The funeral of Dolly Anne Pitts was held in Shellabarger’s chapel in Topeka at 2 o’clock Wednesday afternoon. The burial was in Memorial Park cemetery in Topeka. Rev. Payden of Willard gave the short message of condolence. Eight high school girls sang “No Night There,” and “Saved by Grace.” They were Ina Compton, Mary McAdams, Thelma Lambert, Lucille Griswold, Edna May Hartzell, Edna Dean, Williamette Navarre and Thelma Cless. The pallbearers were Ralph Pitts, Clyde Rogers, Marvin Billings, Streight Lauck, Frank Stone Jr., and Ernest Sage.

Dolly was the twin sister of Staley Pitts. They were fourteen years old October 20, 1928. Dolly was a Freshman in high school. Although she had been in high school only a short time everyone knew and liked her. Her attractive disposition drew friends to her as she was always jolly and very good natured. She had made a very fine record in her class work. Dolly will be very sadly missed by all the high school students and the faculty.
