The year of work, fun, sadness, farewells, anticipation, exams, shining eyes and a sense of getting the job done at last. We began this year with all these things in mind. Our first major job was a sale of magazines in cooperation with the Junior Class. By working hard and by the help of many friends we sold some for a small profit. Grace Peters and Jane Thomas worked very hard. There were others who passed the 25 dollar mark and received citations from the publishing company. It was a SeniOr girl who first suggested a Hemecoming Day for Bells. Plans were made by the faculty and things began to roll. The Senior Class sold barbecue at this time. There was some profit here to add to the Senior treasury. Above all, this was a new step for our school. Candy? Did you taste it? It' came high in cost and calories but gee! it Was good. Yes - and a little pron fit here. Most of the money went back to the candy company, however. It was yummy! The Juniors sponsored the annual Harvest Carnival. Here we were again! More barbecue, cakes and pies! Delicious - Uh! Huh! Yes, a little more profit. Our committees, both boys and girls, worked very hard. Both Junior and Senior classes were rewarded for their efforts. Christmas rolled around. The Seniors sponsored the Miss Bells High Contest. Girls, dresses, decorations. We won't forget it. Thanks for the dollars! Senior Follies! Most rewarding work of 9.11. Senior Superlatives! Elsewhere in the Annual you have found out the results on that. Though we had to choose we are just canceited enough to think that, as a group, we are superlative. High school rings and pins! All who received them were thrilled. Books, tests, exams and grades were all forgotten for awhile. Most of us grew two inches taller after we put them on. Paul forgot to laugh! Invitation Day arrivedt Just to think about the graduation date was fun but, when we got the invitations, there it all was in black and white. It was, of course, a thrill to address them all. Many of us traded cards and pasted invitations in scrapbooks for the future. Annuals! Here we saw Ourselves pictured as Seniors. We realized Clearly once again that this really was our Senior Year. Ann and Ginger were very happy. Our last Iunior-Senior at Bells as students, anyway! Thanks to the Junior class and the sponsors who made this one possible for us. The minutes were all too short. So soon, like Cinderella, we had to leave the fun and glamour and come back to the last grind. Graduation! Proud moms and pops! For some - proud husbands. Class Day exercises! Unless you lived with us those last few days, you can'tiknow of the anxiety and tension that finally gave way to sighs of re- lief and a sense of being On top of the world. Ask Mrs. Hightower, Mrs. Peters, and Mr. Roberts who lived with us and answered our questions. May 31, 1959 - So soon? A look at the calendar proves it. 180 days - Around the School in 180 Days. 1959 - We are yours - Page Fourieen anions 7 euiewecl pad LINNIE RUTH BAZZLE Linnie Ruth SHIRLEY ANN BELL Cookie ANITA JOYCE BARNES Joyce SARA ANN BARNES Sara Ann WILLIE EDNA BELL Edna SYBIL LOUISE BENNETT Sybil Page Fifteen ear 31'ng BARBE C UE SUPPERS BE CAME EXPERT AGATHA BRENDA BENTON ALENE ELIZABETH BISHOP Gatha Elizabeth REBECCA RUTH BRELAN D Be Cky NANCY ANN CHASSEREAU Nancy DELENO CONNELLY Delano STEPHEN LEROY COOPER ll Steve II Page Sixteen WtA projectd SENIOR FOLLIES CANDY SALESMAN RONALD FRANCHOT DuBOISE JERRY LAVERN FISK Franchie Jerry ' SHELBA JEAN FRALIX Shelba Jean BOBBY RAY GARRIS Bobby DENNIS MICHAEL GOHAGAN Dannie MARY JO GRIFFEN Mary Jo Page Seventeen MISS BELLS EDGAR HIERS, JR.

This year the Green and Gold Re- viewH added another rung to the ladder of high criteria which it has tried to maintain. It has grown in size and content while it has continued to im- prove. The Green and Gold Review staff, With the help of class and club re- porters, published a mimeographed paper once every six weeks. The Green and Gold ReviewH has been the voice of the students . It has encouraged originality, independent thinking, creative writing and freedom on the part of the student body to ex- press their ideas and opinions on mat- ters concerning our school. We have not been members of the South Carolina Press Association yet, but we have planned for that next year; thus, adding another rung to our ladder.

No one knew what it meant to play in a hand though many of us had dreamed about it. You should have heard us. Even to blow one note was an effort. Im- provement came but oh! so slowly. We surely had a lot to learn. During the next two years some members graduated. Others dropped out. In the 1958-59 school year, we have had 32 members and have made fifteen appearances. Last summer there. were six who attended the Band Clinic at Clemson College. While there they learned a number of things but most of all they learned to march. During the year the band members have practiced marching. Again we have made steady improvement. We were proud to say we had learned three hundred pieces of music. Looking forward to the next school year is more pleasant because of our band and its director. gain! A05! 32 mgmherd Page ForiyeFIve PRIVATE MUSEC STUDENTS ORGANIZED MUSIC CLUB LEFT T0 RIGHT: A.
