Slensk—= SS AI Pee OneGy Time has flown since that sad, yet welcomed day when the Senior Class marched up to receive their diplomas from Mr. 3. M. Thomas, who was principal of good old Ceres High. Let's see, that was in 1949 and it is now 1969. Yes, time has flown since then and it seems almost a dream now, As I sit here, I recall how things used to be and realize that a great change has come over the world and especially the little school loc ated on the banks of North Holston, back in the old Home town, known to us as Ceres. The school has enlarged and GEE! they have that modern gym nasium we pleaded so earnestly for, but didn't get. All of us envy the students now. The school now has a larger library and talking a bout good chow, try the new little Cafeteria run by Margeurite Creggar. Good work, Margeurite, keep it up. th ae SS The Senior Class as a whole is really doing well in the vocational field. Marvin Cox, is now owner of the Ceres Airport and he has as his assistant, Zimmie Wilson, — —— — le x Frances Catron seems to be making a great success as a secretary. Hey! not so close to the boss. Mildred Bruce has just finished spanking 2 children from the Commercial Department. From all reports she must be teaching them something, Nannie Hayton has made a real success at nursing. She is now head nurse at the Kegly Hos- pital located at Bland, Virginia, Yes, the class of '49 has made a success and I'm sure each member owes his success to cC. H.S. and the teachers who worked patiently with them,
