To lead this unusual group Mrs. Gladys Tarlln was chosen as sponsor. The class elected to assist her the following officers: Dorothy Gayer, president; ane Beach, rice-president, and Gloria Lodvlck, secretary and treasurer. The first activity of importance vas our invitation from the sophomores to participate in initiation—we were the unlucky victims. In order to repay the sophomores for thslr trouble of making a public scene of us ve gave a Crazy Bat1 party in their honor. This vas checked in our book as being a success. Text came the high school's Homecoming in vhlch we took part. Ve selected as our queen elect Areatha McOaaleh. The freshman of 1943 took part in all the school activities. They proudly held their places on the football and basketball squads, chorus, honor roll and the acquiring of scholas- tic letters.

BOD EMSVILER Journeyed off to the Sierra Desert and there, of all things discovered a gold alne. Like most prospectors he forgot about his personal appearance when he grew a beard and Mustache. Vhen the discovery of gold became boring he returned to his hone town where he started a kindergarten of his own. lach day we find Bod teaching those little tots, old fashioned folk dances or out gathering pnnkln seeds so that the children can Bake daisies. Because of her lows for mathematics VEHOIICA EKEITEL goes to Africa and Southern China to teach the nonkeys to count the coconut9. It has been Mentioned before that George Bonsfleld has found that there are Monkeys where coconut trees grow so she will not hare to transport coconuts to where the Monkeys are. Ve hope after the nonkles become educated, they don't start fighting over the coconuts. RALPH LEE follows In the footsteps of his ancestor, General Lee.

Her occupation le banding pigeons and then tracking them to see where they go and how long they live. She dose all this work in her own home so that she can tend to her housekeeping nore fully. ALBERT PEKAi law ante a fool proof mimeograph machine. Guaranteed not to get the fingers Inky. I'm sure Bud knows what he's doing sines he has had so much experience with Gruesome Gertie. Because every place two people are there Is always a quarrel so we find the only peace lowing member of the senior class moving out into the Mud Hills where DARRELL PETERSON will lire as a hermit. I'm sure Darrell will always have peace therm-—no quarrels. Who is that high strung circue performer? That's right it's MARC EL I IE SJOBLOM. She is well known for her tight rope performances. The cause of her success is her light weight. She le still the tame Marceline of the good old high school days. Vhen ehe gets with her old classmates she brings back old memories. ROBERTA STIXG with her quiet winning way and eveet smile becomes a child technician studying the ways of young children and their growth.

ANNA JANE WARD holds the coveted position as stenographer of the United States Supreme court taking dictation at 250 words a minute. Ve all know that ehe learned all there was to know about shorthand kx Carter county high school under the direction of Mrs. Jessie Callaghan. Ve find CLIDE VELC6 in the kitchen not ae a housewife but ae a dietician. Clyde will feed the proper diet because he knows what overeating, irregular eating, and rich foods did to him. It Is very thoughtful of Clyde to remember others and try to keep them from making the same mistake as he did. HiRLAB TATES decided that there was a much faster method of typing so he set to work to find this other way. He le happy to tell ue that he has succeeded and that he le now a professor of the Harvard University teaching typists to be the faeteet In the world and as a second subject he teaches the left-handere all those curlicue of thorthand. After the medicine man had told ue all that he could see that had happened to our friend and we were about ready to take our leave—feet, right before our eye our Indian medicine man disappeared in the alat from his brew. But to prove that he had really been there, there in the same spot set hie pot of boiling bones over the small campfire.

W§ initiated the freshman the second vesk of school before they became too veil acquainted with the ways of high school. This vas more en- joyable than the preceding year for us. We held a large part In Homecoming this year. We were well represented in the football game, pep rally and the crowning of the tyieen. June Beach being nominated as our elect. More than one sophomore held his place In contests. Several won honors in poetry contests and the scholastic honor awards. 37 Juniors stepped over the threshold of Carter county high school on September 7, 1946 to begin their first year as upper classmen. To lead this large and industrious group, Mrs. Gladys Tavlln again took the great respon- sibility. She was ably assisted by Bobby Cooper as president, Don Pulse, vic -presldent, Areatha MeCamiah, secretary and Eugene Schulte a s treasurer. Our class was well represented in sports this year. A large per cent of the basketball and football teams consisted of Junior boys. The girls held their places in basketball, soft- ball, badminton and volleyball. When Homecoming rolled around we chose Eleanor Rliley as our queen-elect. Try as we did to have her hold the honor of queen, the seniors von. We gladly upheld the traditions of giving a class play and prom. Our play aDon(t Take My Penny was presented on December 8 and turned out to be an all-around success. The proa was on April 26 and wae a gay formal affair. We received our class rings in Tsbruary. They are quite different from those of previous years, being oval shaped and of silver, yellow and rose gold. We again participated in all school events and tried to do our best in each. Another school year is drawing to a finish and we feel that we have accomplished a great deal. We look forward to our senior year as we ve been told it will be the most interesting of ell. '77?.
