The old bank building, located bclor; the town where tho present olcracntary school building now stands, was con- verted into a school building and tho school opened for its first session in 1S01 under the principalship of r. i!r. Hart. The school at this tine offered work on the two-year level. Hr. Hart died before the oponing of tho session 1902-03, and he was replaced by Hiss Lclin Holmes, a college trained woman who contributed much to the develop- ment of the school during its early years. In 1906 the High School Act was passed, making possible the appropriation of money to the high schools of the State, and Buchanan received for the first year an appropriation of §250,which was less than the. maximum appropriation. This and succeeding appropriations from tho State made possible for the school rapid growth, and by 1907-08 there was being offered four years of high school work. T-.e first graduating class under the four-year system consisted of two girls and one boy. The following year, 1910-11, the school graduated a class of five girls and one boy. The old bank building was Buchanan's only school building until 1916, when the county erected a large two-story brick building on the samo lot, at a cost of $20,000; Fifteen thousand dollars was borrowed from the Literary Fund, and the remaining five thousand was furnished by the County board and the citizens of Buchanan. The building was thought to be adequate for tho need of 3uchanan and vicinity for the next twenty-five years, but the advantage of the bettor graded school and high school as found in the town as compared with the country schools, and the advent of good roads increased tho enrollment of the Buchanan school until further provision had to bo made. In 1926 the County authorized a bond issue of two hundred and twenty-five thousand dollars for the orcction of additional buildings in the te' 17 nocdod localities of the county. Of this sun, fifteen thousand dollars was spent in 1927 on an additional modern brick building.

English Club,3,4, COCO A At € SENIOR CL .SS HISTORY The senior Class of '35-'36 bogan their struggle to obtain knowledge eleven years ago under the capable instruction of Hiss Emma Hartin. Not many of us wore accustomed to the hand of authority as it was now applied and at first slight- ly rebelled, .ftor a for months v c began to real- ize that this business of gotting an education wasn't all it was cracked up to be and we settled down to Fate in tho form of study. Host of us however enjoyed reading our Baby Ray books and making our first attempts at 'rcadin,1'ritin' and 'rithmctic.' The years rolled on and added to and sub- tracted from our noble army. ,t length tho fourth gr- dc was reached. y?c had gotten somewhere at lasti rith great pride we took our examinations and passed from the fourth grade, victorious. Tho ascefat became more and more difficult. To did not despair however but struggled through nine months of school every year until at last wo thought we were nearing the top, which to our youthful minds was the seventh grado. SThat a feel- ing of superiority we hadi re 1 magi nod v c were looked up to and held as examples to the lo-cr classes as we had previously rcv-_rcd the seventh graders. Then cr.mo commencement night, we received our diplomas and with hearts just a little saddened realized that thoy signified wo had anothor four years of harder striving before the top was rcachod. '.Cc accopcd the hand Fate had dealt us, how- ever, and entered high school, which at any rate was a long leap, just across the road. re passed from the Freshman year just a little more experienced and in a happier stato of mind thnh we had at tho beginning of the yoar. Our little array's happy stato of mind was re- stored at last when we became Sophomores. To thon sent out our squadron with adequate ammunition to make the lives of the Rats miserable. v.’e wero to havo honor and distinction in our class. '.To were to bo the first class of Sophomores to presont a play. ’,7c selected Patty Ilakcs Things Hum for our plc.y. Then on the day beforo the play our plans wore scattorcd to the four winds. ,n accident occurod in which some of our classmates wore in- jured. This threw a shadow over the remainder of the year. As Juniors our army began to get in good condition and take form, y.'c presented the play, The Path Across the Hill which turned out to be a big success. ,r,c attended many socials preeminent among thorn tho Annual Junior and Senior B-anquct. 77o marched into the Senior year with happy hearts and came face to face with the realization that tho top was no whero in sight, that tho top would be the last thing in life we ‘would roach. However wo wore on a littlo hill, from which we could command a good view of tho past and formulate plans for the futuro. Tho army nurabor thirty-two in comparison to tho original fifty-throe. Our Senior year was saddened by the loss of a dear comrade and schoolmate V. ry Ellon Dickson who had joined our ranks in the second grado. All of us miss llary Ellen and memories of her will ever carry with us. Tho play, ’•V.crcs' Grandma was given by the Seniors and was said to be excellent by those who saw it. T:ic officers chosen by the class wero: President llargarct S uonk Vico president Frances Hodges Sec. Treas. Hcrcer Lackland Reporter Virginia. S a.rtz All of whom served tho class well. The Seniors have taken an active part in extra curricular activities. V.'c have furnished the Glee Club, E skctball teams, Literary Clubs and various ofiher organizations with members.

PROPHECY OF CLASS OF 1936 It is 1246 and aeroplanes have become as plentiful as second-hand Fords. After teaching for a few years-just long enough to let my high school pals bccomo famous in aviation wo were married and traveled a lot by plane. On one of our trans-continental trips I was determined to look up all my classmates. After I left N.Y. where for a few years i I had been teaching the younger generation of the ways of the wickad world, the first thing that caomo to my attention was a catalog lying close by. Ford's Dramatic Institution was on the cover. Remembering ray Senior home room teacher I picked up the catalog and was very much pleased to sec that Mrs. Ford had established a very prominent dramatic school in Virginia. There was a radio in our plane that we enjoyed a.s wo traveled. I turned it oni Hr. Marvin DcLong will now sing, Alone - said the announcer. I could not help thinking of the day's in Chemistry when llarvin declared he would some day make Margaret Shank his wife. Poor llarvin, for now Margaret is now happily marriedJ Her only ambition was to be tho wife of a famous orchestra loader. He landed. I spied a sign. Today an exhibition of Nancy Erewbakehs famous paintings. Includes poses of her models Thelma Karnes ana COCO A)Ai £ Jacque sizer. Down the street on top of a big factory I saw, Popless Chewing Guu - I thought, if only Esther '.Villianson would chew that kind. I entered the building and behold there was Esther chewing to her hearts content and not making a sound. She told me she was doing well in the Gun business and that ray pal Frances '.Vest was help- ing her to a groat extent by directing her popular band over C.B.S. on the Poplcss Chewing Gum radio hour. One day I was visiting in California and how surprising to sec Frances Hodges and Elizabeth Chapman. I didn't know until then that they were stars in Hollywood. They told me two raoro of our classmates, Louise Rycroft and Label Ayers were in California. They were very prominent lawyers. I didn't see thorn for I found there was too much rcd tape to unravel to enter their offices. On our way to Texas wc sighted a plane with a man repairing a wing. 7c came down and recognized the daring Ralph Lundy. He told us Ruby Best was pilot and owner of this fine plane and Virginia Hudson was the stewardess. Tncy were making a very important trip. Eunice Ferguson and Junior Garland were in route to Reno to obtain a divorce. 7c arrived in Texas to find Ilcrcor Lackland a happy man taming wild Broncos. Ho told us an old teacher and friend were visiting him. 7o entorod his homo to find Margaret McCulloch and a former Aggie teacher of E.K.S. They were recently m-rriod. Helen Stinnett and Mary Drcwbakor who were passing thru stopped to say hollo- both looked down-hearted. At once I thought I knew the reason, ''.‘hen we were Seniors I remembered them saying the happiest time of their lives ’ ould be when they had a cozy home and a husband. But instead Helen was teaching dancing and Mary a dress designer in Paris. 7c were next visiting in Roanoke. VTc found Hazel Breeden principal of Joffcrson high and Alice Craft and Elsie ‘ilcy members of the faculty. 3cing so near Buchanan I came Gcwn to in- quire about the remainding few of my classmates. I was told Dorothy 7atts and Selma .'right had a beauty parlor in loxington; Louis Eroughman was a member of the Supreme Court. Tnc greatest accomplishment of all was made COcoamm: JUMXOR POhtl Ab life flov;s on in a steady stream, The Juniors of '36 continue their pace To win their place of high and noble estoera In this world's rae.d and hazardous race With that fooling to conquer and to sorvo, To obtain knowledge that will spell success, And receive the praise the Juniors so well deserve Which will assure life long happiness. As in the past tho Juniors stood, As one large and great brotherhood. So why can't re continuo to do tho samo, With our high ambition, ideals and aim —Ruth Hayth. 0 HISTORY OF TH2 JUNIOR CLASS Our history will be a brief summary of the past ten years of our school life,which most of us have spent at Bucnanan High Scnool. In coming years it will serve to remind us of the ideals for which we have been striving. As we entered school we did not realize how much the futuro school years would moan to us. V g had a good beginning in school with Lliss IJartin as our first teacher. We spent seven years in the grades vory success- fully. Wo received our certificates from tno seventh grade with happy faces because wc knew wo would soon bo entering a greater school life, our High School .days. As wc began our Ff'cshraan year no chcariully took the hardships of the class. Hany things took place during the Freshman year which rill linger in our memory. With the guidance of our tcacher3 our class was lead through a pleasant year. In our sophomore year a numocr of our classmates wore missing, but others came to take their places. Out of the largo number of sophomores forty—two joined our Junior Class. V:'o entered this class resolved to do our best, which led to great success. . Four now members were added to our Junior Class. Now wo have a class of forty-six. ,r'o arc trying to be ambitious and take part in Uio various activities of tho school. Our success so far has boon with minimum difficul- ty. VTo do not regret having spent these past yorrs in school, as wo fool that wc rill be bettor prepared to meet the real problems of life, when wc arc honored as the graduates of '37. -V?c tho Juniors of '36.

This year the boys team made a very good record, but tiho girls team did nothing at which v e could point with pride so we won’t dwell on that, instead I will try to leave a few mistakes that 7 0 made, that if taken by future teams may help them to do better than we did for B.H.S Go and try when you are a Freshman and stick to it, some of our star players were subs for two years. Practice regularly and try for team work of individual glory. Cooperate with your coach, who is suppose to know the game bettor than you. Control your temper. Practice! PracticoJl PracticoUJ And then when you have followed all this advice, worked your hardest and lost, be ready to face it with a srnilo and look forward to the next gamo. —Virginia Swartz fi RlUPH Beat Looking Rosaue IA«ol Popular r e t ropuur O E) W.6.
