ELVA MAE THOMAS Editor in Chief FRANCES STEWART Associate Editor NORINE WHITFIELD Business Manager A cross section of our school life at Broadway High School is the aim of this book. It is divided into five sections: ADMINISTRATION, CLASSES, ACTIVITIES, ATHLETICS, and sADV ERTISING Sit is) the desire of the staff that as a student turns the pages he may live again the year 1949, the year our first engraved annual was published.

Class Colors: Blue and Gold. Class Flower: Rose. CLASS POEM Day is dying in the west And all the world is still; Groups of people are going To the schoolhouse on the hill. They are going to see the Seniors Stand up and take the oath: “To go out into the cruel world And help in its growth.” Some will smile, some tears will fall, And some will look very solemn; For these people know what it is To have the world before them. The teachers will look on sadly, For they hate to see them go; They love the good and bad alike As anyone should know. It’s farewell now to old Broadway Our new life’s now begun, But please look out in the world some- day And see what we have done. —HELEN KITTRELL.

Our timidity and curious mistakes furnished some comical moments. As is customary, we were looked “down on” by the upper classmen and considered a species of an inferior grade. During the year, we lost two members of our class. Sophomores!!! The second year found 32 of us advanced to the rank of Sophomores, but alas, an epidemic swept our class: eight left school and entered the holy bonds of matrimony. A Beta Club was organized with Mrs. J. J. Lentz as sponsor. Our class furnished seven of the charter members: Nellie Gray Lett, Mary Frances Yarborough, Elva Mae Thomas, Frances Stewart, Johnsie Lee Thomas, Frances Holt, and Mary Rogers. With Mr. J. J. Lentz as home room teacher we passed safely through the year. But during the summer four more succumbed to the marriage epidemic, leaving us only 20 in number when we entered the Junior Year. As Juniors our position and pride advanced no small degree. The high lights of the year included the Junior-Senior Banquet with a Dutch motif. Waiters and wait- resses from the Sophomore Class wore Dutch costumes. Mr. W. E. Horner was speaker and Edward Cox acted as toastmaster. The junior play was an item that will never be forgotten: a Negro minstrel in two acts with an afterpiece. All of us will remember removing the “make-up,” especially Edward Cox who said he scrubbed with Old Dutch Cleanser. Three dropped from our class roll. Seniors at last!!! By this time we were so matured and so much changed that it would be difficult to recognize the members as the same who entered high school four years previously. We seemed to view the scene with rose-colored spectacles since we knew our high school days were numbered. We started the year under the guidance of _ Miss Anne Mulkey, but in about three weeks she left us to be married. Mrs. J. J. Lentz took upon her shoulders the burdens of the highly sophisticated seniors now installed in the high school laboratory. Our big project was the publication of the first en- graved annual ever undertaken by Broadway High School. Of our first efforts in this direction we were proud. The senior play, “Lighthouse Nan,” in which all seniors took part either as directors or actors met with nominal success. Another member of cur class became eligible for membership in the Beta Club: Elizabeth Thomas. One classmate quit school, thus leaving 16 seniors to venture forth into the great unknown. The history ends in a burst of glory, with flowers, music, and congratulations—in short, graduation exercises; and thus our story closes with the well-known and ever popular happy ending. Mary FRANCES YARBOROUGH, Historian. Ten Years Hence —1959 As we look into the big Daily Tribune newspaper of 1959 for Who’s Who in Broad- way, we see the Reverend Edward Stevens listed as the beloved pastor of several churches in the vicinity. Singing regularly in his choir is Mary Frances Yarborough, a famous soprano. Next, we see Doctor Tillman Byrd, who has become the most respected Foot Specialist in this part of the South. He has developed his own cure known as “‘Byrd’s Foot Cure’? which has proved very effective. He has as his assistant an efficient as well as pretty nurse, Nellie Gray Lett. As we look for the name Griffin, we see General Glenn Griffin of the United States Army Air Force. His exploits and heroism are told far and near. He is flying high to the world of the future. The latest addition to the Broadway High School Faculty is Johnsie Lee Thomas, ip the new English and French teacher. We hear she believes in everyone making one grad e: an A. Elva Mae Thomas is operating the Broadway Beauty and Reducing Shoppe. Her 99 slogan is “Slim Curves. become famous for a new wave solution. Her partner is the glamorous Elizabeth Thomas who has just One of the most famous and respected poets of the times is Mary Cole, who some say rates with Longfellow. Edward Cox has just been presented a Silver Loving Cup for his success as the hunter of the season: total one rabbit, two skunks, and five oppossums. Animals are not so plentiful as they once were. Elbert Yarborough is listed as owner of the Naval Mechanical Garage which re- pairs naval radar ships. We see Frances Stewart starring in Hollywood and Vine’s big hit of the year, “Bucking Buckaroo,” written and produced by that famous author of North Carolina, Billy Boggs. And now, Everette Bradley, the most bashful member of the class of ’49 is seen sitting cozily by the fire counting the millions he has made on the stock market. Helen Kittrell gives competent advice to the lovelorn in the Daily Tribune. In her spare time she has written the top hit of the month, “Love At Last Sight.” Norine Whitfield is now secretary of Thomas’ Lumber Company and performs her duties with exactness and efficiency. But alas! this glimpse of 10 years hence is now concluded. Perhaps we will exceed our fondest dreams, for aren’t we the “masters of our fate and the captains of our souls’’?
