ROBERSO N, SAMUEL Not Shown CLASS PROPHECY 3 Longview Gardens Augusta, Maine September IO, 1960 Dear Mrs . Graves, My former fellow classmates actually demanded that I write you at once, as we are so eager that you know exactly how we are faring. On August 31 we had a wonderful class reunion, and incidentally, I was the hostess. We regretted terribly that you could- n't share those pleasant moments. We missed you awfully and wished so many times that you could have been there. l must admit, everything was lovely. We have, believe it or not, six registered nurses scattered about the states: Hattie Staton, at the Naval Air Base Hospital, San Diego, California, Helen Artis, Lincoln Hospital, Durham, Reba Laughinghouse, St. Agnes, Raleigh, Martha Reid, sur- gical nurse, Walter Reid Hospital, Washington, D. C., Vernestine Sherrod, supervisor, State Hospital for Crippled Children, Gastonia, and Eva Gallop, recently named head nurse at the mental institution at Durham . Pearlie Tumage seems to be enioy- ing her work as a practical nurse at the Women's Hospital in New York. You will be surprised to know that Jamesetta Daggs came two days early in order to be on time. You will not be surprised, I am sure, to hear that she, Francene Carr, and Gloria Outterbridge are commerce teachers. Jamesetta teaches at Tennessee State College, Francene at Kittrell Junior College, and Gloria at Stephens-Lee High School in Asheville. Alethea Frizzell and Zack Reddick both are on the Bennett College faculty--Alethea is an instructor in home economics, and Zack heads the physical education department. , Lillian Artis, after a successful concert season, is again studying at the Paris Conservatory. She was unable to attend the reunion because she sailed for Paris, August IO, to begin the winter term, but Charlie--Charlie Moore, that is--told us about her. Incidentally, Charlie's an agriculture teacher at Booker T. Washington High School, Atlanta, Georgia. Well, you can't beat Bill Moorningl He leads an outstanding-orchestra called Bill's Boys. He is known as Sac's Prince, and he's wonderful, Mrs. Graves. Just recently he accompanied Peggy King in one of her shows. Peggy is strictly topsl Her latest release is Don't Let Me GOI Marian Payton, Acolia Moore, and Sam uel Johnson are thgpe of the finest social workers in our country. Marian and Samuel are with the Cook County Department of Public Welfare in Chicago, and Acol ia is a case worker in Ayden. I hear Acolia's doing wonders' for the place. Remember how Lillie Jones and Carol Murrell always had so much to tell each other at school? Well, now, as laboratory technicians, they're telling it to the test tubes at the Bureau of Standards in Washington, and I understand their work is really talking for them now. Arthur Coward and Lonnie Norcott graduated from the Kerpel School of Dental Technology in I958, and they now operate a successful dental laboratory in Washington, D. C. Lillie Newton stunned us all with her gorgeous clothes! She is a fabulous model for Sak's Fifth Avenue. Lynwood Parker and Harvey Williams own and operate the successful Parker and Williams Construction Company in Dover, Delaware. Milton Jenkins and James Baker are their most valuable engineers. Milton and James attended the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Boston. Noah Langley, always the big business man of the class, you remember, is chairman of the Board of Directors for General Motors Corporation. Ella Garrett is his reliable secretary. Warren Outterbridge and Mary Chase are happily married and work together in a small town called Key Largo on the West Coast. Warren supervises an upholstery shop there. Lt. Col . Willie Williams was the center of attraction in his A i r F orce blue. He has decided to make the Air Force his career. Slow but sure Oscar Williams graduated from DeVry Technical Institute in Chicago five years ago and is already a depart- ment' foreman for General Electric in Schenectady, New York. Willie Powell, after serving in the Air Force, has been working with Oscar. James Sparkman, by the way, is president of the Radio and Television Appliance Company in Hartford, Connecticut. Sarah Wilcox Williams lyes, Charliej is chief dietician at Biltmore Hospital in Los Angles, California. Samuel Roberson was present. He is the chauffeur and bodyguard of the President of the United States! Joseph, Samuel's brother, is a very successful lawyer in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Dorothy Moore is his personal secretary. Everybody was glad to see James Floyd and Myrtle Streeter to catch up on the news from home. Floyd told me that he's designing orthopedic shoes. Myrtle must be doing well as an optometrist. We were so proud of them! By the way, Douglas Bowe is a resident surgeon at Freedman's Hospital in Washington, D. C. Novella Wallace, still as pert as ever, is secretary to Dr. Ralph Bunche. Helen Williams and Joyce Outlaw, always inseparable, work side by side in the Treasury Department in Washington. Incidentally, I'm Maude Walters. Can you believe that I own and direct a modern dance school here? I You can see, Mrs. Graves, that we're not merely existing but trying to amount to something in today's life. Sincerely. yours, Maude .

Mrs. M. G. Thompson and Mr. A. H. Thompson were our advisers. Class presidents for the sections were Noah Langley and Willie Ward. Our class queens for the year were Martha Weathington and Annie Thigpen. We engaged whole-heartedly in all activities of the school . Ten members of the freshman class of 1951 were represented in the glee club, twelve in the band, four in the dramatic club, six on the baseball team and eight on the football team. A signal honor came to our class when Martha Reid won the Typing Award. After surviving the novelty of being in high school, we found that, as sophomores, our school work demanded more attention. Mrs. S. L. Davenport and Mrs. O. B. Myers steered us safely through this year. Section presi- dents for the year were Noah Langley and James Floyd. Class queens were Eva Smith and Margie Carr. Lillie Jones and Lonnie Norcott brought distinction to the class when they won the first and second prizes for writing the best essay in the Child Accident Prevention Contest. Douglas Bowe, Charlie Moore and Oscar Williams were awarded World History prizes, and Lillian Artis and Acolia Moore shared the Biology Award. Lillian Artis also won a five-dollar prize for a piano solo in a school-wide talent show. We were actually iuniorsl Under the leadership of Miss E. L. McConnell and Mr. A. E. Murrell we achieved much. The sections organized as one class unit for business purposes with Sarah Wilcox as presid en t. Zeqlous and vigorous efforts to make the popularity contest a memorable one resulted in our winning, thus Eva Gallop, our contestant, became Miss Eppes High. Lillie Newton represented the class as Miss Homecoming. The Junior-Senior Prom was the most anticipated event that year. Our theme The Left Bank was unique, and we worked hard to make our prom one of the best in the history of the school lWe believe we didi. The junior year was not all fun. Determination and serious study in c l a ssroom and extra-curricular activities continued. As a result, additional honors came to members of our class: Carol Murrell won the Drama Award. Lillie Jones was awarded the French Prize. ln the Omega Talent Hunt, Martha Reid took first place and Willie Moorning won second. Mary Chase and Dorothy Moore were awarded second prizes in the District Typing Contest. Dorothy Moore brought additional honor when she won the second prize in the State Typing Contest. Lillie Jones and Douglas Bowe won the unusual distinction of being eligible to enter Fisk University as freshmen on the Ford Ac- celerated Program. Douglas entered Fisk as a freshman at the completion of his iunior year. With a high degree of satisfaction we advanced at last to our most coveted year--the senior year. Although we lost many of our classmates through the years, three newcomers were added. W ith heavier assignments we realized more than ever that serious study was necessary to attain our obiectives. Mrs. E. B. Graves was our adviser. Oscar Williams was elected president. Lillie Newton represented the class as both Miss Homecoming and Miss Eppes High. Martha Reid was again awarded first place in the Omega Talent Hunt. Jamesetta Daggs won first place in the District Typing Contest. Our greatest achievement this year was the publication of the first school annual, E Eppesonion. These four short high school years, resplendent with memories of pleasant associations, hard study, and wise counsel, we now realize, form the beginning of a real history that is ours to make--a history we hope will reflect credit to those who have helped make our grcaluation a success. ,- LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT We, the Senior Class of Eppes High School, of the city of Greenville, county of Pitt, and state of North Carolina, being of sound mind and memory, do hereby make, publish, and declare this to be our last will and testament, revoking any will or wills made by us. To our devoted parents, we leave our profound gratitude for their love and sacrifice. To our principal, Mr. W. H. Davenport, for his wise counsel and leadership, we leave our sincere apprecia- tion. To our teache rs, we leave our deep gratitude for the knowledge and guidance they have imparted to us through the years. To the iuniors, we leave our senior wisdom and dignity.
