As we boarded the covered wagon back in 43 to begin our long journey to the west, we huddled close together, awkward and self-conscious. MOst of us didrft know the first thing about man- aging a wagon. Of course we'd heard of head driver Lehman and a few of the veteran pioneers, but we soon found out that most of what you hear isnit true. The first year was harder oh ourieaders than us, it seemed, ,cause we lost by the wayside eight different English teachers and driver Lehman, too! The first feel of grease paint came our way when we presented Apple Mary and The Negro Minstrel. Yes, that first year we stuck kind of close to- gether, conscious of our low position compared to the ones riding in the first wagon of the caravan. The next year we felt a little bigger fcause we'd moved up. to the next wagon, which introduced us to our riew driver, Mr. Smith. Taking time out along the way for lots of parties, which brought the fascinating game of winkum into our littleworld, dancmg classes at the All Saints Parish House and a big picnic at Saniando, we were reachin our destination. . .

Our superhuman physical specimens gallantly carried the pigskin .to the football field. Stepping back into the old routine, we again journeyed to Sanlando for our picnic. i still on its way when we presented our Junior play, uThe Big r blow-up when the cast lltook their own skip day. Tying Apopka for the Central Florida Championship, our football team received shiny silver footballs which a few of the boys seem to havee-er-dahemislaid. Does anyone have any pennies for the l-larvest Queen? These immortal words were heard around the campus before our gala Thanksgivmg Day dance. ln the district and state contests the Glee Club brought, home top honors to help put WPHS on the map. Our sports-loving gals helped form the Varsity Club, which took part in several play days that year. But really the best part of our Junior year was the Prom we gave for the Seniors. lt Wlll be hard to forget it, or the late parties afterward for many years to come. Here we are at last, in the first wagon! It was hard to get used to our high position, but we soon adjusted ourselves. Welcoming our Alumni home in a friendly manner, the cheerleaders sponsored our first Homecoming Queen, who was presented at the half in royal style. Peace and quiet prevailed around ye oli WPHS during the three days the Key Club boys attended the convention in Pensacola. Dancing to a real orchestra, everyone enjoyed the annual Christmas formal sponsored by the members of our wagon. Our main responsibilities this year were publishing the TOWAYAM and the WI PA Hl SC. Even if we do say so, we did a swell job. At last! Here they are, those long-awaited Band uniforms, as a result of four years of hard work. The Prom! That night we were honored guests of the Junior Class. Amid all the gaiety of the dance, a moment of sadness came to us when we realized that sOon our journey would be over. The caravan came to its final stop as we marched down the aisle to receive notice of lljourney's end. llgugwna don't W M LEROY GROSS wills his test tubes and Chemistry notes to an equally ambitious genius, Robert Burks.
