Last Will and Testament We, the Class of 1944, ot Churchland High School, being in our right minds and sound senses, in spite of the burdens imposed upon us, do make this our last will and testament. .After our just debts are paid, we give and bequeath certain talents and charac- teristics in form and manner as follows: I ' l ' EM One — To the whole school we leave our good times, our capacity for fun, our friendship and our loyalty. These have been among the richest legacies Churchland has bestowed upon us. We, in turn, bestow them upon you. 1 1 ' EM Two — To the Junior Class — We leave the passionate and unquenchable flame for English literature that springs eternal in our breasts. We also leave to them, our wit, our superb knack for keeping in with the teachers, our charming manners, and our good looks, with the sincere hope that the Juniors may therefore be better prepared to take their places on our vacated thrones. Item ' Fhree — T o the Sophomore and Freshman Classes — W’e leave the comforting knowledge that they will grow up, too, some day. Item Four — To Flwood Myers — Roland Houghton leaves his ears, and believe us, he is glad to get rid of them ! I tem Five — To Jean (freen — Dot Skutt leaves her quiet dignity. Item Six — Eddie Goldman leaves his comb — with great reluctance — to O. J. Pennell. I ' l’EM Seven — To Elmo Burks — Caswell leaves Bobbie Stare period. Item Fight — To Johnny Houghton — Thomas Lane bequeaths his industriousness and his ability to get things done on time. Item Nine — With much pleasure, Mary Edna Love leaves to Mary Downey Lawrence her unawareness of boys in general. I l EM 1 ' en — T o Juddie Deans — Hugh Carpenter leaves his height and his strict rule of no talking in class. ■ Item Fi.even — To Mrs. Jones — We leave our undying gratitude for her wise guidance and untiring effort which have made this .Annual possible. Subscribeilj sealed, published and declared by the Senior Class of 1944, as our last will and testament, in the presence of us who have hereunto subscribed our names as witnesses this 5th day of June, at the Village of Churchland, County of Norfolk and State of Virginia.
