♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ 1954 CLASS HISTORY 1955 Like a prisoner awaiting his parole, we live in an air of expectancy. We are expect- ing so many things: our final banquet, our Senior Play, our final exair., class night, and most of all, graduation with diplomas. Be- fore we get into the hurried and confussed present, however—relax and relive with me the past years we have attended Alamo High. First in high school was our Freshman year. We were all filled with the zeal and energy that comes with the beginning of each new term. After 9ome weeks, the class offi- cers were elected, and believe me, they were all femimne. They were as follows: Presi- dent, Carolyn Gaba; Vice President, Norma Williams: Treasurer. Lucy Hopper: Report- er, Patsy Acor; Secretary, Patsy Phillips. We were also represented in other activities. They were: basketball, library work, glee club, football paper staff and baseball. After making our first step in High School, it was not long until time to start the second. Our sophomore year was entered with the same zeal and enthusiasm as the freshman year had been. The officers elected were: President, Wayne Parlow; Vice-President, Jack Terry; Secretary-Treasurer, Carolyn Gaba: Reporter, Daisy Williams. Activities in addition to last year: office worker, home room officer, and lunch room worker. Thus ended the second step in our High School Training. Our junior year was one with two major occurrances; Namely, the buying of class rings and the junior-senior banquet. The ban- quet was financed by selling furniture polish and magazines. Our banquet program was based on the theme “The Circus,” or you might say, “Under the Big Top.” It was real- ly enjoyed by all. It was held at the New Southern Hotel in Jackson. The officers for our junior year were: Pre- sident, Larry Edwards; Vice-President, Jere Rains; Secretary, Carolyn Gaba; Treasurer, Patsy Phillips; Reporter, Patsy Acor. This year the junior class was represented by Shelby Webb at Girls’ State, and by Freed Jones at Boys' State. This completed our third step, the junior year. At last, we are seniors! We have waited a long time to earn this grade. At first, we think we will have as easy time. After a few months though, we begin to realize that this is not the case. We learned that with rank came responsibility. Senior officers are: President, Stanley Raines; Vice-President, Larry Edwards; Treasurer, Patsy Phillips; Secretary, Peggy Ballentine; Reporter, Lucy Hopper; Student Council Representatives, Wayne Parlow and Nonna Williams. D. E. Club Officers were: President, Freed Jones; Vice-President, Stanley Raines; Secre- tary, Elizabeth Thomas; Treasurer, Patsy Phillips; Reporter, Bobby Slayton; Historian, Mary Ann Arnold. We, of the 1954-55 Senior class are busy ending the last half of the school. We are planning on another banquet, which will be more enjoyable this year. The reason? We don’t have to sponsor it. There are still other things that will have to be done before we receive our final “goodbye”, but it won’t be as long as it has been! We are now up to the present. Twelve years have been spent in preparation for future life. A few formalities and we will be on our own. They have been rich, these years in school, rich in resources and opportunity. 1 hope that each of us may have gotten enough to grow, and continue to grow, in wis- dom, in stature, and favor with God and with Man.
