This is the story ot Americus I-Iigh as we know it and love it . . . the part ot Americus
I-Iigh which is more than a mere school . . . the part that Ioecomes a part ot us, the
triends we make, the joys we share, the disappointments we endure, the games we
play, the contests we enter, the books we study, the lessons we learn 'nside and outside
ot class. These gay important moments, these small intimate details ot school lite
that make the year such a memorable one tor you . . . these are the things we have
tried to catch tor you . . . the things that you will want to recapture with stirring
notes as they silently dritt into the ghostparade ot yesterdays, ot yesteryear.

MISS LOUISE REEVES
"To know her was to love her" is the verdict of all students who have
known Miss Louise Reeves: one who shows infinite patience in teaching
the things she sees so simply: one whose genius is unobtrusive, carefully
concealed by her modesty: one whose inner peace and calmness brings
tranquillity to all she contacts: one who for four years inspired mem-
bers of the Panther Staff with her originality, her perseverance, her
patience. To Miss Louise Reeves, our teacher, our friend, we respect-
fully dedicate the I947 Panther.

WILLIAM DAVID FROST
July 7, l929 October 5, I946
He said, "My child, do you yield?
Will you leave the flowers tor the crown?
Then into His hand went mine,
And into my heart came I-le:
And I walk in a light divine,
The path I had feared to see.

HISTUHY
On a cool September Georgia morning back in
l936, sixty or more children lbratsj stood agog at
their first classroom with a real blackboard, desks,
teacher, and riother children. This was the first of
class of '4-7's many weary mornings. l must add
for truthfulness's sake, there were many happy ones
too. Many of the children were at Furlow Gram-
mar School, but many of the tones who were to be-
come la part of the outstanding class started .their
schooling at Thalean, New Era, Shiloh, Chambliss,
and Andersonville. Numbers of incidents will linger
in our memory and even be told to our grandchil-
dren, among them: May Day, jumping out of win-
dows when we were supposed to be staying in
lwhat boy hasn't tried itl, and stealing lunches from
the cloak-room. At the end of five years the Furlow
children left Miss Sara and the faithful staff to enter
Junior High.
For the first time we changed classes and were
exempted from examinations lif we had studied hard
enoughl, Our principal, Mr. Comer, told us many
jokes and stories lnamely the Siamese twinsl. By
far the biggest day of the year was the Spartan and
Trojan literary and athletic competitions. Due to
conditions far beyond our control, the Trojans took
the cup all three years. The Junior High football
team in I94-I defeated Montezuma twice. A youth
center was provided by the Junior Welfare League,
first at the building contiguous to the school, later
at the gymnasium, and finally at the service men's
center over the Bank of Commerce. After serving
three years of hard labor we journeyed to Senior
High.
Our first year at Senior High the football team
took the state championship and in later seasons we
had better than average teams. We had oppor-
tunity to participate in various extra-curricula ac-
tivities, such as the Band, Beta Club, A.H.S. Journal,
Panther, Glee Clubs. At the beginning of our Juniof
year we were joined by students from the various
junior high schools of the county. The honor grad-
uates from these schools were Ruby Davis, Frances
Freeman, Mary Ann Burt, Vivian Oates, Jean Griffin,
John Hodges, and Betty Jean Popwell.
Our senior year was the year, our last and best
year. This year we felt our importance. We edited
the annual, led in many of the campus activities and
graduated. The Alpha Mu Literary Club was organ-
ized under the sponsorship of Miss Walton, Miss
Reeves, and Miss Glover. Lamar Dixon was the
Senior Class President. Jim Dudley and Lois Mathis
were elected Mr. and Miss A.H.S. Our Junior and
Senior Prom will long linger in our memories. Grad-
uation-well who could forget high school gradua-
tion?
PHIIIPHEEY
Well, well, here it is, I967, just twenty years since the famous
class of '47 left dear old classmates, I am faring forth on a
nation-wide tour.
I felt a definite need to see the Alma Mater to recall the
pranls of the bygone days. As I entered the physics lab
where the bullshooters held their daily session, I beheld none
other than Gus Johnson, now head of the Physics Department
since the retirement of Professor Kinney. Our discussion was
interrupted by shots issuing from the guns of the notorious
outlaws, Hodges Hoodlums, led by Bob and John Fox Hodges,
who had been cornered by Dan Hiclrs, the Sumter County
sheriff.
On the tenthltrial the car, which I had purchased from
Professor Kinney chugged off down the road to Leesburg. At
the edge of the city limits I halted to lend assistance to the
local cat-catcher, Lottie Holley, who with the aid of Sidney
Peach, dog-catcher, was trying to lasso Emory Pilcher's dog,
Richard. I considered stopping at the Leesburg Hotel for
the night. My bags were carried in by the only efficient
bell-hop, Doris Bryant.
In Albany next morning I tool: the plane for Atlanta. Ann
Evans, Missionary to that vice-ridden city, saw me off and
Lad'ye Fleeman, airline hostess, served me coffee during the
flight.
I saw advertisements that Dingling Brothers Circus was at
Grant Parlr. I went out to view the exhibitions. The first
person to cross my path was the famous elephant trainer.
Jim "Dumbo" Watson. He carried me by to see the Fat
Lady, Jean Courtney, and the Daring Young Lady on the
Flying Trapeze, Ramona Robinson. On my way to the
Journal Office where I intended to call on Gene Harvey, who
uses all his talents drawing the crossword puzzles, I met
Janette Dupree, famous authoress of "Forever Emerald." I
loitered by the Peachtree Billiard Academy and was frightened
out of a 'year's growth when the police siren blared in my
ears. I Ioolred up to see Jim McArthur's smiling countenance
at the wheel of the Blaclr Maria inquiring from Drew Steven-
son, janitor of the above mentioned establishment, the reason
for the call.
My next stop was Washington to visit ory Pilcher, Sec-
retary of Treasury. I stopped on Pennsylva ,Avenue to get
a shoe shine from Dorothy Bryan who at th 'V e was put-
ting the finishing touches on the shoes of La S Dixon the
exalted janitor for President Moosehead Maul: E resident of
Local Brewers Union 7l-CIOI. A billboard ati nced a
matinee featuring the great 20th century Flop act 'A Martha
Slappey. Passing the Octagon Bldg., I saw Silas Bushiilead of
the Army Air Force Model Airplane Department anagiudora
Averett, first woman ambassador to Lower Slobbovi James
Short, international President of the Beta Club, was in bwn
to plan a joint convention with F.H.A. which is led by if V ie
Ruth Childree and her efficient power behind the thr I I
Virginia Norris.
En route to New Yorlr, I stopped by Vassar to see the dean,
Ballard Daniel, B.S., M.A., Ph.D., I.O.U., D.D.T., P.U. My first
stop in New York was the Stork Club where I was greeted by
the charming hat check girl, Faye Turner. I was delightfully
entertained by Glenn Alexander, his harmonic. and orchestra
featuring the noted star of stage, screen and radio, Lynne
"The Body" Durham. Barbara Burton, club hostess, gave me
a table at Club 27 where I heard Ben Shorter's latest dis-
covery, Mary Ann Schmidt, boogie woogie pianist. ln
walked Charlie Crisp, spendthrift play boy, who invited me
to his home. We were met at the door by the butler, James
Young, who had been reduced to dire financial straits because
of the settlements the courts had given his divorced wives.
Barbara Methvin and Betty Jean Popwell. Langdon Cheves
Sheffield, Charlie's bartender and pool instructor, served us
coclrtails. That evening we attended a Broadway play by
the eminent playwright, Janie Frazier, starring Lawrence Pen-
nington as the great lover, the review of which I had read
in Sheppard's Sentinel, edited by Davis Sheppard. We had
to loolr in at the Sin Din, Pat Crumpton's Brooklyn Night
Club. Madison Square Garden was featuring the Heavyweight
World Champion, Joe Barnes, and his challenger, "Muscles"
Poupard. Bobby Collins, miler and successor to Grunder
Hoegg, was betting heavily on Muscles.
I met the medical genius, Dorman Austin, specialist in
brain diseases, who was treating Sara Sellars, victim of
Irleptomania. lShe had stolen the radio from Radio City.l
At the Metropolitan Opera I met Roy Johnson and the movie
actors, Bill Hodges, successor to Sunset Carson, and Jimmy
Mabry, the second Wallace Beery.
At Macy's I K, ght a tie styled by Margaret Kinney. I
went to La G dia field to see an air show featuring the
dare devil n paratrooper, Peggy Ann Hines. Anxiously
watching thgshow was Lois "Digger" O'Mathis, undertalreress
and Sara Wtilson, America's best dressed woman of '67. She
aclrnowlc 'es her success is due to the use of Cobalt cos-
metics mainufactured by Jean Griffin and to her dress design-
er, Lillian Revell. A cab driver, Mary Ann Burt, carried me
up Wall Street where I saw the soap tycoon, William O'Hara,
formulator of B. O.'s odorless limburger soap for babies
and cattle. Lawrence Wolfe, railroad magnate, owner of
the East Bay Limited which is pushed from Parrott to Preston,
showed me to the elaborate ofhces of Thomas Moore, Na-
tional Manager of the Small Sun Food Stores. Joyce Hiclrs,
vaudeville queen whom I saw at a show that night, told me
she owed her fame to Lanier Success Course originated by
Martha "Grip" Lanier.
Leaving the plane in Chicago, I was startled by m-y old
friend recruiting patient for the Veterinary Hospital, Eliza
Chappel, a nurse. Vivian Oates, inventor of "Oates Ointment,"
and Julia Goodin, manufacturer of "Goodin's Girdle," were
standing nearby. At the University of Chicago I met Dr.
Frances McEarchern, director of Uranium 204. Visiting her
was Frances Freeman, head of the art department of Cactus
College. Charles Brown, malrer of the Buzz Brown Motor
Scooters, was on a business trip from Detroit to consult with
Clyde Bridges, noted automobile designer.
In Omaha, Nebraslra, I saw our Panther artist, Marilyn
Witt, worlcing for Rice Krispies as head of advertising art
department. During the trip to Los Angeles the hostess
pointed out the world's largest rabbit farm owned by Della
Mae McGlamry. I stopped at a barber shop in L. A. and
was terrified to find my barber was my friend-I hoped-
Charles Henderson. The shop's manicurist was Doris Morris,
who told me Ruby Davis was running a beauty shop next
door. She said they often had visits from the golden-haired
salesgirl for Blonde Rinse, Jennie Coptsias. On my sight
seeing tour I saw the huge frog farm owned by Mildred
Daniel, the famous girl cow-puncher, May O'Hara, and
Sidney Tatum, Joclre'y on California race traclr. When I
commented on the beauty of his suit, he gave the credit to
Mora Mae Rigsby's Laundry.
The glamour city, Hollywood, contained many classmates
who had made good and bad in movietown. Evelyn Harbuclr,
successor to Bette Davis, told me to be sure to see Lonnie
Downs, HolIywood's only non-paid camerman, and Bill Ander-
son, aeronautical adviser to Universal Pictures and Hodges
Whitaker, who was malring a short of his last trip to the
South Pole. Leon Kidd, grower of roses for the Rose Bowl,
was out of town.
'Twas time to get a glimpse of the Atlantic and I chose
Daytona Beach, but I left hurriedly when I learned Betty
Tye was the only life guard. I did meet Jim Dudley and
Dick Kinnebrew, governors of Georgia. Jim told me he had
won with the white supremacy platform and Diclr won by
stuffing ballot boxes. "Crocodile Joe" Littlefield acted as
guide on my tour of the Everglades. I passed through Cairo
to see Margie Smith, co-owner of Cairo Syrup, Inc.
Charlie Glover, mayor of the "fair city," stopped me as I
passed through Cordele. In Leslie I chatted with Harris
Dalton, athletic director of Union High.
As I approached Americus my car was nearly wreclred by
a youngster driving a Bert Lewis Driving Course car. On
College Street l was startled by a loud scream which came
from Jeane Dulce practicing her hog calling. I called on
Milre Saliba, war hero co-pilot on "Woodpeclrer's Haven."
Lutrelle Harrell, poet laureate of Sumter County, crossed the
street in front of me.
I tried to divide my automobile business. Eugenia Lane,
mechanic at James Body and Fender Shop, straightened a
dent in the front fender. Bought some gas from Alice West
at Turpin's and some oil from John Chambers, owner of a
super station on the east banlcs of Mucltalee. All this at-
tention so stunned "Kin" that it gave a few convulsive shalres
and followed the example of the "wonderful one horse shay."
Here's wishing the best of everything to the best class of
all, class of '47. A
