Having mastered the problems of high school, we now feel adequately prepared to face the real tests of life. Let’s reminisce for a while. We go back four short--too short --year s. It’s the fall of 1948. What do we see? Ah yes, one hundred and thirty uncertain freshmen going into China Grove High School. Mr. Carson, our principal, and our class sponsors helped us rid ourselves of that un¬ certain feeling in a hurry. I had the privilege of being our first class president. The next fall, 1949, we came back as sophmores and found our number had dropped to 102. Jerry Mauldin was elected class president. Mr. Carson again advised us very wisely. We were relatively inactive these first two years in high school but the next year, when we were juniors, things really started popping. Our ranks had again dropped very sharply to 95. We sponsored a magazine sale and the Hallowe’en Carnival in order to finance the Junior-Senior Banquet at which we entertained the Seniors in April. Our sponsors, Mrs. Bostian and Mrs. Smith, and principal, Mr. Carson, gave us very valuable advice. Again, I had the pleasure of being class president. This was a very successful year. In the fall of 1951 we entered China Grove High School to start our last year in high school. Our class had dwindled to 72. One of our boys, Charles Mecimore, decided to work for Uncle Sam, but in a few weeks, Robert McCluney came from Gastonia and joined our ranks to keep the number at 72. With priceless assistance from our sponsors, Mrs. Corriher and Mrs. Odell, and Mr. Carson, our principal, our Senior year was very successful also. Homer Drye, as president, led the activities this last year. Under the direction of Mrs. Smith we presented the Senior Play in the spring. A large group of the class went to Washington, D.C. for a few days in May, Then came Senior Privileges, Baccalaureate Services and Graduation. Now, out into the world to seek our fortunes. James Franklin Morton, Class Historian Class Prophecy + 31 One day not long ago I wen t into one of the drugstores down town to buy a magazine. I was looking over the stand trying to decide what to get. There were the comic books: WONDER WOMAN, SUPERMAN, DONALD DUCK, and many others. Then I looked at the magazines for the home: HOUSE BEAUTIFUL, BETTER HOMES AND GARDENS, GOOD HOUSEKEEPING and many more. Then my eye was caught on the rack where the books with fantastic stories were kept and this one nearly knocked me for a loop. It was: HOROSCOPE OF 1952 SENIORS OF CHINA GROVE HIGH SCHOOL. I had never seen a book like this so I reached for it instant¬ ly. Since I was a member of this classmates. Some of it seemed as if it would come true and other parts seemed too funny for words.
