Administration Seniors Advertising THEME cv C_y HE HElCiH I S of great men reached and kept were not attained by sudden flight.” This is true of all walks of life. If someone were to say to you that tomorrow all travel on earth would be done by rockets and atomic powered cars you would laugh at him. Why? It is too great a change from our present way of life. Going back about thirty years we find a different picture. The people were talking of the completion of the Panama Canal, the assassination of Archduke of Austria, and its kindling the flame of war in Europe. Shortly after, tragedy struck the United States. I he Lusitania had been sunk! Would this mean war? It was inevitable. I hrough America's boundless resources, capable leaders, doughboys’ fighting spirit and modern inventions, the United States emerged the victor in this terrible war. I his was a time for rejoicing. Johnny came marching home. After a few years of carefree dancing to the tunes of the new jazz music, he was ready to become one of the leading citizens of the land for which he had fought. His children were to enjoy a lasting peace. Alas!! A quarter of a century passed and history repeated itself in a war far worse than the first. We do not need to write of this one. We know what it has meant to mankind. Our school yearbook’s theme, “Then and Now” has attempted to show the changes in the history of our school during this time. We feel that with this traditional book we may go from the land of yesterday, through the present, and start dreaming of the future. May it be the key to fond memories and lasting friendship. Let us use it when dull care overtakes us in the years to come. [4] DEDICATION We, the class of ’47, like to go back to the years when you were our teacher. We became acquainted with you as our teacher of geography in Junior High; we deepened this friendship in Senior High.—Here you taught history and science. Not only did you act in the capacity of a teacher but also as a personal adviser and a true friend to everyone throughout our stay in these cherished halls. Now the sands in the hour glass are numbered, and we shall soon be leaving for the last time. But in departing we wish to leave with you something that will linger in your mind as a constant reminder of many fond memories. So to you, Mr. Pruyne, we dedicate our yearbook anti with it we express our sincere wish for success to you in the future.

Leon Loomis Martin Kandelin Martin Kandelin [9] Leon Loomis Martha Huee A MESSAGE TO THE CLASS OF 1947 It seems such a short time ago when you were Freshmen that one is startled to realize your high school days are over and the time is so near for you to leave Athens High School. Your enthusiasm and drive, your cheerfulness and friendliness, your array of unusual talent and ability have made a name and a record for your class which will stand high in the history of our school. Ye prophesy excellent accomplishments by various members of The Class of 1947 in the years to come, and it is our sincere desire that the beginnings made by you in Athens High School may be further developed in the direction of intelligent and responsible leadership, in social and scientific progress, in the fine arts, and along all avenues of wholesome living. Our wish is that your class may make its full contribution to help solve the world’s great problem of today, that of learning how to live peaceably, understand-inglv, and cooperatively with one another. Eugene E. Crediford [ io] IRVING W. HAZARD Principal Athens Senior High To The Class of 1947, A “good-bye” and a “fare-thee-well and a hope that we have helped you to envisage a philosophy of life that will guide you in the paths of service to the best in life. We covet for you the happiness that comes from a sense of the accomplishment of something difficult and worthy. We realize, as we believe you do, that your years in school to this time have merely laid the foundation and introduced to you the tools for this accomplishment. Now we hope that you will make good use of this foundation and these tools to build without ceasing the difficult superstructure of a worthy citizen of a needy world. Very sincerely, Irving W.

Helen Hunt Jackson SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS Standing Lucille Parmenter, Janice Terry Seated Wendell Hammond, Roliin Huntington PR ESI 1 )EXT’S M ESSAGE As we near the end of our last year of school we should realize that graduating will be only the beginning of the many accomplishments that will lie before us. Since our country has only recently emerged victorious from a world conflict, it will soon be our duty as citizens to help establish a long and secure peace. It will be also our task to prevent racial and religious discrimination among the people of the world. This will be the first test to which we shall put our high school education. Our class possesses many fine athletes and also many persons talented in different fields. We have proved our ability to accomplish any task set before us, by putting on two plays, a minstrel show and a number of minor activities. Thus as we go forward into the world of trials and tribulations, I am sure that we, the class of ’47, can overtake all of the many obstacles facing us. Sandy Harry Emily Lou is liked because of her easy-going, amiable personality. Folks say she’s quiet—until they get to know her. A rumor is flying around, which says she likes to eat. But this is a vast understatement. Emily leads us all where appetite is concerned. Her nickname, Sandy, refers to her hair which is a beautiful red-gold, and is naturally curly. With her friendly manner and sparkling brown eyes, we are sure Sandy has a bright future. A red streak, screeching tires, and clanking milk cans, are the forewarnings denoting the arrival of our class speed-demon, Harry. In contrast to his agility on the highway, Harold is seen lumbering through the halls, seldom exerting himself. Characterized by a broad grin, super disposition, and plaid shirts, this big, burly football player with the little red truck is certainly not to be forgotten. EMILY ADAMS HAROLD AMMERMAN JEAN ARNOLD MARGUERITE BEERS Charm, personality, lustrous hair, friendly smile, all this and much more has Jcannie, our small but vivacious classmate. In this world it’s really hard to find a better friend than Jean, who never seems to be too busy to lend a helping hand and give a friendly greeting to all. We are sure that she will go far in making this world more pleasant and to you, Jean, we extend our best wishes. Dancing, skating, and driving are all characteristic traits of Gert. The feature that is most attractive about her is her friendliness to everyone. Ask Gert what her favorite pastime is and I am sure you will discover that it is being with that tall, lanky fellow from Ulster. Does that account for the green truck we sec parked in front of her house so frequently? We will not soon forget all the cheerfulness Gert has added to our years with her. r 17] Jcannie Gert Jack Wabbert Jack, who is one of our studious classmates, always seems to have a friendly smile for everyone and is never too busy to give out with a hearty “Hi. Jack takes an active part in musical events and is a member of both the orchestra and the band. He plays his flute with the zeal of a professional. Being a clever writer enables him to compose the sport items for the newspaper. Good-Luck, to you, Jack, in everything you do. We present, with pride, another ex-serviceman as a classmate. Evidently, the seniors aren’t the only ones glad to have him back. The juniors like it pretty well, too. Especially a certain junior girl. We find he possesses the same initiative as the other vets and that is a pleasing atmosphere for all. Even though he has been with us only this one year, he has helped us to make it the success it has been. JOHN BENSON ROBERT BIDLACK MARJORIE BIDLACK VICTOR BIRD “Oh, the first couple promenade the outside . . .” Yes, folks, it’s a square dance, and if you look very closely you will see Marjorie somewhere in the middle of everything, because square dancing is her favorite pastime. She also likes being with a certain red head. In her quiet way. Marge has made a host of friends for herself—and they all wish her the best of luck in her future home-making. Vic is a nearly-perfect specimen of, “What no girl would mind being seen with.” He is a natural-born leader, just brimming ovci with initiative, which is proven by the fact that he is editor of our year book, a high-ranking student. and one of the most popular members of our class. If you’re ever dying to catch a glimpse of him. and can’t find him, ask the girl who knitted that stocking cap where he is. Marge [18] Vic Bunny Jan Whenever “Swanee” echoes through our corridors, we think of this diminutive bundle of dynamite. A patch of blue, scores of airmail letters, and a mischievous countenance—that’s Bunny, the drum majorette who caused many “ohs” and “ahs” from spectators because of her long, lustrous blonde hair. Adored by everyone, and with a heart inversely proportional to her size. Bunny will long be remembered as the cutup of the class of ’47. Janice has been with us only a short time but in that time she has won the friendship of everyone. Her favorite pastimes are ice skating and playing the piano. She also sings in girls’ chorus. Her aim in life is to be an international banker, and we are sure that she, with her studious and industrious mind, as well as her smiling blue eyes and stately manner, will fit every qualification success requires in her field of work. BETTY BLACK JANICE BROWN WILLIAM BROWN Do we hear singing? Ah yes, the radio no doubt, because that’s Hoagy Carmichael. What? It’s Bill Brown?? Well, we knew that Bill has a great many assets, such as his friendly smile and pleasing personality, hut this is a surprise! Always willing to help others—that’s our Bill. When it comes to sports, Bill is tops. Bill, with his unique ability to do things well, will really go places in this modern world of ours. PAUL BURNS Paul is the “strong man” of our class—his charming manner, twinkling eyes, and cheerful, friendly nature all contribute to his popularity. With his willingness to win, he will succeed in whatever task is placed before him. His athletic ability is an outstanding point in his character. Anyone with a personality like Percy’s will have no trouble in acquiring life long friends. We will miss his cheerful, miscellaneous, yet friendly ways. Good Luck, Percy. Brownie f 19) Percy Birdie Tiny Since first grade, we remember Betty as one of our Ixjst oral readers. She has carried that same alert attitude with her all through her school years. We hear she is one of the outstanding domecon girls. Some of Betty’s poetry is as pretty as her singing, which we have heard on the stage several times. If you hear yodeling down near the Home-Ec room, it’s Betty, entertaining the girls. We have enjoyed being with her. Who’s that attractive, petite blonde strutting in front of the band? It’s none other than Tiny, our splendid majorette. Aside from being a whiz with a baton, Mabel is a grand girl and a sincere friend. When thinking of her. one naturally thinks also of her excellent taste in clothes. With her neatness and personality, we know that she will go far on the road to success and happiness. BETTY CORONER MABEL CORE PATRICIA COVENEY RITA COYEXEY It isn’t hard to guess that Pat, with those twinkling eyes and that beautiful smile, is Irish. Pat is active in Domecon and many other activities. including the Tri-Hi-Y. of which she is president. She is quite the outdoor girl, and can be seen biking or hiking most any weekend. Pat’s pleasing personality has made her many friends, and is sure to carry her far. Who is the girl who keeps Mrs. McDonald laughing in home economics class? That’s right. Rita with her quick laugh and a witty comment. This same wit and gaiety win her admirers and friends among the students. A promising artistic ability which you can find displayed in the Athenian will be one of the attributes useful to her in the future. As all know, Rita is one of our most brilliant students. Pat [20 1 Reet Bill Do-Do “Be it ever so humble,” there’s no place like Durrant’s “Emporium.” Right Bill? Bill’s versatility is unequaled. When we think of him, we think of three things—his deep, booming voice; his hunting ability, (game and otherwise— ahem!) and his efficiency as a mighty guard on “ye f x)thall team. Bill’s facetious remarks are invariably followed by bursts of laughtei from his companions. Yes, an all-around fellow is our Bill. WILLIAM CRAWFORD Who’s that gay person who never seems to have a care in the world? Of course, it’s Do-Do, nonchalantly strolling up the hall, wearing a cheery smile and emitting gay “Iliya’s” to everyone. A corny little joke always seems to add sparkle to her conversation. A likeable friend and a companion is Doris and to her we wish all the luck in the world, which is bound to be hers. DORIS DEWITT ADA DIMOCK ARLENE DUBOIS Did you ever see such pretty, black, wavy hair? It’s Adie’s crowning glory, and it’s also much admired by all of us. She is not only Mr. Hazard’s efficient secretary, but she is also first violinist in the high school orchestra, which she represented very well at the Northeastern District Orchestra. Her friendly manner will cause her to lx long remembered and she is bound to attain success in all she undertakes to do. Ever since seventh grade, Arlene has been gliding her graceful hands over the ivories, making beautiful music to accompany our singers. Indefatigably. she has worked with practically every group of singers we’ve ever organized. Her personality is charming and refreshing— and she is seldom quiet. She is an earnest student and a grand pal, and we’ll be waiting to hear from her when she becomes a famous concert pianist. f2l] Adie Kate Barb Cosmo Our capable waitress at the favorite soda fountain—that’s Barb. She’s an especially attractive girl, with pretty brunette hair and a bright, warm smile. She is also a vital contribution to our school hand and orchestra. As a trumpet player, she has, in addition, won sole success and recognition around the vicinity. In grammar, Barb especially shines, but she is also a prize student in her other subjects. We’ll look back to Barbara with pleasant memories and happy wishes. BARBARA DUNBAR June is best identified by her infectious little giggle, which can be heard almost anytime during the day. It is impossible to have a dull moment when she is around, because as soon as conversation stops, she has a joke to tell. We wonder whether or not there is a special significance in the nickname, Cosmo. June is certain to do well in any career that she may choose. JUNE DUNNING MARIE FAIRBANKS Marie is quite the athlete. Besides being a champion basketball, softball, and volleyball player, she is an expert motorcyclist, and can be seen zooming down Main Street at a great clip! If you eat out, chances are you have been waited on by Marie, for she has been a waitress in nearly every restaurant in town, and a darn good one, too. We all know she will have great success in any career she chooses. Skip SHIRLEY GRIMLEY A gay spirited blonde, with a winning smile and a neat hair-do, is Shirley. You may find her out skating or dancing; however, you might find her in the kitchen making candy, instead. Frosty is a loyal member and efficient secretary of the Domecon Club, and we know that her experience will help her after that happy day— graduation. r 22] Frosty Herb Wendy A staunch supporter of our class is Herb, who excels in his ability and willingness to help. His curly hair is the envy of all the girls and his winning smile has gained him countless pals who cherish his friendship. Herb received the Keystone Award this year, a very notable achievement of which we are all proud. We feel sure that Herb is already on the road to success. HERBERT HALSTEAD Besides being our very efficient class president, Wendy is also active in the field of sports. We are sure that Wendell would be an asset to any class and we are glad to have him as one of our classmates. His drawings are excellent and you have undoubtedly seen them on i osters advertising school affairs, as well as in our own Athenian. We know that Wendell will have no difficulty in reaching his goal in life. WENDELL HAMMOND JACK HARDING KIRBY HARRIS What is all the noise in second period study hall? It seems to be coming from that senior corner. Could it be Jack picking on the girls again? That seems to lx a favorite pastime of his. He always has a bright smile for all. You can see him dodging pedestrians here and there with his father’s black Dodge. Red hair and temper do not hold true in his case. A tall, slender form; piercing eyes, that seem to scrutinize each object at one glance; a quiet, but discerning manner; a voice that’s soft, but impressive, and an attracting personality—this is Larry. He first made his bows here when we were sophomores, and since then he has gained a slew of friends. Larry is a clever satirical writer, but he prefers hunting and other outdoor sports to anything else. His amazing personality will lx his keystone to achievement. Jack f 23 1 Larry Louise Charlie In our class, we have a sweet little brunette with a manner that is calm and serene. She takes school seriously, and one of her favorite pastimes is reading. You can usually find her talking with her pal, Betty Cordner, if she isn't studying. Since she is an adept student in typing and shorthand, we know she’ll make someone a fine stenographer, if she does not decide to he a beautician, or a certain somebody’s wife. “No, I disagree. It should l e that way.” “Now here is how it is ...! That's right, Charles is around. Charlie is our class wit, and he certainly loves to argue. Of course, it’s all in fun. He is always willing to listen to your troubles and then cheer you up with a joke. A high-honor student and a master-mind is our Charlie. Whenever entertainment is in demand, our own Charles should Ik sought out! LOUISE HAVENS CHARLES HAZARD JOANNE HOPKINS RICHARD HUFF Joanne's long, black, glossy hair is rightfully the target for compliments. Her personality is just as complimentary, for she is a fun-loving, witty companion, as Emily I-ou and others will testify. Joanne is a member of that famous “Triple Trio.” Even though it is famous, Joanne is the only member, however, who rolls leisurely to school in a lowly Cadillac. Her especially mastered art? Giggling. Here’s to John for more giggling. John We are proud to claim as one of our classmates, this tall, blonde veteran, who is convinced that a high school education is necessary toward a success in life. Dick is noted for his love of argument and handsome smile. It is quite evident to us that Dick will never have to depend on others; for he has shown us that he is cai able of taking care of himself. r 241 Dick Dory Rollo Small, cute and full of mischief is our Dory. She’s the life of every party; there is never a dull moment with her around. Dancing and parties arc her special pastimes. She’s one of our favorite drum majorettes whom you have undoubtedly seen marching before the band, twirling her baton with extraordinary skill. We’re sure that her cheerful smile and sparkling eyes will take her far into a world of success. Rollo, vice-president of our class, is always a great tease, hut his antics never lose him friends. Rollo is a humorous fellow; gather round and he’ll tell you some corny jokes. He’s one of the Romeos of the class. Maybe he can’t strum a mandolin but he sure can make a piano talk. Keep up the practice. Rollin, and maybe someday you’ll have a piano technique that will top that of any singer in the world of “swoon.” DORIS HUXSINGKR ROLLIN' HUNTINGTON NORMA ISBELL STANLEY JACK LIN Curly hair and dancing eyes ... so goes the old rhyme and so goes our Izzy. Her brown eyes and pleasant smile have won her many friends, both in and outside the halls of our Alma Mater. We are sure she will make out very well in the world of Home Economics. Ask-anyone about Izzy and he will tell you she is an industrious girl. To her we extend the best of luck in everything. Here’s a new, streamlined version of the boy we all like and admire. Stan’s attitude is one of consistent cheerfulness and unwavering alacrity. He’s the wizard of physics class, and that’s really an honor. His clever antics keep English class in a state of unsettled conduct, but the intense attitude he dons when he steps into mechanical drawing class sets a good example for the others. We have profited from contact with Stan. [25] Izzy Stan Jack Betty “Roses are red. violets are blue . . Is that the type of poetry you write, Jack? Maybe your poems, too, will lx recited by school children in future years. Jack is somewhat of a dreamer— but of course not in school! No one seems to know where he learned so much about the art of sewing. Keep ’em guessing, Jack. We know that with his easy-going manner, Jack will meet with much success. Harriette is one of our students from Litchfield, where she is a strong supporter of the church and many social groups. She is also a favorite at school and is president of the Dome-con Club. A good student in all subjects, she is always glad to give help when it’s needed. Although small and attractive, her tastes seem to lean towards BIG boys. Betty is sure to have the best of everything. JOHN LANTZ HARRIETT! : MASLIN ARDITH MC INTIRE THOMAS MITCHELL Although Ardith lives five miles from school, she always manages to get here somehow. Even during the worst storms of winter, Art is our “Old Faithful.” Ardith is always neatly dressed and her hair is always waved. Although she’s good in all sports, basketball and other school games, she prefers an outside sport—horseback riding. We arc sure that Art will enjoy herself in everything she does. When asked, “What do you like to do,” Tom’s reply was the same as you would get from most boys when that particular question is asked. I like to eat and sleep,” came the answer. He also likes to dance and is interested in sports. Without his friendliness and witty retorts our senior class would not lx- complete and to him we extend our best wishes for a bright future. [261 Art Tom Lou Munn When we hear a hearty, good natured laugh, we know Lou has arrived. What is all the buzzing going on between Louise and Helen in Home Economics Class? Lou is an efficient base drummer in both band and orchestra. If you happen to be touring East Athens on a Sunday afternoon you are liable to see a 1939 DeSoto parked in front of Louise’s house. Good Luck and Best Wishes. Are you feeling blue? If so, here is one of the best remedies we know of. Munn, with her bright and shining smile, could cheer up the gloomyist of people. Some of her favorite pastimes arc ice skating and going to Eike’s Soda Fountain. She has a charm and a personality all her own, that will go far in this world, and we wish her all the luck possible. LOUISE MULLEN SHIRLEY MUNN EDWARD MOLYNEAUX EDWARD PALMER Having Ed with us all through school has been a rare treat. His good humor and kindly manner, combined with his never ending interest in studying, and his sprightly cooperation in outside activities, have made him an ideal classmate. Ed is always willing to help teachers and students alike. Although Ed always seemed to have his share of the tough breaks, he always came back just as determined as ever. Our departing words to him are sincere wishes for success. A red plaid shirt, a broad smile, and unique ability in athletics are some characteristics which remind us of Ed. His favorite pastime, besides sports, is teasing Miss Bean. He has a set goal to reach, and, although sonic things such as the Marines may hold him up, we know that some day he will be making history on a baseball diamond. We’ll be cheering for you all the way. Bunk. r 27 } Ed Bunk Toots Lucy Norma is one of our country lasses, but it didn’t take her long to make many Athens friends. She is always ready for a laugh and is really a swell sport. That Norma can usually be found studying is evidenced by the fact that her name always appears on the honor roll. Norma is an excellent home-ec student and a staunch supporter of the Domecon Club. This cheerful friend of all is lxuind to meet every kind of success. Our Lucille is always well-dressed. She is a pretty girl, neat, intelligent, and friendly. She lias many pals because of her pleasing personality. Her clear skin and beautiful hair bring her many compliments from teachers and classmates alike. She is an industrious, honor roll student. Lucy’s short, (that’s no detriment, even if “he” isn’t), and sweet, (no comparisons to “him” this time) — with a fine start toward a successful future. NORMA PARKS LUCILLE PARMENTER T J -4 fi HARRY PATTERSON DONALD PATTON Bud's Plymouth is usually seen packed full of many “mighty’’ seniors, but where is Bud? Why, under that non-descript hat which he is seldom without, of course. Bud is the fellow who brightens every conversation with his witty sayings and manages to keep everyone in stitches. He is also an officer and very active member of the Hi-Y. We know that Bud will take the high road to success. Who’s that we sec, or should we say hear, coming down the street toward school on his motor controlled bicycle?? We can always tell that it is none other than Bob, by his brightly colored shirt and blonde hair. It seems that two of his favorite pastimes are talking and teasing the girls. He is another returned service man and we wish him the best of everything life can bring. Bud [28] Bob Pudge D Here’s a blonde, blue-eyed sweetie, with everything from brains to looks. No wonder Betty has so many pals. Coming down the hall with a cheery smile on her face, she greets each and all—sophomores, juniors, and seniors. She is the type that really makes things perk; consequently there is never a dull moment when Betty is around. She’s usually with her best friend, Doris. We know she will be a success in her career as a nurse. Good luck, Betty. BETTY PHELPS We have in our class one of the nicest girls we have ever known. Naturally we mean Donna, the girl with much beauty and ability. Her sparkling eyes and sweet smile have made her a favorite with teachers and students. Donna has promising skill in the fields of art and writing. She is lots of fun and will always lend a helping hand. An asset to the class of ’47 is our D. DONNA POWERS MARY ANN RAULERSON We present Mary Ann, who is one of our all-time favorites. She’s everyone’s friend, in-, deed. Her talents cover just about everything from extreme excellence in sports to prize knitter in the class, with scholarship, popularity, and generosity, all rolled up in between. She has participated in and contributed to nearly every important event our class has encountered; and if you don’t believe her smile is intriguing, just glance at her picture. We wish her luck with her college career. JOYCE ROGERS An all-round girl is Joyce. Besides being the life of first period study hall, always ready for a good time or laugh, she is a member of the Triple Trio, and is a star home-ec student. This is quite a combination, so you shouldn’t be surprised to know she is among our favorite seniors. We all wish her the best of everything, and know she will have it. Impy [29 1 Jo-Jo Fuzzy Onie Sarah is “on the beam.” Unbounded energy makes her an athlete and an all round “live wire.” We think Sarah must like good old Athens High School, of course we all do, but there isn’t one of us that can prove it with a record of ten solid years of regular attendance with very few days absence in the other two years. That certainly is a fine way to start life— keep up the regularity, Sarah. SARAH ROGERS Leona’s devotion to her man is admired by all who know her; for where one is found, likewise the other. Need we say more? Friendliness is dominant in Onie's personality. A one-time soda jerker, and an all-time favorite is Leona, who is always smiling or on the verge of laughter. Her cheery disposition is a boon to our class and we hope that her aims and ambitions arc fulfilled. LEONA ROLLS RAYMOND RUSSELL RAYMOND SHAFFER Small, quiet and packed full of surprises, that’s Bud, our faithful football manager and classmate. Sports and dancing arc his two favorite pastimes. His friendly all-round sporty manner seems to attract many friends, both inside and outside the halls of Athens High. His smile and dark sparkling eyes help to express his magnetic l crsonality. His willingness to help get things done well will take him a long way into a successful future. Bud [ 30 ] Ray, who is one of our many returned service men. has adjusted himself very well here. Much interested in poetry, engraving, and mechanics, he manages to keep busy. You may often see him whizzing down Main Street in his Model A Ford, or into Carps. Ray is another great tease. Does that account for the noise in first period study hall? To you, Ray. we extend the best of luck in mechanical engineering. Ray Smittv Steve Charles is another one of our very businesslike people. He is studying most of the time you sec him. He is quiet enough in classes, hut outside he is the life of any party. His favorite subject is mechanical drawing, in which he excels. Charlie likes to swim in the summet time. He is an all-round classmate. We wish him very good fortunes which we arc sure he %vill have. The best way to say Phyllis Stevens is to say, “magnetic personality,” for this wonderful charm has been abundantly bestowed upon her. This does not come from any single trait; rather, it exists because of this combination: red hair; a level headed-way of facing things; unsurpassed humor and wit; a very quick, alert mind; and one of the loveliest voices Athens High has ever claimed. We’re proud that Phyl is our classmate. CHARLES SMITH PHYLLIS STEVENS MARJORIE SWEET RICHARD SWETLAND Gee! Another blonde. Who said that blondes are supposed to l e dumb? Maybe some are, but not Marge. How does she manage to keep up with that bookkeeping? She can also make her fingers fly on a typewriter. Marjorie possesses one of the nicest personalities in the class, and she will always give help whenever she can. There is no doubt as to the success she will gain. Dick is our senior high school president, and, with all his splendid attributes, it’s no wonder. Besides being an able football and baseball player, he leads his own dance band, in which lie plays the trumpet. Dick taxies his friends to and from school in his 1929 Willys, and is generous in many other ways. He has chosen music for his career, and his talent should take him far. Marge r 3H Zeke Jan Bruce Did you ever hear of the “Five J’s?” Janice is one of them, the last one of the Jive Terrys to graduate from Athens High. She'll go on to college to emerge a first class Math teacher. She’ll be one of the best, we know, because she's one of the brightest students of ’47. P.S.—We still can’t see how she did it—that research theme —nineteen hundred words in six days. Blonde hair and blue eyes plus a certain junior girl times a hearty laugh minus conceit equals Allen, that very capable president of our junior year. We all claim Allen a class favorite; for where else can one find personality plus leadership, good looks, and wit all rolled into one? Sure, and he’s an Ag wizard, too. There temains no doubt in our minds that this lad will be successful in life. JANICE TERRY ALLEN TWIGG BARBARA UTTER FRED VOX WOLFFRADT Blue eyes, that always seem to tell exactly how she feels, a charming smile and dimples make up our Barb. Her favorite pastimes are bowling, hiking and riding in a car. Another favorite pastime of hers is talking about that “certain guy” from Sayre, and talking about him always seems to add a twinkle to her eyes. We are sure that Barbara will find happiness in life because of her consistent determination to get ahead. We’ll often think of Freddie, the efficient manager of the football and basketball teams of ’47, as we so frequently saw him dashing from locker room to court “togged out” in his white sweater with the blue letter on the front. An accomplished musician (Fred played in the national F. F. A. band at Kansas City this fall), the receiver of the coveted Keystone Award, Fred already puts his knowledge of agriculture to practical use on his father’s large farm. r 32] Barb Freddie Don Honey Don, a lcttemian in both football and basketball. is one of the higher ups of the class. By that we mean lie’s a big six foot boy. Don has one of the finest voices in our class, and we all like to hear him “croon.” On the basketball court he’s a picture of gracefulness and precise timing. Keep up the skillful handling of ail your talents, Don, and you’ll need no good wishes at all. DONALD WALKER Here’s one of the class’s most talented writers, although that trait is not too often betrayed by her manner, which is a very quiet one until you get to know her well. We shall all remember her capable handling of the part of the very funny maid in our Junior Play. Her rare talent will certainly send her zooming high on the road to success, with all of her class’s best wishes trailing after . . . HELEN WAN DELL CHARLES WEBSTER DONALD WHEELER The Prince Charming of 1947. Yes, that is Charlie. Black curly hair, handsome face, and a nice personality. Need we say more?? Brewster is also a very efficient carpenter. What an ideal combination! Slow to anger and easy to get along with is Charles. He likes to tease, but never in a mean way. We know he will make a fine carpenter and hope he builds many houses for us. Don is a friendly, gixxl-natured guy, whose loud, booming laugh is known to all. He has many interesting hobbies, one of which is a radio he and his brother made themselves. Don is an able scout leader, and many weekends he goes out camping, hiking, or riding with the boys. He is an active church member, and teaches Sunday School class. No wonder Don is a favorite with boys of all ages. [33] Brewster Don Fran Jo Fran is the other half of our noted “Wheeler twins.” He has an easy laugh, is inclined to tease sometimes, but is really a grand fellow. He is industrious and full of life. In school you can usually find him teasing some girl (probably Louise Mullen in home room) or slaving over his mechanical drawing. He’ll carry a girl’s books to school like the perfect gentleman— which, of course, he is. FRANCIS WHEELER Jo is noted for her dark, “easy on the eyes” features. The far away look in her eyes reveals that she is forever dreaming of that “wonderful Waverly guy.’’ Jo is always in the midst of fun and merriment. Her snappy strutting as drum majorette and her sunny disposition prove that she is one who is rarely sad or downhearted. We know that only the best lies ahead for our Jo. JOYCE WILDRICK —■ JANICE WOOD BURTON WRIGHT Our Jan is neat, attractive, and very well-groomed. Her eyes are extremely lovely, and they go well with her manner, which is one of friendliness to each and all. She takes a commercial course and is Mrs. Alger’s most efficient secretary. What is it you like about that red 1923 Ford, Janice? Could it be the operator? No matter what you decide to undertake, we know you will succeed because of your grand personality. Burt always seems to be in a hurry. We wonder where lie is going, but no matter how busy he is, he always has time for a certain senior girl. Burton’s well-groomed appearance and friendly smile have gained him many friends. His aim in life is to Ik a major league baseball star and we are sure that with his vigorous ambition to “get up an’ go” he will be pitching the best of them out on every base. r 34 j Burt AMONG MY SOUVENIRS Hoiv? Do you remember: How those six weeks English tests always came the morning after the night before ? How diligently we rehearsed for the minstrel show? And what a big success it really was? How crowded Kike's was after all the basketball games? How wonderful our Junior Prom was after all the work we put forth on it? How all the sophomore girls fell for those handsome senior boys? How swell the play, ‘‘Every Family Has One” was? How we dreamed of being seniors and then wished we were back in junior high when we finally reached the goal ? How the boys formed those horrible stag lines at all the dances while the girls wilted against the walls? How freely the typists—Marj Sweet, Doris Hunsinger, Hetty Cordner. Sarah Rogers, and Joyce Wildrick gave of their time to help make our yearbook a success? How many good times we seniors really have had ? We wonder: Why someone always came out with a facetious remark when everyone else in the assembly or classroom was soooo quiet ? Why the antics of those incomparable endinen were so unpredictable? Why there were so many dejected expressions on our faces as a direct result of those lovely physics tests? Why it took those senior boys so long to start “Bean’s Bus” when they were sent overtown after it? Why our senior pictures, name cards, and especially the whole year went so fast? F 35 J AMS Class History Before leaving the halls of old A. H. S. we, the class of ’47, would like to reminisce. In 1944 we timid, shy sophomores started our climb. We were welcomed into the upper group by the traditional sophomore welcoming dance but this was only the beginning of our good times. The boys and girls of our class were well represented in the highlights when the boys placed second in the annual track meet and two of the girls became cheerleaders. The biggest thrill of the year was choosing our class rings. We ended our sophomore year by assuming the privilege of decorating for Baccalaureate services. JUNIORS—One step higher. Every year a junior boy is chosen to fill the vice-president’s vacancy in the Student Council. Our choice for the position was Richard Swetland. In March we presented our junior play entitled “Every Family Has One.” It was a tremendous success. To add to all the fun and excitement we finished the year with the Junior-Senior Prom. The to] ! We are SENIORS! The excitement of being seniors really began with the arrival of class pictures and calling cards. Then it was time to start to work on our minstrel show scheduled for February. To end a wonderful high school career we had our senior play, Baccalaureate and Commencement services. Now it is over. It is our turn to look toward the future. As we are leaving for the last time we look back at our old Alma Mater with many happy memories and fond regrets. { 36 ] Auction of Senior Traits Ardith Mclntire’s bashfulness going, going, gone to Phyllis Allen.

Before then you had seemed to be like any ordinary group of school kids, but your progress during the six years of junior and senior high school which you are now completing has impressed me greatly. My reason for writing to you is that I have a bit of information concerning your class which I would like to pass on to you. In my office hangs a portrait of your class. As I was studying this portrait the other day its features began to fade away into a brilliantly hued swirl of colors and the portrait seemed to swallow me up. The colors began to take definite forms and I found myself on the main street of Athens. As I walked down the street I came to a recently constructed building which proved to be the New Athens Academy. Entering this building. I met Burton Wright, founder of the academy, who took me on an interesting tour of the classes. First we visited Janice Terry's advanced algebra class, and. after visiting for a few moments, we went on to the rest of the classes. Wendell Hammond was teaching a large class in pastel and oil painting; Rollin Huntington. Thomas Mitchell, and Raymond Shaffer, industrial arts, mechanical and diesel engineering. instructors respectively, had joined classes for the showing of a new film. A biology class was enjoying a lesson in entomology as taught by Shirley Munn: June Dunning’s language class was busy taking one of her tests, and Betty Black, the elementary grade teacher, was correcting homework. r js l After leaving the Academy we came to Don Walker’s local hospital. Emily Adams, Mabel Corl, Rita Coveney, Barbara Dunbar, Louise Mullen, Betty Phelps, and Joyce Rogers were just returning to their nursing duties after a short rest period. After visiting Joanne Hopkins, the hospital’s psychology specialist, we went to the telephone exchange to see Betty Cordner. Harriette Maslin, Norma Parks, Barbara Utter, and Doris Hunsinger who were employed there. Jean Arnold, the exchange secretary, was away on a vacation and Marjorie Sweet was taking her place. Upon leaving we met Janice Wood and l.ucilie Parmenter on their way to interview Donna Powers, noted authoress, for the local newspaper. Rita Beers. Marjorie Bidlack, and Joyce Wildrick. the town beauticians, were trying to decide who were to be the speakers at the next Topic of The Month Gub meeting. They finally chose Mary Ann Raulerson and Leona Rolls, foreign diplomats, to speak this month, and Edward Molyneaux and Helen WanDell, returned missionaries, were chosen to speak next month. As we moved along we came to a machine shop where Robert Bidlack, Charles Smith, Donald Wheeler. Jack Harding, and Bill Crawford were working. Beside this shop was Robert Patton’s laundry and across the street was a dairy where we met Harold Ammerman. Dick Huff, Stanley Jacklin, and Fred von-Wolffradt, who were bringing milk to the dairy. We went on until we came to a hotel where we were welcomed by Shirley Grindey, Louise Havens, and Norma Isbell, the hotel hostesses. Upon leaving the hotel we met Herbert Halstead, number one rodeo star of America. We then went to the airport where Francis Wheeler. Harry Patterson, and Sarah Rogers were employed as pilots. Sarah took us for a ride in an airplane. I became dizzy, and, when my head cleared. I found myself back in my office. Thank you for being such good listeners. Yours trulv. David L.

Milton Junior Class History Junior Class Officers Standiiui—Donald Sumner, Gloria Dupuis Seated—John Macafee, Janice Twigg Stop a minute on your way through the Athenian and feast your eyes on the junior class. In the first grade senior high seemed very far away, but we made it. Now we are one step from the top and getting ready to take that step with the belief that this class is one of the best. What makes a good class is hard to define. You’ll find all types of students from all types of homes—the country and the city—farmer boy and errand boy. There are a few in our class who interrupted their lives to fight a war. We find athletes and bookworms together to make our class great. Each year the junior class sponsors two things: the prom to honor the seniors and the annual junior class play. Since the prom is put on to honor the seniors it must be an elaborate affair. Soft lights and dreamy music are traditional. Seniors, you shall not be disappointed. The junior play usually runs to comedy, and, since there have been quite a few preceding ours, it is going to have to be the funniest yet. It takes sportsmanship, scholastic ability, and willingness to co-operate to make a class function, and we have all of that and more. In my estimation the class of 1948 is going to be the best of any to come. f 44 1 Juniors Top Roto—Blair DuBois, Richard Harrigan, Richard Bean. Fred Klsbree, Kenneth Nichols, Leon Fice.

This we realize is a challenge to make our mark in the new world. As the boys and girls in 1917 set forth in a new way of living, so do we. Then the United States was just entering the 1st World War. The “Barrel dress, “Castle Walk,” and the “Bunny Hug” were all the rage. This important year, also, marked the opening of the new Athens High School. It was rebuilt after the original structure was burned and studies were resumed once more in its halls. Today we too, are entering a new phase, the Atomic Era, which we sincerely hope will be an era of peace and prosperity. To meet the responsibilities connected with entering this phase, we, the sophomore class, have tried to learn much during this past school year. But even school with all its studies has a lighter side. To start the school year off right, a Sophomore Welcoming Dance was given us by our upperclassmen at which we were the guests of honor. Next, as our first duty in senior high, we elected the class officers and student council members. Finally, the extra activities and clubs which we were eligible to join rounded out our very full schedule. We have greatly enjoyed this our first year in senior high and look forward to the future here in the halls of our Alma Mater. H6I Sophomores Top Rote—Anson Bidlack.

The club stands for the all around development of its members: “Spirit, Mind and Body.” The objective of the members of this club is “To Seek. To Find, To Share,” their slogan is “Pure Thoughts, Pure W ords, Pure Actions.” The club colors are “Red, White, and Blue” which stand for “Sacrifice, Purity, and Loyalty.” The movement of the Tri-Hi-Y Club was fed erated on March 15, 1930, and since that time has grown until there are at the present time approximately five hundred clubs with an enrollment of at least twenty-five hundred. The emblem of the Tri-Hi-Y is a red and white triangle, circle, and torch. Hi-Y The Hi-Y Club for boys is similar to the Tri-Hi-Y Club for girls in as much as it is for the same purpose and has the same club colors, slogan and objective. The Hi-Y Club was started in Buffalo, N. Y. in 1869. and, strange as it may seem, by a woman, Miss Kllen Brown. She was employed for seventeen_years as superintendent. The emblem of the Hi-Y is a blue and red triangle and a white cross. The white cross in the center of the design stands for sacrifice and development of “Spirit, Mind and Body.” These clubs present plays and sponsor dances during the year and have banquets with out of town guests to get acquainted with the young people of other towns.

Although there is some evidence of an earlier French Club in the past, there is no record of their meetings or activities. Miss Leutner, however, started the first Spanish Club in Athens High School. During the year the French Club has many activities which are presented for the students of junior and senior high school. This year the French Club had a Christmas dinner at O’Brien’s Diner on the Hill, which was enjoyed by all. They also presented for the junior and senior high school the movie “Swiss Family Robinson,” for the purpose of raising money for French Club pins. The French club has its meetings the first Friday of every month with the president, June Dunning, presiding. The other officers are: ice President, Charlotte Parks: Secretary, Priscilla Powers, and Treasurer, Dick Lesh. The Spanish Club has its meeting the first Monday of every month during class period. The meeting is conducted by the president, Donald Sumner. The other officers are: Vice President, Mary Ann Raulerson; Secretary, Janice Twigg, and Treasurer, Geraldine Wright. The Spanish Club had a Christmas party, and they also had a dance in March.

Seated—Mrs. McDonald, Louise Havens, Betty Cordner, Harriette Maslin, Mary Rae, Shirley Grimley, Shirley Munn, Janice Wood. When the Domecon Club first started there were very few members. Each had to earn a hundred points and have one year of Home Ec. As years passed the club increased in size. The girls learned the parts of homemaking of most interest to them. The purpose was mainly as a social organization; however, each year the club leaves a gift to the school, such as the movie screen in the auditorium or the contents of the file in the Home Economics Department. This year the Domecon Club joined the F. H. A. or the national organization known as the Future Homemakers of America. The Future Homemakers of America brings together groups interested in and working toward better homes and family living. The F. H. A. is a non-profit youth organization. It has an emblem that is octagonal in shape and bears the name of the organization. The colors are red and white and the flower is the red rose. As a motto we have “Toward New Horizons.” Our local club has, for a number of years, served at the football games, the annual dance, and helped with the annual exhibit.

The Future Farmers of America, better known as the F. F. A., is a national organization composed solely of farm boys studying vocational agriculture. Its major purposes are to develop agriculture leadership, cooperation, citizenship and patriotism. The national organization includes chartered state associations composed of local chapters in the high schools. The Athens Chapter of the F. F. A. was formed in 1935 and has won many state and national honors. Several of our local boys have been awarded the Keystone Farmers degree, in past years, for outstanding achievements in vocational agriculture. Two of these lads have also been honored by receiving the American Farmers degree at Kansas City. This year Herbert Halstead, a member of our local chapter, won the coveted Keystone Farmers Degree, and another member. Fred vonWolffradt. journeyed to Kansas City to play at the national convention with the Pennsylvania State Band. The local chapter was well represented at the state farm show this year, with many members attending. The group made the two day trip in cars, lodging overnight at the capital. The chapter also sponsored its annual F. F. A. dance in October, the hop” being a huge success. We sincerely believe that the members of the F. F. A. in Athens High School are receiving training now that will be of real value to them in later life and will contribute to their worth as citizens of this great nation. f 59} Thespian Club Standing—Doris Cook, Bernarr Shannon, George Rose, Vance Hinkson, Kenneth Huntington, Jack Wadsworth.

At this time it was called The Thespianettes and was a club of the ninth grade. The first play given by the club was “The Ghost of the Freshmen. ' The play was under the direction of Miss Jane Rita Coughlin and Mrs. Shroat. A few years later this club was discontinued. In 1945 the club was revived. The name given it was The Thespian Club. It was organized under the careful supervision of Miss Bean and Miss Cooper. This club always consists of sophomores, who in their first year organized a con stitution. Under this they have given us three years of joyous entertainment. We wish to extend our congratulations for the fine performance given this year. The play, “Lettv’s Christmas Protege, proved to be very entertaining for all the upper classmen, and we know they will continue to do fine work. To The Thespian Club we would like to offer this wish : Many more prosperous and play-filled years to come. [60] Q. A. C. Top Row—Jean Arnold.

Thirty years ago there were not so many activities for girls as there are now. It was harder to get points then, but they didn’t have to have so many. The G. A. C. is a very popular club among the girls of the senior high. We all try to have our required amount of points and even more if possible. We all work hard to receive one of the letters given by the Girls Athletic Club. We earn points by bike riding, skating, hiking, bowling and participating in the activity games in school. The club has many social activities to raise money to buy blouses and suits for the cheerleaders, and to raise money to buy the letters. In this club the girls learn how to play many games, how to referee games, and how to apply the principles of good sportsmanship. Officers for this year are: President, Marie Fairbanks; Secretary, Gloria DuPuis; Point Secretary. Emily Adams; Council Members, Rita Coveney, Doris Ann Cook. Peggy Bourdette. Priscilla Powers, and Jean Johnson. r 6i ] Thrift Club Top Koto—Florence Dunbar, Joanne Tracy, Marion Hinkson, Faith Gallagher, June Canavan, Joan Palmer, Jean Shepps. First Row—William Thompson, Donald Johnson, David Arnold, Richard Tracy, Keith Horton, Jack Mason, Thomas Crawford, Paul Helfigcr. The Thrift Club was organized seven years ago, although the banking system was introduced in Athens Schools in 1928. Qualifications for membership in this club are honesty, accuracy, neatness, courtesy, perseverance and cooperation. Each year the Thrift Club is reorganized and new members are voted into the club under the supervision of Miss Katherine Smith, junior high school instructor. Hank Day is held every Tuesday in the main building. At the beginning of Activity Period, all junior high doors fly open and students rush out, jingling pennies, nickles, and dimes. The Thrift Club members, who act as cashiers, greet them with a smile although cashiers, like other normal people, have their pet-peeves. For instance, there is Mr. Jingle, who always banks the remainder of his piggy-bank. Not only does he like to hear copper jingle in pockets, but it does him good to see the cashier count and recount every penny. Oh. let us not forget Mr. Humor, he is certainly a card, or so he thinks. He waves a dollar bill in front of a cashier’s nose and then decides to bank fifty-cents. After this has been recorded on the bank book he gives you a quarter. No Tuesday would be complete without Mr. Good. If any of his classmen are busy or in a hurry, he does his good-deed and approaches the cashier with a dozen bank books and a hand full of money. “Put ten-cents on this book, twenty-five on that, and a dollar on this. No twenty-five on this and a dollar on that.” Mr. Good’s heart is in the right place, but what a confusing line he gives you. These are just a few of the “Hank-Day Blues,” but what Thrift Club member would refuse a chance to act as cashier? The officers for 1946-1947 are David Arnold. President; Florence Dunbar, Vice-President; and Faith Gallagher. Secretary. The primary aim of this club is the desire of the members to obtain a saving habit during their school career. [62] 1.

The Rhythm Band f 63 J Music, when soft voices die, Vibrates in the memory; . . . Shelley [64] Music Perhaps the greatest historical background we have for our music, is the fact that Stephen Foster attended school here as a boy. There is no doubt that the boys and girls then had a musical interest that has grown from that time until now, and explains why music in Athens High is as old as the school itself. Ever since the school was first built, we have had a musical organization of some sort. The earliest ones were chorus and orchestra. Every year the chorus put on an operetta and the orchestra furnished accompaniment. For many years this was the extent of our music, until a growing interest developed into a number of musical groups which we have today. In junior high, we have the 7th Grade Hoys’ Chorus, which Miss Wood, our able music teacher, started in 1944. For the junior high girls there is Serenaders which was organized in 1939 for a selected group of about 20 girls. There is also Junior High Girls’ Chorus. As we go to senior high we have the Mixed Chorus which was organized in 1944. This is the group of boys and girls who put on our operetta in 1945. For girls only there is Senior Girls and Triple Trio. All of these choruses in both junior and senior high participate in activities and entertainment through out the year. In 1938 our first band under the direction of Mr. Coccagnia was organized. This organization has been continued ever since. The size of the band has varied through the years, but, as members graduate, we always have others who work into their places. Our band gives a concert every year and plays at our football games. We also have an orchestra which furnishes music for many of our assembly programs. This is the extent of our music for the present day. and it is much larger than our beginning. We know that it is not the entire extent of our music to be though, for we find music one of our biggest and most progressive interests. r 661 Triple Trio Joanne Hopkins, Emily Adams, Donna Powers, Phyllis Stevens, Phyllis Allen, Joyce Rogers, Barbara Truesdale, Betty Black, Accompanist, Arlene DuBois.

It's also the time to forget how softly we can speak and it’s the time to yell and to yell just as loudly as we know how. Who is it that brings this spirit into our school ? It’s the cheerleaders, that fine group of girls with all the spirit that is needed to keep our students, including the members of our team, in high spirits. Our cheerleaders have done excellent work this year. Many new cheers were used and even a new high school song became popular. We know our cheerleaders as girls who were able to keep their loyalty to their school in defeat and in victory. They didn’t lose their spirit when we lost a game but kept right on cheering, possibly even louder than before. The cheerleaders conducted many “pep meetings” in assembly. They also sponsored a dance honoring the football squad. This was one of the most outstanding and most largely attended dances of the year. We all had a wonderful time. We can feel very proud to have a group of cheerleaders such as we have had this year and are sure that we will have just as good a group in the coming years, and so we close by saying: Cheer! Cheer! To the Cheerleaders Of Athens High. [761 Pigskin Chasers Standing—Francis Storclli, Jack Lantz.

The idea behind it was to encourage the boys to keep the training rules and to promote school spirit. At the time it was begun, any person who participated in sports—basketball, football, baseball, or track—and received a letter was eligible to join the club. There was no initiation so any letterman could join. This club proved itself a success because, today, there is still a “Pigskin Chasers” in our school and it has changed but very little. It is still for all lettermen but today they have to go through a stiff initiation before they can become members. This initiation is conducted by the members of the organization, and they really make things tough for the newcomers. The new members are glad when the doings are over, for that day is a very strenuous one. They have to dress as girls and all day long they are subject to various tortures. There are many phases to the initiation, but the important fact is that the club remains one of the finest in our school.
