Flower, Lilac Motto, Loyalty CLASS HISTORY Being the histoiian of the splendid Sophomore tlass, I shall relate briefly the main events of this year. Many of us ire skilled in mathematics, theme writing, art, music and domestic science. Soon after school had begun we initiated the Freshies and due to the supervision of Misses Jordan and Taylor (class advisors) we put it over successfully. Instead of entertaining them they had the honor of entertaining us with speeches, tongs and stunts. We showed our appreciation by giving them a bountiful feed. One of our brilliant organizations is our class basket ball team, the envy of all the other classes Such players as Fred Krile, Bruce Wall, Clinton Wall, Glcrn Goddard, Jean Walden, Elbert Neill, and the writer had the honor of composing the team. Some of the girls were a'so skilled in this gentle ait, they being Ellc-n Cole. Mary Smith, and Anna Edwards We have several pairs of ardent lovers such as Glen Ferrell and Irene Wallace, Glenn Goddard and Ruth Bartley, Robert Ross and Rita Walker, and Jean Walden is occasionally seen with a Freshman. Pauline Janes. We are ’ ather short on bo s as the girls outnumber us two to one. In our midst arc sevcial fair looking girls who help to spread our fame at home and abroad. W. Herbert Baldridge, Jr., Historian. THE NEED OF A NEW GYMNASIUM This subject is net a new one for my consideration, as I have felt for some time the growing need of a larger and better athletic room. There is much truth spoken in jests when our opponents call our gym a “cracker box” or “chicken coop.” As people take more and more interest in athletics and as our crowds increase, the gymnasium, which was 3mal! in the beginning, must ho enlarged to accommodate the crowds. Then again. 1 feel That it must be a handicap to practice or. a small floor and go out to other towns where teams are met on much larger ones. In considering the splendid record our boys have made this year I am inclined to believe we should build them a splendid new gymnasium, one in which we shall all be proud. —G!en Ferrell, ’28. 1020 Twenty-Nine

 ■■■o pM m o v (r—i Our Own Movie Our Hero ......... Raymond Robertson Our Heroine .... Mary Elizabeth Gilbert Our Villain.......... Raul Moberley Our Villainess ....... Wilda Grider First Reel—The Reginning One night when the moon failed to rise, Our Hero was on his way to call on Our Heroine. As his magnificent Ford rounded the curve on Hotsy-Totsy Hill, Our Hero perceived the body of a beautiful woman in his path. Although he was going one hundred and eighty-five miles per hour, his wonderful agility permitted him to stop within onc-sixteenth of an inch from her. He quickly descended from his car and went to her. As he stooped to pick her up, he received a terrific blow on the crown of his lovely auburn hair. The suddenness of the blow thoroughly surprised him. Second Reel—Four Hours Later. When Our Hero glanced about him, he was leisurely riding alone in the spacious back seat of his own car. As he became accustomed to the darkness, he saw a veiled woman and a heavy, thick-necked, ruddy complexioned man in the front seat. Our Hero sat perfectly quiet for a few seconds and then quickly opened the door and leaped upon a passing freight train. Our Villain immediately sensed that the plot was thickening and “stepped on the gas.” The race was on—Our Hero on the Hying freight and Our Villain in the six-cylinder Ford. Third Reel—The Riot Thickens. On and on went the race, until the freight stopped at Charlestonturrl. Our Hero thickened the plot by walking calmly before the on-rushing Ford. But Our Villain evidently wanted him alive for he did not run him down. He stopped ten miles down the road and when Our Hero came up, he tapped him on his Auburn crown and bound him, leg and limb. Fourth Reel—Enter Our Heroine Our Heroine by this time, was getting quite uneasy about the non-arrival of Our Hero. She sat by the window wondering whether he was un-tiue or was detained. Then suddenly she perceived Our Hero’s car coming at a terrific speed down the highway. Something seemed to tell Our Heroine that Our Hero was not at the wheel so she ran down to the road. On and on came the big car, and she waited. As it was about to pass her, Our Heroine leaped onto the spare tire at the rear. Fifth Reel—More Thickening in the Riot. On and on fled Our Villain and Our Villainess with Our Hero dying in the back seat and Our Heroine more and more faint and about to loosen her hold and die a more tragic death than Our Hero, who, at least, had a soft seat. Sixth Reel—The Climax. Bangl Our Villain stopped the car. On seeing a flat tire he went to the rear of the car for the spare tire and there he saw Our Heroine. Our Villainess, becoming anxious when Our Villain did not return to the car after an elapse of an hour, went to the rear of the car and saw Our Villain and Our Heroine embracing. She went back into the car and freed her reel husband and Our Hero.. Seventh Reel—The End. Our Hero and Our Villainess attend the beautiful wedding of Our Heroine and Our Villain. Bits of Conversation Rve Overheard George Goddard—Haven’t you missed me? Miss Gustafson—Well, no, George, I haven’t, since you are neither in any of my classes, nor in my assembly. Have you been ill? George- I’d say. Was in bed all last night. (George has spell of coughing) Miss G. Be careful there, George, or you’ll have to be in bed all right tonight, too. 2 Arland—Get out of my way, Mary. Don’t try to block me cause I can move 170 pounds. Mary Liz—Yes, but you can’t move 270. 3 Mr. Curry—(the day before the District tournament)—What’s our first game in the district tournament at Charleston? Mr. Dunscomb—Mattoon. And our second game will probably be with Strasburg. Mr. Curry—Oh, there is to be a second game? 4 Vivian Edwards—Say, did you see “The Merry Widow”? Helen Nichols—No, was it good? Vivian—I’ll say. Helen—What was it about? Vivian—Oh, a king, two princes and a woman. 5 Ralph Neill (Just before Modern History class commenced on March 6)—Where did Miss Burd go? Freddie Krite—Mrs. Burd Dunn done w’ent to see her man. 6 Bus (eye sparkling and a broad grin on his face)—Oh, Jobie, d-do you know what I saw a-at the t-top of the stairs this morning? Jobie—No, what? Bus—K-Katherine! (Katherine Head from Charleston of course). Notice, Please— Me ................. Raul Moberley My curls ........lamaine Armstrong My girl.............Donald Rozene My new dress........... Maud Jones My marcel ................... Mrs. Dunn 102(3 Thirty
