HISTUHY
At this time it is very htting that the senior
class of 1951 record the events preceding and
including this closing year. 1 shall now under-
take to record them briefly.
ln 1947, sixty-five girls and boys entered high
school. We were under the guidance of Mrs.
Louise Winstead and Mr. Fussell. lean Batts
was president in Mr. 1-7ussell's home room and
Ernest Finch was president in Mrs. Winstead's
room. We worked hard that year. Some passed
and some didn't.
ln our sophomore year we were under the
guidance of Mr. Fussell. Linwood Braswell was
our president.
We were placed under the guidance of Mr.
Fussell again in our junior year. Ellen Britt was
elected our class president. Boyl we had fun
that year-selecting class rings, ioining the Beta
Club, publishing the "Bear Hi lozrrrfzalf' and
greatest of all, having the lunior-Senior Ban-
quet and prom.
The lunior-Senior Banquet was held April 7,
1950, at the China Chipper. We shall never
forget what hard work we did or what a beauti-
ful place the China Chipper turned out to be.
At the end of the vear, averages showed Lin-
wood Braswell to be' the chief marshal. Ellen
Britt, Buby Dawes, Geraldine Owens, Bobbv
Proctor, and Milton Winstead were the other
marshals. None of us will ever forget the candle
light ceremony.
When we returned to school as seniors, we
were placed under the guidance of Mrs. Simp-
son. We elected Boyd Dwens as our class presi-
dent. Later we sponsored the Curtis Magazine
subscription contest. The class sold 331,393.00
worth of magazines. Linwood Braswell received
a watch and loyce Taylor received 35.00 in
magazine subscriptions for reaching the high
total. The class received a Benjamin Franklin
Plaque.
Undertaking to publish the BEAR TRAP was
not an easy job. We feel, however, that we
have succeeded.
By this time we, the seniors of 1951, will have
presented a senior play, will have taken our trip
to Vlfashington, and will have attended the
,lunior-Senior Banquet.
As our commencement draws near, we feel
that our high school days have been memorable
ones-full of work and play. To those who have
helped make those happy memories, 1, on be-
half of the Senior Class, take this opportunitv
to express our appreciation.

CLASS PHUPHEEY
Looking into the future ten years, I see the members of our 1951 Senior Class representing
all walks of life. Time has seen them going about their duties with a never-failing spirit to
make the most of life. Here they are as l have seen them:
Mrs. Luther McKeel, the former Miss Doonie Gray Adams, is keeping house for her husband,
the coach of Charles L. Coon.
Jeanette Bass has just opened one of the most modernized beauty shops in the state. She
has two well-known beauticians employed in her new shop. They are Marian Langley and
Georgia Lee Webb.
Kenneth Batts is one of the best known detectives in the East. They call him "The Fat Man."
Jean Batts and Doris Cooke are employed by Biltmore-Atlanta Hotel. Doris is head typist and
jean works as a switchboard operator.
Laynette Cooley and husband, Millard, are taking their second honeymoon in London.
Arthur Beaman, one of the Twentieth Century's best known poets, has just finished his fifth
book. The title is "Beaman's Poems for Enjoyment."
Ellen Britt has just replaced Miss Clara Bass as French teacher at Elm City High School.
