CLASS HISTORY It has been nearly four exciting years since we, the Senior Class, came to Carver. Our dreams, thoughts, wishes, and complicated ideas have developed into one glorious victory. Now that we clearly understand life as it really is, and think humbly of the future, we proudly follow the paths as those who have gone before us have trod. We came to Carver marveling at the new environment and trying to imagine what would become of us as we advanced to a greater degree in life. Though the journey has been tedious and oppressive, it seems as though we have struggled only a short period of time since we started out. It has been fun and has provided the majority of us with exciting experiences which served to impart knowledge to us and direct to us the way to man and womanhood. Our Freshman year was extremely exciting. We had many of our members par- ticipating in a variety of activities such as: the Glee Club, Dramatic Club, Thespian Society, football and basketball. In our Sophomore year, our class was well represented in most of the organizations and activities. We were represented in the Glee Club by: Melisande Bitting, Ludell Mack, David Venable, Mary Erving, Ella Tensley, and Ora Wright. Representing us in the Dramatic Club were: Josephine Carter, Margaret Amos, Andrew Hairston, and James Moore. In the Thespian Society: A. J. Hairston, Bettye Wilkins, Barbara Carter, Ora L. Wright, James Moore, and Margaret Amos. In basketball: Delrio Dark and Mattie Moses. In football: Shepard Carpenter, Leroy Moore, David Venable, Vincent Settles, and Thomas Jones. In our Junior year everyone was looking forward to the Junior-Senior prom. We were well represented in each of the organizations and each of the activities on the campus. Miss Carver High” came from our class and we were all proud of her. Our Junior class officers were: President, Ora Lee Wright; Secretary, Lucy Norment; and Treasurer, Fred Anthony. We were proud of Ora L. Wright for displaying her leadership and generosity with us. It is inconceivable for any one of us to tell, or give any conception of the career of this class, but I think I voice the sentiments of each and every one when I say it has been wonderful. To the Superintendent of the Forsyth County Schools, Mr. Brimley, I’d like to expess our gratitude. Thanks for being so sympathetic as to realize that a good, sound institution is necessary for the development of well-trained minds, and for making it possible for us to obtain the advantage of this New Carver Consolidated School. Thanks again, Mr. Brimley, we are indeed grateful to you. To our principal, Mr. Hill, I’d like to say thanks. Thanks for guiding us right when we were going wrong. Thanks for being just as you were when we thought you were erroneous and thoughtless of our feelings and desires, for we understand now that if it had not been ' , for that strong, obstinate guiding hand which you extended us, many of us would have long before fallen by the wayside. Again, in behalf of myself and the class as a whole, I say thanks. To our individual instructors, who have tried to see each one of us as an individual, and who have shared our uneasinesses and disappointments as well as joys and excite- ments, I wish to say thanks to you every one. In closing, it is my gratification in wishing those who follow us out of the portals of this Dear Carver School greater, better, and more successful high school days. Georgia Conrad
