Adfory of Me Kfcw 0 151 so L Six years ago, on a typical fall morning in September, cp we boys and girls got our first real glimpse of the faculty Q, and students of Ceredo-Kenova High School, the insti- fo tution of learning where we would spend our next six f years. M-, A- x Man of the boys and girls, who were to make up the ...lp graduaflng class of '51, possessed many talents and capabilities. The first year was one of bewilderment and excite- ment. We were forever taking the wrong turn, finding 1 ourselves on the wrong floor, wandering into the wrong classroom, and arriving late for our classes. But soon we became familiar with the building, thus ceasing our wrong turns and many mistakes. After our struggle through the seventh, we went on to the eighth, which was very much the same as our first year, thus our hardest accomplishments toward our high school life had been overcome. In reaching the ninth grade, we had begun to take part in many activities. We had our own or- ganizations and were permitted to have class officers. Several members of our class had become musicians in the C-K Band. Also this year, Patty Bias was chosen from the freshman class as Car- nival Queen of 1947. Upon entrance to our sophomore year, we accomplished many things. We gave our first big play, -which proved to be a great success. Many of the boys were taking part in athletics and were showing unusual ability. Also this year we enjoyed many social events. Our junior year came as a great and exciting one. We attended our first big banquet which was the Thespian Banquet, and later a still larger one, the Junior-Senior Banquet, at which we had the Seniors of '5O as guests. This proved to be a great success and, from reports, everyone enjoyed it immensely. Also, during this year, Pat Bias and Phyllis Byer were chosen as cheerleaders. Then came the sixth and greatest year in the history of our class. Sixty-nine of us reached the goal toward which we had been working, to become a senior. As this was our last year, many were busy making plans for their future and as usual many were at an uncertainty. We of the Senior Class owe a vote of thanks to the officers who have so capably filled their posi- tions. They are Harvey Perdue, President, Vernon Smith, Vice-President, Hal Frazer, Secretary, Billie Pennington, Treasurer, Katherine Allen, Historian, and Shirley Bash, Chaplain. ln athletics this year we were very outstanding. Winning seven of ten games, we had one of the best football seasons we have had here for quite a few years. Also this year Richard Treadway made third team All-State. We enjoyed many social events this year, but of the many, the square dances were enjoyed most by everyone. To Mrs. Carey and Mr. Allen, our sponsors, we wish to express our gratitude for their co- operation and helpful planning which made these events so successful. This year we were the guests of honor at the Junior-Senior Banquet, which was held at the Hotel Frederick in Huntington. As the ceremonies of commencement draw to an end and each goes out to choose his vocation, may we always remember, Let us be seen by our deeds. 15

And so they go, these senior members of our cast, these seasoned players adept in the portrayal of any and every role our drama calls for. They step from the boards of our stage, into an even greater production - the cultured, intelligent citizenship of a great and important land. May this be our farewell, and a wish of Godspeed to them as they leave the campus of our high school for larger and more challenging fields.
