Three of these came from Hurricane, one from Hazel Green, seven from Pulaski Pike, one from Jasper, Tennessee, one from Huntsville, one from Central, and the remaining thirteen have spent their entire school life at Riverton. In 1946, ’48, and ’49, Mickey Wilbourn won first place in the F.F.A. speaking contest, and in 1947 he won second place. In 1948, Mickey also won second place in the State Semi-final Speaking Contest. Geraldine Carter has been selected as the “Good Citizenship Girl’ by the Senior Class and the Faculty to represent our school in the D.A.R. contest for 1949. In this class we have six Allied Youth members and three Beta Club members. All of the class except one are members of either the F.F.A. or the F.H.A. We have taken part in all sports events. We are well represented this year in basket ball, having five boys on the “A” team and two on the “B” team. Billy Ray Patterson has been captain of the “A” team for the past two years. Five of the cheer leaders for 1949 were selected from our class. Our motto is “Not Finished, Just Begun.” The class flower is the snapdragon, and the class colors are yellow and white.
