As we sit in this beautiful moonlit garden, with the lovely fragrance of roses filling the air, ilet us gaze
into the future and try to visualize the '55 seniom as they will be ten years from now, Silence! Fix your
eyes upon the moon as we joumey into the future,
It is 1965, Alto has been the county seat of Cherokee County for nine years now, Since the discovery
of gold on Mr, Boone's vast ranch, it has become a fast-developing city with population of 150, 000. And
what does this sign say? Of course, we should have known, Where else would we find the '55 seniors but
in "Debtor's Court, " It seems that the seniors never paid back the Sl, 99 that they borrowed from Mr, Draw-
horn way back in gay ole '55, He has summoned the entire group to court in order to collect the fortune at
stake, The courtroom quietens as the judge raps for order, As the case begins, a distinguished-looking '
gentleman rushes in and sits down beside me, At a second glance, I realize that it is R, L, Cherry, late
as usual, Quickly we become engaged in conversation, It seems that he has become the friendly under-
taker operating the very successful "Cheery Cherry Funeral Home, " He assures us that he would be the last
one to let his previous classmates down while they are in Debtor's Court, Mr, Cherry is accompanied by
his dear wife whom most of us will remember as Phoebe Quarles, Phoebe is the supervisor of nurses in the
Nan Travis Hospital, She helps R, L, 's business along by sending her victims to him, There is Earl Haney,
He is now the manager of a new drive-in theatre in Alto called the "Passion Pit, " Seeing Earl reminds us
of the recent movie showing at the "Passion Pit, " It stars that sensational new star, Vaughn "Hot Lips Arn-
old' in an exciting love story titled, "Young Man With a Horn, " Vaughn will be remembered as the talented
trumpeter who gave such an outstanding performance in the 1955 senior play, "Desperate Ambrose, " Glanc-
ing around the courtroom, I see none other than that famous typist, Alvaleane White, who holds the world
speed record in typing with 200 words per minute while still in high school, She acquired this skill under
the able direction of Professor Gary Burke, Six-foot two, eyes of blue! That is Olan Black who is now a
professional basketball player appearing with- that great team, the Harlem Globe Trotters, We hear a clat-
ter disturbing the peacefulness of the courtroom, Rushing to the window, we see a trailer house followed
by two, four, six, eight, kids on the outside and no telling how many more inside, It looks as if Vema Mae
and the children are still following "Red" around from army camp to army camp, As things quieten down I
notice Mr, and Mrs, George Covington, George is the famous private detective now working on the case of
"Who's got the missing part to the water fountain, " His wife, the former Betty Moses, is noted for her mag-
nificent development of the "Needle less Lolly-pop Pine" while working at Anderson's Nursery, Over in the
corner I spot someone in a wheel chair with bandages from head to foot. It is that famous stock car racer,
Bobby Burrows, After surviving the dangers of the Indianapolis Speedways for the past seven years, he had a
small argument with his wife, Billie Jean, and ended up in this condition, Billie Jean is better known as the
'Atomic Darling, " woman wrestling champion of the world, There is Larry Davis accompanied by the little
men in the white jackets, Poor Larry became a little bit unbalanced when his head got caught in a
cement mixer, It didn't hurt his head but it surely did ruin that cement mixer, which, incidentally,
was his only source of income, Look! Over there is Liberace and his charming 23rd wife, Bobbie
Jean, She will be remembered as one of the winners of the junior class talent show, Now Bobbie
Jean and Liberace are very happy playing duets on the piano, We hear a yell, "Duck and Cover"
followed by an explosion outside the courtroom, Oh, it is just that famous scientist, Joseph Tullis, experi-
menting with a miniature "Z" Bomb, And there is that gorgeous model, Mildred Jones, who was crowned
'Miss America of 1965. " All of the men should get a thrill out of this, Who is that distinguished-looking
man in the uniform? Why it is Ford Johnson, After nine years in the army he is a Pfc, In spite of this he
has become an accomplished hand at peeling potatoes, Looking to my right, I see Norma Coleman who is
now head cheerleader at West Point, That must be quite an honor, Carroll McGaughey enters the court-
room with an armload of blueprints, It seems that Carroll was summoned to Court from his job of cons-
tructing a super highway between the thriving cities of Alto and Rusk, Immediately after finishing his civil
engineering course at A 8s M--Carroll was asked to re-direct the flow of Niagara Falls, and to supervise re-
pairs on the Angelina River Bridge, All the girls in the crowd swoon as Summers Hassell enteres the court-
room, Summers is the famous crooner who has taken Eddie Fisher's place ill popularity, And, there is the
president of Baylor University, Mr, Bobby Carl Boyd, His wife, Edna Myrl is working at '1The Silver Slip-
per, " a nightclub in Las Vegas, while waiting for their divorce to become legal, As I look about me, I
see Miss Watters, After many years of teaching English in Alto High School she has discovered her true love,
Now she is teaching mathematics in Rusk High School, Sitting next to Miss Watters is Mr, Cummings, Mr,
Cummings has become quite famous since he crossed a pig with a chicken and developed a pigkin, Amid
the confusion, the judge cannot decide what to fine each one so he allows the ex-seniors to take up a collec-
tion, It looks as if the '55 seniors will have paid their debts at last,
The spell has ended, the nightmare is over and we are once again in the present, But I, on behalf of
the jtmiors of 1955, would like to say this, "We expect you seniors to live up to our predictions. Only please
pay Mr, Drawhom that 51, 99 so that I won't have to go through this again, "
lad 70dlaad7
We, the Senior Class of Alto High
Class of Nineteen Hundred Fifty-five,
Being weak-minded and rather dry,
Declare this their last will and testament.
To the 'Alto Brat Academy' teachers
We leave the hopes of finding other treasures,
May their patience and understanding last through the years,
So they might give the 'up and coming ones' our same fears.
The loud mouth of the Senior class
Has finally met his match,
Ford is forced to will to Willard
His ability to get in the 'Booby Hatch. "
Sweater girls are necessary everywhere
Especially when looking for a man,
Edna Myrl has finally consented to reveal her secret
To Virginia and Rosie Ann,
Mighty Mite Joseph wills to "Little Rice"
His pleasing personality and manners so nice
His towering height and perfect build,
And his number 12 shoe that is perfectly filled.
The boys will miss around A,H,S,
Billie Jean Selman's face,
She is proud to give the honorable
Bonnie and Nancy her place,
Old A,H, S, 's Howard Keel
Is Bobby Glenn Burrows, the big wheel,
But jmt think next year who you'll see in his place,
None other than that handsome James Earl Wallace's fa
The dramatic ability of Olan Black
He leaves to Billy Lee,
In hopes that next yearis Senior play
A success may also be,
The Junior Class' sweetest treasure
Alvaleane presents with greatest pleasure
Her ability to keep all the boys away,
Now Martha, you must heed what she might say,
The famous athletic record of Bobby "Bully" Boyd
ls bequeathed to the one and only Cary Wayne.
It is understood that it is to be bettered
Or, at least kept the same,
CB,
We all know how Dan would like to be popular with the girls,
He would run and jump at their every whim,
Let us all offer congratulations to the lucky boy 'cause
Summers has asked that his title "Dream Boy of A, H,S,' be left to him,
Of all the sweet dreams in study hall
Earl Haney's really top them all,
His ability to snore and nod his head
Is left to Leonard and Billy Fred,
The Daniel Webster of Alto High
Is none other than Larry Davis.
His dictionary of correct words he leaves to Don Jones,
Maybe he can add some more words after Larry is gone.
R, L, leaves to Jimmy Lavender
His unfinished bottle of wine,
For since he started going with girls,
Who has time to dine.
13
What is Raymond's favorite pasdmez
Could it be chewing gum?
Then take a look under Vaughn Henry's geometry desk
You'll find a plenty and then some,
Because she is always hurrying,
Joy Beth is usually unnerved,
To her Verna Mae leaves some calm manners.
This way everyone can get served,
Have you ever heard Ally Oop blow his nose?
Well, Carroll McGaughey is just as bad,
To Jerry Jean he leaves this asset,
With hopes that he doesn 't drive everyone mad.
To Jean Ann and Cynthia
Betty and Phoebe leave their dearest treasures,
The STINGER, and the "Jacket's Buzz, "
In hopes that they will bring them many pleasures,
His alluring ways with seventh grade girls
George now leaves to Hugh K, May,
We know you're handsome and all that, Hugh Kenneth,
My goodness, what will people say?
Billie Ann and Lucille
Are presented by Mildred Ann
A gleaming set of her pearly, white teeth
Now maybe they can catch a man,
Her ability to be ,general "Flunky"
And do fifty things at one time
Is bequeathed to Sara Nell and Betty Jo by Bobbie Jean.
Who knows, they may get along fine,
Miss Roberson and Mr. Thomas we know
Just hate to part
With the Junior Class they have now,
May it ever remain in their hearts.
The Senior Class leaves with great regret
The sweetest treasures ever found yet,
Miss Watters and Mr, Cummings you guessed it too,
We hate to give, them up to you,
Since Dorthy is lacking in one trait
With which Norma Lue is great
She says she'll leave with her
Her ability to keep the boys in a stir.
Since Mr, Drawhorn has been the happy recipient
Of all our debts unpaid
We gladly issue him a 51,000 check
If he can collect it in the next raid,
To get his wavy hair back
They have already left him brushes and wigs
So, our advice, Mr. Boone is
Try some of that stuff that makes the hair rise
You know, that T, C, special that you drink in great big swrgs
Of all the years we have been in school
The last has been the best
We are wondering now about the next year
Are you going to pass the test?
We think you will make good Seniors
You won't have to worry and fret,
Your school year will always be pleasant

THE PERFECT MAN
A form not so low, nor yet so very high,
A face that shows the blush, a flashing eye.
A tongue that never fears the truth to speak,
A heart that beats with pity for the weak, -
Strong arms that lift the heavy weight of sorrow,
Deeds that are done today, and not tomorrowg
I.n youth, the star of home's sweet morning sky,
In manhood, king, when those he loves draws nighg
Wife, child and servant bow to his behest, --
Not that they must, but that his way is bestg
In age, a silver treasury of lore,
Where all may come and freely share his storeg
Upward, on bended knee, he daily looks,
And draws his wisdom from the book of books.
No base deceit he bids within his heart. --
To do the right thing is his only art,
Not given to vain surmising or suspicion,
But glad to trust a friend without condition,
Grateful for kindness, never envious,
Frank in his speech, and yet not garrulousg
In honor sure, in friendship firm and sweet,
Pouring his sorrows at your willing feet,
Or all his joys unfolding to your eyes,
Because he knows in them your gladness lies.
Ready to give advice, nor angry when
You take the same old beaten path again,
No pendulum betwixt the good and ill,
But standing firmly, duty to fulfill,
Willing to pardon ere the word is said,
Just to the living, reverent to the dead,
