CLASS HISTORY To each of us graduates of '49 our class history holds worlds of adventure, pleasures, romances, sorrow, and studies. To an outsider the recollections may seem of no consequence, yet to us who have toiled up the rocky way, our history looms as an important milestone in our life. In the fall of 1945, twenty-six excited students entered the halls of C. H. S. to begin their long study to prepare themselves for the future. Our Freshman year was spent mainly struggling to overcome the name “green freshies.” Oh, but we had lots of fun, too. During this year we selected our class motto, flower, and colors. The motto being The Key of Work Unlocks All Doors,” the flower, red roses, and the colors, blue and white. Our sponsor was Mr. Graves. One of our Freshmen, Reva Cragen, was elected as the carnival queen. Those that enrolled as Freshmen were, Earl Barr, Edgar Hinch, Bobby Moss, C. H. Weldy, Bobby Rhodes, Betty Benn, Donald Benn, Reva Cragen, Venita Ann Tiiler, Henry Howald, Lloyd Meyers, Betty Cole, Bobby Joe Palmer, Edgar Fulkerson, Marjorie Ledford, Ray Littell, Dottie Dunston, Earl McClintock, Betty Moomaw, W. A. Calhoun, Betty Horn, Pat Brothers, Jean Morman, Don Chenoweth, Patsie Huse, and Patsy Dalton. School closed and when it reopened we became Sophomores. Our enrollment this year was reduced to eighteen. We enjoyed many parties. Our sponsor was Mr. Graves. School closed and we lost the name of Sophomores forever. During our Junior year we lost one student leaving us a total of seventeen. We presented the Junior play entitled Ma Simpkins of Simpkinsville.” The theme for our Junior-Senior Banquet was “Ireland which was paid for by money acquired through the Junior Stand held at most of our home basketball games and during the Center Tournament. Our sponsor was Mr. Hart. Thus three of our years had fled by and we turned eager faces to our Senior year. This September all but one of our class members. Don Chenoweth who entered Kemper Military School, came back to the folds once more to finish their high school career. We welcomed Dorothy Klever, Doris Leake, and Marjorie Ledford as new members. Our class sponsor was Mr. Wilson. This year we pre- sented a Senior play entitled ' Just Ducky. Our last year was crammed with those difficult Senior activities which go with the Senior year. Undoubtedly we could sum up this year as one of the most enjoyable of the four fleeting years we have spent in attaining our high school education. It is with a somewhat saddened heart that we depart from the gay halls of dear old C. H. S. So our merry group of nineteen have braved the storms and at last we are ready to step into life's school. Thus our history does not stop with this brief sketch. It continues as long as we the graduates of 1949 live, only three of us, Pat Brothers, Jean Morman, and Bobby Rhodes, have traveled the long road of twelve years together at dear old C. H. S. 13
