Stt iMmoriam Euline Thomason Born — April 2, 1925 Died — December 25, 1940 LOOK FORWARD CLASS OF ' 42 Look forward, ever! Oh Senior Class With aim that’s staunch and true, Our country needs much from boys and girls Who cherish our red, white, and blue. Our colors here are green and white But we must bear in mind, That as we love and honor these Old Glory must lead the line. Our school days here have been happy ones Memories that will never pass, As we step out to greet new life Let ' s each be an honor to the Senior Class. Our teachers here have helped us much To carry through our high school years, That with firm foundation, we may step forth To be outstanding, no room for fears. We all regret to leave the past Our friends that are dear and kind. But as old destiny beckons, we ll answer the call With a free and willing mind. So goodbye dear school and those we love And teachers kind and true, We’ve won the fight, we ' re stepping out The Class of Lorty-two. — by Anycf. Hare Page T iVenty

CLASS PROPHECY 280J, Please. Hello Cobina. This is Brenda. I just thought I would call you up for a little while and tell you about the little reunion we had at my house last night. It was a reunion of my graduating class of ' 42; that has been so long ago I doubt whether you can remember it or not. Everyone was very glad to be reunited once more. I want to tell you about them. In Washington we find Janie Goodnight. Hazel Felker. Margaret Biles, and Torrence Easley doing successful work for the government. Billy Robertson has made it possible to have Student Government in all schools. He is the National President and is immensely enjoying his work. Calvin Frye has lately also become interested in this work and is a big help to Billy. Anna Ruth Scott has become one of the best known teachers of her time. Also following this profession we have Hilda Edmiston, Geneva Davis, Lorice Fogleman. Gladys Patterson. Frances Widenhouse, and ' ' Lib Wiseman. A good many of the boys turned out to some division of the Army. Among the Air Cadets we find. Bill Byrd. Bill Cross. J. R. Ewing, Clark Gardner, Harvey Goodnight, Hartselle Hargette.
