The seven honor students of the class of ‘61 pause just before entering the auditorium. Left to Right: Marion Young, Ronnie Oates, Joe Garrett, Barry Mullinax, Susan Davis, Linda Hill, Janice Hyder. First Graduating Class Receives Diplomas On June 1, 1961 the first graduating class of East Henderson High School marched to “Pomp and Circum- stance.” Parents, friends, and relatives of the 144 grad- vates packed the auditorium. Gold honor cords of Beta Club members sparkled among the grey robes. Seven students of high scholastic achievement occupied the honor positions usually reserved for Valedictorian and Salutatorian. Probably the honor block will become a tradition, as it more fairly represents the outstanding students of a class. Three honor students, Susan Davis, Ronnie Oates, and Joe Garrett delivered short speeches and after a word of farewell from Mr. Justus the di- plomas were awarded. East Henderson has delivered its first graduates to the world of business and higher learning. | Larry Bell’s face radiates pride and relief as Mr. Justus awards | his diploma.

Robert Morgan makes with a square beat. Beatniks! Beatniks were everywhere as Greenwich Village recruited all our Juniors. Our education was complete when they treated us to a beatnik assembly on Junior Class Day. Greenwich celebrities were pre- sented and “The Gruesome Two-some plus One”, the “Froggie Trio”, and the Lonesome Lovers moaned and thumped out a few tunes. The program was sponsored by Goldbrick and Goldbrick (makers of measle tape) and the movie company featuring mighty See-more. As the day wore on we recognized a few friends and acquaintances under the bizarre costumes. Even- tually all was back to normal, but the day when Beatniks disrupted East High has gone down in history, never to be forgotten. “Gruesome twosome plus one” go “a hunting”. Jan, Saundra, and Sheila share “the Lonesome Lover Blues’. Beatniks Make Froggie Fred, Griffin, Pryor and Bongo Nicholson play it cool with a latest hit.
