f5 .jshdfory On a bright sunny day in September of 1946, 32 of us prissy girls in fresh starched dresses and 39 mischievious boys in creased pants and white shirts got our first taste of campus life. Tears, laughter, fear, anxiety, this was a day of mixed emotions. Would we get a good teacher? Did we bring enough lunch money? Will mother go and leave me? Will I get in the same class with Mary? But this was only the beginning, the beginning of a story of life, problems, trials, and joys, a story of a journey that was only beginning and not to end with graduation. After getting accustomed to the idea of leav- ing our parents every morning, friends became an important part of this new life. They re- placed the daily companionship of'our sisters and brothe-rs. We began to grow up and be- come more of an individual, relying less on our parents. We began to make decisions, partici- pate in school activities, and even puppy love became an every-day' emotion. Living in a free, democratic country we were very fortunate in having six joyously happy and funfilled years of elementary school. Before long we were the seniors of gram- mar school glowing with the idealism of all the younger students. They obeyed our every com- mand. We were the marble champions, the leaders. Yes, but this was not to last for long. After a very impressive commencement which took months of practice and planning we were at the bottom of the ladder again, but one step further up. Seventh graders, we were the plebes of high school. Though we walked in the same halls with, ate in the same lunch room with, and were allowed to sit in the same auditorium with the mighty seniors, we were still far be- hind this lofty group who sat on the first row in assembly while we sat on the last. It is no wonder that with all the scramble and confusion of having five different classes with five different teachers for the first time and bells ringing every hour, on the hour, that we constantly plagued Mr. T. VV. Eatmonls of- fice with questions, problems, and requests for directions. Boy!! did the boom come when we were eighth graders and the furnace went to the dogs. XVe were the only known class of Beau- fort High School to have classes in the Bap- tist Churchg however, it only lasted for a few months and we were back to our nature-ly air- conditioned prefabs across the football field. Oh!! the walks were long and sandy or cold and windy and we could hardly wait until next year when the new wing would be completed and we would walk the halls as not S0-gl'f36I1- as-before freshmen. Next year did seem to hurry and now we were niaking real strides into young adulthood. This year we were allowed to choose two of our own subjects! VVe were really on the way up now and as all up-comers need guidance and understanding, we needed it too, and knew where to find it, the offices of Dr. W. E. Ful- mer, our principal for two years and Dr. L. C. McArthur, our superintendent. ANN McEACHERN TYKE MOCK Class Historians Freshman year passed quickly and we were sophomores. This year we began making plans for money-making projects and putting them into use. We were one of the first classes to start saving toward our senior year so far ahead. In all our projects and problems we were help- ed willingly and wisely by Mr. I. M. Handel, our new principal. junior year and more work! But what fun! junior Camival, magazine sales, beauty contests, dances, anything to make money for the all im- portant junior-Senior. For our theme we chose Young Loveugand though there were long nights of worry and doubt, study halls and afternoons spent in making roses for the ten foot heart, nothing yet had ever touched our junior-Senior. One day shortly after junior-Senior there was Class Day and suddenly we realized it - - - We were seniors!!! Only eighteen of the ori- ginal seventy-one were in our midst. One who had withdrawn at the end of the first grade returned last summer to finish school with his first grade class. Twelve years of waiting, work- ing, hoping,-what a joy, that first day in assem- bly when we the seniors of '58 sat on the first row! We got right into the swing of things with class projects, football games, and other school functions.'As seniors we were the guinea pigs for a new type of teaching, physics - by film. We were also the first to have in ad- dition to the usual privileges, a senior study hall. And as further proof of our seniority, we got our class rings! In addition to College En- trance Exams. we had to prepare for the last midterm exams, and for some of us the last exams period, we'd ever have to take in high school. After exams it seemed hardly any time at all before we were busy ordering invitations, measuring for caps and gowns and trying out for our play. Pride and Prejudicen a hilarious comedy was quite a success. Shortly after the play, we left on our trip to New York. Boy, talk about a party! wow!! Then came the long awaited junior-Senior when we would be the honored guests. School was almost over now and the whole school carried an air of excite- ment and anticipation. May Day came with an array and splash of color. The queen, and her attendants were perfectly beautiful. Now it is graduation time and we look back over our twelve years with some joy, some grief, some regret. It's been a long hard road but we've made it with the help and guidance of our faculty, who have been our teachers, ad- visors and our friends. To all of them, we give our sincerest thanks and hope to make them proud of us in the years to come. But this has only been the foundation of the beginning and as everything must have a strong foundation, we know this is what we have got- ten from Beaufort High. VVc came here scared and green but leave with some of the knowledge of life, a little wisdom, and a thousand memories we'll treasure 'til we die. Class Historians TYKE MOCK ANN MCEACHERN
