£asf Will And (5csfamenf We the Class of 1960, of Luther Jackson High School, Merrifield, State of Virginia, in sixty-four individual and distinct parts, being about to pass out of this sphere of education, do make and publish this, our last will and testament, hereby revoking and making void all former wills or promises by us at anytime heretofore made, or maybe, carelessly spoken, one to the other as a thoughtless wish of an idle hour. As to such estate as it has pleased the Fate and our own strong hands and brains to win for us, we do dispose through our sponsor, Mr. H. L. Lawson, who will administer this Will and Testament in ac¬ cordance with the wishes of the Class of 1960. We bequeath to our beloved principal, Mr. Taylor M. Williams, a heavy mortgage on our future, our deepest reverence, our sincere affection, and the whole and limited wealth of our eternal memory. (Please forgive every gray hair and wrinkle we caused during our brief stay.) To Mr. Robert A. Tate, we leave the echoes of our resounding voices and clattering steps in the cor¬ ridors of Luther Jackson High School. To Mrs. Hammond, our guidance director, we leave the familiar and long sought after answers to ques¬ tions why . . , when . . , and where . . . ? We give and bequeath to the dear faculty, who have been our instrucotrs in all the wisdom of the ages, a sweet unbroken succession of restful nights and peaceful dreams. No longer need they lie awake through the long watches of the night to worry over the uncertainty of whether this one is doing her work tonight. To our most worthy successors, the Junior Class, we leave our coveted seats in the back of the audi¬ torium. We bequeath to the student body of Luther Jack- son High School, as a whole, some rare schemes by, which they may succeed in getting their parents to PTA meetings and other successful activities, thus proving to the principal and teachers that we are not all orphans. (Contact main office for informa¬ tion ) To the dear young freshman who will enter in September, we bequeath a booklet entitled “Psycho¬ logical Tolerance” containing invaluable information on illegal locker entrance, walking the halls and how to talk to your teachers into letting you go out to a non-existing activity. The following may seem but trifling bequests, but we hope they may be accepted as valuable assets to those who may receive them. To: Kenzie Locke, Robert Wright leaves his athletic ability Gloria Wiggins leaves her physics ability to Gloria Thomas Cleotria Duncan her typing ability to Jackie Smith Thelma Ewell would like to leave her secret of “How to obtain knowledge by osmosis” to Virginia Marshall Montey Thomas leaves her ability to get along well with others to Mary Ann Collins Pat Mills leaves her “Blonde Streak” to Doris Hyden and Ernestine Moss. Jean Smith leaves her ability to “Peter Gunn” to Elania Taylor. James Peterson, his musical ability to James Matthews Speller Hall, his football ability to Philip Moore Leonard Lee and Albert Ellis, their ability in D. 0. to James Vanison and Joe Ellis Carroll Rich, his ability to get along with people to Percy Davis Eddie Jones, his girl friends to Milton Gunn William Collins, his drumming skill to George Wilks Brenda Marshall and Doris Thomas, their basket¬ ball skill to the team of 1960-61 Harold Mansfield, his charm and personality to Wilber Coats Prentiss Randall, his romantic ability to Robert Pearson Kenneth Ford, his music ability to Houston Summers Irone Hicks, her slim profile to Jackie Baskerville Dianne Mercer, her ability to learn th e cheering squad steps to Doris Gaskins William Allen, Ed Gunn, Bob Jones, and Mary Taylor, their eyeglasses to all the sightless stu¬ dents of Luther Jackson Tim Johnson, his ability to graduate to Bernard Robinson Audrey Willson, her amiability to Sheila Lewis and Gloria Black Ronald Reaves, his thirteen letters earned in sports to Percy Davis Haney Pearson, his wide waistline to Walter Ellis and George Dickson In witness whereof, We, the Class of 1960, the testator, have this our will, written on one sheet of parchment, set our hands and seal this fifth day of June, Anno Domini, one thousand nine hundred and sixty. 80
