Class History Our class began in 1940. Miss Bailey had half the class and Mrs. Richard- son had the other half. Because we weren't used to a group of children, Miss Bailey would stand us in the corner or either use her cane on our little legs. Mrs. Richardson would send us in the cloak-room until we found out what she meant by telling us to be still and quiet. Some of us went to Miss River's section in the second grade. Everyone had scared us so much about her until we cried every morning. This wore off soon and all of us learned to love her very much. In the third and fourth grades, Miss Green and Miss Wofford must have tried to develop our vocal chords. One of our favorite tunes was Found a Peanut. All of us had a boy friend or a girl-friend. These loves lasted until some of the class were finally joined in, holy matrimony. We really sat down to work in the fifth grade. It was in this grade that we learned the forty-eight states and capitols. That's when Dickie's teacher was her cousin. This is the only reason she passed!!! In the sixth grade it was harder. This is the year Mr. Nunn came to be our teacher. We say this because he was our homeroom teacher and English teacher for three years. Miss Wilson, could this be the reason we are so dumb in English? During the seventh grade Miss Rogerson was our mathematics teacher. She tried to teach us how to say the twelve multiplication tables, but some of us still struggle when we try to multiply. The next year we began looking forward to the last day of school, when Mr. Rhodes would hand us a sheet of paper upon which was written our promotion from grammar school to high school. This year about ten students from Oak Grove came to join us. The genius of our class came with them. We were really something in high school. We were just as big as anybody -- at least we thought it. This year passed quickly. Mr. Seignious was our thrill the next year. We always had something to tease him about. I believe it must have been Miss Daisy Bell. Don't you think so? ? ? We always had some kind of term paper, or homework to do, though. Trying to get out of class to have a class meeting was almost as bad as pleading with a judge. Finally our senior year has come. A group of bookkeeping students have caught it pretty hard. With our lessons, senior play practice, some working in the afternoons wasn't still too much for extra assignments such as outlining chapters in chemistry, themes, and other things. All of it turned out to be use- ful, though. Those were wonderful days, and now the day for which we have all looked forward to for twelve long years is finally here. When we look back on those days and years the forthcoming graduation day brings a little sadness, as well as gladness to each of us, because it will probably mark our last time together. In the years to come all will look back on dear old A, H, S, and think of the happy and well spent days that were passed under the supervision of Mr. Garris, Mr. Millard, and the faculty. Now we turn into the wide, troublesome world with a final goodbye to Andrews High School. Emily Faye Mixon Class Historian 18
