AIRPLANES The future may bring giant winged monsters capable of carrying many people, great air- dromes covering many acres, floating airforts many miles at sea, and around-the-world air- lines. Travel by air has been growing safer and safer in the last few years. In the future, one may be as safe in the air as on the ground. a a a et a — eee POEM Down beside the Cape Fear River Neath a sunny southern sky In our city by the ocean Stately stands Hanover High. When the spring has turned to summer And the year of school is o’er We who are Hanover’s Seniors Leave her halls for evermore Leave her, yes, but we shall carry Knowledge gained within her halls Ideals cherished by her founders Friendships framed within her walls. Though the ways of life may take us Far beyond the brown Cape Fear We shall not forget our high school Or the friends we held so dear. —ANNE GREEN.

They may be giant, six lane, well-lighted rib- bons of concrete spanning the continent; or they may be great illuminated underground tubes, built thus to cut the number of acci- dents caused by wet, icy roads or by dense fogs.

The dreams of the world of tomorrow—and they are rapidly be- coming realities — are such that actual “work” in the sense which we know it, will consume little or no time; monstrous machines will do the work, turn out our food. clothine, and houses; Jeisure time will be left for man to dream of a more nerfect world, to seek pleasure for pleasure itself. The world of tomorrow will bring time for perfection in art and litera- ture. Living will be a pleasure from day to day, living in the sunshine and in the breezes just because they are sunshine and breezes. A new ren- naissance will come to bring a cul- mination in art and literature; for the super-men and super-women of tomorrow will have the cultural background of centuries of work and thought on which to draw—and their time can be spent in perfecting the Utopian dreams which man has had through all the ages. And we, in dividing our work with our play, are taking a great step forward to free man from the strenuous tasks of physical labor with which he has beset himself.

I wish that each of you would learn to stop now and then and say to himself, ‘I’m having a good time’ or ‘I’m en- joying this.” Many times during our past years together in high school have we stumbled or grum- bled right through some happy experience without even realizing that it was happy. That experience might have been a test, an examination, a task, or practice for a play. At the time perhaps we thought we were unduly burdened, but later with clearer vision we perceived that the experience had strength- ened our fellowship and brought us closer together. So today when the fourth year of our joyful school days together approaches its close, we look back and realize all that those days have meant to us. Let us briefly set forth some of the more outstand- ing events of our four years together. Like any freshman, we were shy and self-conscious when we first entered New Hanover High School, because everything was new and different. Indeed we were not at all sure that we were going to like changing our old grammar grade ways. Since the first floor was the lowest and the most devoid of upper classmen, we felt more at home there. As one of our own members expressed it, “First yowre a freshman How little you feel Like a small ant As he’s crushed by a heel.” For freshmen class officers we elected Grace Spar- row, a newcomer to Wilmington, as president; Jerry Newbold, vice-president; Buren Sidbury, secretary- treasurer; and Steve Peck and Winifred Bagwell, student council representatives. As Grace Sparrow moved away not long after she was elected, the actual responsibility of the presidency devolved upon Jerry Newbold, who executed the office admirably. The year was important for more reasons than one. First, a new principal, Mr. T. T. Hamilton, came to fill the vacancy left by Mr. Green. Second, the citi- zens of the county voted on whether or not they would furnish the school children with an extra month of schooling. Some of our classmates deliv- ered speeches over the radio in favor of the supple- ment, which was carried. As freshmen, we made many friends, and with each new acquaintance we were drawn closer to our class and our school. For this reason and for the rea- son that she was a friend of all, it was with the greatest sorrow that we learned of the untimely death of Helen Strange Bridgers, a classmate. There were many clubs open to us, and we showed our interest in school activities by joining the organi- zations most suited to our tastes. By the end of the year we felt like a real part of the school and eagerly awaited our term as sophomores. When we returned to N. H. H. S. in the fall of our second year there, we felt almost like old timers he 1939 and everf found occasions to laugh at the freshmen. Embarking upon this new term with us was Mr. H. M. Roland, who succeeded the late Mr. Ray Funderburk, our beloved Superintendent of Schools. Although the place left by Mr. Funderburk was hard to fill, Mr. Roland proved a worthy successor. That year Steve Peck was our leader, and the other ofhicers were: vice-president, Gladys Sneeden; secre- tary-treasurer, Harriet Harrington; student council representatives, Grace Slocum and Robert Calder. Joining more clubs and widening our range of extra- curricula activities, we lost our timidity altogether. At the beginning of our third year we were deeply saddened when a beloved and dear adviser, Miss Ida Schnirel, passed away. We were glad, however, that a member of our class, Frances Hearn, was selected to pay the students’ tribute to her. Our junior officers were: president, Billy Gibson; vice-president, Jimmy Davis; Secretary-treasurer, Buren Sidbury; student council representatives, Bob Schultz and Gwendolyn Sidbury. We really felt our importance and realized our responsibility by that time. We were a part of practically all school ac- tivities—including the clubs, paper and annual staffs, student council, athletics, school dances and enter- tainments. There was much to be done that year—rings to be selected and ordered, a motto to be chosen, the seniors to be entertained, annual pictures to be taken, a play to be given, and capable officers for the ensu- ing year to be elected. All of these tasks were well- performed by capable committees and made consider- ably easier by the cooperation of all the juniors. Our motto, “Together and Forward,” well charac- terized our class spirit, for we were successful with all our undertakings. Because of careful planning and forethought on the part of our faculty helpers, the junior-senior prom and the junior play, “Her Incubator Husband,” were tremendous successes. We were the first class to elect a chief marshal to serve the school. Proud indeed was everybody to wear the ruby-set ring of our class at the end of the year. With high hearts we came together again at the beginning of our fourth year. Up the senior steps we walked with a dignity befitting our station. We were the recognized leaders of the school, and we tried to fill this influential position accordingly. It was a great honor to have forty-eight members of our class elected to the National Honor Society. Twenty of these had been chosen the latter part of their junior year. The cast of our senior play, ‘““Adam and Eva,” worked hard and gave an excellent performance. For nearly four years our class has worked and played together, shared and lost alike. We have de- veloped and strengthened that common bond of fellowship which will hold us deat to one another throughout our lives. One knows not how much he appreciates a thing until it is severed from him—so with our school days. May they long stand like shining lights beckoning us to a world of rich memories. —HarriEtT Harrincron. | ple 939 : Name DoroTHy ARTHUR James AULD Mary AYCOCK WINIFRED BAGWELL Atvis BALLARD RUSSELL BaRNES MERRIAM BARRINGTON Nett Batson VERGIE BEALL M.
