Mr. John C. Clovis was the sponsor. By the time we became freshman new students from Core and Brave raised our membership to 41. The next year when we re-entered school our number was boosted by new members enrolled from Wadestown and Daybrook Junior High Schools. Our class was divided into two homerooms with Mr. Clovis, sponsor, and Mr. Bryant, co-sponsor. Our sophomore year was more successful than formerly in activities. We were honored by having David White and Charles Whitehill chosen president and vice-president of the Student Council. Last year Mrs. Bunner replaced Mr. Clovis as our sponsor. Our class sponsored the Junior Carnival and our princess. Mary Bell Dean, was chosen as Miss Clay-Battelle of 1950. We received our class rings in December and in April we presented our Junior Play. Goodnight Ladies.” Mrs. Lambert replaced Mrs. Bunner and helped us give the Junior and Senior Banquet on May 23. followed by a Prom later in the evening. This year Mrs. Marian Wilson, a former student of Clay-Battelle. replaced Mrs. Lambert. On October 10 we went to Photo-Crafters and had our pictures taken. We presented our Senior play. Lady-Be Good, on December 6 and 7. We will hold the memories of our Alma Mater dear to our hearts as we go forward to accomplish life's goal—SUCCESS! ten
