Text from Pages 1 - 204 of the 1950 volume:

Before the number of houses in Atlanta exceeded twenty, the old seminary building v as erected. This was in the early part of 1853. In February, 1855, the Atlanta Seminary was chartered, and Immediately after a school of higher order was opened. The first board of trustees consisted of five members who were given power to erect buildings, purchase land, appoint teachers, regulate the course of study, etc. The stockholders of the seminary were liable to one dollar tax on each share of stock in order to pay the school's debts. These shares were twenty dollars each and all those owning shares were entitled to one vote per share. In 1858, the board of trustees suggested that the school be .'laced under the control of the town, and in this way the interests of the town children would be better served. The school was thus conducted until 1869, when, at the organization of the city government, the school was also organized under the State School Law as a graded school. Measures were adopted to erect a larger building in 1870 when the old seminary building was unable to take care of the growing school population. While the new building was being constructed, the old building was removed to the corner of the lot. ... History The new building was three stories high above the basement and contained the school rooms, a large spacious hall, and a principal's office. A large town clock was placed on the top of the building , the strokes of which could be heard from any part of town. The entire cost, in -cl'iding the cloc:, which was ?e00, and the furniture--was '28,500. This school proved to be one of the best schools in the county. Misfortune struck on July 21, 1908 when an innocent brush fire burned this school house to the ground. Classes were resumed in different buildings fcout town, until the school, the present one was completed. In 1947, the consolidated district was formed. Country grade schools jdned with us at thst time. Then, in 1949 the governing boards 401 and 301 were joined and the Community Unit District 20 was organized. Building changes were slight until 1P49-50 when a cafeteria was added in what was once upon a time—the old gymnasium. A new bus garage was added to the North playground area. New locker rooms, offices, and drying rooms were built to accommodate the physical education department when the cafeteria took their former quarters. Board of Education On July 1, 1949, school boards Atlanta Community Consoli- dated District 301 and Atlanta Community High School District 401 were merged into the Atlanta Community District 20. These jictured were elected to serve as members of this board. Lr. Leland Dunham was elected president, and Mr. DeV.ltt Yeast was elected secretary by this board. Five of the members were formerly members of boards 301 and 401, Left to right: First row: Mr. Berlin Bateman; Mr. Neil Rice; Mr. Alec Hoblit. Second row: Mr. Paul Gordon; Dr. R. L.

Sentinel 12 3 4 4 1 2 1 2 2 No Picture •N In the early part of September, 1946, a crowd of bewildered and somewhat green freshman applied for admittance to A. C. H. S. Seeing the eager expressions on our faces and the excellent signs of a successful class the faculty agreed to accept us. At first we were hopelessly ignored by the upper-classmen; however, it wasn't long before they realized what an honor it was to have us included with their group. On the fourth day of September we met with Mr. Grant, our class sponsor, to elect our officers. Bob Brading was elected president; Marilyn Min-ick, vice-president; Alice Bickr.ell, secretary; and Jim Larson, treasurer. Two days later we had our first class party which turned out to be a weiner roast at Red Haw Hill. It proved to be a grand success with almost a perfect class attendance. Later in September, the seniors had a gay time frightening us in every way possible with their many brainstorms for imitation torture. All in all though, we had as much fun as they themselves. Among the other events of our first year of High School we entered a float in the Homecoming Parade. It portrayed a scene from the comic strip Blon-die and Dagwood and although we received no prize we had great fun in preparing it. We also had the satisfaction of sponsoring the most successful party of the year just before school closed. It was called the Spring Hop and everyone who attended agreed that it was a huge success. During the course of the year we were very sorry to lose Ruby Riddell, Dick Foster, Wayne Powell, and Eddie Elder. Next year in the fall of 1947, we assembled again to begin our soph-more year of schooling. The results of the election of officers this year were: Allyn Ijams, president; Betty Frantz, vice-president; and Lucille Leesman, secretary-treasurer. Mr. Grant remained our class sponsor. We decided on a hayrack ride for our first party and Morre's Mill as our destination. After an enjoyable evening of chase and tag garner we explored various country roads on the hayrack ending up in McLean for ice cream be- fore returning to Atlanta. We entered a very fine float in the Homecoming Parade this year and were very proud to be presented with first prize. Ihe float was entitled We're Laying For McLean and consisted of a large chicken and eggs, which we constructed after school hours, on a huge nest of hay. In our English classes we studied Moby Dick and many of us displayed projects of this novel in the study hall. In the latter part of March we sponsored another spring party which was well attended. We welcomed Wayne Powell back this year and were sorry to have Jim Larson, Donna McRoberts, and Betty Thompson leave our class. The following September we were quite proud and perhaps a little arrogant to enter A. C. H. S. as upper classmen. We tried hard to live up to the former standards of the Junior class and to act as intelligent as the honored seniors. At the class meeting, we chose Lynn Hieronymus to be our president; Lyle Martinie, vice-president; and Helen Mayberry, secretary-treasurer. A vote for another hayrack ride passed unanimously and it took place on the 24 of September. (The following day brought forth a sparkling ring on the finger of Barbara Frantz's left hand.) Early In October, we chose our class rings, after the traditional disputes of the class on decisions, and also chose a theme for our Homecoming float. Again we walked off with a prize, this time for displaying a scene of the housing shortage. On the 27th day of February we had Junior Play try-outs for a play to bo held on April 1. The name of the play was A Howling Success and it certainly lived up to its name. Lveryone in the class cooperated readily and had reat fun in rehearsing as well a s putting it on. This was our voar to sponsor the Junior and Senior Banquet and Prom and we tried hard to do as well as the former classes had done. Our theme was It i.ight As .Veil Ie Spring and the Christian Church, where the banquet was held, and the High School Gymnasium were beautifully decorated to carry out this theme. May 13 was selected for the dLte of this big event and everyone enjoyed it immensely. 7e lost 3ob Bradin , Cathryn Chrisman, Dean Harmon, and Ton Short from our enrollment this year. And finally as the autumn of 1950 rolled around, we entered V.C.H.S. for our last year of hirh school education. .Yitfc Mr. McCullough as our sponsor this veer, we elected the following class officers: Allyn Ijams, presicent; Stanley Swearinren, vice-president; and Marilyn Paulsen, secretary-treasurer. Among the many events we participated in thi3 -ear we’re especially proud by our representation on the basketball squt.d. Lorry Johnson, Stanley Swearingen, Gordon Kindred, Loren Cotton, Jim Cuisenberry, and Lynn Hieronymus dressed regularly for the varsity team. liow our four years of high school have been completed. Althou: our hearts are somewhat sod to see it draw to a close, we sincerely hope that these years of learning and experience will have bettered us for our bright future• The class of '50 now must go To greet their future oright.

Bob R., we know that you have a pig for an agriculture project, no U3e being bashful, tell the truth III.' I Quita, if you practice once in a while, you might be a basketball player. Fonda and Joan, we hear you have trouble finding men in Atlanta. Where are your headquarters, i-'cLe' n, Lincoln, or Bloomington?

Jim, v e hear you have a habit of telling your classmates how muddy the roads are after they get stuck. Junior, v e see you make quite a hit with the freshman girls, Ihy are they more fun than you classmates? Say ivelyn, why don't you tell us more about this O' Johnny. I-iary Jo, you shouldn't be jealous of Jo Ash, Cupid will surely pierce your heart if you keep getting A's in geometry. What's Hartsburg got that Atlanta hasn't go? Tell us her name, will you Wendell????'? Why don't you give the girls a break next year Bob Ellis? There are other things in this world besides sports. V e see Leonard that you have risen from a i-lodel to a Chevrolet, what's it going to be next, a Cadillac??? Doris Billington, was working in Lincoln the cause of thi s green Ford buzzing up and down toward Charlie Billingtons? You'll have to quiet down in Study Hall next year, Dorothy Bayles-after all, you will be a senior IM Elmer, if you don't quit being so mean in school you're liable to find yourself staying detention.

The boys wore short pants--at ove the knees--women s blouses , women's hose held up by garters below the knees, and mismated shoes. All being Initiated had to carry their books in a cloth sack and wear green beanies. Button-up was a command given by the Seniors which we learned to respect.

How We Looked Then ; 4 • How We Look Now We Work The annual Homecoming Day was held on Friday, September 30, featuring tne traditional events which included the parade, the ball game with Eeason, of which there was little mention later by Atlanta, and the dance in the evening. Starting off the parade was the band in their new and flashy red and white uniforms. Next in line came the grade school children in their unusual costumes. Following that came the floats--the F.H.A. float, The Old Woman Who Lived In The Shoe winning first prize; the Junior float, Trim Beason winning second prize; and the Freshman float, Beat The Meat Prices winning third prize. Something new this year was the Homecoming Queen. Five girls, Ann Ash, Alice Bicknell, Joan Schmidt, Marilyn Minick, and Jo Ash were chosen by the student body. The one receiving the highest number of votes was Ann Ash who was crowned Homecoming Queen by Lyle Martinie,president of the student council. The girls were chauffcured by Mrs. Joe Mount joy in their beautifully decorated convertible. The parade went through the business district and ther. proceeded to the park where the winners were awarded their prizes by Mrs. Nadine Warrick, president of the P.T.A. At three o'clock in the afternoon, Atlanta met Beason on the ball diamond and much to our disappointment we were defeated. At five thirty, there were suppers held at both the Methodist and Christian Churches. 3 i As a climax, in the evening there was a dance in the High School Gym with Larry Lonney and his orchestra playing. It, like all of the other events, was well attended. The 1949 Homecoming will well be remembered by all. the r. h . n. J umo $ FRSSM. S 0UEEM S OPH. AM BAUD F.F.n.
