We will not forget the memories Of the years we spent with thee; Though we can remain no longer Our thoughts stay eternally. And now the halls will be hushed; But our hearts will ever grieve For the familiar sights and sounds That now we sadly leave. To the sacred halls of Bethel High Where we lived and learned so well, With hearts of love and sorrow Every voice bids F-A-R-E-W-E-L-L. Shelby Jean Anders

Class Ptophecy I had been working as a special investigator for theF.B. I. for nine years and now I was taking my annual month ' s vacation. I decided that as an extra treat this year, I would visit my old classmates. It had been four or maybe five years since I had seen KAY ROGERSON. Wondering if she still was private secretary for the Secretary of State, I went around to see her. She was still working there. Kay told me that LAUREL THIGPEN was doing very well as both a lawyer and a mother to two children, a boy and a girl. She also told me that both JOSEPHINE BUTLER and ELIZABETH BUTLER were doing very well as secretaries to very important people. It was time for Kay ' s vacation so we went to Los Angeles, California, to visitOLIVIA WHITEHURST who was doing very well for herself as a mother and a business woman. We found out from Olivia that both SHELBY JEAN ANDERS and KENNETH GRAY were also in California. Shelby Jean was a second grade teacher in a large elementary school. Kenneth was a lieutenant in the Air Force. We went to the air base to see Kenneth and he told us that both JUDI CULLIFER and PATRICIA CARSON were elementary school teachers in Washington, D. C. It surprised us because we had thought that they were in Kansas City. Kay had only two weeks vacation so she had to go back to work. I went to the airport to see her off. A flight from Florida came in and guess who the first one that came off the plane was? You are right; it was DOUGLAS CHESSON. We managed to get to him and talk to him before Kay ' s plane left. He told us that he owned a big sugar plantation in Cuba. Douglas told us that JIMMY HARDY and JACK WHICHARDwere both doing very well in their professions. Jimmy was a big restaurant owner who raised his own cattle for use in the restaurant. Jack was a very well-to-do farmer in Pitt County. Kay had to leave to catch her plane, so we sent her off. Douglas and I went to see Shelby Jean. She told us that the last letter she had gotten from BETTY COOPER said that she was working as a laboratory technician in a big hospital in Philadelphia. The next day I left California for Philadelphia to visit Betty. Betty was living in a beautiful little home in the suburbs of Philadelphia. She told me that ANN MOZINGO was working in Raleigh, North Carolina, as a kindergarten teacher. I went to Raleigh to see Ann. Not only was she a working woman, but she was also the mother of two handsome little boys and one pretty little girl. Suddenly I decided to go back to dear old Bethel to see how much it had grown. It had grown a good deal since I had last seen it. I visited LINDA PURVIS in her beautiful little home and met her two children, a boy and a girl. While there I visited FRANKLIN WHITEHURST, who was doing very well as an automobile salesman. My vacation ended, so I had to go back to Washington to my job. DOROTHY LOUISE BLAND Class Prophetess 15
