Our second year we still had fun- iust so our grades were fair5 But then as juniors, we worked hard5 we had begun to care. Approaching, then, our senior year found no life of ease5 Our themes, reports, and daily work just never seemed to cease. Ott' times our days grew weary5 we thought, What can we do? We wondered it 'twas worth all that to finally make it through. As we accept diplomas for the work which we have done, We think of all the battles we have somehow overcome5 Our hearts are filled with gladness, and our heads are raised with pride For to know that we've attained our goal, our souls are satisfied. --Rita Green

CALM Adfory ln the fall of the year l946, the Freshmen entering Rhea High numbered one hundred and twenty-three. Our aim was to study hard and achieve many honors, the highest honor being that of receiving our diplomas at the end of our Senior year. Our Sophomore year, only ninety-eight of our classmates returned to attain a higer ed- ucation. This year we elected Orpha Bandy as President to lead us. Several members of our class made the varsity football team, two boys Agnew Travis and Bill Hart, made the boy's basketball team and Orpha Bandy made the girl's basketball team. Our third year we were proud to have Dottie Beene elected Most Beautiful Girl. This year we had several girls and boys on the basketball team. This year Carl Barger was President of our class which had de- creased in number to eighty-six. Returning to school for our Senior year we found only sixty-six members of our class still sticking with us, however, we were proud of this number since it was the largest graduating class in our school history. We elected Jack Boyd President to lead us through our final year of high school edu- cation. Those who were elected Superlatives were: Most Handsome Boy, Brantley Griffin, Most Beautiful Girl, Dottie Beene, Most Likely to Succeed, Margaret Abel, Most Popular Girl, Dottie Beene, Most Versatile Girl, Orpha Bandy, Most Versatile Boy, Clay- ton Morris, Best Boy Athlete, Vallas Frog- gy Sanders, and Wittiest, Harold Riley. Mary Ann Riley was elected Football Queen this year, and the F.F.A. boys elected Kath- leen Morgan F.F.A. Queen. Vallas Sanders made first team of the T.V.C., while Bill Hart made all East Ten- nessee, and an honorable mention on the T.V.C. and also the Tri-State Team. Carl Barger also made an honorable mention on the T.V.C. Long will we cherish in our hearts the joys and sorrows we have had during our four years of high school. As we approach the end of Our Senior year, we shall accept our diplomas with pride that we have at last attained our goal, and we regret only the fact that we shall be leaving schoolmates and teachers whom we have learned to love.
