DEDICATION 2U nation We, the Senior Class of 1952, dedioate this Yearbook to the Board of Eduoation, the Faculty, the Under- classmen, and the Townspeople of Americus. Through their many efforts, understanding, and guidance, we are able to receive our diplomas and look back over four wonderful years of high school life. We greatly appreciate the oppor- tunities, the training, co-operation, and the unfailing kindness which we have received all four years, and especially this last year when we have asked for so much. We hope this yearbook will help express our thanks in such a way that you will consider your efforts on our behalf well spent. Director——R. I.

Only four of the group that started to Americus in 194C will grad- uate together. They are Melba Ernst, Bob Maxwell, Lloyd Brown, and Eugene Farm. Others who started to high school with us to make the total num- ber of nine green freshmen were: Jim Jackson, Bill Duncan, Pearl Pracht, Jean Henry, and Bessie Fiant. The officers the freshman year were� President, Jim Jackson; Vice President, Melba Ernst; Secretary- Treasurer, Jean Henry; Student Council, Pearl Pracht. Our sponsor was Mrs. Victoria Daily. We chose the lilac as our class flower, lavendar and white as the class colors, and If it can be done, we can do it as our motto. In due time we were initiated by the senior class. The girls wore men's night shirts, panama straw hats, and wore their hair in pigtails. The boys wore mother hubbard dresses with sunbonnets. All wore onion corsages and carried tooth brushes. Stunts were given in the afternoon followed by a covered dish supper and party that evening. We tried several times to have a successful class party at Lake Kahola but were rained out most of the times. However that did not make us give up entirely; we tried it again the next year. We started our silly sophomore year with three new members,Bill Ewing, Delvin Delfs, and Wayne Barrett making a total of twelve. Verna White and Peggy Stiamlin came and left during th year. The officers that year were� President, Bill Duncan; Vice President, Lloyd Brown; Secretary, Jim Jackson; Treasurer, Melba Ernst; Student Council, Bob Maxwell. Mr. Kenneth Bonczkowski was our sponsor that year. a A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A The three new students left us at the end of the sophomore year so our jolly junior year started with the original nine that started as freshmen.

Miss Virginia Peery under- took the task of being our sponsor. In November we gave the play Good Gracious, Grandma I a 3-act comedy.

A large cardboard windmill stood in the background. Small wooden shoes were given as favors. Reverend Stephen Williams was the guest speaker Bessie Fiant became Mrs. Delvin Delfs and left our class in Jan- uary. Jean Henry became Mrs. Don Pracht but finished the junior year with us but did not return to school with us the next fall. Only seven dignified11 seniors started the last year. We were kept quite busy collecting papers which we had started doing in the summer. In the fall we sold magazine subscriptions and Christmas sup- plies. Putting out the Indian Scout was no small job either. The officers this year werei President, Melba Ernst; Vice Presi- dent, Eugene Fann; Secretary, Bob Maxwell; Treasurer, Bill Duncan; Student Council, Pearl Pracht. Mr. John Eudaley and Mr. Louis Patter- son took the task of being our class sponsors. At the end of the first week of school the freshman class was initiated The girls wore gunny sack shorts, flannel shirts, kettles for hats, one work shoe and one rubber boot, and wore their hair in one pigtail The boys wore gunny sack shirts, girl’s shorts, one high heel and one rubber boot, and a woman's hat Both had their hair starched by the seniors. The freshman as well as the three new teachers were required to carry a rock and an egg tied in a bandana on a stick. Stunts were given in the afternoon followed by a scavenger hunt. A covered dish supper and a party ended the day's activities.

Mr. Milliken and Chief Eudaley smoke the peacepipe, and the mayor tells him about visiting the Indians of Americus High School that were seniors in '52. After they had visited, Mr. Milliken returned to Americus, where he reported the facts and findings to the merchants of Americus. They seemed very well pleased and decided they could afford to help the students if they all go as far away as did the class of '52. would TIME WILL TELL wonoor w:‘Whigene UHir uij s in such good are gein Tuesday night. their aun u luldn’t have beer Mrs. L it was because mstone bowling ing to s| Thanksgiv ■Staff IB xnd H.P.

Perhaps the undergraduates will find them useful in the future. 1. Thou shalt not cut classes. (Take the day off.) 2. Thou shalt not copy somebody else's homework. (Have him do it for you.) 3. Thou shalt not drive the teachers to their graves. (Let the undertaker do it.) 4. Thou shalt not run down the halls. (Slide, it's more fun.) 5. Thou shalt not look at anybody's test paper. (Ask to have it passed to you.) 6. Thou shalt not shove others in the hall. (Knock 'em down instead.) 7. Thou shalt not whisper in class. (Shout, you get more results.) 8. Thou shalt not make love in cars. (Do it in the halls, we did.) 9. Thou shalt not slam the locker doors. (Leave them open.) 10. Thou shalt not eat candy between classes. (Do it in class, you have more time.) Dean Rltzenberger Treasurer.
