Text from Pages 1 - 72 of the 1953 volume:

Dedication We, the graduating class of 1953, dedicate this, our annual, to our principal, Bruce E. Tarkington. Although he has been with us only a short while, ne has already proved to be a dear friend and advisor. He has given us a greater pride in our school and we feel that, in future years, we will be able to claim it without hesitation; knowing, that under his leadership, it is still the same fine school we knew and loved. Principal's Message I am thankful for this opportunity to express to the patrons, students and faculty of Beaufort Graded School my sincere thanks for making my first year as your principal such a memorable one. To the class of ’53, who have served their school so faithfully through the years, my charge to you is to continue your habit of service. Our nation!s success depends on you and the many other graduates who are leaving our public schools this year. You have the opportunity to bring even greater glory to your school now by the contributions you make to your fellow man. Remember it’s not the gale, but the set of the sail that determines the way we go . Set your course in life on worthwhile objectiv3S so that we can point with pride and say, Well done, Graduate of Beaufort High .

In 49, our freshman year in high school, the first limb blossomed. During the first week seventy-eight lowly freshmen wandered around the halls going in every room found open in an attempt to work out a required schedule in the room designated for that purpose. During this wandering period the Juniors, Seniors, and even the Sophomores laughed at us for being so green. However, we lived down the teasing of this and finally got down to work. The FHA initiation was the biggest thrill of the year. At the initiation we were required to wear tow bags and aprons, to carry cloths and dolls, and to clean the sidewalks with our toothbrushes. During this first year we participated in sports, FHA, and 4-H Club. We gave the seniors a hayride and wiener roast at the beach. Under the guidance of our homeroom teachers, Mrs. Beveridge and Mrs. Salter, we made our grades. Now the second limb on the tree has blossomed and seventy-one of us have started back to school. This year we were in the middle-one limb above the lowly freshmen and far below the lofty seniors. Glee Club, FHA and sports were our main interest. At the end of the year a hay- ride and wiener roast were again given to the seniors. The wind and sand helped in making our supper memorable. We actually ate more sand than food. Miss Collins and Mr. Hawkins, our homeroom teachers, helped us with our party. A third of the tree had now blossomed and the blooms were getting wiser and more beautiful. The chief topic of conversation from fifty-four of us this year was the Junior-Senior Banquet. We dreamed, talked, and thrilled at the mention of our theme, SNOWLAND PARADISE. Under the guidance of our sponsors, Mrs. Lawrence and Mr. McQuaid, our banquet was all we hoped it would be. We will always cherish memories of the gymnasium with the cold north wind blowing cold air, the penquin s land, the hugh polar bear dominating the scene, the northern lights, and artic scenes on the walls of the gymnasium. Too quickly we were nearing the top branch of our tree with the help of our home room teachers, Mrs. Floyd and Mr. McQuaid. The tree is in full bloom now, more beautiful and radiant than ever. By now the tree is wise with knowledge of worldly affairs and books. Fifty-two have finally reached our goal. This last part of our voyage is what we have been looking forward to with great anticipation. The Washington trip, Senior Play, annual and graduation are our important topics. This year the leaders of the clubs come from our class. The stars in all sports belong to us. Our privileges are few but very important to us. We feel honored to have the student body stand up on our • entering the auditorium. It is a wonderful feeling to walk in the front door and sit in the balcony. We are looking forward to the entertainment which will be given us because we are Seniors. Our tree has blossomed in all of its glory. Everyone admires it and we sadden at the thought that its blooms will drop at the approach of another senior class. Historian Barbara McKay Cast Will and ZestameHt Article I.

Phyllis Piner Testator Prophecy Since this was my first return to Beaufort after departing for Europe several days after graduation, I was eager to hear some news about my dear classmates of B.H.S. I remembered the local hangout” in 53 was Guthrie-Jones’ Drugstore. Hoping to meet someone I knew, I went there. I found out that Guthrie and Jones had sold out to Carol Jones and Ann Noe. I found Carol not too busy and she passed on to me the news of my former classmates. Corrine Scurlock was teaching dramatics at the new high school at Bogue Sound. Thelma Darling was married to James Taylor and was settled down in the new housing project, designed by Gordon Davis. Gordon, a well known contractor, also had a well known assistant, Bobby Smith. Carol told me that Phyllis Piner and Jean Taylor were heads of a fleet of crabbing boats on Neu e River. Lola Pratt had gone west to seek her fortune, had met up with Jackie Simpson, and together they were running a cucumber farm in Arizona. Billy Eudy was manager of the baseball team at Crab Point. It surprised me to learn that Jimmy Modlin was an evangelist preaching to thousands as he traveled up and down the country, accompanied by Beulah Eubanks, who is his piahist. Frank Gillikin was running the Carolina Hayride over WMBL. He also read the funnies on Sunday. Wallace Connor was head football coach at Notre Dame. He took the position after Roy Clemmens resigned to help Andy Mason hunt for gold in the Sahara Desert. Kay Lewis and Vickie Taylor went along to hold the camels while they looked. Ann Owens, Carol informed me, was starring in pictures out in Hollywood, billed as the new Marilyn Monroe. Bitsy Brooks and Ronnie Quidley had become well known as the star trapeze performers in Ringling Brothers Circus. Nellie Ward was also employed with Ringling Brothers as the sword swallower. Margaret Bryant and Christine Dunn were in Paris designing and modeling the latest fashions. Ted Spivey had just accepted the position as warden of Sing-Sing. The prison doctor was John- ny Betts. It was easy to imagine him scampering about here and there, all over Sing-Sing. Barbara Mc- Kay had moved to New York City, taking along her set of twins and triplets. Virginia Hill and Joan Gar- ner were missionaries in the dark continent of Africa. Joan Chipman, a noted scientist, went along with them to search for some rare gnats. Lewis Woodard and B. G. O’Neal were playing professional football in their spare time. They kept the children and house while their wives worked. Minnie Pake was a star of the Women Globe Trotters, a professional basketball team. Carol told me that the latest news was that William Longest was collector for the Bureau of Internal Revenue in Raleigh. It was rumored that he was after Clyde Bell for tax evasion. Fay Merrill was secretary to MoreheadCity’s mayor, Johnny Olund. Edwin Becton was busy touring the country with his famed trumpet and singer, Julia Kelly. Molly Hopkins was the new drivers license examiner in Beaufort. Her first act had been to move the parallel parking posts in front of the court house farther apart. Patsy Becton and Verna Carraway were co-owners of the Beaufort Cannery. Patsy Sadler and Jackie Dickinson had married army boys and were busy rushing from camp to camp with their brood of children. Gus Farlow was the chief justice of the Supreme Court in Washington. He had recently handed down several important decisions, Carol informed me. Joyce Mer- rill was taking pictures everywhere as she had bought out Eubanks and Shumacker. Elizabeth Woodard was head nurse at Morehead City Hospital. She came home with Peggy Dixon on weekends. Peggy worked with the welfare agency there. I really felt wonderful when I left the drugstore and started home. In ten short years, the class of '53 had really come a long way. I felt proud of their accomplishments. Some of the news, however, came as a complete surprise.

We no longer would be chided and called silly freshmen . This year we have won places in all the activities of our school. We boast ten basketball players, eight football players, five band members, and eleven glee club members. Although this year may have seemed dull to other classes, it has proved to be indeed a won- derful experience for the Sophomores of 53; a year which we will long remember and cherish. Our Junior year is looked forward to in highest anticipation by the members of our class. Our only hope is that our banquet can be as successful as those in the past. Truly this year has been one to remember. J.W.
