CLASS HISTCRY In the summer of 1943,a happy, good looking, frightened, and proud group of boys and girls entered the first grade at Casar School. The first year Mrs. Ola Whisnant was our teacher. We learned some simple things, but mostly we got accustomed to going to school. When we entered the second grade we were pretty well in p1ace,and were under the direct- ion of Mrs. Marvin Eaker and Mrs. Joe Queen. In the third grade we felt even better to receive an arithmetic book. This year Mrs. W.H. Dodd and Miss Iva Ledbetter were our teachers. In the fourth grade Mrs. A.V. Nolan and Miss Beadie Melton were our teachers. This year we added even another book, Geography. We made the fifth grade successfully with Mrs. Geral- dine Christopher as our teacher. Mrs. Ada Warlick was our teacher in the sixth grade. We are proud to say she beat and drilled the parts of speech in our heads along with other choice bits of knowledge. Mrs. Selma Helton was our seventh grade teacher, and by this time we thought we knew it all. When we entered the eighth grade, Mr. Paul Willis was our teacher. We were his first home room class. Isuppose he was somewhat disappointed, but with these students from Moriah ---Christine Johnson, Ruth Ann Price, Betty Brackett, Mildred and Margie Richards, Mamie Queen, Kathleen Walker, Robert Shelton, and Beauford Hudson ---joining our class, we weren't too bad. When we received our certificates promoting us to high school from the eighth grade, we thought we were really grown up, all through with elementary stuff and ready for the first high school class. We entered high school under the sponsorship of Mr. W.E. Halyburton. We elected as our class officers: President, Don Devineyg Vice-President, Antha Brackettg Secretary, Betty Mc- Neelyg Treasurer, Jo Ann Cooke. This year we studied rather hard. It took us a while to get accustomed to changing classes every hour, but we soon got in the swing and learned the true feeling of being in high school. Miss Cleo Withrow was our sophomore sponsor. This was the year we really got off on the right foot. Due to the fact that Miss Withrow was green to what a home room in high school was like, we took advantage of it. She was a college teacher and certainly wasn't prepared for what she found in us. We got along very well on the whole I guess. We elected our class officers--- President, Don Devineyg Vice-President, Larry Costner, Secretary, Margie Brackettg Treasurer, Jo Ann Cooke. Miss Withrow was very good to us, especially at the Christmas Party. We felt bad about the way we had taken advantage of her. Mrs. Laura Gentry was our sponsor our Junior year. Our officers were: President, Larry Costnerg Vice-President, Antha Brackettg Secretary, Jo Ann Cooke, Treasurer, Betty McNeely,
