Chewning became the superintendent ofthe Durham Coun- ty Schools in September, l952. He has endeared himself to students and faculty members alike with the calm and sincere manner in which he accom- plishes his various administrative tasks. Some of his activities include-working with architects on plans for the new Northern and Southern High Schools, planning the equipment for these new buildings, working with the Board of Education, the County Commission- ers, the Citizens' Committee, the P. T. A.'s, numerous teacher-groups, the principals, the supervisors, and many individual students and patrons of the schools-in order to make Durham County Schools bigger and better. Despite these and other important duties, Mr. Chewning is never too busy for the personal touch, such as- the letter of congratulations to the student who has won some special honor. Never has one worked more tirelessly to secure well-qualified personnel, an adequate curriculum, and sufficient funds to meet the needs of the stu- dents.

As we entered the school year T954-55, we were a group of thrilled seniors who were looking forward to the year ahead of us. At once we found ourselves amidst a whirl of many activities, as well as many hard hours of study. We started to work on our yearbook-electing officers, selling ads, drawing our section, and taking pictures . . . Planning Freshman Initiation Week was a lot of fun for the Seniors, and also turned out to be a very enioyable week for the Freshmen , . , When our beautiful blue sapphire class rings finally came, we felt more like Seniors than we had previously. Marching into assemblies while our classmates respected us by standing until we had come in was an experience we had long anticipated. We had many long class meetings to discuss our problems, to plan money making campaigns, and also to plan our parties . . . After much thoughtful con- sideration the senior superlatives were elected . . . We had a very enjoyable New Year's Party, but cramming for the examinations which we came back to after the new yea wasn't very enjoyable . . . Practice-I This was a word the seniors heard for a long time lsix weeksl, but as a result out play, Take Care of My Little Girl, was very successful . . . The Junior-Senior Banquet which the Juniors gave us 'ir May was a delightful evening for everyone . . . Our class day exercises brought back the happy memories of our expe- riences in clubs, classes, and other activities which we hcc spent together . . . And then it was time to start planning our graduation-the time we hadbeen working for anc looking forward to since we had entered school. We were now ordering our caps and gowns, planning and prac- ticing the different ceremonies, and also sending out ou invitations , . . Our school year had ended-but througl our accomplishments of the past year this group of senior: was ready to meet the challenge and thrill of a new life ' MASCOTS ,,,, irrisr .

As we entered school in the fall of '54 we were proud of the fact that at last we were Juniors. As we look back through our past, we realize that the way has been rough and rugged, but novv vve see that it was worth every effort we put forth. Realizing that we had so little time left, we began our Junior year with great determi- nation, We began this by electing our class officers. Next we had a magazine sale which was not as successful as vve had hoped. However, it helped a great deal toward our Junior and Senior Banquet. We had lots of fun selling candy and were proud of the large profit we cleared. A very outstanding event was the presentation of our Junior Play, 'ffhel' Hoosier School Master, under the direction of Mrs. Evans.

Class The class ot i955 entered Oak Grove High School with approximately sixty students. No longer those pesky elementary pupils, we were what they called green freshmen. Mrs. Stickney and Mr. Neal, our homeroom teachers, were patient and understanding through those first months when we were getting adjusted. We were more fortunate than the other classes, because we were allowed to take a course in physical education, and we had for our teachers Mr. Houser and Mrs. Bass. The girls gave a TV Party in honor ot the boys at the Home Economics cottage. Then reports were passed out, anc we were Sophomores. As Sophomores we became a part ot the crowd. Then i was our turn to look down on the freshmen. Mr. ltlouser and Mrs, Pollock were our homeroom teachers. That year some o the members ot our class were in the Dramatics Club. Near thi end of the year they presented a rollicking comedy entitlei Our Hearts Were Young and Gay. The class climaxed th year with a picnic at Clearwater Lake. One thing happened to cloud our spirits. Mr. Houser wc leaving us and we gave him a surprise going-away party 1 Mrs. Pollock's home. The highlight ot our Sophomore year wc May Day with members of our class participating. We began our Junior year with h'gh hopes. Mrs. Tharring ton was our homeroom teacher. First semester we had a harvest dance and went to W liamsburg, Virginia. It was an exciting trip, because we almc got snowbound. We selected lt's A Date tor our play, and was a bigsuccess. Then our days were packed with plans t the lun?or-Senior Banquet. Harrell Tice was master of cer monies, Our theme was Show Boat, and everyone seem: ,, 'misss gg. 'Y N 'Wi l to va it We dst? ...K-4 .... xs- History to enioy himself. And at last our class rings arrived. We walked around for days just admEring them. We had tor proiects the sale ol magazines and candy. We beat the seniors in the magazine sale, and they had to give us a weiner roast, We also had one at Sparrovv's Pool, and Mrs. Tharrington gave us an ice cream supper at her home. During the summer of l954, we had a get-together picnic at Lake Mirl. Then at last we were dignified Senfors, or we thought so, anyway. We were proud to have with us again Mrs. Tharring- ton, whom we all loved and respected. We sold Christmas cards, corsages, candy, magazines, and brunswick stew. We greeted the New Year with a party at Mrs. R. L. Vl!5lson's home. Later we had a Valentine party at Mrs. H. A. Wilson's home. We chose Lights Out for our play, and it proved to be a success, Then around the corner came our Washington trip. This Nas the event of the year, because we had looked forward to t tor many months. We were burstng with anticipation and 'hen we were oll. One ol the hig'tl'ghts of our trip was the stage show at the Lowes Theatre. Naturally, the people in VVashing- 'on thought we were just dumb southerners, butdv-fe really en- oved ourselves. At last, graduation was in s'ght. Our thoughts were crowcl- ed with memories ol the past and plans for the future. Now that we have accomplished our goal, we world like o extend our deepest thanks to on parents and many teachers :nd Our principal for their kindness and gudance through the fears YVONNE BRANTLEY Historian QR . . ,-1 - .s f x I fi Y E 5 X .

Work continued and in i948 the parts from Rougemont were t in with those at Mangum. The chief engineer was Mrs. Willella I ln I949 a new unit from the Holt factory was added. Our iob si visor was Mrs. Hubert Crabtree. We ended our elementary education as one unit under the si vision of Mrs. Winston Hill. The foreman was Mr. O. B. Bass. The construction was Gnished but, like all buildings, there were I fixtures that had to be installed. We entered the magic world of High School! Mr. Anderson wa chief instructor. Our interior decorator in the ninth grade 'was Vertee Umstead, She helped us to get adjusted to our new loci Mr. W. E. Rice introduced us to civics and class parties. Miss Umstead was our teacher in the tenth grade also. Our struction boss was Dr. R. S. Spear. l am afraid our building smell formaldehyde that year because of our interest in biology. Mr. C. W. Morgan took over the iob when we became Junior: also received help and guidance from Miss Ethel Wilkins., who ' English and French to help us in our travels. This Ol' House really rocked with rehearsals of our Junio The Mystery Of Crazy Canyon Ranch, ln our play it was the listory amen who went West. We continued to travel, with the theme of our inior-Senior Banquet being Gypsy Caravan. A new fixture was dded to our building this year-class rings! l955! Our building is in a new district. Our house number has been tanged to l2. At last we are High School Seniors. The building in- :ector is Miss Jean Hayes. We are still on the go with our trip to Jashington. An important part of our Senior year was sending invitations and anning for commencement. One of the highlights was our play- Stars In Their Eyes -in which we had housing problems. Our building is not the same as when we first started twelve years go. There have been changes in the blueprints and our building ma- frials have been both gained and lost, but the purpose of our building still the same-even the hurricanes that came during our Senior year auld not wreck us. We, the last graduating class of Mangum High School, extend our 'atitude to our parents who have been our architects, and to our achers and friends who have served as builders and advisers. The Jors of our building will never be closed to them and we shall always Ive an extra room. Our Senior year is ending, but we shall always be adding to our iowledge, knowing that Commencement is only a beginning.

As wide-eyed and tearful first graders, we met our teacher, Mrs. Lillian Umstead. Soon our tears were dry and we began to learn to read and write under her careful guidance. Of the fifty-four small scholars that started out only seven re- main: Ronald Aldridge, Frank Gunter, Gail Rigsbee, Ruth Matthews, Betty Knowles, Al Ripley, and Rose Marie Kearney. We have spent twelve eventful and unforgettable years together. Of course, all of us will remember buzzing and flying around in our bee and butterfly costumes on May Day. This was the year that the first important mark was made on the blue- print of our lives. Tears marred our blueprint in the second grade because we, as a group, were divided. Half of us went to Mrs. Snipes' room and the other half to Mrs. Darnell's room. Margaret Hill, Loretta Neal, and Bobby Blackwood ioined our group in the second grade. Miss Doris Lynn, after trying very hard, finally taught the multiplication tables to her forty-six third grade students. Our blueprint began to take real shape because this was the year we learned to write. Darrell McKinley entered the third grade with us. All of us remember Mrs. Barrett and the fourth grade. One of her obiectives was to teach us about the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers. I think all of us will remember that you iust did not chew gum in her room. FIFTH GRADE! This was the year we really thought we were growing up, and so was our blueprint. Mrs. Barbour was our teacher. Her love for sports and her leadership made the fifth grade a pleasant one. Donald Eubanks and Jimmy Jones became members of our class. Under the careful supervision of Mrs. Ellen Ward in the sixth grade, we learned how to give oral book reports and learned many important facts about An- cient History. Bobby Smith ioined our happy band that year. ln the seventh grade, we learned how to play softball and Bow, Bow, Oh Belinda. We shall never forget Mrs. Vonnie Rhyne who discovered our dif- ferent talents and gave us an opportunity to develop them. We were ioined in the seventh grade by Barbara Mize and Peggy Willoughby. Mrs. Zenna Harris and the eighth grade! That year the girls began to wear lipstick and the boys began to notice the girls. All of us were excited about changing classes and having different teachers. Robert Gwaltney entered the eighth grade with us. The ninth grade came and we crossed a new threshold to high school proper. We were tagged as Green Freshmen on initiation day-and green we were. Fun and excitement marked our Freshman year with Mrs. Betsy Alston, our teacher. Barbara Hill and Percy Mclamb ioined us in the ninth grade. Bugs, birds and frogs mark our memory for our Sophomore year with Mrs. Marion Hall. That year there were many parties and dances to mark another stage in our high school development. We increased our school family when Thomas Franklin and Darrell Kennedy joined us. In the eleventh year, with Mrs. Joan O'Brien as our teacher, we did much hard work, but we had some- enioyment, as well. Our work really began with the Halloween Carnival, progressed to the Junior Play, and then to the selling of magazines, it was climaxed with the beautiful and unforgettable Junior-Senior Ban- quet. Our class enioyed a trip to White Lake that year. There will always be a portrait hanging in our memories of our devoted teacher, Mrs. Joan O'Brien, who under- stood our many needs. Joan Fullwood, Bobby Mock, Ann Riley, Frances Adcock, Glenn McFarland, and Thomas Willoughby iofned our group in the eleventh grade. We are Seniors now and the blueprint of our high school life is about completed. We shall soon face the tasks of adult life and will begin a new adult blueprint. This year was marked by the presentation of our Senior Play, The Sixth Key. We enioyed an- other Junior-Senior Banquet and a class trip. Following the busy Spring season our Class Day came, and then the highlight of them all-Graduation Day with navy caps and gowns and then, our diplomas. Gerald Hoke, E. J. Holt, Barbara Melton, Nancy Mangum, Joan Hartsell, Pat Ray, and Jean Corbin ioined us in the twelfth grade. As we leave Hope Valley High School we extend our appreciation to Mr. Vincent for his help. To Mrs. Dorothy Randall, our senior teacher, we express ap- preciation for her kindness and understanding. To Mrs. Zenna Harris, Mrs. Joan O'Brien, Mrs. Sandra Zucker- man, Mrs. Dottie Earp, and Mrs. Virginia Teets goes our appreciation for their patience and guidance. We leave our thanks to our parents and those in the Hope Valley Community who have helped make our twelve years of growth and development possible.
