Class History tl? What soever things are lovely, what so ever things are of good report, if there he any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. In September 1942, our ambitious and enthus- iastic senior class of today, began life as any other freshman class would, with a feeling of ignorance and awe upon entering the sacred realms of Brook- port High. However, the upper classmen soon made us feel at home and we set out to make a name for ourselves. Our forty-three members were guided by Mr. Garrett and the following officers: Aubrey Henley, President, Billy Reynolds, Secretary-Treasurer. The sophomore year began with thirty-two mem- bers and Mr. Giltner for adviser. Class officers: Nancy Anne Barton, Presidentg Tony Grace, Vice- President, Willie Mae Lester, Secretaryg Edwin Rus- sell, Treasurer. We regarded our sophomore year with pride be- cause of successful activities, parties, one act play, Father Time, outstanding honors in Softball, Bas- ketball, Magazine Drive, and the Fourth War Loan. By popular votes of students, Nancy Barton and Billy Reynolds were selected the best looking in high school. Jolly Juniors, yes, twenty-eight achieved such an honor! Billy Reynolds volunteered for Army Air Corps, and Russell Kerr enlisted in the Maritime Service. Miss Jones was our able adviser. Class officers: Regina Waynick, Presidentg Margie Lee Faughn, Vice-Presidentg Vera Gower, Secretary, Virginia Neely, Treasurer. As we grew and progressed in high school, we as- sumed more responsibilities. One very successful event was our play, Leave It To Grandma, which was capably directed by Mrs. Barton. Our boys were winners in the Inter-Class Tournament which was c l P. G. Gower's last game before answering Uncle Sam's call. Then followed the enjoyable and beautiful ban- quet with An Old Fashion Garden theme. With the completion of these activities, we were reminded that only one more year remained for us in the realm of high school for pleasure and accomplishments. Dignified Seniors-years have we been dreaming of such a title! Class officers: Johnny Bobo, Jr., Presidentg Tony Grace, Vice-President, Dorothy An- gelly, Secretaryg Vera Gower, Treasurerf Mrs. Barton was our splendid adviser who called us her pride and joy class. To us, this has been the most enjoyable year of our lives. Our class was represented in Glee Club, Beta Club, Student Council, Home Makers' Club, Basketball, and Softball. The Whole Truth was considered by many as Brookport's best play, records showed the greatest cash receipts. We appreciated senior privileges granted, especial- ly did we enjoy Spellbound and The Bells of St. Mary's , which portrayed a wonderful lesson of faith and prayer. As we look back on our senior year, we do not feel that our efforts have been futile, however we realize that we failed to grasp many opportunities offered us. Although we feel sadness in leaving our Alma Mater we know that this parting must be the beginning of life's greatest adventure. Where ever we may go, Whatever we may do, To our class motto May we always he true. Unless God be with us, all labor is in vain MARGIE LEE FAUGHN, Historian MILDRED KAYLOR, Statistician Page fourteen V
