VOLUME VI Editrd and Pukliakad ky SENIOR CLASS WYNNE HIGH SCHOOL Wynne, Arkansas FOREWORD The Staff leaves with you these few pages as a record of the small bit of the work and play of the student body of the Wynne High School during the year of 1927-28, and we hope that this will be the pioneer which has paved the way for a bigger and bet- ter Rainbow in the future. We appreciate the confidence you have placed in us in electing us for these positions, and we can only hope that our efforts have not been in vain.

To her with love and sincere appreciation, we do re- spectfully dedicate this, the sixth volume of the RAINBOW Class Poem Edna Elkins Hail, friends, you hearty champions Of the world’s most worthy cause; ’Ere into that world we wander, On its threshold, now we pause. Are we ready, loyal classmates. All the tasks of life to meet? Is there one who dares not enter. Fearing, lest he face defeat? Others have gone on before us. They, too, were as ‘Seniors’ hailed. All alone they’ve fought life’s battles Some have won others failed! All our aims have been accomplished; All our goals have been attained. We have left a worthy record For Wynne High School’s Hall of Fame. And not one among our number Wishes to retrace his track. Eagerly, life’s gate we enter, Ne’er again shall we turn back. Never more shall we all gather; Never be as classmates known. Childhood passed, school days forgotten, Lo! The world has claimed her own! Yet we pause, one word unspoken. Neither tongue nor pen can tell Of that brief, yet sacred moment. When classmates say the word, “Farewell.” cJAMEjTV EBB SUPERINTENDENT OF Wynne cityschools HEAD OF DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATIONAL ADMINISTRATION MERCER UNIVERSITY summer SCHOOL B-A.

We bequeath to Wynne High School our good name and a quiet building after we leave with our silly giggles, noise, and everlasting gossip. We give and bequeath to the faculty a sweet and unbroken succession of rest- Irss nights and peaceful dreams. We also give them all the amazing knowledge and startling information that we have furnished them from time to time on our various examination papers. To our Sponsor, Miss Best, the profound admiration and ever admiring friendship of the class of 1928. To the Junior Class we leave our Senior dignity, cinder path across the court-yard and all the hollidays and privileges that we were “supposed” to have had. To the Sophomore Class, or the “Three dollar beauty class”, we bequeath all cuds of gum we have left in any likely or unlikely places. To the Freshman Class we bequeath all scraps of paper and stubs of pencils that we may leave in our haste to get away. The remaining parts of this will, the members leave individually. Mildred Crawford bequeaths her study hours to Kate (iooch. Ben Drexler bequeaths his energy to Bill Cogbill, but not his beauty for he fears he will still have future use for that. Johnnie Bussell bequeaths her health, size, and activity to Laurel Brown. Kdna Elkins bequeaths her bewitching eyes and flirtations to Hazel Arnold and Eloise Wallin. Ernest Proctor, Cordon Hinton, Lawrence Mills, and Fred Owen leave their athletic ability to Billy Farr, Lester Charles, Thomas Weeks, and Howland Burnette. Angie Couch bequeaths her good nature to Helen Evans. Jeannette Stacy bequeaths her seat in the study-hall by the paper basket to Jonnie Howland so that she may get all the school gossip just as Jeanette did. Lorena Arnold and Frances Snowden bequeath their compacts to Jewell Montgomery and Virginia Lancaster. They feel that they will not need them any more as they can face the world behind the coat of paint that nature gave them. Claude Starr and Oilbert Hamilton jointly bequeath their sweet dispositions and lovely characters to Hobin Johnson and Charlie Dodd. Herman Elkins and Tate Carson bequeath their height to William Brown. Forest Thomson bequeaths his catchers mitt to Harry Saripkin. In witness whereof, we, the class of 1928, set our hands and seal this the twenty first day of May, one thousand nine hundred and twenty eight. SENIOR CLASS HISTORY (iOHDON HINTON As everything in the world worthy of mention or consideration has a history, I am going to try to give to you the History of the Senior Class of 1928. In the year 1924, we, the class of 1928, entered the W'ynnc High School. The memory of that first day still lingers with us. Appalled by our new sur- roundings, how afraid we poor Freshmen were. Twenty-six in number, we furnished plenty of amusement for the three other classes, for a time. We feel that we have outgrown the most of our barbarous tendencies, al- though we have grave fears for the Juniors along that line. Any organization must have some charter members. We had twenty-four charter members and of these charter members, fourteen have remained to finish with our class today. There were only a few additions to our class during the Freshman year. These were Mildred Crawford and Catherine Halstead, who came to us from the lower grade. They had shown that they were exceptional pupils and were granted a pro- motion. Both proved to be very excellent students. Nothing eventful happened during that year that is worthy of special men- tion. Our Freshman Class was similar to any other Freshman Class in becoming adjusted to the new state of affairs. During our Sophomore year we were very sorry to lose from our number Marcella Hamilton and Katherine Stewart, who by studying diligently in the summer months while the rest played, were able to go up to the Junior Class. Almus (iruby and Elmer Hall finding time hanging heavy on their hands, dropped out and secured a position here in town. Elizabeth Roane decided that she had lather go to school in some other place and moved to Memphis. Flora Sanders went to California, to the land of movie fame. Mary Evelyn Wages deciding that she had rather ring telephones than go to school, secured a position in the telephone office. We were fortunate indeed to have Virginia Headrick, l.elia Collier, Jeanette Stacy, and Elizabeth Campbell enter our class this year and helped prove that our class was the best of any in school. After a long vacation we were glad to return to school for a third year, feeling that we were really of some importance in the life of the school. All of our members except two came back. Paul Wallace and Elizabeth Campbell had moved away during the summer. We were very sorry to lose these two members because both were very good-natured and had always done their part in making this class what it is. Rut we had quite a few new members to join us. Prentiss Robinson finding time during the summer to study hard had become a Junior. Ks- Iher Marsden, Carlos 1 hacker, Ernest Proctor, and Forest Thomson, decided during their Junior year to wait a year and become members of this select class. We are beginning to feel half white, but our modesty forbids our being any more explicit. We will leave it to you to figure out from vour personal observa- tion, just how far we have succeeded. We have now reached Seniordom, the goal we have all striven for. During this year some of our oldest and best students left us. Kitty Cleaver, Delia Collier, and Esther Marsden have deserted us 1o go to college. Katherine Unlisted has moved to van Buren. Carlos Thacker has gone to (ialveston, Texas, to try for a position. Prentiss Robinson decided to drop back with his old classmates so he left us. As old ones went out, new ones took their places. Mrs. Avis Fitz- gerald came with us and remained until Christmas. Herman Elkins, who went to school half of last year and worked the last half, decided to return and try again. Edna Elkins, (ioldman Parish. Annie Lee Moody and Margaretto Smith decided they bad rather graduate with our class so they went to summer school in order to be- come one of us. Claude Starr came to us during our senior vear from awav out West in Jefferson City. Missouri. Thus ends the history of one of the most remarkable classes that ever graduat- H.l 'ro,n the W ynne High School. For four years we have covered ourselves with glory and tonight we stand together for the last time as a class. Though not a thrilling history to relate to outsiders, every part of it is dear to us. and as we part tonight let us look forward to our alumni career of even greater glory. yV RAINBOfi, Class Officers LOCIS SARIPKIN President CLELAND GANN.......................................................Vice-President DOROTHY STACY................................................Secretary Treasurer JONNIE ROWLAND Class Editor JKSSIK MITCHELL . . . “Jess” “A pood disposition is more valuable than gold MH IS SAHIPKIN . . . “Stupie” “Hang sorrow, for care will kill a cat.

Wallace arrived on September 1. to start football practice, he found 23 aspirants for the 1927 Yellow Jackets, ten of whom were letter men. Among those returning from the 1926 undefeated team were: Captain Phil Greenfield. Hinton. Owen. Gann. Saripkin. Proctor. Bass. Howell and Mitchell. The Yellow Jackets were victims of bad breaks in the first three games of the season, tying the first and losing the next two. Then the team struck its stride and was not defeated again until the last game which closed the season with five wins, three losses, and two ties. Captain Dorris Greenfield, a three letter man. and one of the greatest stars ever in the Mi ynne High School, played the most brilliant game of his career. Cleland Gann, another three letter man. played an outstanding game all year. ,.ad was feared all over Eastern Arkansas. Stupie Saripkin and Coburn Howell, the smallest men on the team, did fine work. Howell's playing at safety drew praise in every game. Chester Spencer and Gordon Hinton played ends and very few gains were made around them. Spencer is expected to develop into one of the fastest ends in this section of the country. Fred Owen and Ernest Proctor held down the places vacated by the stars Cooper and Hichardson and did it well. Max Greenfield. Robinson. Johnson, and Mitchell, did themselves credit at the positions of guards. Paul Bass was back at center and made a better record than the previous year. Alt in all the team had a very successful season under the direction of Coach Wallace and with the return of ten letter men. the prospects look even brighter than ever. Dorns Greenfield has been chosen captain and Cleland Gann, sub- captain for the next year's team. THE SQUAD The Record for the Season Earle 0 Wynne.
