fun .'--JS 'f -r. v Fourteen CLASS POEM UFOOTSTEPS IN THE HALLS OF FAME In '46 we started in And, my, how green were we! But while our whirling heads did spin We aimed our goal to see. While still the Freshman name we bore, We grew to love our high school's name NX'ith four more years in which to score Our fleeting marks in the Halls of Fame. In '47 as Sophomores, all, We felt our knowledge stronger growg In stature now no longer small We were beginning to be in the know , So onward ever onward Toward the upper goal we sought. The course becoming rougher As eagerly we fought. And now that we were juniors And half our goal was won, We settled down less grimly And had our share of fun. But oh, the crowning Glory, Of being the Senior Class. And thinking we could get away Vfith that well-known back talk sass. Now as we enter the home stretch The years have seemed to fly, And as we recall the last four years There is nothing left but a sigh. To all our teachers faithful Our thanks we would extend, For they have been our true friends Until the fateful end. The football games and dances, Christmas plays and parties, too, May all you lower classmen Have all these joys we knew. To classmates, Elaine and Gerald, Who too early left their earthly shrine To flower in God's garden, May all heavenly joys be thine. And now. Dear Alma Mater, We leave Thy Halls of Fameg May Fortune smile upon us And Fame attach our name. -Dick MATLOCK

How important we felt when we started out for school that first morning of our new school year in 1949. We were Seniors! As we walked along, we saw some old friends from the year before. There were others, too, who felt important, for they were Freshmen. We were reminded of our own Freshman year and remembered how anxious we were to do great things, With it came memories-memories of our first officers, who were elected with such pride under the able leadership of Mr. B. Lahr. Our officers were: P7'6,ll:6l!fllf .. ..,, George Francisco Serreiary ..,, .. ,Theresa Gaiotti 'I'1'e11.r1n'er , , Johanna Tockett
