Class History Announcer: “Radio audience of Big Stone Gap. The Senior Class of 1933 now presents their last annual broadcast over station B. S. G. by Professor Killtime. I now introduce Professor Killtime.” “Hello, Students and Citizens of Big Stone Gap. I shall now present to you the last program sponsored by the Senior Class. “The real history of this class began when they were called ‘just school kids.’ No longer do they carry that name, because they are the ‘dignified Seniors.’ Those who have supported the membership through all the grades at Big Stone Gap are Bascom Barron, Howard Cummings, Robert Mumpower, James Whited, Georgia DeBord, Katheryne Gilley, Mildred Graham, Virginia Greene, Mary Hill, Lloyd Kelly, Helen Panned, Beuna Pennington, Margaret Showalter, Anne Witt, Berenice Qualls and Sara Morton. “As they have worked toward the end of their happy school days they have gained quite a few members. In the fifth grade James Bentley made a wise step by coming into their class. The real bang came in the sixth grade when Josh Cambios came into their class with his funny remarks and novel acts. They have also gained members who have meant a great deal to their room: as athletes, Alma Wilson, Hazel Lambert, and Lucille Slemp; as a farmer, Cecil Gibson; as a beauty expert, Elma Bailey; as a Latin shark. Pearl Compton; as a perpetual talker, Virginia Hemming; and as a representative from Appalachia, Nettie Edens. “While they were making new friends they were losing old ones. From their class they have lost this year, Nellie Mae Herron, Hope Brown, Mildred McCorkle and Nell Fletcher. “In their first school days there were found little fellows who were always talking athletics and slipping into the games. They don’t slip in any more, but walk in as dis- tinguished players. When ‘Corby’ Barron, ‘Spec’ Mumpower, ‘Kernal’ Whited and ‘Walt’ Marrs get down to real teamwork they have a team that is hard to defeat. “They also have girls who rank high in athletics. They are Hazel Lambert, Georgia DeBord, Alma Wilson and Lucille Slemp. These girls are on the first team. “Besides the talent show in athletics, they have dramatic ability as well. In their class play, Sara Morton was leading lady with James Bentley as hero. As usual, their dramatic productions would have been incomplete without Robert Mumpower playing opposite Lloyd Kelly. Bascom Barron made a hit starring as an Englishman. In their I 19 I
