SENIOR CLASS HISTORY In the year nineteen hundred thirty-six, a line of fifty-eight meek and bashful students entered the portals of B. T. H. S. We elected James Raglan, president; George Loudenback, vice-president, and Scotty Wilkinson, secretary and treasurer. As sophomores, we elected the following officers: Scotty Wilkinson, president; Barney Slevin, vice-president, and Warren Hendrix, secretary and treasurer. During our junior year we gave a class play, “Oh Susan.” In return for a party given by the seniors, we gave them a Carnival Banquet. This year our class officers were Bud Warner, president; Marie Hampton, vice-president, and James Raglan, secretary and treasurer. At last we reached the summit. Our activities were directed by Barney Slevin, president; Ralph Rose, vice-president, and Mary Belle Lefever, secretary and treasurer. We also presented another play this year. We enjoyed the usual parties and banquet. Our class was well represented all four years in the various school activities—sports, music, clubs, dramatics, and social affairs. Now we must part, each one to develop his own vocation to the fullest extent, but never forgetting his delightful days spent in old BETOHI.
