I^icj WL eeU Shirley Reavis Capturing the honor for this month’s Campus Big Wheel Is Shirley Reavis from Winston-Salem. The popular and attractive 20-year-old blonde was graduated from John W. Hanes High School in Winston-Salem, with an admirable list of honors and activities to her credit. In the field of athletics, Shirley’s abilities knew no bounds, as evidenced by her participation in all the sports offered at Hanes High School. She played basketball, soccer, and tennis for four years in addtion to two years of softball. Eager to further represent her school, Shirley was elected cheerleader, serving in the capacity of chief cheerleader in her senior year. It seemed no more than the natural course of events when Shirley was named recipient of the state award presented by the Girl’s Athletic Association in 1953. Nor is it surprising to learn that she was elected “most athletic” in the naming of high school superlatives. Shirley was a member of the High School Band each of her four years in high school, playing the clarinet. She held mem bership, also, in the Latin Club and the Y-Teen Club. Since coming to Gardner-Webb in 1953, Shii'ley’s list of ac complishments has continued to grow. Last year, she was a football sponsor, a member of the Band, the Pilot staff, and the May Court. Following the pattern of her high school days, Shirley is this year acting efficiently as chief of the cheerleaders. Naturally, Shirley’s favorite subject is sports, with tennis taking first place. Shirley says that she likes flying in air planes, band music, and Carolina. The only things she really dislikes are liver mush, hillbilly music, and standing in line in the cafeteria. Being a business major, Shirley feels that secretarial work is probably her line. Whatever it may be, the personality of Shirley Reavis as displayed on our campus will make for suc cess in any field. Ronald Burns The wheel is spinning, spinning, spinning, and finally comes to a stop pointing to Ronald (better known as “Country”) Burns, a sophomore who hails from Spartanburg, S. C. In case there is anyone on the campus who doesn't know Ronald, he is 5 feet 10 inches tall, has brown curly hair and weighs 180 pounds. When he isn’t in class or on the football field, he can usually be found in the college book store where he works. Ronald's pleasant smile and cheiTy hello are welcomed by everyone. Ronald attended Cowpens High School where he was out standing in football for three years. He was captain of the team his senior year. He also played basketball for one year. He belonged to the Future Farmers of America Club, the Block C Monogram Club and was a schoolbus driver. Last year as a freshman Ronald played first string right tackle for the “Bulldogs” and as a result of receiving a letter for football was initiated into the Monogram Club. This year a! gram Club ai football team Cleveland Tin a sophomore Ronald is president of the Mono- d is doing a great job as co-captain of the Already he has been featured twice by The Bs as Gardner-Webb player of the week. It seems only natural that Ronald's favorite sport should be football and that his ambition is to be a coach. His plans for the future include attending either Wofford or Western Carolina to complete his college education. Page 6
