GQSS jfsfory In the autumn of 1965 a lively, noisy group of freshmen started high school at Aurelian Springs. The boys had as their adviser, Mrs. Dorothy Greene. Her homeroom elected Jimmy Spencer as its Pres., Eddie as its Vice-Pres., June as its Sec., and Vince as Treas. The girls, adviser was Mrs. Mabel Liles. The girls elected Linda Williams as their Pres., Faye as Vice-Pres., Janice as Sec., and Laura as Treas. In the Student Council, the freshmen were represented by Jimmy who served as sergeant-at-arms and Sue and Charles who were representatives. In the area of sports, Jay, Glenn, Ann, and Diane all were on the cheerleaders' squad. Danny managed the boys' basketball team and Dwight played on the baseball team. Diane, Laura, Linda Williams, Carolyn, Faye, Sue, Linda Warren, and Shirley all played on the girls, basketball team. Martha served as its manager. The class moved into its sophomore year a little more reserved and less restless. The class was greatly enlarged due to the addition of a large number of students from the Haliwa School. As before, there were two homerooms. This time, however, the boys and girls were not split. Mrs. Mary Keeter served as adviser to one homeroom. Her class had Jimmy as its Pres., Sheila as its Vice-Pres., Caroll as its Sec., and Faye as Treas. The other homeroom was held by Mr. Donald Hines. Its officers were Emilie, Pres., June, Vice-Pres., Janice, Sec., and Arline, Treas. Both homerooms were well represented in the Student Council with Janice I. serving as Sec., and Carolyn, Sue, Allen, and Linda Williams serving as representatives. June, Tommy, and Jimmy played basketball while Glenn managed the team. Linda Williams, Shirley, Sue, Carolyn, Linda Warren, and Laura played major roles in piloting Aurelian Springs to its first tournament championship in many years. Jay, Ann, Diane, Mary, Nancy, and Emilie were cheerleaders. Charles, Glenn, Jimmy, Eddie, and Dwight did a good job on the baseball team. The class entered its junior year with hopes as high as the sky knowing that it was beginning to realize its goal of graduation. Again, there were two homerooms. Miss Betty Brewer presided over one. The officers of her homeroom were Nancy, Pres., Glenn, Vice-Pres., Laura, Sec., and Mary, Treas. Mrs. Delores Stainback was our other adviser. Her homeroom officers had as its Pres. Janice Inscoe, as Vice-Pres. Sue Butts, as Sec. Ann, and Faye as Treas. Janice was also Vice-Pres. of the Student Council with Kenny, Eddie, Janice Reynolds, and Linda Williams serving as representatives. Linda Warren, Sue, Laura, Carolyn, Linda Williams, and Shirley all played basketball. Shirley and Linda Williams were also co-captains of the team. Tommy and June played basketball on the boys' team. Nancy, Diane, Mary, Ann, and Arline were cheerleaders. Charles, Glenn, Eddie, Tommy, and Dwight all contributed heavily to a superlative baseball team. Jimmy C. managed the team. Near the end of the year, we all were thrilled by the Junior-Senior Prom which had December Holiday as its theme. We entered our senior year excited because we knew we were on the threshold of graduation. There are two homerooms with Mr. Wade and Miss Williams serving as our advisers. The Pres. of the senior class is June. Janice I. serves as Pres. of the Student Council. Tommy is playing basketball for the boys and Linda Warren, Shirley, Laura, Carolyn, Linda Williams and Sue are playing on the girls' team. Diane, Nancy, Mary, and Ann are cheerleaders. We are now nearing the end of our long trek through school. It is awe-inspiring to think that all the work, sweat, worries, joys and experiences of twelve long years will be culminated in a brief instant one night this spring. This is not an end though, but a beginning. It signals the start of our lives in the outside world. With luck, we shall attain our goals. Thus do I salute my classmates, 'gto each his own destiny. Farewell? ' dv-2763 62
