We live, we worK we love, we play, We fill each moment of the day. Dawn found us in our Freshman year. Each golden moment we treasured here. Like tender green plants we grew, Both in wisdom and in stature too. Morn, we'll call our Sophomore days. Carefree were we in all our ways. Unaware of the passing of time, We sailed through our school days sublime Noontime, we'll call our Junior year. School life was quite interesting here. Through all the year we tried and tried, To tame our ways and be dignified. Eve, our Senior year will represent. A dignified group it does present. Each one has begun to realize, The one who wins is he who tries. Our motto now we understand. They Conquer Who Believe They Can. Our parents we appreciate. Their efforts our ways will dictate. They have not striven long and taught Us all these things for naught. Many things they thought we ought to know, As on our way through life we'd go. Our teachers hold a spot so dear. Remember what they've taught each year. They've laid the stones of our foundation, So we'll take our place in the nation. Even though we'll soon be far apart, School days we'll treasure in our hearts. Many examples here have been set, Lessons taught, that we'll never forget. Written by Bonnie Smoot 9 au Senior Class Prophecy One day in 1962, while lookihg through my scrapbook and reminiscing I ran across some clippings which brought back many memories of my former classmates, During the ten years since graduation, Ihad collected some very interesting information about each of them, I knew when we were in school to- gether that we were a rather unusual group, These clippings prove that this knowledge was one hundred per cent correct, With your permission I shall read some of them to you. MOTHER OF 18 SWIMS ENGLISH CHANNEL On Friday, June Z, the former Miss Gladys Hawkins swam the English Channel, After much diligent training and a good application of grease she was able to break all previous records by swimming it in only eight hours, Her happy husband and eighteen children were there to greet her as she reach- ed the English shore, VISITS MT.

Freshman Initiation Did we look like that? Did we act that silly? Yes, that was the conversa- tion among the upperclassmen as we, the Freshrnan class came straggling into the halls of B, I-l, S, Wednesday, September 12, l95l, After everyone had pinched himself to make sure he was really awake, we knew that the poor green Freshrnen were practically doomed for the day, Initiation Day , Obeying the orders of our mighty superiors, the Sophomore class, we tremblingly came dressed in a wide variety.of clothing, Johnny Hawkins looked like Miss America with his pretty petite legs arrayed in shorts to display their loveliness, Ralph Oster with his skillet, made a picture of a typical home loving lady, His sunbonnet not only kept the sun from his eyes, but helped hide the tell tale blushes that crept ac ross his face from time to time, Wearing her housecoat and dad's shoe, Patsy Jones certainly appeared sleepy, Jackie Turner must have been even sleepier than Pat, He didn't manage to get his housecoat, He was still attired in his pretty pink pajamas, I-le carried his alarm clock to be sure he would wake up in time to leave class, Kathleen was surely wanting to work as she was dressed in work clothes, and carried rocks. Undoubtedly she was thinking of graveling roads, or could it have been a drive- way? Carl Wiseman, the sweet young thing, attracted the Senior boys, but after closer inspection it was revealed that it was only Carl dolled up in a dress and plenty of make-up, lVlyI Leona you were not that old, Did you really need a cane ? After all with your dress on wrong side out one can never tell, Boone Hawkins carried a bushel basket, a handy gadget for carrying all those upper- classm'en's books to and fro, When night came, blisters were plentiful on the boys' feet, having worn ihigh heeled shoes all day, At six o'clock the Sophomores took us over the last road of initiation before we could be admitted as full-fledged tigers and tigerettes, The road contained mud, cinders, tubs of water, and airplane rides, After receiving due punishment all were treated to a well earned and deserved meal, To end a hashed up day of fun, surprises, and misery all were escorted to Shelbyville to the show, Blondie's Secret , We are now proud and happy to be called full-fledged tigers and tigerettes of B, H.
