[ 9 ] THE CLASS HISTORY I X September 1941, we entered the halls of Chatham High School. Perhaps we weren t as frightened as some Freshman classes ha ' e been, because the year before we had the opportunity to “sample” a high school day. Xe ’ertheless this experience helped very little, we were .scared to death. As our Freshman year advanced, we elected our class officers, with F. B. Watson I as President, Kitty Dehart as ’ice-President, and Billy Gatewood as Secretary and Treasurer. We elected two representatives to the Student Council and several of our members helped to organize the Hi-Y clubs. Others took active parts in the sports of the school and the various other clubs. Our .Sophomore year was perhaps the most confusing. Due to the situation of the war, the school athletics were limited and we started a new routine of Physical Education which was prescribed by the Go ernment. We lost several members of the faculty because of the war and thus ended the Sophomore year. Our Junior year was the happiest. Mr. Helms was replaced by Mr. Myers as principal. Dramatics was introduced into the school schedule and a number of our members took a very active part. A few of the class distinguished themseh es in the field of athletics. Some dances and parties were held as a part of our social activities. A few of the boys were called into the armed forces. After scraping up money, selling pop, sandwiches, and ice cream, we climaxed the year by enter- taining the Seniors with a banquet, at Hotel Chatham. At last we are .Seniors, with twenty-one of the original fifty-two Freshmen. Ve know that the .Senior Class of 1945 has faced a problem which few classes have had to face; our entire high school career has been under the influence of war. Despite this we spent our last year organizing the class and taking an activ ' e part in school activities. .-Ml of this occupied time but our main thoughts were with our annual The Ch.vt. On June 5, we graduate, feeling certain that our life has been enriched by every day that we spent at Chatham High School. We look to the future with the same hopes that each of us attain a success in life. Betty Gl. ss Oi.iver F. B. W.JiTSO.N 1 ’ THE LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT W E, the Senior Cilass of Clhatham His;h School, notwithstanding History I ’, Paradise Lost, and Assembly lectures, claim to be of sound mind, and in consideration of our approaching departure, do declare this to be our Last Will and Testament, and herein do bequeath the following properties, which have distinguished and endeared (?) us to current generations of C.H.S. To the faculty, we leav ' e a fond farewell, together with our deepest respect and gratitude; also our apologies for any wrongs which various members of our class may have inflicted upon them. To the Junior Class, we leave any priviliges which have been bestowed upon us as Seniors, also the duty and obligation of upholding the traditions of C.H.S. . ' Mso, certain Seniors bequeath to their unsuspecting friends the following properties: Marian Anderson leav ' es her mannequin walk to Mrs. Broaddus. The “Amos Athletic Ability” is left to Martha Moustain, who stops eating long enough to accept it. Kitty DeHart bestows her seat in Whitehead’s Pharmacy to anyone who shares her fondness for potato chips. Katheryn Easley leaves her sweet innocence to Johnnie Saunders, who doesn’t quite know what to do with it. Paul East leaves his Superman build to Onyx Crider. Ruth Fox leaves her soft speaking voice to Shirley McGhee, for the benefit of future members of the basketball teams who ride the bus to games. After one last dash down the hill, Billy Gatewood wills his green Ford to Ervis Hall, hoping he will find Danville as interesting as its former owner. Leroy Giles bequeaths the energy he’s been saving up all these years to Johnny Marilla. Calvin Greene, who has been running for the “Best Looking Senior” for the past four years, gives up and leaves. Julian Greene leaves Miss E. Motley to some deserving member of next year’s History I class. Jean Hylton, after one last platter of fried chicken, and being afraid that Jane Self might soon fade away, endows Jane with her appetite. Barbara Motley leaves her varied collection of “A” themes as a model for some aspiring Junior. J- T. Nuckols grins and leaves as silently as he came. Emma Jean Nuckols donates her blush to Ann Marion, who might learn its sublety. Betty Oliver leaves half of her “Most All Around-ness” to Jo Elmore. Louise Osborne leaves her ability to get along with people to Eleanor Motley. Ruby Parrish leaves her curls to Louise Redd, who giggles appreciatively. George Rison bestows his ability to crow like a rooster upon Mr. Kidd, who can now do most anything. In memory of those melodious out-of-town basketball trips, Henry Scruggs solemnly wills his version of “Sunshine” to Heath Light. After using her hefty biceps to mow down the last offender, .-Annette Simpson bestows her guarding technique upon Betty Mae Jones. Diora Spear leaves Roosevelt to the Democrats of Chatham and departs for other lands where dwell the Republicans. Margie Thomas leaves her sister Pat to take up where she left off. F. B. Watson leaves his intelligence, wisdom, and good sportsmanship to be divided among next year’s Seniors.

June 6, 1955, please. ... Is this Doctor Julian Green? .... Gee it’s nice to hear your voice again. This is Barbara. . . . Yes, that’s right; we finished high school together back in ’45. . . . Julian, I just read in the paper of your great discov ' ery and felt that I must call and con- gratulate you .... You really gave the world a great gift when you discovered the cure for poliomielitis. Me? Oh, I’m getting along just fine and I enjoy teaching Shakespearean English here at the ‘ ' Uni ’ersity of ’irginia for Women” tremend- ously. . . . Can you realize that it has been ten years since that night when we clutched firmly our newly earned diplomas and set out in a world of our own. I have made it a point to keep up with what the members of this group have been doing for the past ten years. . . . What have they been doing? Well: You already know from the newspapers that Fletcher B. Watson I ’ is being considered for membership to the “New World Organization”. However, at the present he is a member of the ’irginia Supreme Court. It’s good to know that Miss Motley’s History IV helped one of us anyway. George Rison has liv ' ed up to his nickname; he is chief “MOLL” exterminator for Pittsylvania County. Ruth Fox is now private secretary for W’estinghouse, after having taught commercial work at the Pan American for the past four years. I got a letter from Kathryn Easley just the other day. She tells me that she is quite happy with her husband and “Little Evie” on their dog farm which is situated in the outskirts of Richmond. Along with Kat’s letter was a clipping from the Times which gave an account of Diora Spear’s work as a missionary in Germany. Now when someone says Kathryn, Eva Mae Amos comes to mind. E ’a is a graduate nurse ot John Hopkins. Paul East went into the Air Corps the year that we graduated. He liked aviation so well that he stayed in after the war and is now a pilot for the Pan Ameri- can Air Lines. The fortune teller was right — Louise Osborne, having finished school, waited ten days and then took up the role of being a wife. However, she couldn’t bear giving up her job at WTitehead’s and is now co-owner of that prosperous firm. Marian .Anderson’s dreams came true. She is touring the World with Mr. .A. trailing close after her. Marion writes me that of all the places she has visited she likes the EAST better. You remember, we left Clyde “Henry” Scruggs behind when we finished school. He just couldn’t stand the thoughts of leaving dear ole C.H.S. so he is now assistant to the principal of our Alma Mater. Emma Jean Nuckols and Ruby Parrish are co-owners of an e.xquisite little antique shop at Villiamsburg, Virginia. Betty Oliver has proved herself a wizard in mathematics. She has just completed a theory which makes Logarithms as simple as adding 2 and 2. Billy Gatewood and his family are quite happy in their cute little cottage on Chatham Hall Hill. Billy gets his well earned income from being head dairyman of the Chatham Hall Dairy, Chatham, ’irginia. Kitty DeHart is president of the Parent-Teacher’s Association in Culpeper, Va. From all I hear Johnny, Jr., and Little Kitty are proving a joy to their deserving parents. Margie Thomas’ interest in Home Economics helped her to choose her vocation. She is a dietition at Duke University. [ 13 ] Leroy Giles distinsruished himself in the Battle for Tokyo of Vorld War II. .- t the end of the war, he returned to civilian life and is working in the .Agriculture Experimental Station of Blacksburg. ell can you really believe it? .Annette Simpson is a chemist in New A ' ork City. Jean Hylton is working with the Veather Bureau raising little “Clouds”. Catch? By the way Julian, how is Calvin getting along with his Men’s Clothing .Store? I hear that he is literally raking in the dough. But really now, I must hang up. It has been swell to spend this short time reminiscing. “Days may come and days mav go. But old friendships always glow.” Goodbye. JuLiA.N Greene Barbara Motley WONDER WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF ... . Paul East wasn ' t handsome? Billy Gatewood couldn’y find the way to Danville? Leroy Giles was seen with a girl? Julian Green forgot to roll up his hair? Galvin Greene wasn’t such a man of the world? J. T. Nuckols expressed his opinion in class? George Rison wasn’t a “nice” wolf? Clyde .Scruggs wasn’t loved by everyone? F. B. Vatson I ’ washed his “T” shirt before a basketball game? Eva Mae .Amos fell in love? Marion .Anderson’s love life wasn’t a triangle? Kathryn Easley wasn’t always day dreaming about her sailor? Kitty DeHart didn’t swoon when she heard “.Stardust”? Ruth Fox didn’t have her soldier to worry about? Jean Hylton didn’t make funny noises in class? Barbara Motley lost her intelligence? Emma Jean Nuckols was seen jitterbugging at a dance? Louise Osborne wasn’t always busy? Betty Oliver lost her love of life? Ruby Parrish’s hair got straight? .Annette Simpson gave up without an argument? Diora .Spear didn’t always say, “Oh, for Pete’s sake”? Margie Thomas wasn’t always hungry? Jea.n Hylton Calvin Greene 14 iiiiiK mm Scholarship — Loyal tv — Achievement 1945— FLETCHER B.

After weeks of practice the starting five was chosen; Ri.son and Dalton, forwards; M. East, center; and Watson and Light, guards. George Rison was chosen captain and Clyde Scruggs, manager, with Ira Shelton as his assistant. In mid-season the team suffered a great loss by losing Marvin East, six-foot, two-inch center, to the armed forces. His position, however, was soon ably filled by Paul East. High scorers for the season were; George Rison, 213 points; F. B. 3 ' atson, 176; Marvin East, 77; Carson Dalton, 66; Heath Light, 57; Paul East, 55; Clyde Boswell, 54; Julian Greene, 43. The Demons were undefeated until their last game when they lost a thriller to Gretna High, 31-29, in the County Play-off. The final record of the Demons was sixteen victories against one loss. This is one of the best records ever achie ’ed by Chatham High in basketball. A great deal of the success of the team was due to the coaching of Tom Self, who built a strong team and took a great interest in it . To him we give our utmost appreciation and e ' erlasting friendship C.H.S. 78 Callands High 8 C.H.S. 46 Dan River High 11 C.H.S. 27 Gretna High 21 C.H.S. 38 Schoolfield High 23 C.H.S. 79 Callands High 1 1 C.H.S. 46 Brosville High 22 C.H.S. 76 Renan High 25 C.H.S. 35 Dan River High 20 C.H.S. 49 Renan High 37 C.H.S. 23 Schoolfield High 21 C.H.S. 27 Gretna High 19 C.H.S. 67 Brosville High 24 C.H.S. 39 Dan River High 10 C.H.S. 48 SpringGardenHigh 28 C.H.S. 32 South Boston High 21 C.H.S. 29 Gretna High 31 C.H.S. 45 South Boston High 13 GIRL’S BASKETBALL LADY DEMONS Preparations for the girls’ basketball team begun in November when we started practicing with ' irginia Shelhorse as our coach and Hollis Self as assistant. After a few weeks of hard practice the team was selected as follows: Forwards — Patsy Watlington (captain), Eva Amos, and Kathryn Easley. Guards — Jean Worsham, Joe Elmore, and Shirley McGhee. The substitutes were — Betty Jones. .Ann Marion, and Kitty DeHart. Watlington was high .scorer for the season with a total of 1 1 2 points. Easley was next with 108, .Amos with 56, DeHart with 3, and Jones, who was usually a substitute guard, made 2 points. .Although the Lady Demons won only four games out of twelve, the scores of the opponents were hard fought for and there was only one very bad defeat, which was with Brosville.

The prospects of a successful season were good, due to the return of Archer Riddle as catcher, Calvin Greene, veteran pitcher with three years of pre- vious experience. Nelson Motley, second base, James Davidson, shortstop, Carson Dalton, on third base, George RLson, left field, and F. B. Watson, right field. .Substitutes who saw action last year are Leory Giles, pitcher, Clyde Boswell, third base, Carsie Adams, fiirst base, and Franklin Marsh, outfield. These players are expected to give the regulars a race for positions. Several of last years squad are now in the Service — Orlando Crews, Jesse Sours, and Billy Clark. The team will be coached by the Rev. C. O. Kidd, who has turned out success- ful Chatham teams for the last two seasons. Calvin Greene was elected captain, and with his years of experience, he is expected to do some good work for the squad.
