Odds and Snds How surprised we were when we began recalling the names of all the boys and girls who have been in our class since we were first graders in 1942-431 From some twenty or thirty, we are now four- teen! We have been together throughout high school, and it's dif- ficult to sav whether the happy frivolous days or the serious, dif- ficult ones will linger longest in our memories. Our graduation this year probably will not make us feel half so important not sophisti- cated as did that day in 1949 when Myra, the valedictorian, proudly proclaimed out first great milestone. We anticipated our first day as freshmen with both thrill and dread, and sure enough, it was a rainy Monday. The boys wondered if they would be able to sit down the next day, and the girls had their vanity pricked with backward dresses and mussed hair. Joan Gilbert left us, and Thomas Pinion joined us that year. We were the first class to enjoy our Homemaking and Vocational Agriculture departments throughout our high school career. In our sophomore year, the two Margies--Watson and Stephens-- moved away. Our boys were beginning to show their prowess as athletes. Every one of them lettered in sports that year. As juniors, our two most outstanding events were the Halloween Carnival and the Junior-Senior Banquet. We planned and worked very hard for both. Although the weather was bad for the banquet, it was a success. We selected our graduation rings and looked for- ward to our senior year. Now as seniors, we are engaged in various senior activities: publishing the annual, the senior play, and the senior minstrel show. Then there's the fun of freshman initiation, the task of passing his- tory, the excitement of graduation, and finally the senior trip.
