My name is McGunegill; I am here to be the mouthpiece tor the ’53 Scarab staff—to tell you about the school year of 1952-53. Here is a shot of the Benton Consolidated High School. Do you remember this was the year of 745 enrollment; the year that all the girls wore white bucks and practically scaljK-d themselves. Then what was left they dyed; the year that the excitement over the basketball team reached a long, long awaited new high; the year the Hangers’ football team beat Frankfort 27 to 0: the year there were 2 lunch periods and such wonderful food was served in the cafeteria; the year that the whole interior of the building was redecorated so magnificently—the gym, too; the year that we all had the opportunity to see a Presidential inauguration on TV. 131
