1,8CLASS PROPHECY
Being gifted that way
Into the future I can see
So I111 tell you today
Of the things that are to be..
Lemuel Coley and Maribeth Thomas are the folk
of the age
As dramatic actors on the New York Stage.
Thomas Chappell a ferry boat will row
Martha Davis will learn to cook and sew.
This may be true and it may be a rumor
That Cooper Brown will edit "College Humor".
No hospital in Alex City could run a single
day
If it weren’t for the nurses Hazel Adamson
and Gussie Mae.
In Kellyton you’ll learn the mayor's name
It's Charles Thomas of A. C. H. S. fame.
Myrtle Wesson and Eloise Hix
Are teaching school out in the sticks.
Charles Dean to our relief
We see a capable fire-chief
Her fortune has never been told for fear it
would alarm her
But Virginia Mitchell will surely wed a far-
mer.
Philip Adams talents now a side show adorn
You can hear his "Buy your ticketsi" from nite
till morn.
Mable Hornsby is a composer; Madeline Davis
is on the stage;
As a hot song and dance girl Leola Bowers is
all the rage.
C. M. Maxwell is an ice man and it knocked him
off his perch
When he learned Earl Towns had quit work and
joined the church.
Mary Jo Dean by her charn got a husband to
feed her
And now she’s.known as a social leader.
19Jimmy Carlisle with his "Service with a Smile"
Decided to get busy and earn his living for a
while.
Frances Dean and Sara Brown will surely hold
their sway
In a famous ladies journal setting fashions
for the day.
Carrie Alice Maxwell has the easiest lot
I see her sailing her private yatch.
Since the return of short skirts they’re valued
highly
The garters made by Frances Riley.
Clara Jean Liles shall be a lady of means
And furnish inspiration for Bevelle’s basket-
ball teams.
Hark to the sound like thunder’s rumble
You can hear Jack Dean and Elmer Hassett grumble.
Evelyn Clark who loves Jack still
Is now residing in Flint Hill.
At last I’ve been able to find Doris Ham
She’s working in a factory bottling straw-
berry jam.
Ira Gunn Is a farmer and he thought 'twould do
no harm
So he took Inez Waites and put her on the farm.
Edith Lindsey whom our youth doth scorn
■Shall marry an ambassador English born.
Hazel Rich, with her hair all a-curl
Has never married and Is still a "Rich" girl.
Then there’s the presidential candidate of the
"No-Not" Party—•
That A-l know-nothing, Billy Hardy.
Many a child for his sin atones
By studying Math under Fatty Jones.
Willis Fuller from the bottom has steadily
risen
’Till now he’s the ward of Kilby Prison.
Sara Knight, Ethel Eason and Marie Waldrop-
why 'tis a shame
20I cannot see their future, for each has chang-
ed her name.
Addle Mae Radney will be a school teacher1s
wife
And so spend her time grading papers all her
life.
Clarence Phillips is a preacher, Oscar Cohen
owns a store
Lewis Harris runs a butcher shop and Vonceil
Turner scrubs the floor.
Minnie Lou Anthony and Linda Cromer to the best
of knowledge
Are studying hard on their Ph. D. at college.
In the intervening years since leaving our
walls
Far has gone the fame of Julian Rawls.
As a secretary to a lawyer I see Sarah Yates
She takes all his letters and writes his de-
bates.
Lessie Lee Graves has risen pretty high
Shefs gone to Montgomery and learned to fly.
On the radio Jack Sellers speaks for chewing
gum
If you send five wrappers he111 send you some.
Forrest Meigs shall be happy It seems
Managing Mary and football teams.
Mary Ellen Welch and Geneva McAlister have a
chain of beauty shops
They1re up to the minute and considered "the
tops"•
Floyd Mann more famous than Hoover
Shall make a fortune with freckle remover.
"Fess" Coley our teacher so dear
Has never resigned and is still teaching here.
Class Prophet
21SENIOR CLASS HISTORY
' Twas only twelve short years ago.
In 1926, if you would know.
Our class embarked on its career
A band of eager, restless youth,
Who'd never cut a wisdom tooth
Eut recognized as gospel truth
The ancient pedagogic creed
That learning's road is rough, indeed.
’Twould take too long for me to tell
The strange adventures that befell
Our gallant class ere we attained
The lofty heights that now we've gained.
The faculty were most forbearing
Although they must have found us wearing
They never acted autocratic
But always wondrous diplomatic.
Though treating us with hopeful kindness
They never to a fault showed blindness.
Our social life was very vital
And worth a place in this recital;
Our dances each a great event.
To which the school's elite all went.
Our Senior play showed gifts surprising
And talent quite beyond surmising;
Our banquet, food and fancy blended.
By far the best the town's attended.
When business troubles caused distress
Our president, with great finesse.
Just called an extra meeting. Then
He told us what to do and when.
And how each question to decide.
To—Oscar Cohen—we point with pride.
22We’re cultured, really most polite.
And very, very erudite.
And, with our higher education.
Acquired broad-minded toleration.
Our store of knowledge is so great
We fear lest we confuse it.
But when we take our place in life
We’ll have a chance to use it.
We have, although a trifle checkered,
A most extraordinary record.
Now comes the longed-for gala day;
The auditorium, in array.
Is crowded with spectators fair
Who all their festal garments wear.
And on the platform, side by side.
Behold our class, aglow with pride.
Where they sojourned a little space.
And hoping life will be as kind
As these twelve years they've left behind.
Oh, class of 1938,
Look downward from your starry vision.
Assure me you do not infer
These lines were spoken in derision.
I know that you are wise and good.
Abhorring falsehood, sloth, and pride.
That wisdom is your daily food.
And justice ever is your guide.
Offer all of these, your best, to the world.
And the world will salute you with banners unfurled

35FOOTBALL 1937
September 1. The football team was greeted by a new
coach, Kamp Lyon, from the University of Alabama.
He threw himself wholeheartedly into the game, and
made a good team from small, inexperienced boys.
October 1. Finally came our first game under the
new lights on Pearson Field. The boys took Wad-
ley to ride — 38 to 0.
October 8. The next team to tackle the Wild-
cats was Lanett,a bigger,more experienced
team. The Alex City boys put on a fine
display of all-around playing, tieing
the Lanett team 6 to 6.
October 15. The Wildcat’s first
taste of defeat was handed them by
Fhenix City. After a hard fight
the Alex City team lost by a
count of 19 to 6.
October 28. The boys traveled
up to Linevilie, where they
were overcome by the Aggies
with a 13 to 9 score.
October 29. One of the
stronger teams in the
state came to invade
Alex City, but were
outplayed and out-
smarted in every
phase of the
game. Selma lost
by a 19 to 12
38FOOTBALL 1937
November 5. Dadeville,our 15 year rival in the great
and most "looked-forward-to" gridiron classic of the
season, was next to fall before the maddened, on-
rushing Alex City Wildcats. Score, Alex City 18,
Dadeville 0.
November 12.Tallassee came to Alex City and af
ter a hard game lost to the Wildcats 7 to 0.
November 19. In freezing weather,through a
first quarter break.,the Wildcats were de-
feated by Bessemer, 6 to 0.
J .Williams.
Deserving high recognition on
this page are the managers,
Karris and Fuller,the band,
who at all times forwarded
the team, and Percy Year-
gan, who because of love
of the game,did big
things in helping
Coach to have a
good team.
Also we thank the
Officials and
Cheer Leaders
for their
excellent
work.
November 24-. Again Alex City took to
the road,this time going to 0pp. Af-
ter a hard fight the Bobcats emerg-
ed with a 19 to 0 victory,closing
the season for both the teams.
