Page T ivo DEDICATION Never before in the history of J . W. Cannon High School have we sent to the battlefield students and faculty members of our school. Since the beginning of this World War . some of them have been reported missing, some prisoners of war. some wounded, and some deceased. In grateful memory of the courage and sacrifice of these, the valiant, we, the class of 1943 , dedicate this Senior Edition. Page Three SENIOR CLASS HISTORY By Glenn Elizabeth Tucker The past rises dimly before me like a dream. The class of 43 is once more beginning its struggle in a new world known as “high school. The vision becomes clearer and I see a September day in 1939. Three hundred and ninety-four bewildered “Freshmen are entering high school. They are very timid and shy in the presence of upper-classmen. Mrs. Fred Dennis, Misses Crystal Henderson, Frances Sowell, Mildred Hutchinson, and Messrs. Edward Russell, Donald Dunlop, Harry Sanders, Lester McCarn, and Norman Miller and also the principal. Mr. John L. Dupree, are ready to instruct and aid them in every way. Their first duty is to elect their class officers: Charles Misenheimer, Presi- dent: Margaret Helms, Vice-President: Elsie V. Daves, Secretary; and Annie Ruth Brinkley, Treasurer. The vision rapidly passes to the Sophomore year. The struggle has been hard, and there are only two hundred and seventy-fiv e left from the original class. The teachers this year are Mrs. Robert Mooring, Mrs. J. D. Taylor, Misses Nellie Alexander. Flora Gilchrist, and Messrs. Daniel Hoyle, and Duron Beeler. Being Sophomores makes the work easier, and they again elect their class officers: Margaret Brooks, President: Charles Misenheimer, Vice- President: Elsie V. Daves, Secretary: and Bobby Walden, Treasurer. The Sophomore year is a short one and soon ends. In my dream the class is now the Junior class, entitled to all the pleasures and privileges of that position. Mrs. Thurman Frye, Mrs. Howard Innes, Mrs. W. B. Heyward, Mrs. Robert Mooring, and Miss Martha Hood are the instructors for this year. Mildred Payne is President of the class and Bobby Walden, Vice-President; Gearldme Braswell, Secretary; and Charles Ross, Treasurer. The first big highlight of the year is the Senior-Junior Prom in November. Next is the Junior play, “Professor, How Could You! directed by Mrs. W. B. Heyward. The final and biggest entertainment is the Junior- Senior Banquet, held at the Y. M. C. A. With all the activities the year seems to fly. In the year 1942 of the original class there are only one hundred and seventy left. The advisers this year are Misses Mary Elizabeth Cox, Amy Riser Harrington, Clara Lee McCombs, Mildred Hutchinson, Grace Frazier, and Mrs. Harry Jackson. The class officers are: Edward Messer, President; J. C. Barbee, Vice-President; Helen Deal, Secretary; and Robert Black, T reasurer. The Senior Class is very fortunate to have an addition this year which is the twelfth grade. Miss Lorraine Gray is the adviser for this group. Th is year is the grandest of all. As Seniors they are respected and admired by the underclassmen. The play, Booth Tarkington ' s “Seventeen,” directed by Miss Harrington, will long be remembered. The year is almost over, and all the Seniors are looking forward to Commencement. As my dream slowly begins to fade, I think of the future. There will be new worlds to conquer, but with the same spirit in which they conquered high school the Senior Class goes ever forward.

NO PICTURE: Robert Glenn Fowler Reid Lemly Hartsell Hargett Betty Jo Long Sarah Goodwin CLASS PROPHECY By Charles Misenheimer Heartaches, hatred, destruction, and war characterized the school year of 1943. Great powers and nations, pitting their might against each other, were fighting in a deadly struggle. Keen minds, understanding, and faith in God were the only assurances of a better world to come. That was 1 3 years ago. It seems only yesterday that our Senior class had given up its high school days forever, and had been scattered to all parts of the globe. Most of the boys joined the armed services of the United States, while the girls served as best ihey could anywhere they were needed. Yes, that was a long time ago. but tonight, with the world once more at peace and pro- gressing again under a normal civilization, that Senior class is having a big reunion at the Y. M. C. A. in Kannapolis. As we see all our old classmates come through the doors into our presence after years of separation, we can well be proud. Many notables, hard workers and people of distinction, have sprung from the class of 4 3. For instance: Ed Messer, our old class president, owns a chain of theaters that would fill 10 city blocks if placed side by side. He lists among his managers several former classmates, Ralph Towell, Albert Hartis and Milton Lowe. Listed among the famous doctors, we find Harold Hoke has quit butchering cows” and is now working on people. Sharing the spotlight with Dr. Hoke, we find Bill Abernathy, Bill Cross and Cardell Carter. Annie Ruth Brinkley stormed Hollywood with her flashing smile, and is now one of its greatest stars. Other stars are Montise Martin, Doris Moore and Betty Walters. Boys who reached the top in theatrical performances are Cardine Overcash, David Hunsucker, and Gerald Lew Lehr Lloyd. Audrey Cloninger and William Evans have opened a large art gallery together and both are regarded as excellent painters. In the world of sports J. C. Honeycutt is playing pro-football with the Chicago Bears and his brother, Jason, along with Charles Gardner, is coaching at two large colleges. Reid Lemly is playing with the House of David baseball team and is very proud of his six-inch beard. The once Cannon high trio, composed of Margaret Brooks, Hilda Maulden and Margaret Helms, have done themselves proud singing with a big-time band and making trips to Hollywood. Among the politicians who never smoke anything but 5 0-cent cigars, we notice Ed Nimer. Marvin Benton, Clifford Childers, Carl Cline, and Phil Howell. Joe Honeycutt has his own dance band featuring Charles Misenheimer, James L. Bost, and Wade Allen. Other music-makers are Carlvin Robinson and Betty Puntch. The greatest magician since the death of Houdini presents itself in the form of Charles Redman. His special trick is sawing Alfred Morgan in half. Girls who took the fatal step, marriage, and settled down early are, Shine Pinner, Frances Morton, Laura Bell Norton, Faye Nell Overcash and Polly Simpson. Frank Litaker has become one of the strongest men in the world. He pals around with Arthur Pethel and Mack Earnhardt, who are radio experts. Boys who liked the armed forces so well that they decided upon it for their life ' s work are: Robert Fowler, Glenn Bost, Richard Dixon. Carl Duncan, Norris Keller and Ruben Meeks. Geraldine Braswell, Margie Dancy and Virginia Perry are library workers. All excel in this field.
