GUY BROOKS “ Actions speak louder than words.” Guy’s actions really show us his true self. Al- though he is quiet, he has found a place in the hearts of many ot his class-mates. F.ach one is proud of possessing his friendship. EMILY BUSBY Vice-President Lanier Literary Society Lunch Room Director Dramatic Club A sunny smile and golden hair, Lips that laugh and eyes that dare; There’s something about her you can’t resist, This pretty, talented, lovable miss. And we really think all of this about our F.mily. WILLIAM BUTT Dramatic Club “Billie” excels in acting, In French and music, too; In fact, there’s hardly anything That Billie Butt can’t do. HERBERT BUXTON Vice-President Senior Class Manager Varsity Basketball Assistant Advertising Manager, “ President ” Dramatic Club Herbert Earl is versatile. He has won fame in dramatics, as manager of the basketball team (and by the way, he is no mean player himself), and as an able member of the “ President ” Staff. No wonder he is well liked.

EMMA THERESE CREECY She’s sweet, she’s modest, sincere and true, More generous a girl one never knew. Emma’s dependability and common sense will be missed in the office as well as throughout the whole class. JEROME P. CARR Editor-in-Chief, “ Student ” Student Council Dramatic Club “The big little man.” Jerome is a quick thinker and a popular member of the Senior Class. His smile and keen sense of humor have made him well known during his four years at Wilson and his able work as Editor of the “ Student ” is a credit to the school. Then, too, his unusual gift of oratory that enabled him to represent Wilson in the State debating contest makes him an all-around excellent student. WILLIAM CHERRY William will be remembered as one of the most thoughtful and sincere members of our class. His winning smile and willingness to help at all times shall be sincerely missed. RUTH CARMINE Ruth is a stylish girl with the sweetest person- ality imaginable. Everyone who knews her loves her, and those who don’t know her had better wake up and find out what they’re missing. LESLIE COLLIER Apart from the admiration accorded his prowess on the gridiron, “Yock” also wins triends by his general likeableness. 23
