Mrs. Simmons, nee Miss Melva Le- gette, was chosen as class adviser and Pete Wallenborn, as our first president. We took many honors, winning the Clean-up Award, and the Intramural Athletic Trophy for both boys and girls. Our class had a larger percentage of girls participating in sports than any other class. We, the “Green Freshmen”, after our first year in this great institution of learning, moved on to our second year in Boyden High School. As Sophomores, our record was not as outstanding as the previous year, but we were honored by having five of our classmates admitted to the Hi-Y. These were: Donald Cle¬ ment, Francis Luther. “Bo McKenzie, Joe Roberts, and John Scott Krider. We kept the same class officers and had Miss Whitener as adviser. Under the direction of Miss Jessie Thompson, the Sophomore Girl Reserves presented a beautiful Easter pageant. Our third year was a very eventful one under the leadership of Miss Lena Boley, ad¬ viser, and Nancy Leonard, president. Our girls won the Intramural Athletic Trophy. Mary Lee Daniel was awarded the first state pin ever given in Boyden High School. Frances Enniss and Margaret Johnson received the Latin awards. Seven girls and two boys were made memebrs of the National Honor Society. These were: Mary Lee Daniel, Margaret Johnson, Virginia Ketner, Janella Kirk, Nancy Leonard, Violet Nance, Martha Trotter, Ray Troutman, and Tom Van Poole. This year our class, as is the custom, sponsored the Junior-Senior party, which, with the King Arthur theme and with blue and white, the Senior Class colors, as decorations proved to be most successful. Nancy Leonard and Roy Childers were chosen as Chief Marshals, and Mary Emma Grant, Ruth Miller, Clarissa Spencer, Henry Hubbard, Robert Manning, and Ray Troutman as Marshals at the Com¬ mencement exercises for the Class of 1937. Finally, we, the Class of 1938, took the role of dignified Seniors, aided in our activities by our adviser, Miss Louise Goforth, and our class president, Bobby Benson. We are very proud of our football hero, Pete Monroe, who made the All-State Team. Our basketball team won the Western Conference Championship. The Senior Girl Reserves, under the leadership of Miss Ruth Woodcock, and the Hi-Y, under the advisership of Mr. Clifford Beck, made great progress during the school year. The Girl Reserves presented a very effective Christmas pageant. The entire school enjoyed thoroughly the change in routine when the Social Standards Conference was held in our school. We invited representatives from neighboring schools and featured well known speakers throughout the day at study groups on Wise Use of Leisure Time. Tom Van Poole made the debating team. Mary Emma Grant won first place in the school and county Jr. O. U. A. M. Essay and Oration Contest and second place in the district contest. Fifteen of our fellow students were invited to join the National Honor Society. They were: Margaret Belt, Dorothy Click, Eddie Cuthrell, Mary Emma Grant, Carl Horn, Tom Harvey, Ruth Jones, Ruth Lorbacher, “Bo” McKenzie, Ruth Miller, Belle Hicks Purvis, Mary Putzel, Bill Shive, Hilda Stoker, and Scott Winders. As has been the custom of the past three years, the Senior Class sponsored College Day at which time we invited representatives from the most popular colleges of North Carolina to visit our school and talk to students interested in their colleges. The day prov¬ ed to be most successful. And now after four years in dear old Boyden High School, we, the Seniors of 1938, must take our diplomas and travel on toward our goal—to become leaders of tomorrow in our chosen fields. Mary Emma Grant, Historian STATISTICS Last January, being duly elected statistician of the highly intelligent Class of 1938, I set forth to gather, to the best of my ability, the interesting facts and figures of the class. After searching many days and nights, I finally came to the conclusion that this year’s senior class is one of the most brilliant ever to represent Boyden High School in the scholastic field. Further prowling into the records of the past revealed that during the four or more years of sojourning of the class in our great institution of higher learning a grand total of 34,333 notes were written, the largest number being composed by Bill Beaver to Elaine Goodson; and if our statistics are correct, Annie Rae Long wrote the mushiest. The average size of each senior’s mouth was found to be two and one-eighth inches, a mistake being made on the first measurement due to the absence of Ruth Miller, who brought the average up a half inch. This learned body encases its dainty feet in size seven shoe with the boys sporting eight and one-half and girls five and one-half. We tried to get some of the seniors to come 37 to school barefooted but their dignity prevented our wishes being carried out. The average weight we found to be one hundred twenty-five pounds, after adding five pounds to the average because of the immense bulk of Homer Surratt who weighs a mere two hundred fifteen. With Pete “Shorty” Monroe standing six feet four inches from the ground up, the height of these two hundred brilliant students was found to be five feet seven inches. The height increased an inch lately because of the newly acquired dignity. We take it as matter of course that the average of the girls is sixteen, for, as you know, that is as old as they get. Some go so far as to say they have never been kissed. The aver¬ age age of the boys was seventeen and most of them are about as dumb as they look ex¬ cept for Arthur Sultan who couldn’t be that dumb. When we gathered our statistics, seventy per cent of this body were brunettes, twenty per cent blonds and ten per cent were in between. However, due to the presence of per¬ oxide and other ingredients of this nature, we cannot say the percentage is the same now. The eyes of the graduates of ’38 are sixty per cent blue with thirty-eight per cent brown and one and a half per cent green. Robert Manning possesses a pair of, in his own words and own color, “robin egg blue,” which makes up the other fourth per cent. As we gathered these statistics we found by observation that fifty-five per cent were in love, omitting Owen Bean and Polly Jarrett, who have passed that stage; ten per cent were either too ignorant or had better sense, according to our personal opinion on the matter, than to fall in love; and the remaining five per cent were too bashful to admit that the love bug had bitten them. However, we did hear Tom Van Poole, Jr., singing “I Double Dare You” one day, which brings the percentage up a point. The choice of a favorite car was a toss up between the Chevrolets and the trap owned by Carter and Switzer. In this era of swing none other than Benny Goodman was chosen as the most popular orchestra, with the Briar Hopper Boys giving him a close race. The most popular game of this supposedly highly intelligent group of seniors is with¬ out a doubt Ping Pong, which accounts for the dumb look on so many faces these days. Donald Duck was again chosen as the favorite movie idol, leaving the Three Stooges and Tyrone Power the runners-up. This class has traveled over all parts of the earth and has been noted for its long trips. Why, only last month Joe Heilig and Burt Hoffman spent the week-end in China Grove. Forty per cent of the seniors have decided they know all there is to learn; conse¬ quently, there is no need to study any longer. Of the other sixty percent, thirty percent are going to college to attempt to learn a little more, while the other half is going either to keep from working or to have a good time. In our midst there are almost two hundred Democrats but alas, there always has to be a dissenting factor in school. We found a Republican by the name of Tom Harvey, of Echo Jr. fame. As these are all the statistics I have been able to gather in the short space of time allotted to me, I, the statistician of this peaceloving, law-abiding body will affix my signa¬ ture to this great document which, I hope may be of great value to the excellent students of the Class of ’38. Bob Benson, Statistician. CLASS WILL Be it remembered that we, the Senior Class of Boyden High School, Salisbury, North Carolina, fully realizing that we are imbued with a superb degree of intelligence never before attained by any group of individuals in the aforesaid institution, and further real¬ izing that we are possessed with an abundance of charm, grace, beauty, and general excel¬ lence far surpassing that of any of our predecessors, do desire to bestow upon our less fortunate fellow students and faculty members some of our most desirable characteristics. Therefore, be it further remembered that we, the Class of ’38, being of sound mind and body, but knowing the uncertainty of this life, do hereby make this our last will and testament: We will, bequeath, and devise as follows: First: To our parents, who have kindly watched us through all our trials and hard¬ ships, we leave our profound thanks. Second: To Miss Julia Groves and the faculty, in return for the many worries we have given them, we leave our thanks and sincere appreciation. Third: Nancy Leonard leaves her executive ability to Dick Crowder, the new presi¬ dent of the student body. Fourth: As it has long been the custom for the graduating class to leave some portion of the campus or building to an enamoured couple, Bill Beaver and Elaine Goodson leave the dark corner at the end of the second floor hall to John Hanford and Ella Troy Wood- son, with the hope that they can hold hands in the hall as gracefully as their predecessors.

PROPHECY OF THE SENIOR CLASS This afternoon I wandered, lonely and sad, into the woods to study the beauty of na¬ ture. Upon my arrival I was amused at a trickling stream. The birds were singing from every tree top; the atmosphere was filled with the fragrance of flowers blooming near by; a little gray squirrel was scampering around joyfully. All nature seemed to be con¬ tributing its beauty, and blending into peaceful music. I sat down on a rock near by with my head lying on a pillow of moss to study the work of the little stream. This brought to my mind Boyden High School—not so much the school, but my class mates. Where would they be after graduation? I wondered. The brook soon told me. You ask, “Can a brook tell stories?” This very little brook has related many a story. And the following is the story it told me of the dear old Class of Thirty-eight, twenty years hence. Ripple, Ripple, Ripple! On flows the Prophecy of Thirty-eight,. Many of the classes have gone to distant places to settle down; however, a few have remained loyal to Boyden, making additions to the faculty. Frances Beaver, after much debating as to whether to teach French or Latin, decided to take up the former. She now is Head of the French Department, while Margaret John¬ son is Head of the Latin Department. Eleanor Holshouser has truly merited the position of piano teacher after tedious and long years of practice. Ruth McMillan supervises a large group of typing and shorthand students.

Having taken over their father’s business, Ray and Carroll are making great progress in the Heck Heck Poultry Store, while Fred Rufty, assisted by Virginia Rufty, is operating a grocery store. Bill Beaver has been married to Elaine Goodson so long that they can sing “Love’s Old Sweet Song.” Lillian Beaver, having married Trent Busby, young and helpless, has settled back to darning his socks. Recently she led a parade in which Lysbeth Harris, Ruth Thompson, Margaret Belt, and Mildred Bradley proudly carried banners showing the terrible effects 41 of chewing gum on the minds of high school students and requesting a constitutional amendment to allay this great evil. Robert Manning is now a prosperous soft drink magnate. When taking his family for a ride on M. J. Plyler’s good boat, “Rock and Rye”, recent¬ ly. the gallant pilot, Burgess Miller, by falling overboard, jarred his teeth so badly he had to consult Floyd Brown, best painful dentist in town, and let his assistant, Alline Morgan hold his hand. ' Marion Brockmann is the Ford sales agent in Faith after having married Phyllis Car¬ ter. noted throughout the county for her cooking.
