IN MEMGRIAM James Asbury Jimmie” Wagner 1929 - 1945 I close my eyes and see him there At school, at work, at play— A laughing lad with winsome air. Who smiled a certain way. Oh, he was quick, and strong, and bright, And full of youthful dreams. Yet thinking of him here tonight— How long ago that seems. He did not journey far, this lad. His Master called him home To be with Him in Heaven above Where all is peace, joy, and love. Comrades will pass, their lessons learned. The throngs will shout acclaim. But I ' ll be still, because I know My voice will call his name. For sure I am to see him there Among them marching gay— My laughing lad with winsome air. Who smiled a certain way. MRS. A. A. WAGNER. Philip voiced our sentiments . . . We’ll Remember hoyden As: A place of work and enlightenment— it was meant so to be; A place where teachers with us strive— to enoble boys and girls; A place where ignorance and prejudice die— to establish peace on earth; A place where lives are directed right— to prepare for service; A place where character and morals tower— to inspire those who follow; A happy place and an unhappy place— all schools are; A place for friends well met— and many they were; A place for memories made— the kind one keeps; A place that God has blessed— with blessings uncountable.

THE HISTORY With shaking knees and sinking hearts we crowded over the threshold into tour of the happiest years of our lives, the ■ ' ' ad on our shoes marking our entrance into Boyden High School. Rolling up our sleeves and gritting our teeth, we set our shoulders to the wheel and started ourselves to making the history of one of the most remarkable classes ever to walk Boy- den ' s corridors. Realizing the need for capable, outstanding personalities to lead us through our “green year, we elected Jimmy Wagner president of our class. Marvin Gobble as vice-president. Betty Mowery as secretary, and Claude Hunt as treasurer. Our first year ' s activities included a number of programs, social gatherings, and a wide participation in all school drives. The annual Halloween play was presented and proved to be one of the most successful events of tne year. Homeroom 208 set an example , r the entire school by going 100 per cent in every defense stamp sale Boyden had during the year of 1943-1944.. For the first time m Boyden s history a freshman homeroom, 216, won the homeroom trophy. Our class also had fine representation in the tie id oi sports. Some of the dumb little fellows out were to become top-ranking performers in football and basketball. Dur¬ ing the year the Freshman Girl Reserves was the club” for the girls, and the Jr. lli-Y bestowed the honor of membership upon Claude Hunt. Emerson Faggart, Don Whitley, and Tommy Surratt. Our class is unique in that it is probably the only class ever to have a living memorial to its freshman year. The Salis¬ bury Youth Center, which is today one of the most popular haunts of the community s teen-agers, will always be a reminder That a great class such as ours—rich in resources, fired by determination, and urged on by the desire to better the lot of the younger set—can and did accomplish great things. We would like to acknowledge at this time our beloved teacher and the founder of our Youth Center, Mrs. John J. Wolfe, who inspired us to do our best, to fight hard, and to achieve our goal. It was in her freshman civics class that the idea of a youth center was conceived and the need of such brought to the eye of the public. Through panel oicussions, radio programs, and the old “grape-vine” method, the hazy day-dream became a blazing reality. September of the year 1944 found us eager to return to our studies as traditionally sloppy sophomores. Jimmy Wagner was again elected president of the group; qualities of leadership were also recognized in the following: Homer Thompson, vice-president: Lummie Jo Thompson, treasurer, and Jane Thomas, secretary. Participating in all the school ' s activities, we began to stand out as a group of students who would go far in making the year a successful one. Probably two of the most popular organizations with our class were the Boyden High School Band and the Orchestra; for both of these we have carried a deep appreciation throughout our high school career. Several of the members of our “clan were enrolled in the above mentioned under the direction of Mr. R. E. Southwick and were to become quite outstanding in the musical field. The newly organized Boys ' Chorus proved to be a great pleasure for many and an added attraction to school life. The Girls ' Chorus continued to be a source of enjoyment for them and an inspiration to all. At this time we faced one of the gravest blows ever to befall our class—the loss of one of our most beloved classmates. A boy of vibrant personality and illimitable possibilities— Jimmy Wagner was a born leader. He died, leaving us to carry on with his high ideals before us. Claude Hunt was elected to serve the remainder of Jimmy ' s term as president of the class. The Girl Resreves still remained a favorite club for the girls and new members for the Jr. Hi-Y were tapped as follows: Joe Jarrell, Homer Thompson, Bill Ellis, Wilbur Hall. Jack Leonard, Buddy Osborne, and W. B. Frye. For our third year we returned to what we termed our “second home,” prepared for big happenings and anticipating the coming activities with a zeal to carry our part of the burdens as veterans of the school. Capable officers for the class were found in Jack Leonard as president; Betty Mowery, secretary; Homer Thompson, vice-president; and Claude Hunt, treasurer. This year was to us what the Renaissance must have been to the folks back in the fifteenth century—we were coming out of the Dark Ages. Let it be known that up to this time Miss Julia Wharton Groves had been our esteemed principal; but, throwing caution to the winds, we found ourselves changing horses in the middle of the stream. Mr. J. W. Gaddy, Jr., was now holding the reins and proved to be an all-round good fellow. The newly organized Masque and vVig Club really aroused a lot of interest in drama and several members of our class showed promise in this field. Our own Peggy Plexico was elected to lead the club through its first year as president and Buddy Osborne filled the positiun of vice-president. Claude Hunt was voted second vice-president of the Victory Corps and the ballots showed Betty Mowery to be the student body’s choice as secretary. Now eligible to join the Forum Club, thirteen of our group were initiated into this organization. Bill Shives. Franklin Kirk, Tom Rainey, and Charles Eagle were tapped into the Jr. Hi-Y while Jack Leonard, Homer Thompson, Gibbv Barger, and Claude Hunt advanced into the honorable Senior Hi-Y. Sixteen girls from our clas were still stout devotees to the Girl Reserves. Although the football team was not too successful, the boys did fight hard and showed promise for our senior year. The basketball team had two fine players from our group—none other than Emerson Faggart and Homer Thompson. For the first time in several years, baseball was again introduced into Boyden. Several experienced juniors turned out for this grand old American sport. Golf enthusiasts were realized in Jane Thomas and Tom Rainey—both very outstanding figures on the local greens and members of Boyden ' s varsity team. Tom Rainey was awarded a scholarship to Catawba College for his excellent record of selling the most “E bonds in the current defense bond drive. Homeroom 104 far exceeded any other homeroom in this bond selling campaign. Jane Coneley was elected secretary of the Western District of the North Carolina State Student Council Congress for the coming year and was also elected the D. A. R good citizen of 1943-1947. Homer Thomp¬ son was the recipient of the Kiwanis award as the boy who showed the best sportsmanship during the year. The Civitan intramural cup for girls was bestowed upon the Junior Class for their outstanding record. The Quill and Scroll honored Shirley Atkinson. Betty Mowery, Jane Thomas, and Violet Pugh with membership into its folds. Wilma Coe, Frances Almond, Virginia Cole, Evelyn Barnes, Pauline Banton, Doris Sink, Marion Reeves, Lorraine Reizck, Jerry Hoffner. and Anne Miller served as junior marshals. Anne Miller and Jerry Hoffner were elected to serve as chief marshals. The National Honor Society tapped Jerry Hoffner, Pauline Banton, and Frances Almond into its hallowed ranks. Frances Almond was elected secretary of the North Carolina State Conveniton of the National Honor Society. The Jr.-Sr. prom was really a wonderful send-off to the out¬ going senior class. Using a cosmopolitan touch, the gym was arranged night-club style with decorated card tables placed around the walls masterpieces in crepe-paper designs, and balloons suspended from the ceiling. A superb floor-show was presented— one of the best ever given in the Boyden gym. As seniors we set to work to make our last year one long to be remembered in the annals of Boyden High School. Under the very capable leadership of Homer Thompson, president of the student body, the schooi immediately began to move forward to greener fields, bluer skies, and brighter days. Also elected officers of Boyden were: Jack Leonard, first vice-president: Lum¬ mie Jo Thompson, secretary; end Joe Jarrell, treasurer. Johnny Morton, now a full-fledged member of the class of 1947, was elected president of the class with Claude Hunt, vice-president; Jane Thomas, secretary; and Tommy Surratt, treasurer. Although the season was not one of the best, our football and basketball teams played fine games, supported whole-heartedly by the students. Bill Ellis, the boy our class voted most athletic, was selected for the All Shrine football team. Lummie Jo Thompson, drum majorette in charge of maneuvering the band, did an exceptionally fine job all through her high school career. We take great pride in being the Class of 1947—the first class ever to graduate from the twelfth grade of Boyden High School. We are proud because we know we have done our best. We would like to acknowledge our teachers: for their toler¬ ance. understanding and diligent teachings—for all the good times we have had with them. Especially we would like to thank our advisers: Miss Lillian Morris, freshman; Miss Jessie Thompson, sophomore; Miss Margaret Miller, junior; Miss Louise Goforth, our senior adviser. They were invaluable to us in many ways and we would like them to know that we appreciate the help given us We have come to the end that we have been looking forward to so eagerly; now it is here, one of the saddest moments of our lives—graduation from Boyden High School. But this isn’t the end—not for us, not really. We’ll always be together in all the tomorrows that God sends our way—together forever in memories. EMORY MASON, Historian STATISTICS In December of ' 46 I was elected to this most honored office of statistician, but it wasn ' t until February that I realized what a tremendous task lay before me in compiling the necessary information for this literary master¬ piece concerning the most unusual class in Boyden ' s history. It is unusual in that it contains a variety of person¬ alities, scholars, and morons. After an unceasing search, lasting from bedtime to breakfast, I finally arrived at the following astounding facts: The most amazing fact is that of the 141 members of the senior class only 46%% are human beings. The other 5314% are girls. Consulting all the medical files available, I found that of the 141 seniors, all 141 are breathing. However, there was some doubt about a certain Bill Ellis. Getting the color of hair was an easy job, but getting the color of the roots is a job for Influence (if only Dick Tracy had left him alone!). The peroxide dealers have been doing a booming business, as 20% of the senior class have blond hair (sup¬ posedly that is), 62%% brown, 13%% black and 3%% red. Nobody knows what the true color of Emerson Faggart ' s hair is as at one time or another it has been brown, blond, black, red. and green. Walking around the halls charming the opposite sex, the seniors boast 43.9% brown eyes, 32.4% blue, 5.9% hazel, 4.9% grey and 11.9% green. John Cline reports that his are bloodshot. Favorite songs are “For Sentimental Reasons and “Stardust, Bing Crosby rates tops as the singer while Frank “the shadow Sinatra ran a close second. Several of the girls named Wesley Holton as their favorite singer. The queen of teachers was found to be Miss Margaret Miller but there was a tie for the king ' s office between Mr. Calvin Koonts and Mr. L. C. Heck. That presented a problem, but I found a solution by dividing the school into three sections. I hereby crown Miss Miller Ruler of the first flooi, Mr. Calvin Koonts High Potentate of the upper regions known as the second floor, and Mr. L. C. Heck Grand Lama of the strange and mysterious third floor— from which frequently aromatic fumes descend—with the fond hope that he will keep his chemistry students from making hydrogen sulfide. As for the favorite subjects, math, physcis, and sociology were at the top of the list. Dating seemed to be the favorite pastime of this class, and they like to do their dating in a Buick. However. Chevrolet and Nash are running neck and neck, and I do mean neck! Others like to read their favorite magazine, “Life.” I am sending a telegram to Hollywood right away requesting that the seniors ' favorite actor and actress, Cor¬ nel Wilde and Ingrid Bergman, be co-starred in a movie which is to have its premier at the seniors’ favorite theater, namely the Capitol. If this cannot be done, it would be satisfactory for them to co-star on the favorite radio program, “The Lux Radio Theater. Otis Wood likes It Pays to Be Ignorant” and is now writing a book entitled “How to Get Rich.” The sport which the seniors prefer is football, with basketball close behind. There were a number of other sports mentioned. Wendy Grogan likes skiing, “Snooky Hall likes tiddle-le winks, and Joe Jarrell likes to eat. The average senior, not including Ann Houck and Wayne Wyatt, is 5 ft. 9 in. tall and weighs 133% pounds. There are som big feet in the class, which accounts for the 7% size shoe. The age of this human dynamo is 18. This figure was reached with the help of our veterans, who, having served their country well during the war years, have returned to their studies so that they may serve their country in another capacity—that of helpful American citizens. We are proud of each and every one of them. College is opening its beckoning arms to 6iy 2 % of our scholars. 29% said that they weren ' t going to continue their studies and 9%% said lhat they haven’t decided as yet. Some of them expresed doubt as to whether they were ever going to graduate from high school. Music is loved by all the seniors, but only 53% claim to be musical. The remaining 47%. are in the band. Bob Francis is one of those who claims to be musical: he says that he can play “Open the Door, Richard” with a piece of paper and a comb. If that ' s music then the whole class is musical. Among all these musical people I find that only 31%% are jitterbugs. The rest of them think that there is too much work involved, so they sit around and toss pennies at the ones who do jitterbug. Bobby Pinkston makes his living that way. The pet peeves of the class are conceit and sarcasm. There were numbers of others mentioned which ranged from scratching fingernails on the blacgboard to waiting for people or buses. There was also a wide variety of ambitions expressed by our beloved class, ranging from graduation from high school to getting married. But they shouldn ' t worry about graduation. They will—if they keep at it long enough—look at Don Whitley. If the seniors carry out their ambitions, the world will be blessed with many fine doctors, nurses, scientists, pilots, mechanics, and bums. These ambitions will carry 56% of them to some metropolis other than Salisbury, while the rest of them are going to remain residents of our fair city. Love is running amuck in our class: 52%% of them are in love. 37%% of them are running from the love bug, while the remaining 10% haven ' t decided whether they want to be bitten or not. James Smiley reports that he is definitely in love, while “Gibby Barger is now living under the radiator in the main hall hoping the love-bug will die either of starvation or of old age before it finds where he is hiding. 71% of our class believes in love at first sight. The others have been on blind dates. Favorite expressions are “Yea, he ' s good! , “Yea. he’s late! , Yea, he failed! , or What have you. and I don’t give a big rat ' s piece of cheese.” Fried chicken and steak rate tops in the food department, but “Bet Mowery prefers a more wholesome diet of pinto beans and onions. With these amazing facts and figures now in black and white I have already made plans for Marvin Gobble, equipped with one of those new pens which writes five thousand feet in the air and also under water, to write these facts over every major city in the United States and also under the ocean for the benefit of all the beautiful mermaids. On second thought, I had better do that myself. It is with just pride and admiration of my class that I hereby affix my signature to this intellectual master¬ piece. Witnesses: JOHN MORTON, Statistician I. Q. BREW CALVIN LESTER HOSTELLER HATTIE LOUISE THOMPSON THE PROPHECY On the day of June 5, 1967, our great class began to assemble at this fine upstanding institution which is our Alma Mater. As I strolled down the first floor hall, I noticed the new extension was too long a walk for me, so 1 hopped on the waiting subway and rode until I had finished Rod Nicol ' s new novel, “Kow to Ride a Subway Free of Charge : the conclusion is simply to be a conductor. Glancing ' at the posters in the subway, I noticed one which read. Gibby’s Food Center. and in smaller letters, Pork and Beans, Big Rats Cheese, and Ho-Bo Buns.” Glanc¬ ing further I saw that John Cline is now the owner of the new Brunswick Cline Real Estate office. I learned later that it was through the generosity of this gentleman that the county received a square mile of land, which now nolds the new wing of the school, a football stadium, a tennis court, and a swimming pool. With an abrupt halt, the subway reached its destination, and as I stepped out onto the platform, whom should I meet but Charlie Eagle and Joe Jarrell. After an exchange of greeting ' s, we fell to discussing our nationally famous class, and, as we strolled through the halls, I noticed a sign over one of the doors— Scoop’s Drink Stand and Smoking Lounge.” This was a very familiar name, and, as we entered the door, we overheard Scoop Leonard and Dayton Rabon dis¬ cussing the “Law of Enercia. We exchanged greetings, then went over, sat down at a table, and began to look around to see who else was in the lounge. Seated at the next table we saw Bill Anderson and Harold Myers, our class mechanics, discussing Marvin Gobble ' s new atomic controlled jet plane. Then Charlie and Joe began to tell me of their respective businesses. Charlie is the owner of Eagle’s entertainment center, grocery store, and filling station combined, while Joe is now the half owner of Jarrell’s Construction Company—located on the former site of Russell’s Road House. Bringing our discussion to an end with Scoop’s” announcement that the mass meeting was about to begin, we all left for the new auditorium, which was designed and built by Bob Lee and Jake Rendleman. As we arrived at the auditorium, we saw that the crowd had already assembled and were seated in their old regular assembly seats, with a special section at the back reserved for the children of the secretaries, and house¬ wives, namely: Edna Brown.-Hilda Newsome, Doris Barnhardt, Betty Morefield and Jane Coneley. Acting as baby sitters we found Otis Wood. Joe Randall, Don Whitley and Emerson Faggart. Jane. Edna, Hilda, Doris and Betty like to have their children’s clothes cleaned and lubricated at James Smiley’s On the Spot Cleaner ' s Service. Mickey Thomas, James’ assistant, is the man responsible for the new baby prod¬ uct, Smelley ' s Baby Oil.” When we were seated, President John Morton called the meeting to order. John is foreman of the dyeing department of Yadkin Finishing Company. Jean Jones, secretary of the Presbyterian Church, read the devotions. Jane Thomas, celebrated woman golf pro and former secretary of our class, read the minutes of our last meeting held in May, 1947. Following the program, which included music furnished by the concert pianist, Doris Sowers, the class left for Bill Powers and Jack Curlee ' s Bowling Alley where we began an inter-class tournament. During the course of the game, Bill Ellis, Coach for Albemarle High, forgot to let go of the bowling ball and was carried down the alley for a head first strike. He was promptly surrounded by competent men and women of the medical profes¬ sion: Doctor D. B. Michael, Betty Mowery, Kitty Miller, Barbara Rendleman, and McCrea Hogge. Gathering around him also were Henry Wiley and Garland Trollinger, prominent dentists, looking for loose molars. Newton Cohen was climbing all over the rafters and alleys hoping to find some gold teeth. After this accident, we decided to tarry no longer at the bowling alley, but to journey to meet the New York Central floating express, which was bringing more or our class to the reunion. On the way, we passed through the heart of the business district of Salisbury, which incidentally is monopolized by ’47 graduates. With the aid of our social workers—Virginia Cole, Doris Eury, and Peggy Plexico, the class was furnished with adequate trans¬ portation facilities to carry the group on its tour. As we rode into the business district, we found that Homer Thompson is now the owner of the “Charlie Horse Sporting Goods Store.” Right next door we found Fraley Windsor’s “Ideal Furniture Store.” Serving as salesclerks for Fraley are James Overman, Peggy Kluttz, and W. T. Hartman: his private secretary is Wilma Coe. On the corner of this busy street we saw that “Snookv” Hall is the owner of Hall’s Smoke Shop with a com¬ plete line of his favorite books—Superman and Donald Duck. Over Hall’s Smoke Shop is a new beauty parlor, under the direction of Ruth Holt. She has introduced many new and exciting hair styles which London and Paris are now seeking to copy. Evelyn Trexler and Alice Christi held the attention of the ladies with their new and attractive fashions, dis¬ played in their Women ' s Apparel Shoppe. Those responsible for the displays are Dot Brandt and Betty Walker. On down the street is a large neon sign which glows “Nick and Paul’s Radio Hospital for Sick and Ailing Tubes. The Kaneklides boys are doing fine in their business, but for their competitor next door, Jimmy Wilkie. Arriving at the station we saw that the special express train had just arrived with its cargo of celebrities. First to roll off the train was C. B. Hunt, Jr., prominent dry cleaner of V ashington, D. C., who has cornered all the cleaning and dyeing of the White House and surrounding “kennels.” Close on his heels came New York’s second Arthur Murray, Lummie Jo Thompson, who has gained fame by introducing new ballets and jazz steps. Then they began to pour off in a steady stream. Among the crowd were those nationally famous models, Elsie Grogan and Mary Ann Austin, who can be seen in every issue of Emory Mason ' s new magazine “Blush.” This train had one car reserved for housewives and their children. Those occupying this car were: Lucille Bauknight with her three children and Betty Brown and her two children. Doris Sink tried to reserve another car for her brood, but was forced to maintain them all in one compartment. The train crew itself consisted of: Frank Kirk, engineer; Bill Mills, fireman; Jake Waller, porter; Clyde Myers, flagman; and Norman Jordan, conductor. The super train itself was designed by Wesley Holton and Sam Harman. After eevryone had exchanged greetings we decided to call it a day and each one go to his home or hotel for the night as a big day lay ahead. The next morning as I walked down the street, 1 ran into Jimmy Horton, prominent lawyer and president of .Lawyers’ Row. He suggested we go down to his office to talk. As we wer eg ' oing down, we met Mary L. Alex¬ ander, Ann Foreman. Helen Hartman and Rebecca Ann Miller getting into Ann ' s car. They were going out to the high school where they are now engaged in teaching; Ann Foreman is one of the art teachers; Helen is the physical education teacher; Mary London is a Spanish teacher. After we had exchanged a few friendly greetings, we started on down to Jim ' s office. When we reached our destination, I saw Eleanor Fish going into the office. Jim told me that she is his secretary. While I was in his office, who should come bursting in but Bob Francis and Russell Gminder. Both were raving mad, because while they were flying low over W. B. Frye’s chicken farm, they scared the chickens into the barn and many of the prize hens were killed. W. B. was trying to sue them for damages. But it seemed that all ended well when Jerry Hoffner, dietitian for the high school cafeteria, bought the chicken meat and Jimmy Gregory, representative for Taylor Mattress Co., bought the feathers for some of his mattresses. Alter this minor interruption, our conversation turned to recent best sellers. We found that among the top wrtiers of the country are Shirley Atkinson, and Betty F. Cooper. Another of our class in the same cate¬ gory is Violet Pugh who is Editor and owner of the Salisbury Post. After this interesting chat was ended, Jim decided to close the office for the remainder of the day. We heard that Tom Rainey was giving an exhibition at his private golf course, but, since there was so much work involved in following him around, we decided to go to the school and watch preparations for the big dance that night. When we entered the new community ball-room, we saw a beehive of workers. I first noticed Delmer Cline preparing a stand for the orchestra. Electricians N. A. Elium and Ralph Leonard were connecting up the loudspeaking system and preparing the lights. Putting up the decorations were our artists and interior decorators: Ben Brandon, Frances Jane Kelly, Elizabeth Nassif and Tom Trexler. Off in a corner, we found Pauline Banton and Buddy Osborne rehearsing their speeches for the program which was to be broadcast that night We were asked to go to R. H. Snider’s Wholesale Food Warehouse to get the refreshments. R. H. met us at the door and offered to show us through this enormous concern. As he was showing us, we saw Evelyn Barnes and Dot Reid, his secretaries, and Ray Mills, H. B. Kepley and Wayne Hall, his bookkeepers. With our carload of food we started back to the com¬ munity center, but noticed the gas gauge was very low. We pulled into Howard ' s Super Service Station.” While Bill filled the gas tank, Bob Pinkston wiped the windshield, Wayne Wyatt checked the oil. and Frank Lyerly checked the tires. With my car shining like new we journeyed on. As it was getting late, we dumped the food hurriedly at the ball-room and went to Bob Jones’ and Doris Mesimore’s florist shop so Jimmy could buy a corsage for his wife. After this we went our separate ways to prepare for the dance. The ball-room was crowded with people when I arrived and as I edged through the crowd I could see Frances Blackwell, secretary for a New York firm, Charlotte Butler, Betty Rose Ramsey, and Etta Reavis, secretaries for the Salisbury City Schools. Also there were Doris Lyerly, Ann Miller, Barbara Propst, Gazelle Reavis, and Katherine Albright, housewives, dancing with their husbands. The light began to dim as the loudspeaking system barked that the program was to start. Frances Almond, now an interpreter, stepped into the spotlight to serve as mistress of ceremonies. First on the program was Bill Milholland. Metropolitan Opera star, accompanied by Lorraine Reizck. who is now with the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra. They were followed by Becky Holt, dancing instructor for the Ziegfeld Follies in New York; Becky was also accompanied by Lorraine. When the applause faded away, Philip Juboor stepped into the limelight to tell of his recent discoveries in the field of electronics. These discoveries will call for new physics books to be written and a new technique in teaching. Following this, Edith Melton told of her experiences in China as a missionary. Frances Almond then stepped up to read telegrams from others of our class who expresed their regrets at not being on hand. Those absent were: Bill Shives, who couldn ' t get a leave from the navy; Joan Ketner, a famous psychoanalyst in Los Angeles, who was unable to leave her work; and Gene Miller, Notre Dame’s basketball coach, who was holding summer drills with his championship team. These were the only absences and with the comple¬ tion of the telegrams the dancing was resumed. I glanced at my watch only to find that it had stopped; therefore, I sought our Walter Ritchie, a watchmaker in town, to have him examine it. He wound it and gave it back to me. Over in the corner of the room I saw Ann Houck, scientist, and Grevilda Snider, geologist, discussing scientific problems. Hearing the clatter and bang of dishes, I looked around to see what was taking place. Refreshments were being served and, as the group began to crowd around, I saw Wilbur Upton, Jack Leonard. Fred Warren and Buddy Phelps—all prominent engineers—and also Doris Gupton and Ann Powell—nurses. As I dug my way into the food-craving mob, I saw that Florence Ritchie, Nancy Shook, Sarah Small and Jeanette Soloman, secretaries for various firms in Salisbury, were serving the punch. Doris Bradshaw, Nancy Miller, and Elizabeth Spencer were “handing out” the food Newt Cohen took a bite out of my hand before he found out it wasn ' t a sandwich. After many fun-filled hours of entertainment, the crowd sang “Auld Lang Syne” and went their separate ways. Thus ended the two-day reunion of the Class of ' 47. The memory of this first reunion will stay in my mind always and I am looking forward to the next one. Now I have to return to my music—my public, you know. TOMMY SURRATT, Prophet LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT We. the Senior Class of Boyden High School, being in sound minds, strong .bodies, unscarred consciences superior intelligences, wish to bestow our unacquirable traits, dignities, and honors upon our most unworthy underclassmen in full view of the fact that they will not obtain.these qualities. Being of unselfish attitude and desirous of seeing this institution go onward, we, the Class of Forty-Seven, do herewith make our Last Will and Testament. First: To our parents who have loved us, cared for us, and helped our faltering steps, we give our deep¬ est love, greatest appreciation and dearest thoughts. None other could take your place. Second: To Mr. J. H. Knox ,our superintendent, Mr. J. W. Gaddy. Jr., our very patient and understanding principal, and to our CO ' s, better known as Boyden faculty, we leave our gratefulness for their unceasing efforts as they fought a losing battle in making us learn our ABC ' s. You ' ve made us what we are today— yeah, we ' re satisfied. Third’ To the generous people of Salisbury we leave a great big thank you for supporting us all the way. Fourth: David Michael, fresh from Uncle Sam ' s mighty fleet, leaves his ah’s and oil ' s, the kind that sim¬ ply overcome the fairer sex in this institution and town to none other than ‘‘Alfalfa ' ' Powell. The poor guy needs something! Fifth: Emerson Tarzan Faggart leaves his hair dressing utensils, consisting of vacuum cleaner, one broom, and a 50-lb. can of ESSO High Octane axle grease, to Frank Andrews, hoping that he, too, looks good in all colors (and I do mean all) of hair. Sixth: Ann Houck, The Runt, leaves her small stature to Ann Harder in the hope that she can care for it as well as did her predecessor. Seventh: Harry John Morton leaves three strings of spaghetti and two meat balls to Richard Cauble. Eighth: Betty Mowery, modestly and after much persuasion, leaves her charm, integrity, leadership, graceful manner, and initiative to Mary Catherine Hart. Ninth: William Presly Mills Ellis—alias Albemarle, alias Bill, alias Willie—leaves his perfect innocence and undying brilliance to anyone who can acquire as much knowledge as he did in eight years of high school. Tenth: William Franklin Dopey Anderson leaves his uncanny ability to receive letters from the War Department pleading, in vain, for a patent on his ears as wings for a new atomic powered plane to anyone who can fill the bill. Eleventh: Nancy Jo Miller and Ann Osborne are the beneficiar ies of Lummie Jo Thompson ' s morale¬ building majorette abilities with the hope they will lead that swell band to heights unknown. Twelfth: Norman Jordan and Jimmie Wilkie leave their ability to assist anyone with the spending of his lunch money to Cliff Owen, Jr., and Robert Canup with a note of warning, Don’t be gluttons, fellows!” Thirteenth: Mickey Thomas leaves his golfing skill to Tommy Llewellyn with the hope that he will keep on slugging for dear old Boyden. Fourteenth: Wayne Wyatt leaves his pleasing personality and good disposition to Paul Kiger with the sincere hope that he will carry on in the Wyatt loyal and gay fashion of spreading more smiles and cheer¬ fulness during his stay at Boyden. Fifteenth: Charles “The Flame” Eagle will keep up the tradition and will his titian hair to Patsy Somers with the hope that next year she will bestow her red mop on some unsus pecting person. Sixteenth: Moe” Powers bestows upon Bill Buck Hobson an acquaintance with the State Highway Patrolmen with the fond hope that it blossoms into a full friendship. If not, he leaves a map of certain country roads which lead to safety. Seventeenth: Jack Leonard, Gibby Barger, and Don Whitley, the trio that is always the life of the party, leave this most enjoyable position to Don Rufty, Jimmy Wood, Hub Johnston and Richard Lentz. This is accompanied by a booklet entitled “You, Too, Can Be the Life of the Party or “100 Stale Jokes.” Eighteenth: The intelligence of the class, as a whole, is left to the Freshmen. May they, too, learn the art of studying and doing a thousand and one other things. Nineteenth: Frances Almond leaves the honor roll to Sam Huneycutt, hoping that under the combined influence of Miss Thompson. Miss Lippard, and Miss Goforth he will some day be able to read it. Twentieth: Buddy Osborne and Barbara Rendleman leave their ability to count in time and dance in rhythm to Kat Hart and Reid Dorsett, along with a hat for collecting pennies from their admirers. Twenty-First: Tom Rainey and Jane Thomas join golf clubs and bequeath their birdies to Mattox and Arey. May they be far under par. Twenty-Second: A dozen Bayer aspirins, a glass of Bromo-Seltzer, and twelve hours sleep are left by Pauline Banton to anyone who needs them as much as she did. They may be found at the end of her well- beaten path to Miss Lippard’s office. Twenty-Third: “Lib” Nassif leaves her short, short legs to Billie Williams, knowing that if it is at all possible she will make them grow. Twenty-Fourth: Jane Conelev bequeaths her happy-go-lucky nature and popularity to Sophie Hobson (as if she needed anymore). Twenty-Fifth: The senior cheerleaders leave to the younger cheerleaders their sore throats and cold feet. A sure remedy for these ills is a touchdown in every game. Twenty-Sixth: Frances Jane Kelly leaves her darling dimples to “Shorty Garwood—from one cute gal to another. Twenty-Seventh: Tom Ennis is the recipient of Philip Juboor’s many hours of burning the midnight oil. This could lead to that coveted superlative, “Most Studious.” In conclusion: Four years in Boyden is a short time—much too short—as we seniors realize, now that we have reached our goal. True, we made mistakes and now we regret them. Remembrances? Certainly, we have many. We stand on the brink of departure, facing that inevitable hour when all that was is no more. Therefore, we, the class of ' 47, leave the coming years at Boyden to the students who will someday walk her hallowed halls. We hope that they will make much of their years and enjoy their stay as much as we have. Witness: CLAUDE HUNT, Lawyer W. S. GADDY J. W.

Convention EVELYN TREXLER Chairman Homeroom 106— First Semester Summary ’46-’47 Season Boyden Crushes Spencer 3 5-0 Boyden opened the 1946 season against Coach Fred Holt ' s Railroaders. Highlights of the game were: Big Reid Dorsett blasting through the line to block a kick; Randall, Linder and Leonard taking honors in their ground play; and Dorsett, showing up as the outstand¬ ing linesman. Jackets Battle to Scoreless Tie 0-0 The most thrilling non-conference game was held on Mollitt Field in Lexington when Boyden Yellow Jackets met Lexington Yellow Jackets. It was actually a battle between Lexington’s fullback “Tinker” Williams and the Boyden ' s fullback “Lope” Linder. Both ripped off nice gains and both teams had their big moments. Barger and Wyatt were the line stars for Boyden. Boyden Whips Waves 22-12 The Jackets moved into their conference win by downing a strong Gastonia team. “Lope” Linder, who was shifted to tailback, scored three times, while Shoe and Rusher ed good ball at end. Hub Johnston, flashy tailback, was hurt in this encounter. Jackets Lose to Bulldogs 19-7 Boyden’s Yellow Jackets fought off a fine Albemarle eleven for a scoreless first half, but with a pov.eriul T attack, the well-schooled Bulldogs rolled up three touchdowns. In the closing minutes of the game, Boyden struck the ground play of Linder, Leonard, and Randall—moving the pigskin into Bulldogs ' territory, with Linder going over and Ellis ' conversion good for the extra point. Ellis and Barringer were line standouts. S. C. Champions Take Jackets 2 8-0 Playing the cleanest and best-schooled team of the season, Boyden valiantly went down under a strong Rock Hill eleven. With Linder out and Brooks filling his shoes, Boyden fought to a 7-0 first half. However, Rock Hill proved too much for the Yellow Jackets. Smith and Wyatt were starred as tackles and Morton was good at center. Bisons Roll Over Jackets 34-6 Losing their first conference game. Boyden succumbed to the undefeated High Point club. With a razzle-dazzle play from T formation, the overpowering “Pointers” ran 21 points in the first half. Throughout the remander of the game as well, the Jackets were outclassed by a smooth-working conference team. Cauble scored in the final minutes for the locals. Burlington Beats Boyden 2 6-0 The small frame of Homer Thompson took a terrific beating at the hands of the Bur¬ lington Bulldogs. With all breaks in favor of Burlington, Boyden lost it.s second conference game, Barringer playing his usually fine game on the line. Whirlies Rout Jackets 40-0 The heavy invaders were just too much for the underdog Salisburians. The “T” forma¬ tion from which Greensboro ' s Kidd operated as quarterback, passing to Dempsey, resulted in two touchdowns. The Jackets tried valiantly to score, but due to the lack of reserve power, they went down in defeat. Waller played an impressive game. Jackets Win Over Barium 12-0 Little Homer racked up two touchdowns for the locals and the entire line played a brilliant brand of football. Whitley and Carter shared backlield honors. Maroons Down Boyden 2 5-6 Coach Dwight Holshouser’s Asheville eleven crushed Boyden ' s homecoming fever. Holshouser is a former Boyden star. In the final minutes of the game, after a 68-yard march, tall, lanky Don Whitley bowled over for the only touchdown of the Jackets. Sam Chandgie made a good impression at fullback; Barringer, Smith, and Rusher held up the forward wall. Boyden Upsets Reynolds 19-7 The Jackets finished the season with a thriller, the biggest upset of the whole season. Overwhelmingly, the Salisburians shoved the Winston-Salem team ' s attack down their throat. The locals gained 170 yards to Reynolds’ 14. Homer Thompson, Claude Hunt, and Harvey Brooks shared backfield honors while Wyatt and Barringer blocked three punts to take line honors. COACH W. S. LUDWIG —This year was his first of coaching following his discharge from the navy where he served three years as a lieutenant. Before entering the navy, Coach had thirteen years of coaching experience behind him as a head coach of football, basketball and baseball. In 1942 he was selected to work the North Carolina all-stars in the Shrine Bowl game and with Ludwig as coach, they won. MR. DERWOOD HONEYCUTT —Not wanting to be different from the other two coaches, Mr. Honeycutt was also a lieutenant in the navy. Mr. Honeycutt was given reign over the Jr. Varsity football squad and did a fine job with them as can be seen from the record. He was given full power over the Varsity and Jr. Varsity basketball boys. MR. JIM WOODSON —Mr. Woodson is not a member of Boyden faculty’s, but is, instead, an up and coming lawyer in Salisbury. The Jackets were fortunate to secure his •errice as line coach. In his high school days, Mr. Woodson was a top-notch football star and also the president of the school. At the University of North Carolina, he was an out¬ standing guard, outstanding enough to be on the all conference team and captain of the Tar Heels for two years. Mr. Woodson was, also, a lieutenant in the navy. COACH W. S. LUDWIG MR. DERWOOD HONEYCUTT MR.
