The session 1945-46 was enjoyable as well as profitable for the sophomore class. Harold Hall, formerly of the U. S. Navy, and Edward Gilliam brought our class enrollment to thirty-six. James Barron “Dutchy” Morris was our choice for class president. Miss Broadwater’s capable guidance contributed much to our development. The sophomores had representatives in every extra-curricular activity. Recognition for our class was won by Eugene Kilbourne and Harold Gilliam as members of the All-County football team; Roy Dulaney, manager of the boys ' basketball team; Janis Asbury, manager of girls’ basketball team; Katie Olinger, captain of the Safety Patrol during the first semester; and Alice Graham, secretary of the Glee Club. At the close of the football season, a number of the girls, as a home economics class project, planned and gave a party honoring the football team and their guests. So we are gradually widening the range of our accomplishments, we eagerly look forward to our junior year.

Long to be remembered is Miss Dingus ' quiet understanding and sound counsel. We were glad to have Sue Books, Pearl Morelock, Evelyn Trent, Billie Sue Scroggs and Billy Nave as new members of our class. Horace “Buddy” Carmody and Ernest Jessee who had returned from the U. S. Army joined us at mid-term. Some Juniors prominent in school activities were David Olinger, class president and assistant business manager of the School Bell; Bonnie Salyer, class vice-president; June Hopkins, class secretary and treasurer and assistant editor of the School Bell: Toby White and Bobby Williams, captain and co- captain of the Safety Patrol. Looking forward to publishing our. yearbook, we swelled our treasury with funds from a magazine campaign conducted in February. Our number one social event was the Junior-Senior reception held in the gym in April. In May as we made the daisy chain to use in the final exercises, we realized that we now faced the challenge of our senior year.
