Jr. Treasurer lean Bishop Sponsor 1 earney Moore Colors Blue and Gold Flower Yellow Rose Motto---------------------------- “Paddle Your Own Canoe History In 1949 pari of the ninth grade students were assembled in Clav-Battelle as seventh graders. The group then consisted of students from Blacksvillc. Bula. Pentress. and Democrat elementary schools. Mr. Learny Moore was our class sponsor. After getting accustomed to the rules of the school, our class started taking part in various activities and sports. Some of the boys played on the midget basketball team, the girls joined the Glee Club, and both boys and girls joined the band. In the eighth grade a few students dropped out of school. Our class officers for that year were: Bill Lemley. president: James Brummage. vice- president: and Dale Walker, secretary and treasurer. When we reached the goal of freshmen there were 54 students in our class, since then some have come from Core and Brave. This year we got to pi;k our candidates for King and Queen Autumn. The activities of the class members increased by the girls joining the F.H.A. and the boys joining F.F.A. During our three years we have gone on hikes, given class parties, went on skating parties, had Christmas exchanges, and other parties of the school.
