroom. That humor and wit, followed by a merry laugh, will never be for¬ gotten by his associates. Now, Mark is undecided as to his future, but like many of us, “Uncle Sam” prob¬ ably will decide for him. JOYCE IMOGENE WEBSTER July 25, 1925 Joyce was born in Salisbury. Her school spirit has been shown in her many activities. President of her home room, program chairman, member of the Glee Club, operetta, Junior Class Play, intramural sports, and Wi-Hi News staff were a few of Joyce’s activi¬ ties. To all her school mates she will be remembered by her jolly disposition. Joyce pl ans to become a nurse. WILLIAM ARTHUR WASHBURN, JR. December 10, 1926 “Bill” hails from around Siloam. He was home room reporter his first year, air raid warden for two years, ana a monitor one year. “Bill” plans to be a bookkeeper or a farmer. CHARLOTTE ELLEN WHITE July 11, 1926 “Sharkie” hails from Nanticoke, Maryland. Al¬ though she figures most prominently in school life as the editor of the Wi-Hi News, she has participated in intramural sports during each of her four years of high school. She was also vice-president of her home room for two years. After graduation, Charlotte plans to attend college. We will never forget her splendid poise while making speeches in the auditorium. 32

RALPH MCFADDEN WILLIAMS June 22, 1926 Like many of us, “Mac” is a native of Salisbury, but unlike most of us, he is a musician. “Mac” has been a member of the Glee Club, and this year, he is its president. He also belongs to the Dramatic Club. A participant in three of our operettas, last year, Mac also played an important role in the Junior Class Play. “Mac’s” immediate plan for the futu re is to attend a music school. None of us will ever forget his ex¬ cellent performances in the several plays he has acted in. HARVEY EARL WISE, JR. February 5, 1925 Harvey is another one of Salisbury’s proud sons. Throughout his school days, Harvey has shown great interest in athletics. He has participated in basket¬ ball, softball, and gym exhibits. All of his classmates will remember him for his witty but corny remarks. Harvey plans to enter the Navy. ROY WAYNE WITHERS October 17, 1925 “Cy” comes originally from Henderson, Kentucky, via Chicago. This year, he is a member of the Cam¬ era Club and is news reporter of that organization. Roy hopes to be a chemical engineer. We prophesy that he will be as successful in that field as he has been “playing the field.” MARY ADEL WROTEN June 16, 1926 “Dell” is another of Salisbury’s “chillen.” For two years, she was an efficient member of the Student Council, in her third year, the Library Club, and in her fourth year, the Monitor Club claimed her atten¬ tion. She has taken an active part in intramural sports. In her last year, her family moved to Cam¬ bridge, but “Dell” stayed wtih her dear Alma Mater. Adel plans to enter college. We will all remember her for the sincerity of her convictions. CALVIN ELWOOD YOUNG March 6, 1925 Parksley, Virginia, really lost something when Cal¬ vin came to Salisbury. Since he has been in high school, he has held different home room offices, in¬ cluding president. When he finally gets his diploma, “Clem” says he supposes he will go in the Army. We wonder if his top sergeant will appreciate all those wisecracks that he is so famous for. We hope he like s them as much as we have. 34
