Not only has Henry found time to enroll in all the classes but he has enjoyed all the extra curricular activities open to stu¬ dents at Wilson Memorial. He has always been at the top in everything but this year it has been more difficult for him because of the large student body which numbers 1500, an increase over former years. Henry, because he tried to take part in so many activities, became fast friends with two of the schools ' newcomers—Poo-Ella-Larson and Google-Eyed-Gus, who were created as reporters for the Wilson Echo by the Journalism class. These three have made an interesting trio and very little has escaped their sharp eyes and listening ears. While attending the basketball games, Henry found out that Wilson needed a scoreboard in the gym to easier record those Wilson victor es and he talked the 1950 graduates into buying one to leave as a gift to the school. This new electric scoreboard now hangs in one end of the gym as another proven accomplish¬ ment of the students at Wilson. Wishing to know how his voice really sounded to other people, Henry decided that Wilson needed a disc recorder. He wasn ' t quite the first to think of this, as several of the teachers and club members had already gotten the idea and made the request that it be bought. With the aid of the school finances a disc re¬ corder was purchased and recordings can be made daily in any classroom for teach¬ ing purposes. Henry has delighted his hearers with his French recordings. Henry was amazed at the beginning of the year to find that the faculty had many new faces among the 55 members. He always enjoyed visiting Mr. Garrett’s Phys. Ed classes but Uncle Sam decided early in October that Mr. Garrett was “for him” so Henry bid him a fond farewell. Henry was one of the first to welcome Miss Sherman back to her teaching position in the Home Ec. Department after an absence of 5 months. These are just a few of the interesting things Henry has done this year but if you will turn through the following pages vou may go with him on a few of his capers. e are proud to have the friendship of Henry the Hornet and hope he will return to scamper through the corridors of Wilson next year.

D E D I C A T E D TO HUGH K. CASSELL The Superintendent of Augusta Cou nty Schools We respectfully dedicate the 1951 Hornet’s Nest in recognition cf the distinguished service which he has rendered the cause of education in Augusta County and the state of Virginia. For more than a generation as classroom teacher, principal, superintendent of schools, and leader in professional organizations, he has shown by example those hirer qualities of living which come only with a true understanding of ones fellow- man. We, the members of the Hornet’s Nest staff, are honored to have this op¬ portunity to express our appreciat’on to Mr. Cassell for his outstanding work in our behalf and in the behalf of all youth everywhere. Without his efforts, the story of WILSON MEMORIAL HIGH SCHOOL would not he complete. We dedicate this 1951 volume of the Hornet’s Nest with deepest respect and admiration to Mr. Hugh K. Cassell. In Recognition Of Those Who Have Graduated From Wilson Memorial High School And Are Now Serving With Uncle Sam It seems fitting that in this 1951 Hornet’s Nest, we the members of the start’ should give special recognition to those young men and women who have gradu¬ ated from Wilson Memorial High School Since its founding in September 1947 and who are now serving their country in some branch of the Armed Forces. We feel these young men and women have been called upon to sacrifice mucn in their early life but because they have learned well the principles which we as a democracy hold dear do not feel anything they sacrifice too much. This high school was made possible only a few years ago as a result of World War 11. Along these corridors and in these classrooms recuperated boys who had been wounded on the battlegrounds and these buildings previously used as a hospital were turned over to Augusta County and the State of Virginia to be used as an educational center. Thus was born Wilson Memorial High School, one of the good things coming out of a barbarious cruel war. Now we are again in the midst of even more troublesome times and our young men and women have been called upon to help bring peace out of chaos to the world. To these graduates who are now serving in their country’s forces we are wishing the best of luck and we would like to say, “Well done. We are proud of you.” Lester G.

Oh yes! We are the first class to have spent four years at W ilson getting an education. No, we’re not dumb, we iust happened to have started here as freshmen. Yes siree, we, the graduating class of ’51 are proud of the fact that we are the first class to spend four years of our life getting an edu¬ cation at this wonderful school. Back in the seventh grade we heard the news that they were going to combine the four schools into one big consolidated school. That meant that we would have to come here c.s Freshmen. The only friends we would have would be the ones at our small schools. If we were put into one big school, we would only know about two or three hundred people out of about 1200. And the way they mixed us up. Oh, how would we ever get along? Our Freshman year went by fast as we made new friends and participated in the many activities. In spite of the fact that we w ' ere frightened, we got along beautifully with one another. Finally after months of diligent study we became Sophomores. By this time we had become well acquainted with the school and had made many new ' friends. We became in¬ terested in more and more activities. Then as time rolled on we became Juniors, another step higher in our education. The main event of our junior year was the “Junior-Senior Prom” that W ' e sponsored for the Seniors. And now, here we are, Seniors, Whew! If it had not been for Mr. McChesney, our principal, and his wonderful faculty, we never would have made it. Never-the-less, here we are, 220 proud Seniors of the graduating class of 1951, leaving a school that we will never forget. CHARLES E. ACREE Cluick” Football ' 48-’51 Rami ’48-’51, Homeroom V. Pres.

Gaining seven Wise” Sophomores in 49”. we maneged to walk through the doors of W ilson without being pushed. And now, with the sum total of 265 members, we are called Noble” [uniors. Juniors, can you believe it??? We have three big, hard years of high school behind us, and only one more to go—( for some of us), fust the thought of grad¬ uating in 52 makes most of us feel- -“you know how”! Do you remember in 1948, classmates, when we were floundering from class to class? Hut we got used to those long corridors and learned all the short cuts. Our Sophomore year could never be forgotten with all those good assemblies, wonderful parties and oh ! yes our popularity wq gained in Varsity Sports. This year finds us real business-like, electing our class officers with care, at¬ tending assemblies promptly and oh ! yes, “feeling our oats”. Our goal now is to become those long awaited “Dignified” Seniors. (lass ol Hilda Alexander Martha Arehart Jane Arnold Mary A.

We were those last year s green horns returning with years experience. Old friends were met and new classes, ruled over by new teachers were attended. We, as Sophomores, were already familiar with the system at Wilson but on the first day there lay before us the ever present undertakings of getting used to new classes, schedules, and so on, but after a few mistakes and changes we were ready to settle down to a year’s hard work. At an assembly during the first weeks of school, officers were elected and plans laid for the coming year. A well planned sports calendar was presented to us for our enjoyment. A few of our class are participants in athletics which makes for added enthusiasm but all who attended those planned activities agree that we have something to look forward to. Several socials and parties have been enjoyed during this year and we are looking forward to the time when we will be another year nearer our goal of grad¬ uation. We wish to give credit to those who have helped to make our Sophomore year a memorable one; mainlv our homeroom teachers and the school administration.

Freshman Class History On September fifth a new experience started for some 480 boys and girls from 7 schools in Augusta County. On that dav the eighth graders from Stuarts Draft, New Hope, Fishersville, Beverley Manor, Greenville, Crimora and Middle- brook schools assembled in the gym to begin their new life at Wilson as Freshmen. We all thought we were lost in the long corridors and in the maze of class¬ rooms, but with the help of Mr. McChesnev, the teachers and upper classmen we were soon headed in the right direction and knew everv nook of the area. School life at Wilson is not as dull and drab as we had expected ; in fact with the many diversified activities we find it very interesting and enjoyable. We all feel that if the rest of our high school life is as enjoyable as this first year has been we will never regret a minute of it. We the members of the Freshman class would like to take this opportunity to thank our principals, teachers, and upper classmates for the cooperation and helpfulness they have given us in making this a profitable and enjoyable first vear at Wilson.

Though small in number, they are strong in mind and are working to establish one of the most active clubs in school. At the beginning of the year the members set to work to revise the Constitution of the club and voted to become a member of the National Organization. The regular meetings are held on the second and fourth Thursday in the Conference Room. In November the following officers were elected: JOHN DOWELL. President SARAH VARNER. Vice President JENNY MAE FORBES . Secretary MARGIE FITZGERALD. Treasurer CHARLENE COURSEY. Reporter GLENNA KESTERSON . Student Advisor SHIRLEY HUNTER.i. Song Leader JIMMY BROWN. Co-Historian BILLY CONYERS . ..... Co-Historian ISABELL BEDARD . Parliamentarian NANCY-SMITH. Librarian The Sponsors: Mrs. Layman, Mr. McQuain. Safety (Hub The Safety Club meets with Mr. J. W. Berry on the first Thursday of eacn month in the conference room. Only hoys who have been chosen and approved by Mr. Gilkerson, Mr. Dehaven, Mr. Berry and the agriculture teachers and those boys who have proven their capability in operating buses are allowed to transport students to and from Wilson. These boys and their substitutes make up the great¬ er part of the safety club. The purpose of the meetings is to present problems confronting the drivers and to discuss policies of safe and efficient bus operation. The number of buses has increased to twenty-five this year. These buses transport approximately 11 SO students to and from points in the county as far as Swoope, Greenville, Sherando, Harriston, and McKinley. Our bus service this year has been much better since the county garage was moved to Wilson. The bus driver can tell the mechanic what is wrong with his bus, thus getting more efficient service. 11 the bus does not need the services of the garage, the driver parks it on a specified lot and fills out a daily gas report for Mr. Guffey, our bus attendant at Wilson. This year we have again posted lists of students and time schedules in the buses. These schedules are followed closely by the driver so that the student will know when to expect the bus. In addition to our duty as bus drivers we have given our services in patrol- hng at football games and other activities. It has also been our aim to make the students at Wilson safety conscious. Officers are: CHARLES MARKS . President HARRY BEARD . Vice-President AUSTIN HATTER . Secretary TOMMY WOMBLE. Treasurer MR. J. W. BERRY. Adviser Latin (Huh The Latin Club this year is made up of first and second year students, and those who have completed two years of Latin. In early September the following officers were named: SARAH VARNER . President VIRGINIA WOMBLE . Vice President TOHN R. DOWEL]. Secretary PATSY LUTZ . Treasurer JACK MASON . Reporter In December Jack left us and the president appointed Virginia Wise to tdl out the unexpired term. The club plans to issue a new spaper as it did last year. A Festival of Gods is also planned. At this Festival the main Roman Gods will be named from the language clubs. The club was named “Heres to Latin” in October and adopted as its motto: “Non est vivere sed volere vita” or ‘‘Life is accomplishment not mere existence. The club is established to prove to students that Latin is not all work and no play. The students find by attending the Latin Club that there is much fun in tak¬ ing part in the projects sponsored by club. Some of these projects are: The pres¬ entation of c h rf plays in Latin; the studying of old costumes; finding Latin mottoes on money and seals and man} - more things which keep interest high m the club. We owe much to our faithful sponsor Mrs. Lutz. Her work with the Latin Club has been commended by all of its members. With her guidance the projects for the club have been set up and are being carried out. AW hope we are accomplishing something in our club life not merely existing. wm Wilson Memorial 4-11 (Hubs 4- I I 0 I k I .S The Wilson Memorial girls -111 club lias 23 members. j bey are all taking ' “Looking My Best” lor their winter project.

The en¬ tire group consisting of eight has carried out their job of stimulating interest in athletics and backing all phases of the school’s athletic program. Anne O’Brien was chosen as head cheerleader for the year and has found the cooperation between the cheerleaders a real pleasure and inspiration. Several new and original yells have been contributed by Jewell and Ada Ann. Mrs. McCrary, as sponsor, has been helpful and made fun out of work for all con¬ cerned. Another new addition this year has been that of the idea of having Junior Varsity cheerleaders who work under the direction of Miss Monahan and Miss Meade. These girls are either Freshmen or Sophomores and stand in line for position as a Varsity cheerleader next year.

You have to stay right with the class, So study hard each night, You must learn to be accurate And get each problem right. In class you work upon the board Ann learn to help each other, If you have a hard problem at home Then yi u get help from Mother. When test dav comes along And you just ' bare! get by. Miss Eisenberg seems to think That you didn’t even try. And as the six-weeks ends You know you’ll get an A or I!, Then your report card says You only got a C. But you’ll know better Than to take this class next year, You’ll pick something easier Than this one was to bear. —Virginia Wilson A THUNDER STORM Big white clouds boiled on the western horizon like baskets of cotton being turned over and over. That was a sure sign of rain, being as hot and sultry as it was. Horses and wagons were brought from the barn to start the day’s work of bringing in the hay. The two of us knew we would have to work hard in order to get the precious alfalfa in before the inevitable thunderstorm in the afternoon. All morning we pitched, loaded, unloaded and watched the constantly boiling clouds growing larger and darker and piling higher into the sky. In the early afternoon with at least two more loads of hay in the field, the sun had been covered by the ever increasing dark clouds. As we had almost finished loading the last load, the wind began to blow, cooling the air. Rain was on its way, as it had hid the distant mountains completely. As the last shock was loaded, lightning flashed and cracked, thunder clapped and then rumbled oil like a huge chariot rushing ' through a cobble-stone street. I he horses reared and galloped, fearful of the im¬ pending storm. As the rain beat mercilessly down on us, we kept wishing the barn was closer, but it was soon reached and the ' wagons pulled inside to be unloaded later. Outside the lightning flashed again and again, followed by thunder which roared like an angry lion. Little muddy streams of water began running down the hills and into the ditches. Because it was raining too hard to go to the house, we stayed in the barn watching and waiting for the rain to slacken. About an hour later the sun shone brightly and a rainbow was painted against the eastern sky. The fields were fresh and green again as though they just had an early morning bath, but above all the hay was saved for the winter feed. —Ann Masincupp MY FLOWERS I plant my flowers in the spring, While robins hop around and sing. I plant the seeds there row by row, Then I sit back and watch them grow. I take some time from my play, To tend my flowers every day. Day by day they have grown tall, Far above the garden wall. And I imagine I can hear Everyone from far and near, Speaking of my flowers so sweet, As they pass along the street. —Teon Hakouff A FRIGHTFUL NIGHT We had been waiting somewhat impatiently for this day for a long time. Mr. Brannan’s old station wagon rattled over the dirt road, carrying me and eight other giggling girls to the old deserted farmhouse where we were to spend the night. Mr. Brannan, after cautioning us and reminding us to behave ourselves, got into his “bucket of bolts” as he called his station wagon and started back to town. Jt was the middle of August and one of the hottest days of that summer. It stayed hot until about twelve-thirty that night when the wind began to blow, a little at first and then harder and harder until the entire house shook, window panes fell out and crackled on the door. It began to rain, not a gentle sleepy rain, but a terrifying, jerking rain that with the help of the wind forced its way through the old oak trees that surrounded the house, tearing off branches that fell on the old tin roof and onto the ground. Lightning came in tremendous sheets which illuminated the whole farm. Then the thunder roared and grumbled, as if mock¬ ing the lightning and shaming it for not damaging anything on the earth. All at once, like an assembly which is called to order the night became a trancjuil one. The storm was over. But still within ns was that gripping fear of darkness and night and the horror it brings to mind. —Shirley Firzgerald THE ODD CEMETERY While taking one of my autumn Sunday afternoon walks 1 came upon a cemetery of many years back. I walked among the stones, looking at the almost invisible odd names on them. Over in one corner under a large oak tree, the ruins of an old vault caught my attention. All trace of identification was gone, as the top and sides had fallen in. The day was warm and sunny and 1 was tired so I sat down against the vault to rest. A few minutes later, a cloud of smoke came up from the vault, out of it came a little imp who sat down on the ruins of the vault. He gave me a scowl and started to fire questions in my direction so rapidly that 1 didn’t have time to answer them. “Where did 1 come from, Who was 1 ? What was 1 doing here?, and When was 1 going to leave?” Then he blew a whistle and from each grave came one of the same strange little imps. They all came on the run to the vault of the first imp, whose name I found out later was Jimmy John, the leader of the imps. They all looked at me very strangely but not a one said a word. First roll was called and when I heard the funny names and funny voices, 1 laughed in spite of myself. Each turned and gave me a nasty look so I thought I had better control my emotions hereafter. Next a business meeting was held and the main discussion was me! Jimmy John asked me his list of questions over, but this time he let me answer them and after he was through, 1 was sure he knew all about me. A motion was then made and passed that I be excuted for finding them. I had a hearty laugh then because the thought of ninety-nine little imps executing me was just too much. They all gave me another hard look, but proceeded to vote on how they would carry out the motion. Thirty-three wanted me beheaded, thirty- three wanted me burned at the stake and thirty-three wanted me hanged. Jimmy John decided to do all three by first hanging me, then beheading me and then letting my body and head fall into the tire. By this time 1 was beginning to wonder if 1 was safe or not. Before 1 could move, most of them had rushed me, tied me hand and foot and put a rope and sack over my head. Close by 1 heard a fire crackle as I felt myself being dragged to stand on the ruins of the vault. The rope was put over an overhanging limb and just as 1 was going to be pushed off the vault I opened my eyes. What on earth had happened anyway? I felt my neck as it hurt a little and there were rope burns on it! 1 hurried home wondering just what had happened, but to this day, 1 still don’t know. Ann Masincupp VIEWING A STORM FROM THE FIELDS It was a hot |ulv afternoon. The sky was a brilliant shade of blue and old man sun was shining with all his force. Farmers were working in the fields, har¬ vesting their golden sheaves of wheat. Then suddenly, as if appearing from nowhere, came a small puffy white cloud. Soon larger white clouds boiled up around the small one. The farmers kept on working, not noticing the change taking place in the heavens. In a few more minutes the beautiful white clouds had changed into a dark ominous black color. The heavy clouds soon blotted out the sun ' s rays and the farmers noticed the change. The atmosphere became hot and sticky, and a hot breeze brought the fragrant smell of rain. The farmers grabbed their water jugs, climbed on the wagons and headed to¬ ward the barn. But the storm was faster than the men, for a low warning rumble came from the billowing black sky. A flash of light made the green in the hills very vivid and the land seemed almost sinister in its brilliance. A loud clap of thunder shook the ground and re-echoed from the hills. Feeling the first few ' drops of rain, some of the animals hurried toward the barn ; chickens, fluttering and squawking, hurried to shelter. The rain began to fall harder upon the men in the wagons, but they reached the barn before the storm became too severe. The wind blew the now heavy downpour in all directions, and the lightning and thunder raged on. This did not last long, for soon the thunder rumbled away and the flashes of lightning grew dimmer. The black clouds rolled back, revealing patches of bright blue and a colorful rainbow arched itself across the western part of the sky. The storm had done no damage, but had washed everything in its pathway and left it dripping with water and shining brightly. Soon the sun broke through the clouds, drying everything it touched and enabling the farmers to complete their job on the morrow. —Don i a Grove THE WINDOW SCENE Waking after what seemed like an endless night both eyes popped open with a snap and behold : what a glorious sight, for Jack Frost’s trail was thick on the window pane and the sun, which was coming over the snow capped hill, was mak¬ ing it stand out like thousands of diamonds pitched together. Finally lack’s design was melted away and I could see millions of little snow flakes resting quietly after their long journey downward. I looked out in the other direction and I could see the cows coming in to the barn for their morning feed and behind them, a little calf which looked as fresh and clean as the top layer of snow. Across the hill from the barn were the pine trees, now drooping under the weight of the snow on their long, slender branches. Beside them, tall and straight, stood the walnut, oak and other trees; on their limbs were tiny birds shaking the snow from their frail bodies. Again I shifted my view and I could see the neighbors ' houses, each with a big white hat shining very brightly under the winter sun. Then l could see the huge snow plow creeping slowly but surely down the snow drifted road. Mother called, but I didn’t want to go to school when the earth was like one big Huffy marshmallow, until I remembered that today was December 22 and we were going to make candy and cook.es for the holidays. —Ann Harris INSIDE A PURSE One day as I was walking down the street 1 suddenly glanced down at my feet and there lay a purse which some unfortunate woman or girl had dropped. 1 picked it up and carried it home, there to find some kind of identification. But alas! What complications 1 ran into when 1 opened this purse. From the things it seemed to contain it looked more like a pawn shop than a purse. The first thing I found inside of it was a small change purse which contained a memorandum, a half of a st.ck of gum, a love note and last, but not least, twelve- cents. As 1 ventured farther into this pawn shop” I found three kleenex, one pencil, a pen, two 3 cent stamps, a pair of scissors, and a fingernail file. Yet from this shop I had removed only a small fraction of the things it con¬ tained. Other things found were an unfinished letter, an envelope addressed to someone in Ohio, a shoe string, fifty hair pins, a scarf, three pairs of stockings, a toy truck, an eraser, a pocket dictionary, a bag of candy, a folder full of pictures which contained no kind of identification and a wrist watch which was not running. At last, right at the bottom, 1 found a driver’s permit. (If a cop ever stopped this person, I don’t know how she would have found it.) From this permit I learned that the person to whom it belonged was Mrs. Progress who lived at 307 Willow Road. But, to my sorrow I could not get everything back into the purse. The only thing left for me to do was to write her a letter and tell her to come and get her belongings, so I wrote her the letter that follows: Dear Mrs. Progress, 1 am happy to inform you that 1 found your purse on the street the other day. It was necessary for me to remove the contents of the purse to find some kind of identification, but to my sorrow I could not get the articles back into the purse. I would like for vou lo please come by my house and pick up your purse. I live at 3216 West Street. 1 will be expecting you.” Yours truly, John West -Frank Reese THE VASE The November wind whipped around the lawns of the elaborate homes on Walnut Avenue, carrying the falling leaves from one place to another. It was a cold, damp wind that threatened to bring rain any minute. It was now about dusk and all day it had been cold and dreary. The Dabney home, on Walnut Avenue had a rock walk which led up to the porch with its huge ivory columns. On a tremendous white door at the center of the porch was a large brass doorknocker. On the bottom of the doorknocker was a shiny brass plate inscribed John R. Dabney, M. D. Inside the house beside the fireplace stood Dr. Dabney’s only child, Martha. But Martha was no longer a child; she was a young girl of eighteen. Martha could not remember her mother, who had been dead for seventeen years. Except for this, Martha had had everything that money would buy, and a very devoted father; therefore she wanted for nothing. She sat down on the sofa and began to think back over the last hour and a half. She remembered rushing into the house and finding her father laughing and gay. But his mood changed when she asked him for three hundred dollars to buy an outfit. She remembered the stern look in his eyes when he had said no. She begged and finally grew angry and demanded that lie give in. He spoke sharply to her for the first time in her memory. She seized with one hand a vase which had belonged to her mother. Rashly she threw it at her father. It had missed him and smashed through the huge picture window at the front of the parlor. Then as if determined to punish her, lie had crumpled to the floor. She had run to him; it was a heart attack—he had had them before. This time he was dead! She had fainted. When she came to the house was crowded with people. An ambulance had been called and her father had been carried away. Everyone was waiting for her to tell what had happened but she had given them a false explana¬ tion and ordered them out of the house. That is why Martha Dabney sat in the cold dark house, too frightened and too upset for tears. She got up and made her way across the room. Beside th e window she kneeled and began to pick up the pieces of her mother’s vase. If was smashed and broken but it could lie put together again. She would glue il together but scars would be left. Martha began to compare her life with the vase. She could patch things up but there would always be a dark spot in her life. She would start a new life anyway, and tomorrow she would be different. Shirley Fitzgerald MUSIC Clashing chords, chromatic scales, Eighth notes must be played with skill. C scale, G scale, many more, Dancing notes the measures fill. Major scales have minor keys, Some may sound a little queer. Music with its mellow tones, Seems to float into the ear. When there’s music in the air, Things just always go all right. If you feel a little blue, Music helps to make things bright. —Isabel Redard REVERSE By day upon a hollow limb, An owl sits in a tree. When I look up 1 can see him, But he cannot see me. By night the owl sits in a tree, Out upon a limb. When he looks down he can see me, But 1 cannot see him. —English III, 4tii Period CHRISTMAS SNOW Drifting, sifting through the cedars; Drawing white lines through the night; Gleaming, streaming bv the windows, Bright with colored Christmas light. Curling, swirling ' round the chimney; Piling blankets on the roof Over sleeping, peeping children, Listening for a reindeer hoof. Peeping, creeping over hilltops; Lighting sparkles on the snow; Meeting, greeting a white morning, Comes the sun with Christmas glow. Junior 5tii Period English THE SHADOW OF A DOUBT Most of the village of Villeroi was squeezed into the courtroom. I he ac¬ cused man sat in the prisoner ' s box and rested his fat hands upon the rail. Phillippe Durand, the famous defense attorney from Brussels who had cheat¬ ed the gallows sixty-three times in sixty-five murder trials, was a baldish little man whose suit could have used a pressing. Gentlemen of the jury,” lie began quietly. “Henri Volpin is accused of the murder of seven women. For almost a week I have listened as your prosecutor tightened the noose around my client’s neck. “Now I ask you to remember that no eyewitness has been produced. No one has found so much as a fingernail of the missing girls. The prosecutor’s case is based entirely on circumstantial evidence—some half remembered words, a button here, a few women ' s shoes. “At this moment, if you were polled, 1 know what your verdict would be. Some of you would even be glad to help with the rope. “Henri Volpin is a quiet little man and I doubt if anyone has ever given him a second look during the forty-one years he has lived in Villeroi. And in a small village that is not the usual thing. An extra glass of cognac, a walk with a girl is enough to get a man talked about. According to the testimony this is what happened : One evening a car drove up to your only hotel. An expensively dressed young man and a girl wearing no stockings demanded and got the best room. The hotelkeeper’s wife testified she heard loud talking in their room the next morning. She told you that the young man drove away and left the girl behind. That afternoon the strange girl walked into the little cafe where Henri was reading the paper over a beer. She sat down with him. “The waiter told you Henri bought a bottle of cognac, and the pair discussed going to Volpin’s home. The girl was never seen again. The Learned prosecu¬ tor has produced no one who saw the pair enter the defendant’s house. But he offers as evidence a high heeled shoe found in Volpin’s kitchen. The hotelkeeper ' s wife has recognized it as belonging to the strange girl. Next you heard the testimony concerning Louise Rohn, the schoolteacher from Saint-Vith. The head of the school at Saint-Vith told you that Mile. Rohn resigned her position to come to Villeroi and marry a bookkeeper named Volpin. The cartman swore he deposited the lady and her baggage in front of the defend¬ ant’s door. The prosecutor showed you a brown walking shoe found in Volpin’s wine cellar and Mile. Rohn’s sister came from Saint-V ' th and positively identified it. “You have heard the detailed testimony concerning the disappearance of five other girls under more or less similar circumstances. “This is the case against Henri Volpin. Remember, it is not a capital offense to collect shoes. Under the law von must not send Henri Volpin to his death un¬ less you are convinced, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that he committed murder.” He paused looking at each juror in turn. 1 say you do doubt,” he whisper¬ ed, “even though you may not be aware of it yourselves.” “There is no doubt!” shouted the sister of the missing schoolteacher. The judge quieted the courtroom and the paunchy little lawyer continued. “If one ol the girls you are so sure is dead were to walk into this courtroom what would you say? Would you still be sure the other six were dead? Would you still be sure there is no doubt.” He slowly raised his arm and pointed to the green door in the back of the courtroom. Gentlemen of the jury,” he commanded, “1 ask you to direct your eyes to that door.” There was a sharp intake of breath as heads throughout the courtroom turn¬ ed. The stenographer stopped writing. A small boy in the front of the room stood up. “Forgive me for building up your hopes. Forgive me for this shabby little trick. No one is going to walk through that door. But I was the only one in this courtroom who was sure of that. Everybody else thought someone might. In every mind there was a doubt. Gentlemen of the jury, if there was doubt in your mind you must acquit this man. Philip Durand sat down. As the jury hied out the stenographer leaned over and whispered to the man next to him, “That lawyer from Brussels is really something. Volpin will walk out of here a free man.” But the verdict was guilty. The sentence was death by hanging. One of the jurors had noticed that Volpin had never once looked toward the door. —Eddie McGavock Senior Hall MOST LIKELY TO SUCCEED Ann Masincupp 11unter Mabry CUTEST Patsy Wampler Charlie Huff Teddy McCray BEST ALL AROUND Betty McCune Mickey Parrish MOST CONCEITED Margaret Hanger Billy Graham NEATEST Mickey Daugherty Wm.

McClure Printing Company THE RUNNELS PRESS COLLEGE ANNUALS AND CATALOGS.FINE ADVERTISING PRINTING 19 West Frederick St. Phone 5-9312 Staunton, Virginia Sometimes it is the nature of a craft to create an unbreakable tie between itself and the worker in that field, a heart attachment equal to lifetime devotion. One familiar example is PRINTING. Once editor, once compositor, or press¬ man catches the spirit of the shop, the spell is seldom broken. Like the odor of a camp fire, or a whiff of salt air, the beloved tang of printer’s ink, symboli¬ cal of a great profession, gets into your heart and soul. School Annuals, Magazines, Newspapers and Special Printing, all smack of it. It is an invisible link that binds all intelligence together. It is the stimulus for creation in business or romance. This craftsmanship, this devotion to service and alert¬ ness to business needs, has nourished and developed an enormous industrial vitality, and whichever way the course of the future runs, the printer will always find himself able to adapt his helpfulness to new opportunity.
